Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
I really need to replay all of these sometime soon, lol. Forgot just how many celebrities they have in these games.
Ric Fuckin' Flair did marketing for a Red Alert 3 game.
Its possible but Im also quite sure article wouldnt exist in Bungie was still Microsoft studio ;d
It's just how things go when you add more players and making things more connected.I'm not sure what about being an Extraction shooter required such a massive downgrade in visual quality.
What specifically about Extraction shooters is so taxing on performance, and particularly GPU performance, that they had to downgrade so much?

Yes, they basically said as much. At least as far as Marathon being a side project.I feel Marathon is a side project for Bungie and they are making Destiny 3 right now
No way Marathon is all what they got

Honestly, we just don't know because we don't know their tools or what could be causing bottlenecks in their game. We don't know how much they are offloading to their servers either.Adding more players increases the game simulation complexity. That only add CPU load. It won't make a meaningful difference to the GPU. So, it doesn't explain the massive visual downgrade at all.
With the recent restructuring where Bungie fired some people and moved other one to other SIE/PS Studios teams (at least part of it agreed during the acquisition, I assume mostly to reduce redundancies and to support the non-Bungie SIE GaaS titles, as publicly mentioned) Bungie said that moving forward they'd focus on Marathon and Destiny.I feel Marathon is a side project for Bungie and they are making Destiny 3 right now

Reminder that they also make the finals, and that handles destruction on the server instance. So really we just can't know why until someone digs deep.
We do know however ,that back when that trailer was revealed, they were making a different game.
They are not making D3. But they will, if they want to be aroundI feel Marathon is a side project for Bungie and they are making Destiny 3 right now

You guys in the US (assuming you are) do a lot of great amazing things... hot chocolate its not one of them ... a good pure hot chocolate with some marshmallows on top is freacking amazing.I'm a coffee guy and kinda don't like hot chocolate so ..

Trust me, in the development of anything in software, there's never an easy one-size-fits-all solution, nor is there a consistent reason why something isn't working. We just don't know what in their environment they encountered that has caused them to scale back their development.We do know. We know that everything that would be affected by server interaction doesn't have anything to do with the GPU. Therefore, the graphical presentation, which is overwhelmingly a product of the GPU, should not have needed to be downgraded.
I don't buy the excuses. The reality I'd bet on is that the initial trailer was just 100% offline CGI rendered horseshit pretending to look like gameplay, and the game at no point in development ever looked like that.
It's crazy how big of a downgrade Arc Raiders got from its initial reveal to what it looks like today:
to this:
No its not. Maxed out on PC it looks awesome. The scale of the maps are incredible too. Also this IGN video is TERRIBLE. Awful qualityYikes. I was actually super interested in it from the original trailer, I play very few multiplayer. I love the look the tone the setting the gameplay (or what it appeared to be), I'm massive into retro 80s sci fi. It was great. It looked like a mix of original halo co-op vibes with helldivers…then its own shit thrown in with extra players and a retro 80s sci fi skin.
Now, it looks terrible…and almost nothing that appealed to me seems to remain.
