I have a hard time believing this is the final resolution. Just on first glance, there is a lot of jaggies. A LOT. Textures are really muddy. This looks worse than COD Ghosts on PS4 IMO. No way this is the final (I mean it is Alpha, derp).

Now that is what I wanted to know.

I now understand why MS spent the money they did to lock this first one up.

People saying it looks like shit/crap/poopoo must have never played an ALPHA before. I know I haven't, just Betas.. until now. :D

I've played plenty of alphas. Both real alphas, and "alphas" like this. It looks like shit, and it isn't going to improve much if at all by launch. That's fine, nobody ever accused this game of being pretty even on the PC. It has always been about the fun gameplay. I don't get the reactions drooling over those super-compressed upscaled screens though

Pretty much. Look at it's engine. It was never going to be a looker. It's the gameplay that will sell this game. No doubt about it.

Yeah it's bad. I personally think the 360 menus look better. I think titanfalls menus look right in line with ghosts on xbox one.

I wonder why IW didnt take advantage of the Xbox tech to render the menus at 1080p?
If the game cant hack it, atleast the HUD would be clean

*whatever*

Ill give it hope that they just turned the dial down for Alpha, they did say the intent was specifically for testing MM servers

I would think so. The graphics look unnaturally compressed tbh.

Sorry, but someone wanted to know about the graphics on a big screen TV. Just being honest. Obviously what matters is gameplay.

I just wanted someone to articulate why it looked good or bad instead of just having orgasms all over it.

Oh okay, I read your post wrong. Well, all I can say is, there is jaggies everywhere. Textures are brown and muddy looking. Again, I'm playing on a 55 inch HDTV. But I also feel like things looks unnaturally compressed. Like even the menus look strange.

I'm not that impressed with the art design either. I mean, I'm totally fine with technical aspects (like resolution) are lower than usual - if the art design is amazing. But nothing is that impressive. So it all kind of blends together and just looks very bland.

What was the download size? PM me if you don't want to break NDA, or whatever. Or, rather, was it larger or smaller than you expected.

I'm hoping they compressed the fuck out of everything to get the download size small.

The menu will almost certainly look better at release. As for the resolution....

From another forum:

it would also be pertinent to point out, any leaks you DO see... the textures were dropped to minimal to decrease file size download per Respawn. Supposedly nowhere close to final will be what people leak out.

Oh no...it has the over sharpening filter and crushed blacks filter. You can tell immediately here:

I feel like starting a new thread just to tell the Titanfall devs to take the damn filter off.

Yeah lets do another graphics thread those are always fun.

Yes please. Killer Instinct looks so much better now without that damn black crush.

God, I want this game. If it turns out being as good as it looks I might start saving up for an Xbox One earlier than I originally planned...

Any of you who have played ghosts on xbox one will see the similarities in how gross the HUD looks here in Titanfall. It's not compression, it's the xbox ones upscaler and sharpening filter causing this mess.

I dunno, do you guys really think I shouldn't say ANYTHING else in this thread? I guess we signed an NDA. I would sort of feel bad. Also, because it is Alpha, I think people tend to be a lot harsher than they should on it.

Like, while I think the graphics are pretty poor, I personally don't think the final release will look anything like that.

I've been telling myself that this or Halo is what will get me on board. If I can get a used console for >$400, I'm in. PS4 for multiplats/Sony exclusives and XB1 for Halo was my original plan anyway.
