Silly fanboys.
DMC4 has always looked better than HS both graphically and artistically.

really? i played through lost planet recently and i didnt notice any bit of slowdown. i do however see graw dip sometimes from 60fps (nightvision) to 30, but i dont recall it ever dropping below 30. but really, can you honestly be happy with a game as bad looking as resistances just because "it never drops below 30fps"? the game looks bad for a next gen game LET ALONE a ps3 game. it just shocks me how many people can even be satisfied with such garbage graphics from such a hyped, next gen game. ive recently started to play a lot of multiplayer on it, and its a hell of a lot of fun, all this is JUST talking about its visuals. but yeah, if resistance never dropped below 60fps? impressive. NOT OVERLY though, but then id cut it a lot more slack. as it stands though, resistance definately stands as one of the worst looking high profile next gen games, ever.
You need new eyes or something...
For one thing, all of those games (LP and the two GRAW games) have plenty of slowdown (ESPECIALLY the GRAW titles). There isn't simply bouts of slowdown in GRAW, no, there are entire sections that fail to hold 30 fps. The game dips constantly. Doesn't change the fact that they are incredible looking games, of course.
I also think Resistance is a lovely game. It has an appearance similar to that of games like Half-Life 2 and just looks really nice. The further you play, the better it looks.
......
wow.
comparing half life 2's graphics (art OR technicallity) to resistance...
i really must have like a pre alpha/beta of resistance or something. half life 2 and resistance shouldnt even be mentioned within 100 threads of each other. but whatever! it looks like i need "new eyes" or a new copy of resistance.

this will be the last post in this thread because il either be banned for "derailing" even though i didnt bring up resistance in the first place :lol ORRR because im going to sleep.
but anyway, resistance has AWFUL textures, AWFUL color scheme, maybe just MAYBE the worst water in next gen yet, low poly environments, man theres just so much that looks last gen in hd to me in resistance, the ONLY things that look DECENT to me (note: decent, not great by any means) is the character models in the cutscenes, the cutscenes in general, and the chimera/bosses. cant believe resistance was compared to half life 2. the game absolutely wipes the floor with resistance even on a mid spec pc with medium settings. i never really saw any point in resistance where i said to myself "whoa, look at HOW MUCH is going on and its not dropping below 30fps!!. i was never, ever impressed with resistances visuals, and it bewilders me, till today, how many people like its graphics AND its art style, which, i think, is as bad as its technical side of the visuals.
but yeah dmc4 looks great!!:lol

wow, talk about hate, it seems you have not played the same Resistance the rest of the world has.
rod said:
you didn't notice? strange since you seem so concerned with graphics. Again, you have not played the same Lost Planet the rest of the world has... it's better to come here and openly say "I hate Resistance" than make doubtful statements.
rod said:
I'm speechless now
Awful textures? They certainly aren't great, but they aren't bad either. That is the weakest aspect of the visuals.rod said:
Textures really aren't bad...
The color scheme I like (for the most part as the first few levels are rather dull looking) and the water is very cool (totally different approach from most others).
Now, low poly environments? You're simply wrong on that. That is where the game excels. HL2 doesn't even begin to compare on that front.
You really think this looks terrible (some nice DCharlie shots here)?

That is not the forum I signed up to! Go back to /b/!
DMC4 looking great btw. All over that at release.
I've just finished Resistance (PAL) two days ago.dark10x said:
I'd understand when people say that the graphics in Resistance are dull or weak etc., when they've only seen some E3 footage or played the first couple of levels. Because the cities do look kinda boring, they look very grayish and brownish, lacks lighting etc..
The graphics do get better, that's because of the Chimeran architecture, it's looks more interesting than your average city warzone, there's more and better lighting (I like the blue lighting!), it's shinier and even more polygons are pushed in those levels. But imo, the graphics never gets to a point where it's OMG amazing.
This is mostly due to the fact that Insomniac never really pushes the use of shader effects, like there's no selfshadowing and or shadowmaps, minimal use of bloom, HDR, bumpmapping/normalmaps and glossmaps. Most of the walls and ground uses flat textures, but once in a while bumpmapping is used.
The weird thing is all the stairs looks so damn good, because of the highres textures and glossmap.
In short, the effects used are very, very inconsistent, like the shadows, in some levels, everything, literally everyhting, from chairs to tables to little wires to the tubes above you casts shadows when you turn on the flashlight, but in other levels they don't.
OTOH, the characters, chimerans etc looks very nice due to the use of normalmaps.
But it's really the environment that's lacking effects.
If Insomniac uses more shader effects, more blur, more bloom, more HDR in the next Resistance, it's definitely gonna wow people.
But the most important thing is, Resistance is a fun game, online rocks!

I'm sick of games not having good shadowing. What generation is this for christ's sake? Get proper shadows in there!

Yeah, pretty much. My expectations for RE5 are seriously low in the graphics department since AFAIK it also uses the Framework engine.

So wait a couple pages ago people were talking about HS and now all of a sudden it's all about Resistance?
What the **** is going on in this thread?

Well discussions usually include examples or things that aren't the main focus. Don't see why you act like it's odd that someone mentioned HS, or another game to carry whatever point they may have had. It's like talking about MJ without being able to mention Larry Bird, or Magic Johnson because someone would go "wait wait, hold up why are people bringing those players into this thread"? As long as they stay on topic, and provide a pretty good reason for bringing those games into the discussion, it shouldn't be a thing to be astricastricastric amazed at.

gogogow said:
I agree with you. Resistance doesn't look as bad as Rod thinks but it doesn't look as good as the Resistance fans think either. All the people killing Rod by saying that he's either blind or playing some other version of resistance need to read some professional reviews. Resistance's graphics is far from universally respected although Rod is being a little extreme with his criticisms. Also, 30fps in a FPS on a supposedly revolutionary next-gen machine is nothing to be proud of. And that also goes for all 360 shooters that are 30fps, regardless of whether it's locked at 30 or not. Finally, DMC4 looks great even by this gen's standards although I still have my doubts that the console versions will be running at 60fps/1080P.
Hell, I wouldn't care if Capcom had made DMC4 360 exclusive and improved on the LP engine. I'd just like to see SOME improvement in the graphics no matter what the platform. My disappointment is it looks exactly like LP, and the other 360 games with ZERO improvement whatsoever.
Capcom is just being lazy, and as a result DMC4 and probably RE5 will not bed as impressive as they could. Multiplatform should just die a horrible death. IMO

judging two incomplete games is pretty stupid especially this gen because some developers don't add effects until the gameplay is in place.
Come on guys stop this!
Come on guys stop this!
then you are assuming that a ps3 version will undoubtedly have better graphics than a 360 version. but where exactly is the validation for that? one could simply say since capcom has more experience in making 360 games, a 360 exclusive engine will probably provide more technical wizardry. i still dont understand you. logan. i mean yeah, if motostorm is your validation then you could count me out. i think it looks fantastic, yet nowhere near those first videos.Logan Cano said:
as for the best game arguement, by your argument the pc would be the best platform to develop on, judging by crysis. since crysis is the best looking game of all time. which by the way, isnt an opinion, its plain fact.
so basically, if dmc4 were to reach its "full potential", "zenith" if you will, they should have made it exclusively for the pc, with an exclusive controller that catered exclusively to the mechanics of dmc4. since we are talking about potentials and all. lets dicuss more on this issue logan, i am eagerly awaiting your caustic response, my heart is beating faster already.
