Killzone: Shadow Fall |OT| Nothing Stops This Rain

My biggest gripe is LOD pop ins for the ground as it occurs a touch too close to the screen. It's vastly improved from before no doubt but I am beginning to wonder if the devs realize the increasing fidelity of everything else makes the flaws even more amplified. Honestly, I'd take some sharp rocks and somewhat barren field to remedy this issue.

That said, I really hope more efficient (read cheaper) methods on implementing Tessellation is developed and used on consoles. The lack of AF in next gen game is disappointing as it is, and so let that be the only one.
 
oh my...

as a halo fan, i am so happy about the new art and gameplay direction that the series is taking in shadow fall.

Same here, looks awesome, although I still feel that the series lacks a protagonist. I can't identify myself being the 'hero' in this game.

It will improve with time. Ryse has no pop ups

Bit unfair to compare a game with the scale and open ended nature of Shadow Fall with that of something considerably more linear and focused. In terms of level scale and draw distance, KZ is in an entirely different league.

That said, only the forest level really shows off any unwanted pop in.

The terrain and object pop-in is distracting with everything else looking so darned good. Dat water.

Great OT. It will be a while before I pick this up, but I hope the MP is every bit as fun and engaging as KZ2's was.
 
Nice OT. I just received an email from Amazon telling me my copy of Killzone has shipped! Shipped by USPS (durrr) but it will be here by Tuesdai.

I'm not really a Killzone fan, but the latest media blitz sure is getting me excited for this game!
 
Man the wait for this is unbearable. I preordered it off PSN just because I figured no way would I want to trade it in. I still play KZ2 from time to time. I really think the mp in this will be even better then KZ2, crazy that this is a launch game.

So, did it get downgraded? (serious question,the light going through the cloak looks much better than the 'new' version but everything else i cant tell)

I'm not sure, the old one the sunlight look like the light moving the direction (or something inside his body). The new one look more natural sunlight from the behind. It is art reason not downgrade.

Consider me pressed at the fact US gets this a two weeks earlier than the rest of us. Game I'm most hyped for, looks utterly amazing

UGH is 3 shooters too much as my first 3 next gen games?? I have COD and BF4 already and I'm on the fence about getting this... it looks AMAZING but I'm afraid I'm gonna get burnt out on shooters.

OLD looks clearer
NEW looks more cloudy (which it what I would think a big explosion would do)

I'm guessing we won't see reviews until launch.

Not that I'm waiting for some kind of validation. I have it pre-ordered based on interest and not what some media outlets will say.
