Support NeoGAF

Yeah, wish it did too. Then... we would know for certain.

Until then... doubt.

that tweet seems to avoid the term realtime really hard.

But for context... it would be the first Crytek game to do totally prerendered cinematics... and tha tis not necessarily there style.

whad??

 

[ironcreed]

I would say it's a cutscene pretty clearly with the stuff happening after that hit.

Well, if it is then it still looks right there with the gameplay footage to me.

 

[KKRT00]

Never noticed the guy hanging from the rampart on the left. Poor guy.

If You watch video from Cevat presentation closely, in a scene where hundred troops are going through the gate, one guy is thrown from the left wall and get spiked

--
Btw i recommend watching this trailer in slow motion [like 5 or 10 fps] in Your media player, it will show all the details You missed. Seriously do it now.

 

[dejan]

Wait a minute, are you guys saying Crytek hasn't unlearned how to do graphics? Well, I'll be darned.

 

[DemonCleaner]

I take in-engine and in-game to be two different things.

hell, even CG can be/has been called in-game.

 

[Metroid-Squadron]

I just noticed that characters are being reflected ever so slighty on the floor. If anyone could make an HD version of that gif it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm thinking "in-engine" similar to how everything in the Uncharted games and The Last of Us were "in-engine".

Yah, with the exception that there are no different models for the characters in Ryse.
So they say at least.

Well, that's what they say indeed...I'm having a hard time believing Marius is going to look exactly like this:

if I zoom in the camera to his face during gameplay.

 

[abadguy]

This freaking guy

I see two more goat head guys holing his buddy up. Guessing you show up just as they are about to take him out, Be cool if there is a chance for you to not get there in time, kind of like the part in Halo 3 in the Sierra level when the Brute is holding up a soldier about to kill him and you can either save him or not.

 

[Metroid-Squadron]

Since when does "in-game" means "CG"? You guys are grasping at straws.

 

[derFeef]

The model I can believe, the IQ and lighting maybe not. I think we should differentiate there.

Can't someone Bish this? "There's been a breach on NeoGaf" and have it change to Bish's avatar the second he gets the helmet on.

People are fond of this one so bigger!

 

[Muppet of a Man]

While this does look beautiful as a whole, you can see where the tradeoff was made in poly count: marius's body.

Much of the poly resources are naturally applied to the face and to the moveable pieces of armor. If you look at marius's elbows, you can see where geometry has been replaced with flat, non-deforming textures.

Still, I think the trade-off was worthwhile. It allowed them to do better animation in the face and armor and use better shaders. It makes the end result look more believable.

Thanks guys. You can see the reflections right below Marcus.

What I meant by "amped up": same GIF dimensions (640x360) but better image quality.

Marius is thinking in the background: Da fuq bro calm down, it aint dat serious.

But I love that tag.

..well, 'm not that know, but have been here since.. let me see, early this year, yeah, no probs.

I really hope this game can properly capture the scale of large-army combat. I'm afraid there may end up just being like one or two "big battle" set-pieces and that's it.

I'm hoping for some pretty large barbarian fights.

this is at half speed:

[giantsx6]

These gifs are awesome.

 

[twobear]

The guy on the right is Marius. Picture is from Midsomer Murders.

And in Alice:

Huh, I hadn't noticed that.

They've definitely rugged-ed him up a bit though, haha.

 

[charsace]

Depends on the scaling tech. But at lower resolutions there's less point going balls out on texture resolution, minute polygon detail etc. Because that stuff will have a touch of blur to it anyway, rendering that extreme texture detail rather pointless. But we'll have to wait and see.

What? Generally textures max out at 2 times the res of the rendering resolution before you start lose details, wasting resources as a result. Games that render at 900p are not losing details using 2048x2 res textures or even 4096x2 res textures.

The facial animation in this and Quantum Break are really nice. Xbox One seemingly has the lock on games with quality facial animation for the moment

 

[Wishmaster92]

The animations for this game sure have come a long way. Just about perfect now.

 

[FordGTGuy]

Have I been in this thread too long?

I think so man. No chin gap you're slipping up man

Remedy has really stepped up their game since Alan Wake , when it comes to faces that much is for sure.

 

[antitrop]

Ya, man, can't say I see the resemblance in that one.

It's no Major Nelson.

 

[Struct09]

The prettiest stabbing simulator I've ever seen

 

[CitizenCope]

I'm on the bandwagon also now and will probably pick it up day one but I have a real hard time believing that is gameplay when we've seen other clips look pretty janky.

 

[FordGTGuy]

Trying to find some good short scenes.

 

[Doffen]

I think this picture sums up my feeling regarding Alan Wake's facial animation:

 

[Wishmaster92]

But that was a gameplay section from the latest build. By "other clips" do you mean the combat vidoc? Because that was an older build.

So sharp elbows would not hit?
