What change in hair quality? You can barely make out the details in the left pic because it's darker.
I have a feeling the generation jump will not be in graphic fidelity, but in what is shown on-screen. AI, lush environments and better mechanics will be the generational jump for next-gen gaming, not graphics. Graphics are fine, just look at Nintendo's games. Its mechanics and gameplay people want now.
Regarding some of the "lol copying TR"
It would have been silly not to acknowledge things TR did better and learn from them. The pick climbing was one of the things in TR I thought "Uncharted should have this" and from the looks of it they made it way better. Same thing with the rope.
Game looks already amazing and it's still a year to release.

It's not like I can't see the difference... but a generational leap in graphical fidelity? Are you guys for real?
Pssst here's a clue. One is real time the other one is not. Even discounting that yes looks generational difference.

Y'all are crazy. The foliage and character models look amazing. The youtube video looks hella compressed though.
Man, I should start up Uncharted 3.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
It reminds me of Tomb Raider 2013, too, especially when they have a rock face that looks just like the pickaxe-climbable parts in Tomb Raider.
They took a screenshot without the added water/injuries, from a different angle, and under different lighting conditions?
Granted a few things are probably pared back since the left side was a short non-interactive teaser in a very small area, but it's still not a good apples to apples comparison.
Do you not know how lighting works on wet surfaces and how night and day time work?

Why even show the game off if this is all it comes too? Apparently all people are gonna do when they show something is pick it apart visually and bitch about it. It also a long way away from release... I think people need to step away from the keyboard for a bit after shows like this.
It looks incredible.

I forgot UC123 were pre-rendered, sorry. But UC4 is 30fps now innit?
Are we still sure about this?
It's 30fps, confirmed by press release

Yeah I watched it with my brother and we were really excited with the gameplay. The grapple hook will make things very interesting.
I thought the reveal looked fantastic. Game is still coming out next year so they can fixed the framerates. But I really love the use of vegetation stealth.
keeping you opinion in the face of contradictory evidence, brilliant!

Graphics are not out of this world good but it still ranks in the top 3 I would say. But honestly who gives a fuck look how much fun that looks to play!
Seriously I'm dying to play the game, seems like they really improved the mechanics.

No death animation programmed (not meant to die during the demo): http://www.gamepur.com/news/17224-n...ted-4-thiefs-end-psx-live-gameplay-death.html

people calling this an Uncharted 3.5 really need to see the 1080p video and take a look at old gen uncharted games...
Seriously the twitch stream loses a ton of detail... look at the water look at the foliage at the shit ton of ambient stuff going on.
You can say it is not the most impressive game ever, but seriously if you are calling this a 3.5 version of Uncharted then you are trolling.

Even so you can notice a drop in the hair quality. The left looks like CG hair that blends together very nicely while the right is more videogamey and cruder looking. It still looks way beyond what some other devs do hair wise but they're not the same assets being used.

Now THAT looks good.
what evidence? a contradictory opinion of what? It's an OPINION

This didn't look quite as 'up there' as that E3 teaser but I can live with that.
"It looks like Uncharted".
Yes it does.
As for 'evolution'. I don't think the first glimpse of gameplay needs to reveal all of a game's evolution over its past iteration. Game reveals tend to leave stuff out for a good reason.
That said, the more agile NPCs and the rope-swing seemed new to me. As did the tool Drake used to climb parts of the cliff-face.
And, whilst the falling-the-floor stuff is unfortunate, it'll put to rest any questions about whether it was running in real-time.
Seemed pretty much what I would expect of a next-gen Uncharted game so far.
For those demanding evolution - how would you evolve Uncharted??

I will never take anyone seriously who says this was "boring" "generic" or "bad." Absolutely phenomenally awesome in every single goddamn aspect. Blown away through the whole demo.

ND is targeting 1080p 60fps. This looks top notch graphically with those requirements
What do people expect?
Of course its not going to look as good as if they were targeting 900p 30 fps

The level design and encounter design looked great.
Seems like they are applying some of what they learned from The Last of Us with stealth and the like.

The actual gameplay was 30 fps. Anyway ND said they will target 60 fps back at e3 2014. We'll see at E3 2015.
I don't think anyone ever said it was 30fps now.
Eh, it's not 60, the demo is running at 30fps.

i'm not ready to give up on those graphics and that hair,. UC5 30fps, pls. And ffs everyone making photo-realistic trees just fucking copy whatever Cryengine 3 and Drive Club does for light fake scattering to the leaves already.

... also the environment is a LOT more densely populated and detailed than any other Uncharted games. I think this will be a great jump from Uncharted 3 all things considered.

You can easily look at his hair to see it is downgraded. The game as it was shown today looks great, but nothing like we saw at E3.

Well, yeah... but screengrabs from Gamersyde's footage are still several times more compressed than Share button screenshots. And that's assuming that you don't get more compression still from your image host.
