This better be the oldgen version...

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Over 100K people tuned in to this countdown thinking it was the real reveal, this was a badly planned.

This countdown isn't even real gameplay lol

But if you read the message it clearly stated there would be a countdown at 9AM PST.

I get it but don't overreact. You'll live.

 

[Portugeezer]

i think we're looking at photomode

True, numbers at the bottom look like the lens photo mode stuff (I don't know).

 

[SLB1904]

Looks like a cross gen game. Fuck this shit already.

And what the FUCK is with this countdown. This was supposed to start at 12 EST.

State of play starts in 5 hours stop overreacting

 

[Trogdor1123]

It's the same backgrounds too?

Are we supposed to use the coordinates at the bottom for something?

 

[Salz01]

My initial thought when loading up the stream . “This looks like it’s on PS4 pro”

 

[Putonahappyface]

Loving the beautiful cross gen cloud stuttering.

 

[Cre8]

If you watch this for 5hrs, Sony should send you a copy of HFW for free.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Hmmm, that was a machine noise...

 

[balls of snow]

Lol is this all you got Sony..
Shame.

 

[jonnyp]

True, numbers at the bottom look like the lens photo mode stuff (I don't know).

Probably just coordinates where it is located on the map.

 

[Tommi84]

Vistas shown. In-engine only, not real gameplay

 

[PuffyCan]

This is from the first game right? or at least the ps4 version because it looks exactly like the first game

 

[Trogdor1123]

Machines are moving in the backgrounds. Maybe we are supposed to spot something?

 

[SlimySnake]

wow this area looks last gen as fuck.

god fucking dammit.

 

[Putonahappyface]

If you watch this for 5hrs, Sony should send you a copy of HFW for free.

Yeah bollocks I'll watch tomorrow when someone uploads a 4k hdr 60fps version.

 

[longdi]

it looks stuttery and upscaled AF.

so much for that trailer, or the talks about flying because part 1 couldnt do...

 

[Represent.]

I was hyped for Horizon 2 to be THE next gen game early on.
Right away it looks like a PS4 Pro game.

Cross gen really is disgusting. All of you supporting it or who dont see the issue are lost.

 

[SlimySnake]

Vistas shown. In-engine only, not real gameplay

this looks ugly as fuck after the UE5 demo last night. dear god. lets hope this is PS4 footage.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Amazing how many people are losing their minds when it clearly states:

Tune in from 9AM Pacific Time for a uniquely crafted countdown to the main event - starting at 2PM PT.

We have 5 more hours people before the show really starts

 

[Wandering Leopard]

Machines are moving in the backgrounds. Maybe we are supposed to spot something?

Don't overthink it, it's just a scenic countdown.

 

[THEAP99]

Vistas shown. In-engine only, not real gameplay

Had a bunch they wouldn't be able to blow is visually cus of cross gen. Now let's just hope the actual gameplay does

 

[MatrixReloaded101]

But if you read the message it clearly stated there would be a countdown at 9AM PST.

I get it but don't overreact. You'll live.

I was fully aware of when it was going to start but from the number of people that tuned in, it's clear this was confusing for a lot of people.

People are already excited about the gameplay reveal this wasn't necessary or at least not 5 hours before the reveal.

 

[SLB1904]

it looks stuttery and upscaled AF.

so much for that trailer, or the talks about flying because part 1 couldnt do...

Sweating. Aren't we?

 

[Dodkrake]

“Not real gameplay. In engine”.
Bad start?

Could you do these shots during gameplay on HZD? no

They likely have a placeholder camera somewhere and are panning the shots. This is how the game will look.

 

[Trogdor1123]

That fog looked pretty great.

 

[RayHell]

Maybe you should have read exactly how it'll look like? It was known from the reveal those two days ago or what that first there'll be just a 5-hours countdown.

Nope I got a visual for a state of play event which I set a reminder. Nothing about a 5 hours countdown. And by seeing how many people are unaware you know it's bad marketing.

 

[buenoblue]

The Japanese stream is better.

 

[SlimySnake]

Yeah, i am out. I expected a downgrade, but did not expect it to look this bad.

 

[MastaKiiLA]

Over 100K people tuned in to this countdown thinking it was the real reveal, this was badly planned.

How is it badly planned? You're watching it. I'd say it was well-planned if it has 100k users arriving 5 hours early.

 

[Entroyp]

Sony underestimates how dumb people are. This countdowns was a bad idea.

 

[Caio]

4 hours and 50 min to go 10 min of this was enough

 

[Jon Neu]

Doesn't look much better than the first one.

 

[Dust-by-Monday]

These vistas look really dated. The lighting leaves a lot to be desired.

 

[SLB1904]

Why do you care what other people do?

 

[supernova8]

If this "pre-show" is in-engine and not even running on PS5... I dunno it looks kinda shit, or rather it doesn't look nearly as good as what I'd hoped.

Then again if you look at the Forbidden West reveal trailer, it looks the same, so I guess this is as good as it's going to get.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Doesn't look much better than the first one.

Let’s see the actual game in action first.

 

[SLB1904]

Xbox fanboys sweating already lmfao

 

[FingerBang]

It's a goddamn 1080p youtube stream, how the fuck can you tell anything from it?

 

[Dodkrake]

it looks stuttery and upscaled AF.

so much for that trailer, or the talks about flying because part 1 couldnt do...

It's a 1080p livestream on youtube (compressed as fuck).

The stutters are on your end, it runs smooth here.

 

[HellforLeather]

Doesnt look bad, but definitely doesnt look like a generational leap. I understand the reasons why but bummed this is a cross gen title. When is next gen actually supposed to start?

 

[vaibhavpisal]

Why people are thinking this is how its going to look??

 

[Putonahappyface]

My initial thought when loading up the stream . “This looks like it’s on PS4”

Fixed.

 

[RoadHazard]

So the real thing is at 22:00 CET?

 

[TJC]

Go watch the first reveal of HZD on the stream at 1080p then watch the 4k trailer, your watching a compressed YT vid FFS get a grip people. Plus it's not even gameplay!

 

[Crimson_Fate]

Well... this beats those relaxation devices . Might need to pop this on tonight to get me to sleep

 

[LiquidMetal14]

People are already excited about the gameplay reveal this wasn't necessary or at least not 5 hours before the reveal.

As I said, I understand but only to an extent. It's just games. I was slightly tickled for like 1 second. I'll be back when it's time.

 

[MastaKiiLA]

It's a goddamn 1080p youtube stream, how the fuck can you tell anything from it?

This happens literally every fucking stream. Every. Fucking. Stream.

 

[[Sigma]]

Blind, some of you are clearly blind. Or trolling. Probably both lol.

 

[saintjules]

For a second there I thought the countdown was a repeat of Valhalla's reveal..
