The one picture is from the UC2 beta which ive been playing, so yah its not the final build and MP never looks as good as SP due to graphics being toned down to prevent lag.

Graphics tend to be toned down for multiplayer.

There's generally a graphical decrease when games go to multiplayer. I'm sure that the singleplayer is going to be consistently beautiful though. :)

like everyone else has said, graphics are always turned down for the multiplayer to among other things, help it run more smoothly.

MP still looks amazingly good, just take a look at the building details and character models. It already surpasses most console games solely in MP, so expect the SP to be breathtaking.

Killzone 2 is the exception to that rule, as the SP and MP share the same visual level.

Well you're comparing SP to MP. Don't you think some graphical downgrade will occur?

I'll tell you how it went from that to that, one is a high quality/high resolution picture scalled down to fit the forums and one is a high quality/low resolution video capture scalled up to match the size.

Why should I care, I think UC2 will be the best game graphically this year, but I already see a game that will beat it next year.. So, why should I care?

Look at the ground and wall textures...

Ground texture looks great, and the wall texture looks fine. Unless you mean the part on the farthest left which is obviously blurred on purpose.

The drawyer textures look a little under-detailed and weird, but they are varied and, the rest of the desks look highly detailed, and well-done. l don't see what you are seeing at all.

No I don't mean the Blured part, maybe it's the art style, this game looks like an enhanced COD4 to me IMO(With much more color)(With MUCH better animations/lighting)

Wall texture looks fine, it's just the angle, and l have no idea what you see wrong on the floor texture. And l don't see how you can compare it at all to Call of Duty 4.

you should know by now that just about all betas look the same as the final build...they can't change THAT much from this time until it's release...it's just impossible

but as for MP goes...yea, you got it right

See with UC2 they are going to go through each level and do tweaks so that it is very consitent looking. Lots of "cheating" will be going on to keep the FPS smooth and the game looking great.

Its not finished yet. That polishing is one of the last things that gets done with a game.

This whole thread just seems like TC crying to claim a downgrade and ownage. But it fails so miserably, it's just weak.

As for the 2 people that said Killzone MP is on par with the SP...No it's not. I have platinum in the game, played it alot. MP have quite a downgrade over the SP mode.

FUnny thing is that UC2 and KZ2 online graphics are still better then any solo campaign the 360 has. hopefullly whenever alan wake releases it'll push sonys devs to work a little harder.

MP looks worse, yes. JC2 may look better, though.

JC2 is also 400sq miles, ridiculus. Alan wake might be another contender.
