Support NeoGAF

I mean sure all pics get compressed, but why is it so pronounced in ACU?

Digital Foundry:

Assassin's Creed Unity runs in 900p across both consoles, sacrificing the raw clarity and additional sharpness of a native 1080p presentation for massively increased detail levels and vastly superior effects work. Anti-aliasing seems to be covered by a variant of FXAA, instead of the custom SMAA solution seen in Black Flag. As a result, the combination of the upscaled framebuffer and the anti-aliasing algorithm adds a considerable amount of blur to the image for a 900p game.

Emphasis is mine.

nvm.

I wonder if someone with a PS4 , a capture card and ACU can post some screens of the game

The screenshots I took are all from a capture card.

take moar please :\
game can look so beautiful in some of the screenshots, but something about it's IQ IN CONJUNCTION with the share feature produces ugly results.

Your screens are beautiful though, i am still convinced that a softer IQ is much better than an overly sharp picture with stuff falling apart as you move and pixels crawling everywhere.

Yes, the PS4 share exports are poor quality too.

[Melchiah]

It's not a real bug though

Yeah, and the newest model doesn't have the signature round shape as the classic and New Beetle.

#weneedpng

yes, but while it's still decent looking for most games, something with ACU IQ really doesn't get along with share function.

But yeah, we need higher quality captures with compression happening only when needed to upload to fb or wherever.

Gawd damn Unity is a blurry mess on consoles...does it at least run better now after getting some patches?

 

[Summer Haze]

I will give Ubisoft one thing, their lighting engine for this game is absolutely beautiful. Makes some areas look like a painting.

Spoiler

And oil painting, that is.

I think the patches so far only fixes bugs.

 

[DemonCleaner]

Looks really good, like the PC version of Far Cry 3.

i just booted up far cry 3 PC up for you. 1080p maxed unmodded:

This thread needs more GTA screens, folks!

I think both unity and fc4 look great. Will pick both eventually.

That is clean!!!

Just got TLOU Remastered for the first time so have had my first go with the photo mode. Amazing work by Naughty Dog. Game looks beautiful now.

gta v is proof tech alone doesnt make an amazing looking game.

Why? I think it looks pretty great.

Oh, wait, are you suggesting that the tech behind GTA5 isn't impressive?

Im not saying its bad, but its far from something like ryse or unity. The game looks amazing regardless. I hope gta 6 adopts pbr

 

[Ecto1]

Seems like a great game to go hunting for good screens. I love me some hudless, arty screens and its a bonus that gta lets you pack away your weapons, its ideal for those great environment only shots.

 

[valkyre]

These pictures are much cleaner thanks.

The difference with a capture card pics is immediately apparent. Dont know if the same applies to all games (cant think why it shouldnt) but damn those PS4 share button pics are awfully blurry.

More pics would be appreciated!

Despite bad reviews both on gaming sites and neogaf, it seems everyone playing ac:unity nowadays.

 

[VE3TRO]

Would love to see some Far Cry 4 shots on XB1 if anyone has it.

I believe current gen can do MUCH more, GTAV is still an updated last gen game after all.
It does look great to me though. I mean, i'm still much more impressed with GTAV's world than Infamous SS's.

 

[Caayn]

Why is there such an excessive amount of DOF in this shot?

From the OP:

3. No double posting. Rule 2 is pointless if you can spam. So you can't.

 

[valkyre]

Why is there such an excessive amount of DOF in this shot?

Thats how real cameras work when they focus on close objects, in this case, the gun.

I dont know if this happens in gameplay but if it does it problably is only for a second or so.

Perhaps it is using other means, such in game photo mode?

Whichever the case it is realistic how this looks.

Visually, probably, but with all the detail in GTA games this isn't a question of the tech inside anymore but of the budget; manpower and focus/direction. But it was like that on the last gen consoles already.
There will be better looking open world games than GTAV for sure on these consoles, but the games that will retain the detail and complexity of a GTA game will only come from Rockstar as this is their priority.

Holy crap!

Nice! Where is this exactly? Going to the Himalayan area early next year.

Totally agree about that.

And i believe only R* has the resources (and, above all, the confidence their game will be profitable) to live up to the bar they themselves set.

I can't wait to see what GTAVI looks like, I'm not expecting a GTA: SA -> GTAV leap, but something between that and GTAIV -> GTAV probably, which would still be huge.

Can't find the pictures to prove it, but along the Langtang Helambu - Gosainkunda trek in Nepal.

i just booted up far cry 3 PC up for you. 1080p maxed unmodded:

This game has not aged well at all.

 

[v1ncelis]

This game needs PM. Rockstar pls

 

[-griffy-]

Can you guys post what system your GTA V shots are on please?

 

[nbnt]

From what I can tell, photo mode enhances AA and shadows.
