For a game of this scale thats still in an unfinished alpha state it looks amazing, all you people comparing it to actual finished games of much lesser scope are just cluless, but i suppose thats whats expected from SW and you numptys ;)
Different locations, man you do suck at comparisons.

I'm finding as tech advances, I'm less "mind blown". Looks great. Big deal. How does it play?
Well, it's Alpha, it has inconsistencies but i'm sure it'll get better down the line.

For a game that supposedly takes advantage of the highest end PC rigs out there I'm not impressed. There are definitely games that hold their own in the graphics department on consoles with significantly less horsepower.
Then what does impress you?
This is not about power of platforms, this is about which game nails it the best in graphics department.
I'm not impressed with the fact that this is the best that can be made with the highest end PC rig. Either the dev making this game isn't as talented as others or PC hardware needs to advance even further for us to see a huge disparity between visuals on consoles vs PC's.
How many games have you played on PC on Ultra settings with native res?
Was this game at e3 this year? Guess not lol. What, no release date still, after how many years now?! When it releases we'll have ps5 games to compare and easily blow away it's graphics to another solar system.
Actually ps4 Neo or Scorpio would do it before hand, darn it lol.

As i stated, once BF1 comes out ...it'll be the GFX King and will remain so until SC comes out, plain and simple.
We are running out of acronyms. SC = Starcraft not Star Citizen. MP = Metroid Prime not Max Payne BF = Battlefield not Battle Front And TF2 = Team Fortress 2 not Titanfall 2.
Maybe we should use 2 characters per syllable? TiFa2 TeFo2 MePr MaPa BaFi and BaFr StCr and StCi Hmm that looks messy...

You mean God of War which will be released in 2018? We have already seen Sony's next 2-3 years titles and man The Witcher 3 already looks better than them , the fact that you think a 400$ box can surpass the cutting-edge technology is hilarious.

Do you see what it does to my posts when you quote it? All the added linebreaks? Does anybody know of a solution? It's been bugging me for months and I can't find a solution online. I'm using Firefox... I guess I could try a different browser but I have hundreds of lewd bookmarks on Firefox.
@mjorh: the witches 3 looks like a joke next to horizon which will be released feb 2017. God of war looks better than anything out of upcoming at this stage. Now the Neo version of these games would literally destroy sc. Face it, sc is not a graphical showcase, you'll have more chance with Ryse 2.

The Witcher 3 on PC craps all over Horizon. Don't make me post screenshots.
Not sure about graphic king just yet but it does look pretty good. The lightning improvements in this patch are definitely noticable. Can't wait for Squadron 42 to come out so we can see the graphics at their fullest.

Oh please, TW3 pc doesn't even have volumetric lighting or volumetric cloud. No massive half million polys dinobots roaming in herds, abysmal foliage, the techs in TW3 is just primitive in comparison.

I'm sure Horizon will look exactly like it's E3 demo , have you ever heard Guerrilla Games downgrade their games :p

Haha black crush some more with the contrast, get rid off that SweetFX filter already man. Nothing impressive here.

This is how you do proper open world graphics
Love your non-gameplay screenshots. Keep up the good work. I guess this discussion is over since you don't have a case.
It will look 99% like that on Neo, maybe a little jaggier on OG PS4. But the main assets, lighting and textures will remain the same. In any case the game looks better than TW3 overall.

And by the time the Neo is even out, a PC game will far outshine it... Not really sure why you are discussing the Neo at this point. It's not even fucking out.
Posting 720p YT grabs now? I knew you would resort to that lol. But even in those horrible compression I can still see much better lighting and denser assets in Horizon than TW3.

Not to mention he assumes there will be a Neo version of every upcoming game despite having no evidence to support this.
@mjorh: My point was more in general than about strictly Star Citizen. Maybe I've been gaming too long but to me, most games look great visually these days. The scrutinizing and nit picking that happens here is absurd. Is it fun to play? That's my main factor.

Lmao what the ****?
Gameplay shots of Horizon don't even touch Witcher 3 maxed on PC. This isn't even a contest. Why is it always the same poster, you can go look at his post history he even said Killzone, Infamous, Until Dawn, and DriveClub were graphics kings as well. Godamn embarrassing, and he's still at it.
It isn't clear if the guy is on Sony's payroll or has some kind of severe eye disease.

If you count 720p yt grabs as proper gameplay shots that is. Here, let me replicate it with TW3.

Well,you count non-gameplay bullshots,fair game.
To be fair I would not post any PR shots if I have uncompressed png shots of the gameplay available, I'll be more than glad to post them, especially the Neo version.
He's like that Saturday morning cartoon villian that loses every week. He knows his plans will fail every time, but still continues. It's sad to watch. "You darn meddling kids!, Sony will one day have a graphics king, just you watch!".
Those are obvious PR shots,with the watermarks on it.

That's for sure, Star Wars Battlefront is a beast in terms of graphics fidelity yet i'm not inclined to grab it because the game is not good enough ...so yeah fun factor and gameplay are in priority no matter how games advance in graphics department.
it's fun rustling some fanboys' jimmies :P "GFX King" makes them go nuts lol

Doesn't do any good if most gaming PCs can't run it. If you have a screaming nice build then enjoy but most of us don't have that capability.

when they announced this game as a kickstarter project in 2012 , it wasn't supposed to get this big ...
Their fault
Yep , they should've known people don't understand the process of game development and how long it takes to make a good video game
What Star Citizen clearly showcases is the dangers of transparent development and Early Access model. All that alone allows anyone to be a critic without having any idea of game development. Games in alpha stage of development are more often a mess than not. In fact, if you ask me, Cloud Imperium Games puts too much effort into showcasing every step of their work. Too much effort goes into making game mechanics bug free that are subject to change in the future. And too much effort goes into showing off their work aka transparency. All that time and money would be better spent on the development. This is the danger of transparency that we are seeing here. And I never tire of pointing out that Star Citizen has been in active development for less than three years. All your favorite games were mostly made in five or more years. Especially big scope games like SC. It's way too early to freak out.
Edit: This is what games typically look like in most of the development cycle:
I would hope a small linear qte game would look better than one on the scale of SC. But even then, GoW will be downgraded while SC will only get better - so even that is contested.
