Skyrim on 360 was impressive.

Yeah i honesrly don't get these 'Skyrim looked like trash' comments. It looked awesome back then. Not everything looked good, but damn those snowy mountains and those dungeons.

Oh snapzzzzzzz. Is the difference between JPG and PNG from PS4 that big then? I can't hate on these screenshots.

Why you don't answer to my question? What exactly couldn't be handle graphically? The graphic assets seems quite dated to me.

I'm trying to put this as nicely as possible, but it's my opinion that anyone who holds the above view is just not capable of interpreting what they're looking at for whatever reason.

Beautiful. I just don't know what to say to anyone who thinks this game looks like garbage.

Why are we not comparing it to the tech of Skyrim??? Fallout 3 was 7 years ago and isn't the last Bethesda game on this engine

This looks miles ahead of Skyrim (and of course FO3). People staring into the distance on consoles like it is a new issue on the platform. Reality is, you don't have that perspective during an actual TV play through.

EDIT: Yo that's some good AA

This will be great fun but after playing Mad Max recently on PS4, these graphics are pretty crusty :p Oof.

Well, that isn't the default UI, so it's certainly modded in some fashion.

True, I had to use darnified to replace the UI because the default was an eyesore...although not quite as terrible as FO4 is.
UI mod has no bearing on graphics rendering though.
 
Except it was my, completely vanilla unmodded, screenshot of the first thing player sees after getting out the vault.

Maxed out, on PC, at a higher native res than the console version. Still an awful comparison.

Perhaps when Fallout 4 drops, I'll grab some screenshots of my game, maxed out, at a higher res than the console version, and then we can make this comparison again, k

I can make Witcher 2 look better than Witcher 3 with tactics like that, bro. You want me to pull up some maxed out Witcher 2 shots and compare them against compressed PS4 shots of Witcher 3 to see how your logic holds up?

Graphically it's a ps360 game.
oh cool this again

please read this post and tell me what you think

and then why don't you find me shots of PS3 or 360 games that are doing anywhere near what this game is doing mechanically while retaining even a solid 720p native image

And the FO3 shots you linked looked better than these FO4 shots.

That's some dumb shit. No they're not, and they're native 720p with very little anti-aliasing on top of that. Don't be a jackass.

No one said this game seems absolutely garbage. It's very dated and disappointing in the graphic tech used.

Anyone else bothered by the hud? It sticks out too much with that black border around the text. I preferred FO3's

Those PNG's look better.

Well, those are arranged carefully to not show off the primary faults (draw distance, LoD, shadow rendering distance) of the OP images.

I don't think it has anything to do with the image file format :p

My only experience with fallout is with new Vegas. While I'm sure these games work and look the best on PC, as long as it runs fine/stable and is as fun as new Vegas and skyrim then I'll be happy dandy. Besides, it doesn't look that bad. It could be a whole ton worse.

Because its a new Fallout game?

I didn't say we can't also compare to Fallout, but...

Graphically, it makes a lot of sense to look at Skyrim on consoles and instead we are seeing a ton of people posting promo and modded 1080 shots of FO3 in flattering lighting. Reality is, FO3 on consoles and blown up to 1080 looks awful.

Except dozens and dozens of people in this thread, some even said "Shame on Bethesda"...

I'd argue it looks quite good, even great, but shaming Bethesda or saying it's terrible garbage, barely better than NV, or that it looks like a PS360 game is so beyond the pale that I question the sanity/intelligence/troll intentions of anyone who claims it.

Also, as I mentioned before, it's also a very colorful game, which is quite different from FO3 and NV. I personally like that.

Those graphics are beyond poor. It's going to be one of the worst looking AAA games on ps4.

Fallout 1 or 4?

You two are on a roll today, nice job

Yup, definitely playing this on PC.

How much you wanna bet this don't look leaps and bounds better on PC without enthusiast super high end hardware that costs over a grand? I have a 1500 dollar pc and i use to say stupid judgemental stuff until i realized that on the PC it don't ever look that much different than on consoles outside of higher resolution and better AA

Personally I think the game looks very good for a open world game. On par any of the other open world games currently out.

RedEngine 3 is an iteration on the engine CDPR has been using and improving since The Witcher 1, and not to dismiss the tremendous work they put in toward achieving their open world, but the game doesn't look or play all that different from Witcher 2 outside of the open world mechanics and some combat rejiggering, so I'm not sure why you posit that as a huge game changing engine revision. And the other 3 engines you mentioned are game engines designed foremost for licensing or intercompany development, engines that particularly hinge on their ability to produce competitive and industry leading visuals.

I think that as long as this game runs considerably better and more consistently than previous iterations while looking the way it does (considering the things I mentioned in the above post), it will represent a reasonable advancement for the engine.

Absolutely. They needn't change things that don't need changing, but the engine definitely calls for more intrusive improvements than simply changing the renderer.

The game looks colorful, but the graphics are really dated. I don't think its a good looking game at all...

this engine should have been dragged behind the barn and shot a LONG time ago....the difference between fallout 3 and 4 is laughable :(
 
You mean the more colour? Ok. Well I'm expected a bit more than just more colors in a new generation but maybe it's my fault.

lol i'm done

look at shinobi's PNG's if you really think thats just some more colors then yea..

It's still not the best looking game ever but it's fucking miles above fallout 3/nv

It might do something to stem the "it looks like PS3 Fallout 3" type shitposts, at least.

What I really want to see is PC on max settings. Preferably downscaled from at least 1527, if not 2160.

Notice how the oranges pop way more than the washed out colors of the images in the OP.

I hear what you're sayin.
