The Division PC Options Revealed.

I don't know what settings these are on PC but I'm hoping they are at low.

Look at the shadows from 1:20 to 1:25 on the right side of the screen.

And here is Xbox One footage of Mission 1. Hard to get a nice shadow shot under same conditions.

If we assume that represents medium then it's likely the above shots are from PC low.



I doubt it. Beta's today are glorified demo's. You put your best foot out when you consider how your impressions and footage will be plastered all over the place especially when you're mere months away from release. Also knowing that outlets like NXGamer and Digital Foundry are going to tear your game apart.
I hate to be a stickler, but the shadow in the PC screenshot you are showing is also completely unfiltered for some reason making it look extra attrocious. If you watch, say, the first 25 seconds of this video on xb1 you can still see how low res the shadows are if you look for it, but they are actually filtered in comparison.
For example:
map149kof.png

That edge stair case shows the real resolution of the spot light shadow map on xb1, that huge pixel stair step. It is just that the shadow is actually filtered so you cannot so readily see it so well. Another point where the ultra low resolution shadow map is apparent is when he climbs the stairs about 1 second later form where this image was taken. The shadows against the bakc white wall there show a massive pixel snap.

Not believing some random youtube channel when it comes to comparisons. The game looks so washed out like he is using a polaroid to capture those screenshots.

Nvidia Italy has the so called "PC version" trailer up.

Seems like this game may also be bundled with Nvidia cards come closer to release? So if you are looking for a copy I suggest you wait.
