new witcher 3 gameplay (lmao at the downgrade)

You don't think people know how PC gaming works in 2015?

Please come off the PC is space alien technology BS argument buddy. Changing resolution, AA, filters and texture quality...but it's the same damn game on a basic level. Unless you are dealing with a mod that completely reconstructs the game your "options" aren't going to make it a different game.

Add as much AA or Resolution as you like, but on a basic level this looks like shit for a 2015 game if people are hyping it for graphics...Deal with it and stop the pathetic "PC creates an alternate universe" excuse.

@kinectthedots Nice, a cropped picture from a you-tube.

Actual direct feeds, shall we?

lmao at the mustard above me posting artistic bullshots and comparing when to actual gameplay. face it, the game has been downgraded dramatically

#desperation

*cough* The Order *cough*

its fukin terrible. i activated god mode + infinite spells to get through that shit fest of a game because i hate playing sequels without playing the original. took me 30 fukin hours to finish. witcher 2 has much better combat than the first though

the order shot he posted is gameplay. yes it looks that good. unbelievable i know

Yes because PC never has the best gfx or anything. Totally have to be desperate.

It nearly looks last gen. Witcher3 on ultra looks better and has 10x the scale, rofl.

lol since you want to make the comparison

Aside from resolution, it nearly does. Look last gen i mean...TW3 that is. Geralt would have fit in nicely with the doll like character models from MGS4 in 2008 on PS3. Impressive for the time maybe but it's 2015 now.

that water, tho... so bad looking compared to DA:I water effects. and what is going on with Gerald walking/running animation? Its almost ME3 level rofl.

Apparently, Ultra settings are suppose to make it look like VGX/High quality E3 trailer level

You 2 need to cut it. You still can't post a game of this massive scale that looks better. A linear, inclosed corridor running at near 900p resolution isn't very impressive.

Linear QTE game, and still looks like shit:

already did with multiplat shots, you need to stop. Both MGS5 and Final Fantasy XV walk over TW3 in graphics so please cut the tired "massive scale" argument to try to give TW3 a pass.

Nothing from TW3 looks as good as these and both are massive open world games, sorry but that scale/open world excuse isn't going to fly this time to make people blindly follow the hype herms have drummed up about the graphics this go round.

@kinectthedots: You're actually using a shot from when FFXV was still caled versus xiii?

Oh boy. And why are you using MGS5? It'll be vastly better on PC. Even then, i won't comment on that one.

But FFXV is full of bad textures. Look at the actuall videos. And i just posted that TW3 Ultra will look vastly better anyway.

It was console level footage so far, on high settings.

So, what exactly are you defending?

You know the latest footage of TW3 was pulled from 2 980's SLI right? Is your rig more powerful? So basically, if you have an ultra maga powerful rig you can run TW3 at a level that isn't a complete underwhelming bust? ok cool.

The thing is, MGS5 is going to be on PC and every advantage TW3 has in "options" for PC will also be available for MGS5. The ability for MGS5 to have same options that are available to other PC games helps your TW3 argument how exactly? It just means TW3 will be inferior to MGS5 on consoles and PC.

You said I couldn't post a game of that massive scale that looks better...and yet I did, 2 times over even!

Your rebuttal was FFXV textures, well buddy the entire make up of TW3 looks inferior to that of FFXV so simply saying "bad textures" for FFXV to defend a game that looks hardly better than a glossy last gen crossover isn't that great of a defense to begin with. Then you go to say the name was different and other ramblings to counter the proof I give you, talk about weak.

You are full of excuses man. THIS is an IN GAME shot HUD and ALL. So now it's your turn, please show me an IN GAME, non-staged bullshot, HUD featured shot of TW3 that looks better than this.

TW3 Looks like a cartoony version of Fable compared to either MGS5 or FFXV so I doubt you will find anything to help your cause.

that shot doesn't look good at all...

Also, the Witcher 3 isn't even finished yet. Wait for the final product before talking about how it will run

For a big world, looks nice though, just not anywhere near cutting edge or the old videos. Every developer releases fake stuff, so why would Witcher 3 be any different ?

One of the very very few pics I could find of TW3 that wasn't a staged bullshot that actually has a HUD. Feel free to compare and contrast at your leisure.

Still trying to figure out why people are supposed to be impressed with TW3 graphics as hermits say, with foliage looking like something from last gen consoles and graphic design a step above Fable, I just don't see it.

Being completely honest, if you objectively look at all three of these pics and rate the graphics from 1 to 3 where would The Witcher 3 land? Problem is hermits are arguing with their beliefs and not what they actually see.

PC devs don't do this often, actually. It's more or less a console sin, like we'll all see once The Order HUD direct feeds come in from actual players and it ends up looking terrible like 5Club and Infamous outside of photomodes.

The devs recently already confirmed that there is no downgrade. TC got destroyed.

LMAO at consolites having a meltdown, there's no game of this scale on consoles that looks this good.

All their exclusives are extremely claustrophobic experiences.

And I'm sorry but that MGS5 pic looks fucking awful, is that PS3?

The grass is so low quality, half the picture is blurred, the texture work is low res and snake's polygonal charge is so low.

MGS5 is nothing but a 1080p last gen game with low polys and blocky shadows.

And the only thing impressive about FF are the character models, you can clearly see how the rest of the game suffers because of this, a lot of low res textures as well.

Please stop posting those garbage tiny gifs, and post 1080p screenshots where we can clearly see the details, posting small ss just helps in hiding the flaws of the games.

Only decent looking characters, everything else = blurry garbage

next gen lol

Not to mention, those experiences have to have tons of smoke and mirrors + 30 fps with dips to even come close to matching our OPEN WORLD GFX.

Just look at any The Order screenshot with a HuD. Massive closed in set-peices, blurring, super grain, black bars, shitty textures apart from characters. It's bad, real bad.

Why do you think those idiots mostly only post face or cutscene screenshots? DriveClub and Infamous look terrible in actual HuD shots....like holy shit bad.

lol consoles.

TW3 Looks like a cartoony version of Fable compared to either MGS5 or FFXV so I doubt you will find anything to help your cause.

What do you win if MGSV or FFXV are better looking than TW3? (same goes for the other side of this ridiculous arguement).

There is a "other side"? I thought people had eyes....

And lets say you are blind, just use common sense from the last 3 gens and PC vs Console gfx...

All the games are on all systems, so what the **** is there to win in the "better looking" argument.

Yes the PC version of all 3 games will look better no doubt, but people are arguing about which of the 3 will look better on all platforms.

@kinectthedots: Has far has i know, MGS5 isn't fully open world, but simply connected large areas. Could be wrong.

Anyway, i have Ground Zeroes on PC. Trust me, it's a great looking game and the lighting shines (no pun intended), but the last gen assest and textures across the models and environments are easy to spot.

Has for FFXV, well, the pics above show it. Funny that you question my post, yet you use teh same exact pic i question since it's from years ago.

And again, why are you trying to own herms with this. PC will have the definitve version of TW3, MGS5 and FFXV, after it gets announced sooner or later.

The PC gfx champions has been Star Citizen for awhile now. TW3 probably comes second.

@04dcarraher: Tress FX 2.0 not only looked better it ran better. If they actually tried to use the GPU computational abilities it wouldn't be difficult. CD Project Red said they didn't plan on using any hardware specific features of either console and that's sad.

you posted an employee of cdpr claiming that the pre downgrade visuals will be achievable on ultra. certainly you must know that developers lie all the time? their comments dont mean anything until we see actual gameplay looking like this

http://www.gamersyde.com/news_the_witcher_3_vgx_trailer-14895_en.html

@Jankarcop: Except it doesn't have lower scores and multiple sights have said it's simply better on consoles. Click a mouse to move? Lmao what a joke.

Dont compare UEE, PC didn't have that release.

Compare D3 to D3. It scored higher everywhere on PC (GS/MC). Controller limitations results in a vastly lower Greater Rift level, and difficulty. It is sad really.

At this point console version is barely played, and has far less features yet is rampant with duping due to client side. Season/ladder has become a huge thing.

@Jankarcop: I am comparing UEE which is the superior version. Avenger mode alone is worth it. And what are you talking about greater rift difficulty and the controller? The only thing a controller does is it makes it easier to move.

You can't compare UEE because that same major update was not scored for PC.

DIablo3 scored higher on PC and kb/m allows for higher GR ranks, ladders, and seasons. Better and more content.

The fact that you do'nt know why controller would make you do lower GR's shows you havn't played it on PC. Do gr past 48 and get back to me.

LOL the recommended hardware is only enough for 30fps, if you want higher you need put down settings or upgrade:P

@Jankarcop You can compare UEE to Reaper of souls. The fact is UUE is the highest scoring Diablo period. KB/M has nothing to do with season or ladder support. The reason the PC version has it is because it requires a constant connection to Battlenet.

That also had a MAJOR content patch that PC also got, which was not scored on PC.

Can we get a lock on this thread?

Here is the link to official forums which says it is not a downgrade - http://forums.cdprojektred.com/threads/32644-Obvious-Downgrade/page282

Lmao I cant stop laughing

Oh the devs are saying it hasnt been downgraded must be true lmao the footage says otherwise and enough people say it has which is why devs are having to damage control

There's a slight downgrade and I don't care a bit about it. I'd buy and play this game even if it had graphics from the first title.

The irony of this all is, it does turn out Console fanboys notice a huge difference from high to ultra.

These new videos were on slightly higher than console settings, the older ones were PC ultra. I'm glad you guys apparently got laser surgery.

Thanks for that ghostwarrior.

I'm sorry, but does that screenshot genuinely impress you?

Because to me it looks like something from Assassin's Creed 1.

Off with a lot of you posting character close-ups from Japanese games for "comparison". If you've been gaming for some time, you know the priorities of Japanese devs.

All of the polycount and textures goes into characters, while the environments are 1-2 gens behind. Which is evident from the very screenshots some of you post.

And FF still uses FMVs left, right and center to this day, so any "screenshot" that looks good is doubtful.

Again, Kojima's games look godlike in cutscenes, but only about passable in-game.

That's how it always was, that's how it is, still.

The above screenshot looks like original Crysis on Medium settings.

It's so unremarkable, i don't even know why you post these.

Also, GZ has ridiculous pop-in, even on PC and consoles have it even worse.

@R10nu: lol please provide screens of AC 1 and crysis 1 on medium settings looking like the above clown. wow you are clueless.

A turd thread from the turd @ghostwarrior786.

The game looks fantastic on PC. I don't see any downgrade. Maybe only very slightish, but that's it. The game still looks better that anything in the development except for Star Citizen.

That's awful, that means most won't max it and it will be very difficult at 4k.

Pot, meet kettle.

If you really can't see that these 2 screens are completely unremarkable, you're pretty much as clueless as they come.

Both of those games reek of cross-gen.

Ask me to prove you wrong with screenshots when you'll have an actual argument.

I'm still looking forward to this game.
