The fact that the game can zoom up to each individual character during real-time cutscenes and STILL manage look good speaks volumes about the game's technical abilities. Prepare to overclock your CPUs! :P
“In almost any game, should I encounter a hallway with one staircase going up, towards my target, and another going down, towards nothing obvious at all, I will go down.”
Apparently this game enourages such behavour so I am very excited.
@mixindave From my understanding, the graphics aren't all too different, but did hear that the number keys help a lot with switching weapons on the fly. Also, you can increase the field of view which I am very happy about.
Looks great, but I still find it annoying that enemies seem to only attack one at a time which is a shame because my major gripe in the past games was that you didn't have to give a second thought to taking on 20 enemies at a time. Their numbers practically mean nothing more than more tedious button smashing which is not what I want. When I run around the corner only to find 10+ enemies, I want to get a feeling of "oh crap! I gotta hide!"
@ryancyc @ssj2los @60fps You do realize that the only reason I got vocal about frame rate was because you and Venom_Raptor decided to speak for everyone in saying that 60 fps isn't needed? I would've left that part alone if it wasn't for you guys being so snobby and acting like everyone should hold that opinion. I don't feel that way so I decided to explain my opinion on it and you took it as me saying that I look down to you all. I absolutely don't. I still use my consoles quite frequently and they're superb for parties whereas PC falls short in that category. It's just that frame rate holds a huge part in letting the game flow well which is crucial for me. It has absolutely nothing to do with graphics.
Also, I actually do have a hard time watching action movies because of the low frame rate and it's the reason why I don't bother watching them as frequently. Same goes for games. Just please don't act like you're an expert on this stuff when I'm assuming that you don't have real solid experience with a gaming PC.
No, I called you snobby for simply deciding for others what their opinion on games should be. It's no different than what extremist PC elitists say. As I told S4vagecabbage, video games are meant to be fun and "fun" is subjective. Some people get most of their joy out of standing in awe of a game's graphics, which is perfectly fine. For me, that's not a huge deal and if it was, my most anticipated game wouldn't be the indie game called Monaco which has 8-bit graphics.
As I said in another comment, I have to wonder how many you guys have actual experience with 60 fps games. The difference is much more noticeable than minimal and really helps you to get into gameplay because it lets you see more of what's going on. 30 fps makes things look much more choppy and it's the reason why I wish movies had higher frame rates so that we could actually see in fine detail what is going on in these action scenes. I'm only bothering to explain this, BTW, because of how many people here simply think that PC gamers are elitists because of this.
I can understand your aggravation towards these extremists who get in your face all of the time, but it's just as annoying when console gamers tell me how frame rate doesn't matter even though they probably have little to no experience with PC which gives them asbolutely no room to talk. Like I said before, I still plan on getting the game. I'm just waiting for a price drop. Also, I don't understand why PC gamers are always the ones to get called elitists. Xbox 360/PS3 players can be just as snobby to Nintendo Wii players.
