Infinity Ward ops to show PS4 footage for COD IGN vids- a series first since MS deal?

Just terrible. Good thing im taking this year off from CoD, those "next-gen" graphics are laughable. Hope we get a real next-gen CoD next year
 
Why do I get the feeling there are a whole lot of people replying to this thread who are not even buying Ghosts, but are definitely buying BF4?

When was that?
I believe it was E3, it was on Game Trailers for sure.

I don't know, maybe you associate mocking with trolling.

There's probably 50% chance I buy Ghosts, there is 0% chance I buy BF4.
 
Activision is the worst. Not even for next gen did they have the decency to invest some money in creating next gen tech. Bioshock Infinite at 900p looks better than this piece of shit.
 
You're including Titanfall in that, really?

Titanfall looks poor for next-gen (and even then we don't know if that is PC footage or not, I don't think we've seen it confirmed on X1 yet, maybe we have).

I'd say that this and Titanfall are on a similar level. They're both Box City and there isn't high detail all over the place. To me they look like 1080p current gen games.

Nothing to make you go 'wow dem grafix', but offer a cleaner and clearer image quality than current gen games which is fine, I mean COD has never been a game to break graphical boundaries.

These are cross gen titles. It's expected. They're basically PC versions of ps3/360 games. KZ looks good cause it's a true next gen title
 
Wait, hell no, this can't be right? Seriously? This is footage from the PS4 version? Seriously? Where's Ashton? OK guys, seriously where's Ahston?
 
seriously guys, this video is 30 fps and horrible bitrate. let's not go crazy with the hyperbole. i'm sure the game looks better than the last COD, even if it fall short of BF4. but then lets not forget BF4 might be 720p on Xbone.

you can't judge the IQ here, and that could make a huge difference. I say that as someone who isn't planning on buying either game.

Enough of these drive by postings...

1080P, 60 FPS and <50ms of input lag have a cost... there's a reason why this thing looks graphically like Titanfall, it's because they're aiming for the same thing/style.

I made a list of all multiplatform games shown on PS4:
- Assassin Creed IV
- Watch Dogs
- Theif
- COD Ghosts (tomorrow)
- Battlefield 4
- NFS Rivals
- NBA 2K14
- Destiny
- FIFA 14
- The Evil Within
- The Crew
- The Division
- Daylight
- MGS 5

Is there any game from the above list been shown on XB1 too (beside FIFA14&BF4)? also are there other multiplates shown on PS4 and i didn't listed it?

Yeah, let me find it...

ah here it is... Starting from the top to the bottom.

...and I don't mean that in a good way. That does look terrible. Man that engine looks so outdated. I feel sorry for people buying this over something like Killzone on launch day for their PS4 (from a graphical perspective at least).

Hopefully the next Treyarch CoD will have a completely new engine. I can excuse this for being extremely cross gen, but I'm still skipping it. Infinity Ward CoDs suck now.

Treyarch forever.

Treyarch said that they see themselves as the lead Call of Duty team now. A new engine for the next one would make sense.

Drive by post?

It looks horrible. And Titanfall looks about on par as this because it's being made by a much smaller team with a much smaller budget. This looks horrible, and don't throw that 60fps <ms input lag on my face. This looks like an HD up port through and through.

Cross-gen title with same length of time that they normally get to make single generation title says Hi.

Because that has no bearing on how a game looks and performs... riiiiiiiiight.
 
"Marksman rifle"
"Really hard to use"
Thats why he spam shots and get 1 shot 1 kills -__-.

Also, that game looks like ass. IQ is a lot better than the old games, but it WREAKS of old engine... hell they still do those shitty dying animations that eventually flop into a ragdoll.

Black Ops II was a mess. Easily the worst Call of Duty in terms of net code.
 
Think about even Microsoft's exclusives, there's little to no direct feed footage besides trailers.

Ryse, Forza, Dead Rising 3, etc.

Jeff's reasoning sounds accurate. I agree it's dumb on MS's part but he probably is right.
Well, if you are positive your version of multiplats can't stand up to the competition's, then you wouldn't allow devs to release footage of their game running on your console.
As soon as some AC4 XBONE footage gets out, the first thing we at gaf will do is compare it to the PS4 footage. Pictures speak a thousand words, so why add to the already bad press?

It looks so awful. I was going to come back to COD after a 5year hiatus, pre- ordered it and everything. Next gen console, next gen cod. Thought to myself "you know, even if the gamplay is just more of the same, at least it'll be a looker" but christ almighty, that footage has made me want to cancel. Up-res'd current gen port.

I've been "anti-CoD" since MW2, so factor that in to my comments as you will...
but this looks like total crap.

It literally looks like the exact same game i stopped playing on Xbox years ago.

Video compression doesn't do it any favors, I'm sure. I think you would have to see direct feed, side by side PS4 and Xbox 360s, with framebuffer screen grabs compared to see notice any difference. I'm sure there are some noticable differences if you see first hand, last gen and current gen side by side. Res bump for one.. But this still utterly fails to impress on any level.

Last gen, console visuals (for a while anyways) closed the gap with some mid range gaming PCs. Other next gen games right now (KZ4, Forza, Ryse, Infamous) at least appear to be following that trend. But boy, CoD looks old.

If I'm Sony, I'd want this taken down. "Hey IGN, Infinity Ward, stop making our console look so bad!" Shame on you IW, and good grief you buyers of COD ...how many more years are you going to send the message this is acceptable to you?
 
Judging next gen games from heavily compressed videos isn't very smart. 1080p resolution and 60fps are completely lost.



sure you will

If I were making a 1080p 60 fps game, I stop giving footage to sites that butcher it, personally.

It's insane to me that we're seeing people put footage exclusively on facebook, youtube and IGN.

I wouldn't need side by side to see the difference between 1080p and sub 720p. Let's not be silly. I bet there are way more differences than 1080p (and hopefully a much more consistent 60 fps than they usually provide).

Sony's in a good position. Due to the lack of any Xbone vid-porn to fap to, the general consensus is "well, first gen games don't look good anyway.. yeah, thats it!" So COD looking mediocre is par for that course, until you see Killzone.

So its got its "meh" games covered, as well as the second to none ones, only to be met with silence from the Xbone. However, PC still laughs at everyone for this, which is why the graphics debate is always fun.
 
Ghosts is a bit ugly, sure, but surely even if it's more copy and paste as COD has been the past few years, it will play better than frickin' Killzone, I mean c'mon man.

Look at FIFA. It looks like crap as well and people will still give EA their $60 a year. That's why they keep doing it and getting away with it

Activision really screwed up here. They should've added a third studio to make Call of Duty to release this year on Next Gen, while Infinity Ward was making MW3 and Treyarch BO2. Having two studios manage an annual release going next gen would never work.

Isn't this what happens every year? We start seeing the game, it looks like shit, and then proceeds to outsell last years iteration?
