Anyone know how to get shots without compression? Facebook sucks.

Although i love the new photofeature in Infamous and the screens look amazing, i personally would prefer this thread to be vanilla gameplay only. Not sure how othes think about this. But the photomodes in gemeral might not give the most accurate image of how the game looks. Same with Forza and other games.

But the Infamous shots are straight from gameplay with a few filter on top and messing around with DoF. It is not the same as photomode in racing games at all in that there are no higher quality effects going on.
Here are my contributions
Holy shit that shot is amazing.
It should be used when comparing to infamous 2 when people say the leap isnt as big as last gen bla bla bla
Infamous 2 shot
My ass it isnt.

Does the game not look that great during normal play?
it looks the same but with the photo mode it's even better

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Camera angles.
And for action, being able to pick just the right frame. That's pretty much it.

I know. Still, it's not how the game looks while playing.
Don't get me wrong, it's not a problem and it looks great. But i do come in here to look what games look like while playing.
You can allready see people thinking it's how the game looks when you play it.

It is how it looks though. Well, pretty much. Tweaking camera angles and DOF that are already there and doing it to the realtime gameplay engine. Not adding extra AA, LOD and so forth like many car games.

If you're changing the DOF and blur then it does not look like it does when you're playing, simple as that.

It's not how it looks while playing. That's not a really difficult concept to grasp, is it (not meant in an agrressive tone by the way)?
And i'm not trying to downplay how the game looks. I've played the game, it looks fanfreakingtastic. What i'm slightly worried about is that people will get the wrong impression of how the game looks while playing.
There is a great thread that shows what awesome things can be done with photomode in Infamous. I think there is also a thread for photomode in racing games like Forza.
I just think this thread would benefit from keeping it purely vanilla gameplay. Or maybe there should be a disclaimer warning viewers that the particular set of images is in photomode... But i'd opt for a vanilla gamplay only thread.
Just my opinion.

Let the haters hate, keep em I:SS photo mode shots rolling. There is a huge difference between Forza 5 photo mode and this. The IQ and detail in I:SS photo mode is pretty much what you get in game, that's remotely not the case in jaggy fest 5.

So then we should not have free camera modes from fps games in multiplayer or any sort of replay - real time or not - from racing games. For me the issue is whether the game is adding high quality effects or not. Cutscenes are less representative of gameplay even if they are real time because they may be doing stuff which isn't possible when actually in control. These are not adding any higher quality effects. The visuals are entirely representative of gameplay. Plus it is actually part of the gameplay, at least to me. You can pause whenever you are in control and manipulate elements, it is damn cool.

Oh no photomode looks too good. you guys have to stop posting in this section because people will think I:ss is a good looking game./s
this one is amazing , I think I'll use it as wallpaper . Thank you

This basically. It didnt seem to be an issue with Tearaway. Why here? It is not the same as Forza photomode at all by all accounts.

I personally think photo mode is very much indicative of infamous' gameplay because you aren't in some secondary game mode with enhanced image processing and added effects that aren't part of the game to begin with. Photomode is baked into your standard game play and requires you to be playing, and NOT watching a replay with added LOD,AA etc.

Okay, i see it's a sensitive subject for some reason.
it's certainly very cool. As this thread shows

Reposting one from the photo mode thread

Definitely not a sensitive subject. I just think its funny that this just became an issue all of a sudden.

That's one way to spin it.
So AA, LOD are a no-go while changes in effects as DOF and blur are perfectly fine? I don't get it, both alter the image and result in an image that doesn't reflect the actual gameplay. Just look at the images posted by Shikari, I've platinumed I:SS but never did it look like that.

It's not all of a sudden in my case. I've had this sentiment since the first photomode images.

I have always hated photo mode trickery. Infamous is no exception. Game does not look as good in gameplay.
What is the point of photomode shots?
