Its either that or people whining why didn't GT6 launch on next-gen hardware?

 

[Interfectum]

Yup can't win either way. It cant possibly be something as simple as... PS3 gets it this year, PS4 gets an upgraded version next year. Nah.

GT > drive club

Evolution needs to get in line

Besides, GT6 wouldn't even be a launch title. DC is. It will have enough time on its own.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

SO many threads.

Drive Club's crazy spokesperson cut off Drive Club at the knees.

 

[darkwing]

DriveClub needs to know its place

 

[Perkel]

why would sony cut off drive club at the knees?

who said it will be 2013 ?

Drive club is launch title and GT6 for PS4 could be released later like march or february

 

[KageMaru]

I'm confused, I thought there was only a PS3 version, so is that version using tesselation or is there a PS4 version using this?

 

[anddo0]

They can coexist.. Drive Club looks like Sony's version of PGR.

 

[Ravensmash]

Erm, correct me if I'm wrong - Drive Club and GT appeal to differing demographics....

 

[Ricky_R]

Evolution Studios doesn't seem to be getting a break lately. Hope their game is good and benefits from being a launch release.

Pretty sure it said it was launching this holiday season.

 

[E-Cat]

Drive Club's crazy spokesperson cut off Drive Club at the knees.

But did the fibers on the seat have adaptive tessellation?

 

[Ravage]

Can someone explain what adaptive tesselation does?

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Isn't Drive Club arcade racing? GT would compliment it.

 

[Gadirok]

That along with what happened with Motorstorm:Apocalypse launching during the Japanese Tsunami in 2011, PSN hacks, bigbig and Liverpool gone, it must be really tough on those guys.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Someone help me please what does that even mean?

addaptive tesselation what is that?

 

[Ricky_R]

Exactly. Must be pretty frustrating. At least Sony recognizes their talent and are keeping them on the roster. Hopefully the hype of a new system and upgraded visuals can help Drive Club sell well.

 

[E-Cat]

Dynamically added geometry as you move in closer to an object.

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

Erm, correct me if I'm wrong - Drive Club and GT appeal to differing demographics....

Exactly, fools being fools, besides GT is on another platform, which give DC a lot of space to get sales on the PS4.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Dynamically added geometry as you move in closer to an object.

That's just tessellation.

 

[Perkel]

Dynamically added geometry as you move in closer to an object.

aka something you should not expect from PS3. Until PD used that in their GT6...

I wonder if this mean that they will drop LOD models

That's just tessellation.

Adaptive probably means it will watch for FPS if there is nothing going on screen more tesselation, busy screen no tesselation. Or something like that.

 

[AgentP]

Evolution Studios doesn't seem to be getting a break lately. Hope their game is good and benefits from being a launch release.

They get to make a game on the flag ship system while PD is regulated to the near dead system. Evolution is probably pretty happy and glad it is not the other way around.

 

[E-Cat]

That's just tessellation.

That's because adaptive tessellation is tessellation.

 

[Loris146]

PD is one of the best studio in the world. This is magic. xP

 

[onQ123]

Can people please shut the fuck up about Drive Club & the PS4? this thread is about GT6 using Adaptive Tessellation & every post in the thread is about Drive Club or the PS4 SMH.

thank you & have a nice day.

 

[MikeE21286]

PD is one of the best studio in the world. This is magic. xP

Well there's only 7 new tracks, what else have they been doing for 3 years...


/troll

 

[darkwing]

the bigger question is, is DriveClub using adapative tessellation

if not, then lols

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Dynamically added geometry as you move in closer to an object.

ah that helpsn so what is the big deal about this?

Terrain already comes in once you move closer to it right?

 

[Queen of Hunting]

really 4 threads all for GT6 news like seriously

 

[KingSnake]

Who in the right mind would buy Drive Club at launch at full price if GT6 would come 6 months later? And more important, why not wait 6 months before buying the PS4 (and discounted launch games) if you can enjoy meanwhile great games on PS3 ?

 

[Gestault]

For someone with incredible enthusiasm for the pair-up of Forza with PGR, I think the GT with Driveclub pairing may be the best thing for Sony moving forward.

What can I say, i like racing games.

That's why i can't believe they do that without some kind of twilight princess cross release in the end. Sony isn't that dumb. Are they ?

Good point.

Why are you talking about drive club in gt6 tesselation thread ?

Tessellation is seamless in a way that different LODs aren't. But it's part of the DX11 API. The big question is, how are Polyphony accomplishing tessellation on the PS3? Doing it in software would be way too expensive versus the added benefit.

 

[bhlaab]

Adaptive probably means it will watch for FPS if there is nothing going on screen more tesselation, busy screen no tesselation. Or something like that.

Adaptive probably means they put a word in front of tessellation so people will go "holy shit did you hear GT6 has adaptive tessellation"

 

[funkystudent]

Idea.

DriveClub x GT cross compatible car DLC.

 

[dream431ca]

Can the PS3 do tessellation??

the CELL's SPUs

 

[E-Cat]

the CELL's SPUs

So basically, Kutaragi 4D magic?

 

[Gadirok]

DriveClub x GT cross compatible car DLC.

Seems like alot more work than how they convert skins in LBP.

Also I think there is a studio that actually handles DLC for LBP alone so Sony would have to find someone to handle that sort of DLC.

 

[onQ123]

Can the PS3 do tessellation??

There isn't much that the PS3 can't do the question is how good can it do tessellation.

 

[darkwing]

so this would be the first PS3 game to do adaptive tessellation then?

 

[hardcastlemccormick]

As I said in the announcement thread:

This is pretty damn exciting

Breaking News: NeoGAF experiences a 185% increase in people using the phrase "adaptive tessellation" without understanding what it means. Tonight on Channel 4.

Looks like I was right.

 

[Perkel]

pretty much

Also we don't know how final effect will look like. PS tesselation can be much different to DX11 tesselation.

 

[KKRT00]

I dont think 'adaptive tessellation' is for geometry, but for shadows and textures.
There is quite substantial downgrade in terms of textures and metal shaders on cars, also on Trailers some cars lack self-shadowing.
Maybe its for geometry, but track geometry, so just more efficient LOD system, which was almost absent in GT 5.
