Surprisingly good looking footage.
Everything else aside, it's pretty impressive how far the engine has come.
Look at all dem NURBS.

Ghost's actually looks rather pretty.
I can't help but say COD looks better then I expected but it's still not next gen worthy.
I played all 3 games on the highest settings with AA off because my rig can't handle that.

Battlefield 4 has some stunning enviroments but so does Call of Duty Ghosts and when you are just playing the game and you are not at one of those stunning enviroments, I feel the quality drops by A LOT, but they can look so much better when they decide to drop the Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U and only work on games that are for the Next Gen consoles. Just look at Killzone, that game is worthy of next gen because it looks as good as Crysis 3, most likely even better.

Finland GAF should too, if I understood the reference.
Yeah, Police dog Rex!

It's kinda sad that in almost every Ghosts screenshot, you can see the same hanging ivy asset being copy\pasted all over the place
I don't think either game holds a candle to Crysis 3 as far as graphics technology is concerned.
Let's do a Killzone vs Crysis 3 thread when that game is released

I download the ultra HQ video of KZ and while it looks good it's not at the level of BF4 or Crysis 3 (PC versions). I'm sure it looks better than console versions of BF4 though. Definitely the best looking next gen game I've seen so far for console
Surprisingly good looking footage.

It's not the same engine though...
Pretty sexy, eh?
It is, though. The IW Engine is a heavily modified version of id Tech 3.
Those shots from BF4 look very far from being on highest settings. The texture quality is really bad oO

In the same way that Source is a heavily modified GoldSrc (which is a modified id3 engine), sure.
Fuck logic. That BF scene looks gorgeous

Technically they are both the evolution of GLQuake engine. And that shows somewhat in such things as a lack of asset streaming in both engines for example. At some point they'll need to switch to a different engine or code a new one nearly from scratch.

Yep, exactley. I'm not exactley a CoD "fan" but I wish people would educate themselves on what an "engine" is, and the fact that many devs use modified old engines in todays games.

That looks really good to me. Don't get the hate about it looking like trash on all platforms.

I am not a fan of the way any of these games look. I really wish more games would use the Borderlands 2 style.
I am very fond of the "photorealistic" approach though I can take the stylized Borderland type game in small quantities.
These are Ghosts direct feed PS3 shots.
I think I threw up a little.
Please god, no.
See the post directly above yours. I'm well aware of what an engine is, thanks.
I lol'd.These are Ghosts direct feed PS3 shots.

Same here.
Though I would prefer it when games like Borderlands dont' use textures that are uber compressed and ugly as sin.
(Like every texture on every 1st person gun model in the game)
more like PeeU
IT'S A NEXT GEN CONSOLE TOO

I mean, this is a direct feed capture from The Last of Us:
The game's IQ actually did bother me, but even then I wouldn't say this pic makes justice to the game running.
Did you photoshop in those two characters in the foreground or is that actually real?

Yup, making any captures taken during any kind of animation these days hard to look nice.

They're two different ways of doing the exact same thing. Downsampling is just really costly.
Really hope that the next CoD has real time lighting.
Like I said in my original post I only have Antialiasing Deferred off because my rig can't handle it, everything else is on Ultra. Nevertheless I went back and took new screenshots and now they look better, I'm guessing it wasn't loading all the textures or something.
