Support NeoGAF

[BrainZEROX]

Looks fantastic. Sure it's more Uncharted but that's what I want. I'm always ready for innovation but there are some games I just want more about and, in this case, I want more Uncharted and, thank God, it looks like I'll get just that. Awesome.

Regarding the inevitable 60Hz debate, well... I don't care much. I never believed even ND would be able to sustain such a refresh rate with the target graphics they showed at E3. A rock solid 30 fps framerate like what we got in Infamous Second Son would easily make my day.

 

[DangerMouse]

that was a fantastic gameplay trailer

I love that it wasn't all explosions and set-pieces

I really appreciated the emphasis on vertical fighting, fucking up the stealth section and then managing to hide again

very impressive

Speaking of stealth, I loved the part where Drake was sneaking around under the foliage and then taking them out with stealth.

 

[Maninthemirror]

wow the other guy got wet from the water!!!!

 

[GnawtyDog]

Now we just need ND to release this demo video on their website at a crispy 1080p, 30 fps without stream artifacting and who knows what resolution that stream was.

Naughty Dog plz...

 

[kostacurtas]

I just saw the Gamersyde video and I just can't believe that this probably have better graphics than Ryse on the PC.

Absolutely stunning.

I took some screenshots from the Gamersyde video:

 

[jacksepticeye]

Seeing his hair change from the water is a great detail

 

[Cuyejo]

Environments give me a strong Uncharted 1 vibe, everybody do yourselves a favor and download the gamersyde HQ video so you can experience it in a decent quality.

Using Sony Vegas to adjust things slightly

Not perfect but you can see some of that white haze is gone off the image



It's nothing amazing, just a bit cleaner. See above

It's true, especially with his hair, the difference is very clear. Cool stuff.

 

[Maninthemirror]

This is a stunning shot

Chrome has been lagging as of recent when it came to loading gifs, and I'm not sure why.

I had to get a fucking GIF blocker to even read GAF pages, it would lag my whole page until everything was loaded.

I've been having this problem as well. I've been forced to use Safari to browse imgur lately. Its only started happening in the last month

 

[photogaz]

So was the e3 trailer cg then? Disappointed!

I don't like the lighting in this demo either! I might sound like a moaner but there's something wrong. Maybe druckman and strayley are finding it hard polishing Hennig's turd?

 

[Ramenman]

Seeing his hair change from the water is a great detail

And don't forget his clothes damn ! Real time pants-wetting !

Spoiler

just like me watching this.

[Jonm1010]

So will we probably get a direct feed full 1080hd capture of this demo eventually? One that is higher quality then the gamersyde video and doesnt have the slight washing out effect on the lighting?

 

[injurai]

i believe in ice team

 

[gribbles]

edit: wrong thread

 

[sujay]

downloaded the gamersyde copy, yeah the brightness/contrast levels are definitely off. noticeable immediately from the "sony computer entertainment presents" screen, where what should be black looks dark grey. adjusting brightness down from that screen in vlc makes the footage look a lot less flat.

 

[Lord Panda]

The game looks phenomenal. I'm having trouble understanding the disappointment that some people are having with the graphics.

Good question. So want.

 

[Mr Moose]

Looks amazing, can't wait.

LMAO

 

[Turin Turambar]

Well, that's a good downgrade.

 

[bananafactory]

Here's 3 more PNGs I took from the Gamersyde vid

 

[Keihart]

Fuck yea.

Better quality gif of that scene:

Can someone make a .gif of Drake at the very beginning, when he looks at the ocean, there is a moment where the wind makes ripples on the back of his shirt (please use Gamersyde footage). I've never seen anything so dynamic in my life, if you have I want an example.

Yeah, even in the action secuences you can see the ripples on the clothes change, the only other game that i have seen do this it's uncharted 3 where you could see the ripples on the back of Drake's tshirt change, but that had like only two states, this is way beyond...so much details..and the rope...and mud sliding...and hiding in bushes...and knife climbing..and stealth...it's going to be a hard wait indeed.

I came for .gifs, i left satisfied, thanks GAF.

The nose bleeding that I saw mentioned earlier in the thread.

 

[Confused Cheeseburger]

This shot is majestic. I wish someone could make a great quality screenshot. It's even more majestic of than that first world reveal of Zelda Wii U, it doesn't even look in game.

 

[Summer Haze]

Yeah, I'm really glad ND are focusing more on gameplay mechanics/improved level design & interactivity than OTT set-pieces and action. Although the game will undoubtedly have its fair share of those things, as expected, lol.

Chrome has been lagging as of recent when it came to loading gifs, and I'm not sure why.

I had to get a fucking GIF blocker to even read GAF pages, it would lag my whole page until everything was loaded.

Glad to know it's not just me. This thread and the PSX threads were a nightmare for me using Chrome. I'm gonna try Firefox and see if that's any better.

Anyone else having problems with pages which include a large amount of GIFs when using Google Chrome recently.

 

[roMonster]

For the new page, here're a bunch of the gifs from the last few dozen pages.

Hot damn.[/QUOTE]

[quote="Lord Error, post: 142089724"]I think it's safe to say that at the very least UC4 is the new kind of image quality on consoles. This leaves even I:SS pretty far behind, possibly on-part with The Order, which runs in lower res .

More PNGs from gamersyde video gameplay scenes:

These are some of the best graphics Ive ever seen.

 

[Seanspeed]

I just saw the Gamersyde video and I just can't believe that this probably have better graphics than Ryse on the PC.

Wouldn't say that. But Uncharted has a lot more going on, obviously. Ryse is a fairly limited space game.

So I think Uncharted is probably more impressive, but not quite better looking. Not far off, though.

 

[cameron]

Why does the gamersyde only having torrent it as a download option? I had to install uTorrent.

A direct download link may be available later. I don't have a bittorrent client installed, so I'll have to wait. ;_;

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Cloth ripple animations were in UC1 as well.

 

[sankt-Antonio]

Loved the new gameplay addition, that rope kill was sick. Verticality and stealth are also super great, plus Drake now has some real pro-climbing animations, the technique is nice in some places (footing etc.)

Nice.

 

[iJudged]

dat initial reveal hangover.

 

[Sectorseven]

Although we are still in the pre-alpha stage of development, everything you see in the video is in-game and in real-time running at 1080p and a stable 30hz.

I thought hz was refresh rate.

 

[bombshell]

Sweet mother of god, just watched the Gamersyde video of the demo.

Watching on twitch really destroys every detail.

 

[Fularu]

While it looks rather good, the heavy reliance on obvious set pieces makes me fear for an even worse outcome than UC3.

 

[Superflat]

Out of curiosity I took a few images and just applied auto-tone, auto-contrast, and auto-color via photoshop. Nothing else was done to them. Originals on the top, altered on the bottom :

Personally, I like the much softer look that the original game footage has.

 

[FATALITY]

These are some of the best graphics Ive ever seen.

nope you are wrong
it is on par with ps3

 

[XxRampage07xX]

The nose bleeding that I saw mentioned earlier in the thread.

I'm worried that this game will be rated M by the time it comes out/

 

[qa_engineer]

Alright so I just got done watching the video and now I can no longer see because it melted my face. Holy shit those graphics are insane. Naughty Dog done set the graphics bar on consoles once again.

 

[Keihart]

The nose bleeding that I saw mentioned earlier in the thread.

Seems like now even the ripples on the pants change, what are they doing to achieve that?
As i mentioned before , i only remeber seeing something similar on U3 , but it was way smaller scale.
Also the clothes getting wet, with each uncharted , the areas were getting smaller, now i cant distinguish specific areas for it, it seems to just get wet where it touches, awesome.

Edit:

yeah, but it seems a lot more nuanced now, it use to be like only one variation for only the back.

Wow, the "auto-corrected" shots look way better to me. The colours look better/more realistic, and the visuals themselves just look better too.

 

[The Cool One]

just imagine multiplayer on that map

I often do this with screens of games and the end result often looks better, which makes me wonder why devs make their games so monotone and drab looking at times. I'm all for theming through art style but the colour corrected shots look a lot more pleasing, not just browns and greens

EDIT: Especially that second shot, the details are a lot more defined too. But then again the contrasting isn't consistent if you did that and you get crushed shadows

 

[hydragonwarrior]

I think we're gonna have to wait till next gen for 60 FPS with Uncharted 4 level graphics...

 

[mysteriousmage09]

The lighting adapting perfectly is really impressive. Notice how his pants have no reflection from the lighting but as he pushes off when his clothes are wet, the lighting then is properly reflecting off them.

 

[B.O.O.M]

just imagine multiplayer on that map

MP maps were huge step up in UC3 compared to UC2 ..I can't wait to see how crazy it gets in this one

 

[Akahige]

Better quality gif of that scene:

So fluid.

 

[putarorex]

That looks pretty damn amazing. It seems like you could easily get going in the wrong direction though unless the camera was panning to show the player to right way to go.

 

[willywonka159]

Looks really good, not really surprised, though as Naughty Dog always delivers. Nonetheless, I'm super excited. That grapple/whip is really great-looking. Looks like it'll be fun to use. Hope it's not the last Uncharted from ND, but who knows. I'm glad they get free reign on what they make.

I was expecting it to look more vibrant. I don't know if the lighting is to blame or the fact that the video I saw wasn't direct feed and really compressed but the games colors looked pretty muted overall. The screencaps people are posting look more vibrant to me. I'm gonna have to check out the gamersyde video.

I thought the same thing. But it's not finished yet, and YouTube is pretty bad. Even though I had "1080p" selected, it was still sub-par quality. I definitely trust ND in what they are doing.

 

[Vire]

I weep for the set piece moments.
