My worst fear is occurring.. they are making unnatural trees with out of place branches, just for the sake of climbing.......
Yeah, it's really apparent in the 4th screenshot.

Pics are amazing except the last, what's going on with those snow trails?

As I said in the other thread: Holy balls. These aren't bullshots and they're still totally gorgeous.
You're acting as if they had a choice.
These look pretty good. I wonder if this is the console version.

No. Function before shape. Please never become a game designer. lol

Yeah, its weird some of the trees in those shots. Especially after the video I got to see at PAX. In the video the creative director was talking about how they made it a point to make the trees look natural, and that they didn't look manufactured for a game. The trees in the gameplay video at least looked nice and natural. It even showed Conner "monkey barring" his way through a couple branched and landing in-between the branches of a tree with two split branches.
Strange....

Artistically I like it, but technically all I'm seeing is bad textures, dithering and aliasing.
Gotta save something for e3
But they gave it to PAX people. Are PAX people better than us? (and why did nobody secretly film it?)
Also weak sauce terrain morphing.

These are looking very nice.

Yeah, they should have gone back to the 1800's and charted all the forests back then to make them look more natural, THEN built the climbing around it.

Maybe I'm just giving it a bit of leeway since these are still probably early. I bet the shadows and terrain morphing at least will be fixed by the final version (on PC at least).

Hah, can't unsee now.
my guess would be place holder texture decals, will be replaced with deer tracks and footprint textures
It's excellent. That way when people quote the same images ad nauseum, it doesn't make you want to slap a dolphin. OP simply shouldn't have put them in a quote.
Why is that your "worst fear"? Failing to do so would actually result in a boring game.

I'm worried about that shadow dithering. I hope they drop some PC shots soon.

It's called "these consoles are seven years old".
it would be slightly better if there was a quick way to keep the images in original size rather than it going back to small version once you release mouse
After replaying Uncharted 2, I realized how fake that affect is. It just kinda renders some fluff behind each of drakes feet. And not even directly where his feet are, more like your typical quasi-foot prints that some games have.

Those look great. So excited.
Click and drag the image slightly. You can then use the arrow keys to navigate the page if the image is larger than your browser window size.
Bingo.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *rends garment*
Viewed these on my phone and they look fine. Was hoping to not see right angle branches everywhere but for game play reasons it makes sense. Look forward to some video tho cuz most games look better in motion. Hopefully we get something before e3.
Edit. Guess I over exaggerated the right angle trees. Still waiting on video ubi.
