Is this the game that most of the "graphic's first" community of this forum can't distinguish from a Wii game in HD?
I don't think that there's a single game in the market with fur technology as advanced as this.

Given at the time of your post, you admitted to not even having the game in your hands, that's a pretty questionable quote right there.

Not to mention, when the game has next to nothing else going on (don't get me wrong, it's got beautiful colour and art style) as in poor textures, low poly counts etc, it's not hard to imagine being able to run a fur shader.

I have COD on PC and the fur looks terrible. It almost seems like a warp effect added to the dog and the fur moves around like water. So I'd be interested to see if the DK fur is any better (or if it can even be seen during gameplay and not just zoomed in scenes).

Anyway, may as well use the post for my first pics (all taken with default upload to FB).

I thought the post was just about the fur, I mean its obvious that the game in its entirety isn't technically impressive, but the fur is.

Yeah, besides the fur, I am really disappointed in the graphics. Art style is nice, fur is nice, and 60fps is nice, but there are low-res Wii-like assets all over the place, and upscaling to 1080p makes QUITE the blurry, jaggy look.

I haven't nearly beat the game yet, but I would say besides the fur and resolution, it looks very similar to DKCR on Wii.

I was mostly thinking about that Squaresoft waterstamp in the left corner does that always happen?

Seems so, thought it would only be with the HUD disabled, but those have them too, guessing the shots without it aren't taken with the share button.

^ Oops some people are missing their legs.. must've left when I was taking screenshots >.<

(L1 + Touch Pad Button to disable HUD - R3 to go to first-person mode.. for anyone who didn't know).

As far as graphics go for console games , Killzone is the current king, until Second Son comes out.

This is my first time in the thread, so if this discussion has been beaten to death, forgive me. I think Ryse is on par or a little better than Killzone in some areas (resolution aside), though from what I've seen of the city rendering in Killzone, it's absolutely gorgeous as well. Roommate has Killzone and I saw a later level with some gravity wells, and that was pretty, but rather gray-ish.

 

[burgerdog]

I have a ps4 and killzone(don't own an xbone)but from what I've seen of Ryse in this thread I would say that Ryse is the best looking next gen game.

Even though I can't understand a damn thing Yakuza is pretty awesome.

Having just finished a session on DKCR and then switching to TF, I can confirm it shits all over DKCR.

This looks familiar but I can't put my finger on it...

Sonic 4 Episode 2

Yakuza has a nice clean look and FFXIV has a nice art style.

Nothin like chasing after a guy through the streets in nothing but a banana hammock.

The combat is also a lot of fun.

Does this look better? This is running in game. I didn't use the special picture feature that's in the game.

Much better in my opinion.

Yep.

Not sure what the hates about, I think this game is beautiful.

 

[Mory Dunz]

Too many screeenshots. ^^

Not usually..

Bought it today, what a pretty game.

The amount of people doing that lately is semi becoming a problem. :/

 

[Krappadizzle]

Not sure many are actually reading the rules from the OP. PC screenshot thread has followed them pretty damn closely and here it's kinda all over the place.

 

[megabytecr]

Really surprised at how the final DKC TF screenshots look, Amazing!! You guys are making my wait for the game really hard!

It does look rather nice in person. Nothing outstanding, but it's pretty and very well animated. I'd describe it as 'alive'.

[Mory Dunz]

Sonic Lost World is really pretty. I think it fits a lot more than "realistic" Sonic to be honest.

More DKC TF:

Wow. This game is really pretty.
Maybe the issue was everytime graphics were brought up, the only thing that was posted was the beach level, which didn't seem represenative.

Loving the DK:TF pics. Makes a nice change from KZ (not dissin' KZ, but after 100+ pages it was all getting samey)

Orctrap! oh wait... still miss FFXI style spawn NMs... wish they would add spawn nms like that to FFXIV someday...

I didn't need to play the game to know it had better graphics that anything seen on the Wii, and if in different shots DK's fur was in different positions, then it wasn't weird to assume it had some physics related movement.

Now with the game in my hands I can without any doubt affirm that your claim about the game having nothing more than the fur is absolutely false. In terms of polygon count it trounces nearly anything I've seen on the Wii U and a lot of the "big guys" of the Xbox 360, and while the textures are designed to be watched from a certain distance, it's also true that the amount of assets that every single level of this game is able to display it's absolutely awesome.

 

[Timu]

I didn't know there was a demo, also this game looks insane.

I didn't either, lol. Just checked the demos section and it was there.

 

[Grinchy]

FF14 looks really nice on PS4. I took some shots but I haven't looked at them yet. There's probably nothing great in my folder yet but it's nice to see the screens in here.

 

[ReaperXL7]

Yakuza

FFXIV

I really hope that rumor about Sony pushing for Yakuza is true. The demo is great.

 

[Caayn]

Loving the DK:TF and the FFXIV shots in this thread. Love the colors

 

[Kalaidos]

Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze. (Apes may have been harmed in taking this photopraph.)

 

[IAmRandom31]

Good luck reading that from 4-6ft. away!

 

[Calmine]

All the screens of FFXIV are great but I can see it's the same problems PC has when using comfy couch and controller, hopefully they patch and improve it for PS4 release.
