Potential spoiler but I really like the screenshot so I'll only post the link.

This game is very inconsistent. Parts of it look great considering it's pretty much a last-gen open world RPG with fully dynamic lighting... others, not so much.

I find it very consistent... in the bad way

The main chars just dont belong to the rest of the game.

The textures hurt your eyes and grass just kill you, is a bit sad how they get worse gfx on each sequel of the XIII series.

So I tried this lighting mod. This is.... night time. Also known as day time with a blue tint. I know W3 nights are pretty bright but not THIS bright.

I also tried using the latest version and had to tweak the shit out of colors/lighting using ReShade to even want to test it further. In daytime some sandy and muddy roads shine very bright making it look very bad (hope it's not because of my monitor).

I would like to know do you guys prefer Arkham Knight with or without film grain?

I am playing it without and looking at the screenshots i think that majority of the ppl that are playing it or finished it don't use film grain.

I am asking because i think that it actually doesn't look bad in AK. It adds something for me, some atmosphere and in some areas it looks better than turned off. Also it looks to me like textures look little better too or maybe it's just hiding flaws?

Am i the only one?

Usually I go without film grain when given the option. It can look good in motion, but imo ruins screenshots.

I'm really digging this shot. Something about the symmetry, the casting shadows, being knocked on your ass and this thing about to start swinging for the fences.

I'm glad that's over. At times the game shines and is really great, at other times the buggy scripting leaves you run around in panic while your airfilters are almost depleted and some trigger isn't hit so you'll die.

You all need to get the appearances mod so that even if you're wearing an ugly peasant sweater, you can still look cool

Alternatively, you can snag the School of the Roach submod that only includes the TW2 armors. This submod simply replaces all the ugly peasant sweaters in the game with the very finest armors found in TW2.

This sounds awesome. I wonder if they can be combined.....

I'm finding myself really impressed by this screenshot. That looks really great for such an aged game.

thanks! i'm pretty blown away too, but it's still left to the whims of the game in terms of camera angle stuff, haha.
i really don't get why the freecam won't work for me- if it did, i'd be able to capture stuff a lot clearer (including the really silly faces the characters make)

also: i really gotta get a clear and good shot of the simmons t-rex monster, it's design is really really cool! but the freecam/camera trainer doesn't work during the fight..

Might be a bit random, but why does 60 fps in MGSV feel so much smoother than 85 fps in any other game?

 

[dgrdsv]

I feel like I won't be able to beat this game. It's just bad in how it handles the quests and the respawning of enemies.

There's also an issue with gamma which seems to not be captured correctly by AB but eh looks good enough.

Unless you've got an 85hz monitor, or set the refresh rate to 85hz, having a framerate that matches or evenly divides your refresh rate will look and feel smoother because every frame ideally gets the exact same amount of screen time (assuming even frametimes as well.)

I have one 85hz and one 120 hz, and on both screens, MGSV looks leagues smoother than any other game except if they're at a nice 120 fps and solid frametimes...

This is noticeable on the 120hz, but much more noticeable on the 85 hz

It has default, per object motion blur @ 60hz. Which would smooth it out vs a lot of other games which do not have it.

Auto-Reply, you use some sort of cheat tool to pause the game during those action shots, right? 'Cause I can't imagine taking such good shots playing normally haha.

You actually can't pause that game. Since his character is always in the center, maybe he's mashing the screenshot button during the action and going back and picking the best shots?

Yes...hated it for the same reason. One of the bright sparks at Ubisoft thought it would make the game so much more fun if the player was never allowed to feel any sense of achievement from clearing checkpoints.

This likely isn't how Auto-Reply is doing it, but in the past I've used Fraps or similar software to record lossless video at something like 5fps. Start recording right before the action, stop recording afterward. You can pull the lossless frame out of the video and do any resizing or post processing that's needed.

 

[Auto-Reply]

I'm not even taking screenshots conciously, I set FRAPS to 1 screenshot per second and then try to fight in a way that could end up in a somewhat good looking frame and so that the dof seperates the characters from the background if they blend together otherwise. No cheat engine camera manipulation or other tools.

The big downside to this, obviously you are limited in a lot of ways to set up shots and (on my machine) going higher than 1440p results in a bad framerate (jumping below 60) when using high quality dof, the game is easily playable at 4k and very good framerate without it otherwise. And my SSD speed is not high enough for 1 bmp a sec at 4k.

Also, a lot of waste to go through. After I've played for a couple of hours I look at my screenshotfolder and there are 10 gigs+ of 1440p bmp's to look over (1000+ pics), sometimes there is not one single good screenshot among them.

Obviously better shots with proper framing and composition can be made using tools like camera/FOV/timestop etc. but I didn't even look for it, I'm not in the mood for setting up screenshots as this can be very time consuming and the game is massive enough as it is, probably costs me 100 hours, I'm already 70 hours at it.

 

[Self_Destructive]

Great DS2 shots Auto-Reply. I'm loving them. Can't wait for some of the DS3 shots that will be posted here!

Cheers.

 

[Seyavesh]

well, i figured out what doesn't let the DMC4se camera trainer work for me and it's pretty bizarre + i don't really know how to fix it

while inside the game it doesn't read inputs to the trainer- i have to alt tab to the trainer to activate anything, and the freecam only works from ingame. i managed to lock the camera and try to work somethin' with that second shot but it's not quite the same.

does anyone know a fix for that kinda deal?

 

[Denton]

So I tried this lighting mod. This is.... night time. Also known as day time with a blue tint. I know W3 nights are pretty bright but not THIS bright.


Blegh

The area in and around Novigrad looks great with it. White Orchard as well. Skellige is interesting. Rest (Kaer Morhen, Velen, interiors) I do not like.

Been playing with AMM for about 2h now. The only things I've accomplished were to put on the full Viper outfit, add a knife and change to colour of my horse. 2h well spent.

Aw, I feel your pain. It's a lot of work without timestop. For some reason action shots always seem to look better when I'm in the moment lol and I think I've managed to get several good ones but the reality is I'm mostly disappointed when I see the actual results. Still I think you've managed to come up with some good ones so far.

Yea I wish it was more consistent. But, the parts that I do like, I like a lot. Think I'll keep it for this playthrough.

It may seem that way because they put so much effort into animations. They're all silky smooth with little to no compromises.

This game still looks nice, new game will be damn amazing .

I've been using that costume exclusively since I downloaded it. It fits so damn well with everything else.

It seriously spoils me. I want to play Warframe like that!

Man, I'm thinking about grabbing Unity on my next graphics card simply because I like the look of the game, not even for the gameplay:
--It's still one of the best-looking PC games.
--I like the art direction.
--I'm interested in the setting.

 

[TheRed]

I'd say do it. I still fire up Unity and run around with HUD off just to take in how beautiful it is, and am satisfied just with that.
