Man, the contact hardening shadows in the first game are so awesome.
Shame they are missing from the sequel releases.

I made a huge mistake and just downloaded Minecraft a couple of days ago and now I'm completely addicted. But what kind of sorcery is this?! What texture pack is that!? The textures I downloaded along with the shaders looks pretty damn nice but those pics look on some next level shit.

The game is out already? Or is there some tricky way to unlock it early?
Not really.

When I do portraits, I run the games in portrait resolutions but with my monitor in landscape mode.
So for these shots, the game is running at 4200x5600 downsampled to 1080x1440 (I have a 2560x1440 monitor).
But that's for the sake of screenshots. It's not very easy to play games like that
Any change you'll upload the table? I'd like to get a closer look at Mercury Steams art
Just the usual VPN shenanigans. I was too bored to not do it.

VPN = Very Pirated Now
Jokes aside, anyone posting pics of pirated games is a dipshit that has no place on a game forum.

You can use a VPN to unlock as it came out in Japan concurrently with the Xbox One version. Would just wait though, you have to stay connected to the VPN and online or it doesn't seem to track achievements or let you take screenshots at all. Which is weird given other games I've played offline do. Of course, if you don't care about that stuff at all go for it!

What are the AA options? What kind of FPS are you getting?Saw that you already made a CE table for it, thanks!

Just using SMAA and seem to be getting 30FPS at 2560x1440. I haven't tried to unlock it. I did notice SMAA 2x though, so that's nice.
Downsampling or hardware AA is pretty much out of the question for me. This game runs far worse than much better looking games out there. I didn't check to see if SLI is working though.
I really like how the new GeDoSaTo film grain looks. Comparison without post FX. might need to increase the grain size a tad though, it looks great at 1920x1080.

The in-game cutscenes look great.

Have a spare alpha key if anyone is interested. It's a surprisingly enjoyable game.

Was thinking that maybe they'd move the release up to 12am eastern/9pm pacific, but it looks like they are sticking with that 9am pacific time schedule. Will be at work when it unlocks, hopefully will have time to play later this evening. Looking forward to tinkering, benchmarking and seeing visual improvements. Fwiw, previously played and enjoyed DR3 on the XB1.

Inspector 16xS + 4xSGSS (the slight blur works well with the foliage and lighting in this area, imo):
In-game maxed settings (the sharper and slightly more aliased image works well with the caves setting, imo):

In the 2013 e3 demo wasn't there a lot more zombies on screen when they showed this almost exact scene where I'm on the roof?

I think it is about the same , only in your screen they are more spread out .

Love this shot.
If you never played it, then sure go for it!
EDIT:
Forgot to say that "MMOGA" has a great deal right now for both games...and you get a "STEAM" key from them in 5 min. via e-mail!
Here's the link!

SMAA T2x not very impressive TBH(As I expected). For something called temporal AA it doesn't do very much at all for temporal aliasing that isn't thick geometry. Thin geometry, specular aliasing, and shading aliasing it does nothing for at all.
Even when downsampling there is quite an amount left. (And looking at the raw 1800p image there are a ton of geometric edges it misses too)
That said, there's no reason why such a cheap method shouldn't at least be the bare minimum for consoles. And it IS better than FXAA and SMAA 1x by a decent margin.
I think my standards are just skewed from having used SGSSAA for so many years now.

Oh FFS..... this game doesn't seem to apply affects properly at higher resolutions. First image is 2560x1440. 2nd is downsampled from 5120x2880.
