It just looks so goddamn blurry.angular graphics said:
PC games shouldn't look like that in 2011. No excuse. None.

Just downloaded and watched the 720p 60fps vids and omg, looks beautiful. Didnt notice any popin textures at all (compared to some vids Ive seen of the pc version)

Videos can be misleading if they're compressed etc.Arcipello said:
Not saying you're wrong, but I only trust screenshots.
Edit: Above images look better. Very inconsistent, then?

We knew this from the trailers, characters look good, the environment often looks very bad.
I posted some screenshots from the trailers a few months ago... http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=440026&page=12

I always keep hope that the final build will have one last coat of sex.angular graphics said:
It's just annoying because I want to play this game and it's not a 100% ugly game, but I know whenever I catch one of those hideous textures it will just depress me. I mean, for fucks sake, this is id!
I'm really getting into it so far. It's just what I needed after sneaking around in Deus Ex for the past week. The art style is really good, which is something I wouldn't normally say about an id game. The world is gorgeous, obviously, but the character designs stand out to me as well. The bit of exaggeration keeps them out of the uncanny valley while still allowing them to go all out graphically. Combat is fast paced and feels great. The foundation is there hopefully it opens up well (I'm not too far in). I like the upgrade stuff you can do so far. Great way to allow you to customize towards your play style without having a whole level up/skill tree system. Items in general are kept pretty simple and I can't see having to really manage your inventory much. The crafting system is appropriately simple and a pretty nice way to incorporate Fallout 3/Oblivion style scavenging into an FPS.
GTX 560ti and I had bad tearing until I forced vsync. Still have the weird texture pop in but it's not too terrible, plus I think I'm getting used to it.

Bolded for truth
Looks keyframed but I really do love it as there's an obvious amount of love and detail put into the animations. Definitely champions the idea that not everything has to move to motion capture.
Also, Doom3 had a fantastic artistic design!
I can agree with their games before that though. QuakeII has probably aged the worst, but even it has it's nostalgic factor that when QuakeIV came around, I was happy to see again.

I think I might wait for a sale on this. Or at least further impressions from people once everyone is further in.
I still have the urge to test Lord Carmack's latest work, but not as much as before. Hope id put some thought into that super quality PC pack they mentioned as well. Looks like it would make a big difference.

Don't freak out over screenshots people, the graphics are gorgeous in motion. The textures up close can be hit or (very) miss but you typically won't notice that as it's a fast paced action game and megatextures work well for it. Perhaps we'll get a higher-res texture patch in the future but don't worry about it, the game is VERY pretty. And that's coming from someone that doesn't like the game all that much.

I've read vsync can be tweaked through the console, disabled, enabled, and enabled as long as framerate > 60

CVG 360/PS3 comparison video

Watch in HD. Looking at the grid and text at 1:44, PS3 version looks blurrier.
I do wonder tho if the blurriness of the PS3 version comes from video cable used for recording. If they are using a retail PS3, they are surely capturing PS3 footage via Component due to HDCP blocking HDMI signal. On the other hand, retail Xbox 360s don't have HDCP over HDMI. So we might be seeing HDMI vs Component here.
edit - also, wtf at no shaking in PS3 version.

It's apparently fine on nvidia cards, though some do have some noticeable texture pop in. Make sure to use the beta drivers.
I still have to wait a couple of hours to pick mine up, not liking some of the textures I'm seeing here in this thread. It wasn't a good idea to give us the same textures as the consoles.
The game is quite good but the PC version is soooo buggy. Constant loading freezes make it just about unplayable. The game doesn't seem to cache textures AT ALL. I have 8 gigs of ram i should not see constant texture loading when spinning in place.
When the pc version gets fixed I could easily see giving it a 9. The game play and ai are top notch, but for now it is a 5 for being so buggy.

I remember reading the EDGE feature on it years ago where they were describing how the mega textures would push technology to the very edge and would have more of an impact than when Crysis was first released.angular graphics said:

Nooo, Skyrim and elder Scroll games have horrible art direction. But i guess you mean texture quality?Kem0sabe said:Its funny how people were all excited when "bethesda" (zenimax) bought id, hoping for elder scrolls games with rage graphics.
After the release of rage, its the other way around, people hoping for id games with skyrim graphics
So based on what I've read so far, I think my rig will be one of the lucky ones (i5 2500, 8GB ram, GTX570) to be able to run it mostly problem free. But people are suggesting the use of the beta drivers? I tried those for The Witcher 2 and my performance was VERY poor, so I went back to the latest official drivers and got great performance. Now the opposite is true for Rage?
