though kazuma_pt is correct.
Anyway, the game still looks great, I have a good feeling about this one.

I don't see what's so bad about the character design. It does its job. Not amazing, but I don't stare at the characters for any extended time in inFamous games anyway.
I may have to replay inFamous soon...

Wow, this is easily day 1 for me, despite hardly playing the first game

I think the character designs are cool, the yellow and grey dudes in the last screen and the guy with the shotgun especially. Plus Cole is super hot.

"You're not sending ME to the COOLER!"
Cole: "Please show some mercy!"
"Mercy? I'm afraid my condition has left me cold to your pleas of mercy."
"Tonight, hell freezes over!"
"Ice to see you!"
"What killed the dinosaurs? The Ice Age!"
"Cool party!"
"If revenge is a dish best served cold, then put on your Sunday finest. It's time to feast!"
"Allow me to break the ice. My name is Freeze. Learn it well. For it's the chilling sound of your doom."
"Let's kick some ice!"
I am sorry they just all work so well.
Giant bomb did a sort of "Ask me anything about Infamous 2" video and the footage is fucking MINDBLOWING!!!!!
Holy hell the combat and powers look awesome.
Must watch:

Here are some direct screens taken from the beta. No aa (like Infamous 1) but SSAO... still quite an improvement over Infamous 1.

The single player vids they showed before looked like the game had some AA solution...probably MLAA...hopefully they haven't removed it....

I'll take aliasing over blur that also blurs the textures. Which is one of the biggest improvement in this sequel in the graphic compartment.burgerdog said:

I was going to watch the footage but then I realized I honestly don't need to see anything more, after how much fun I had with inFamous I know this is a day one no doubt.

^I HATE that so damn much. This was a huge problem in the first Infamous for me. The forced bloom/out of focus BS. It's so damn infuriating seeing blurry stuff far away because I often look on the entire screen for enemies or things in the distance to see where I want to go. WHY do they have to do that.
My brain tells my eyes where I want to look, I don't need the game to tell me I should be looking at my main character by showing other stuff in the distance to be out of focus. He's in the middle of the screen, I know I should be focused on that but sometimes I like to look at things far away without having to squint my eyes (which doesn't do anything obviously but it's a habit anyway because that's usually what you have to do to see blurry things.) This was particularly annoying in the in-game cutscenes as well. I know they're trying to appear cinematic with the depth of field stuff but they jacked that up to the max in the first game.

It hides far away aliasing and level of detail transitions. Fog looks a bit stronger in Infamous 2.
They also used it to represent areas that were out of power in the first game, maybe it'll become less apparent if you light up parts of the city.

Walking is reserved for "Like a Boss" moments in cutscenes.
Personally, I don't think there really is a need for walking in inFamous because the game is all about getting crap done quickly. Then again, if they added more 'weight' to Richard's
P) movements and really started doing things with the free running, I probably wouldn't mind having a slow walk to start and then having to get up to speed.TTP said:
Is that the control scheme from the beta? (I should have redeemed my code instead of playing Portal 2 Co-Op :/)
Kagari said:I still hate that they changed the Cole model to appease whiny internet forum goers. So ugly... and no I'm never going to stop complaining about it
Damn straight!
Of course, now they're gonna counter with "lulz lulz focus groups lulz." Still, they settled for a Cole who still looks nothing like the original. Arguments invalid.
I think the two people we can blame directly are BobTheFork and Greg Miller.
Anyway, we already know they are including skins, so they might as well include all the different versions of Cole.
