I would advise people who are playing this for the first time on PS4 to stay away from the screenshot thread. There haven't been any spoilers posted so far, but you might get the odd person forget that people have yet to play it and post spoilers.

Just a heads up for my TLOU GAF bros. It would suck ass (lol) to wait all this time only to have something spoiled by a screenshot.

Is the OT really going to be any different though?

I pre-ordered on PSN, and when it showed me the description it said "you can download the game when it releases on 12/31/14"
That's just a placeholder, right?

Well, If I were someone who hadn't played this game yet, I wouldn't be anywhere fucking near any potential source of spoilers, lol. The only reason I mentioned the screenshot thread specifically is because it's dedicated to them, so you're gonna get way more screenshots posted there, compared to the OT, thus increasing your chance of seeing a spoiler via screenshot.

I'm gonna be posting a lot of screenshots, but if I think any of them are even slightly spoiler-ish, I will only post the link to them with a warning beforehand. Don't worry, TLOU virgins, I got you covered.

Here are some screenshots.
They are copied by USB and uploaded to minus.com, so they shouldn't be too compressed (besides the horrible quality of the share function).

WOW, is there any way you could get closer to the camera and snap joel and ellies face? The first screenshot looks stellar! I'm sure you could also agree that the screenshots don't do the game any justice considering these are still compressed and clarity/minute detail is lost.

Those screens are awesome. Isn't there going to be a day one patch with a photo mode? I'm sure we'll get some amazing shots from that.

Visuals look nice.

These screenshots are good.

How is the IQ in game? Jaggies?

Can't tell from my laptop. It doesn't let me click on the pictures to maximise their size.

I don't like to judge compressed screenshots. You can make the best 4K screenshot of the best looking game look like absolute shit just by uploading it to Imgur.

From the Console Screenshots thread:



Compressed a ton from Facebook, but it still looks great.

These look really, really good. Seeing it in 60 is going to be insane.

Maybe I'm alone in this but these look pretty good imo.
 
Well I've seen enough to know that these were downsamples. But I think everyone knew that (everyone that wasn't fooling themselves).

But yeah, the compressed images don't help :(

IMGUR can kill IQ but it's not THAT bad. Downsampled images still look pretty good.

But just to be safe I upload PNGs there now.

Huh, those look really good. Imgur may have changed its compression algorithms, because I've seen Reddit steal shots from GAF and reupload them to Imgur and they looked ungodly terrible.

Reddit = 90% reposts and stolen content and 10% OC.
Also kingdom of shitty quality imgur pictures.

But what made it even worse is that since Reddit has this insane unwritten rule that images need to be hosted on Imgur for anyone to bother upvoting it, it completely defeated the point of the screenshots (IQ).
 
To give the share button a little of credit, you are using Facebook as a host, which does even more terrible tings to the picture. Share Jpegs straight from the file system look better, but not as good.
Well, to be fair to the share button method in your example....it was uploaded to Facebook, which adds a ton of compression, as evident in your screenshot. My share button screens look way better than that when I use CubeUpload:

ok, i was going through the console screenshots thread, is there any way of knowing if they are uploaded through facebook? Trying to find a like for like comparison.

Lol the console screenshots thread is full of people using imgur, facebook and twitter. TLoU screens thread is going to have some strict rules on hosting ;P

But to check, you can see a little Facebook F on the tab as well as a link usually involving this:
fbcdn.net

I just opened it in another tab and noticed the facebook logo before the URL. I can usually just tell by the way they look, the FB screens always look really blurry compared to the ones uploaded to decent host sites. Compression artifacts all around the edges of everything. Bleh.

I hope Sony allows us to copy the full sized PNG's to USB in the future.

Great. Sounds like it's going to be awesome. I can't wait to spam it :p
 
I guess those earlier screenshots released from Sony were bullshots, but the game looks gorgeous. Sold my copy of the PS3 version for $25 the other day, pre-ordered from BB with GCU for $40. Solid upgrade, can't wait.

They were definitely down-sampled bullshots. They did the same for the PS3 version too.

Oh i see now, thanks. I also hope sony implements PNG capture in the future.

Yeah this would be great.
