Why would they do the first gameplay sequence in CG? That don't make no sense.

 

[Ominym]

Its funny because I am never serious but I like reading peoples reactions.

*posts something stupid."
"LOL I TROLL YOU"

 

[OnionPowder]

No way it looks anywhere near that at 60FPS on consoles. I'd even do a Knack avatar bet on it.

 

[Wishmaster92]

LoD will be nowhere near that good on consoles. Rocks appear out of thin air like 10ft in front of you on PS4 BF4

You can see pop-in at a distance in that gif

 

[Idba]

I honestly don't care if the game doesn't end up looking like that. The fact that we're getting AT-ATs, Y-Wings, X-Wings, etc is more than enough for me.

Solid netcode, no buggy and I'm sold. There's no way I'm pre-ordering though. Waiting for post-launch reviews and GAF impressions. Also keeping an eye on DLC/Season Pass bullshit.

There is going to be free Ep7 dlc

 

[MADGAME]

You can in other bf games, so it's safe to assume you can in this game to too

There are differences between this game and previous installments, so I think the question is valid

You can do that in Battlefield, I wouldn't see why couldn't in Battlefront.

Hi, Madgame!

SONY exclusive marketing rights!


ok trailer

I can't stop laughing.

 

[maquiladora]

No gameplay but I still loved it. Loved it.

 

[shinobi602]

Shinobi, I hate to call you out. But posting hype based tweets from people has only lead to trouble in the past.

The chance of the PS4 version looking like the trailer or the screenshots posted is very low for a lot of reasons.

There's nothing to "call out". I've been posting impressions from a lot of people just for posterity's sake. I didn't say I agree with this person or something. It's ok.

 

[schlongdog]

Current gen only gives me so much hope

 

[yazanov]

Not the practice, but the celebration of it, like its going to enhance the game.

Maybe it's because exclusive marketing usually follows with exclusive content similar to Destiny last year. The other console gets the short end of the stick.

 

[molnizzle]

please be real

 

[Pritchardo]

Its funny because I am never serious but I like reading peoples reactions. Just having fun.

so you openly admit you're a troll?

 

[Lingitiz]

It amuses me that this bothers people.

It's kind of like cheering for exclusive DLC.

 

[StoppedInTracks]

Xbox and PS have been doing this for years on multiplatform games. I don't get the sudden outrage?

You either do not understand his post or lie about not understanding it because, hey, you act exactly in the same shameful way the guy did.

 

[shadowsdarknes]

i dont think it bothers anyone, it just makes people laugh

:|

wtf is this?

What the fuck

??????

This is some pretty embarrassing shit right here.

Is this a first? Cheering for marketing rights holy shit

Please direct me to the laughter.

 

[LightofRohan]

Devs explicitly said they were targeting those visuals and made very conceivable effort to showcase that. Pre-rendered is pre-rendered whether it uses game assets or not.

Who said that? None of that was prerendered.

 

[Compsiox]

Pretty hot.

 

[Neff]

I'd rather they sacrifice attempts to get the game to 60fps and strive toward getting the detail and lighting as good as possible at 30. They've obviously constructed staggeringly accurate realtime assets for this game, but we're only going to see a fraction of that at 60fps.

 

[shadowsdarknes]

It's kind of like cheering for exclusive DLC.

Except nobody's fun is infringed!

 

[Genio88]

I bet that if you show this trailer to an avarage person he'd think that's a movie not a game

 

[yohan12]

So third is default but you can switch?

Yes

 

[Turkoop]

I have to see that gameplay ..

 

[jamsy]

So the lack of a single player mode is confirmed? Cause that would kinda suck...

I'd be okay with that for a single player mode.

But online? Nope. No way. 60 fps for multiplayer all day.
Once I'm balls deep in the action and 400 hours in, I don't care about asset quality.

With power comes great responsibility. You are unfortunately a public figure :/

People take the things you type seriously and as being real.

Yes

Did DICE talk about how they managed to solve all the problems of rasterized realtime rendering on a PS4 at 16.6 ms per frame?

 

[ALM5252]

So is this game gonna be Split screen like the original two? That's the deal breaker for me.

 

[Defuser]

The problem is that it maybe in-game footage but i'm damn sure it's not PS4/Xbone footage but PC footage.

 

[EhoaVash]

Men I hate when companies do this type of trailers

Show Some raw gameplay damn it .

Disappointed

 

[Reckless Onion]

Yes

Can you zoom in over the shoulder if you press L1/2?

 

[chubigans]

It's the same kind of single player campaign as previous Battlefront games.

Someone said there was splitscreen for two players, not sure where that info comes from.

 

[Slowdive]

There's no campaign but there are single player missions.

Please direct me to the laughter.

Follow the breadcrumbs.

 

[Huggers]

What do we know about this game? I'm totally out of the loop. It's not been on my radar at all. What sort of game is it? Online fps? Rogue Squadron type thing?

 

[shadowsdarknes]

Just click the arrow next to the quoted posts name and it'll take you right to the post quoted.

Yeah. Still no laughter. Perhaps show me?
My observation of it bothering people is a lot more accurate than laughter.

 

[Kayant]

what does sony have to do with it?

Marketing rights.

 

[bombshell]

So the lack of a single player mode is confirmed? Cause that would kinda suck...

No, there is a SP mode, it's just not a traditional story based campaign.

It's missions that can also be played in split-screen/online co-op.

 

[ArchedThunder]

There are also plenty of "video game" things you can see throughout the trailer. Explosions are 2D and aren't the highest res, particles are also not the highest res and clip through stuff and the waterfall was 2D. These little things give me hope that the game will look like this, just with lower IQ.

[Ramirez]

Is there any chance we see that 7 minute demo the press saw?

 

[MADGAME]

Yes

Thanks!! Another question - anything else you noticed that might be relevant but not evident from what we saw? Anything you didn't like?

 

[ArchedThunder]

Is there any chance we see that 7 minute demo the press saw?

Maybe at E3 on a newer build.

 

[bananafactory]

Let's be honest, even if they showed raw gameplay the "No way it will look that good" reaction would be the exact same.

The guy posted four celebration .gifs for Sony getting a marketing deal. I don't see why anyone aside from Sony's head of marketing that should give that much of a shit. I mean, it seems like he was more excited about the marketing deal than the trailer.

Now we're doing the thing where we explain something funny and it's not funny anymore.

Star Wars.

They probably got this footage on some beast PC with 20 Nvidia Titans in SLI

Any one expecting the actual game to be this crisp is delusional

Im sure it will look gorgeous, but not to the level that this video shows

Ah ok, guess that's not too bad. This is gonna be my first Battlefront game.

And it's funny that it bothers people.
