Wow... This is one of those games that get you out of nowhere. I hope it runs well on older hardware (I can run STALKER and UE3 games just fine, not maxed out though)

Here is the best screenshot in higher resolution - goddamn look at the detail - DX11 *bow* *bow*

Hm, do not know what DX11 exactly does here, maybe tesselation. The rest is "just" awesome texture and modeling work.

In regards to texturing, DX11 introduced BC7 compression, which is really a whole lot better than BC3.

Wow I'm actually a bit hyped for this game now, thread has done well haha some amazing gifs :)

If the Aussie steam price was a bit more reasonable I'd get it right now especially with the cool bonus red faction guerrilla game. :(

Apparently they're using full tessellation on character models
Click to expand...

Figures. Tessellation seems to be getting quite a lot of support and is seemingly not all that difficult to add to a game engine, its a n excellent little bonus to add to the PC version of games.

This is an example of a game that truly came out nowhere. I'm quite impressed!
Click to expand...

I'd like to think its more of an example of a developer announcing a game that is actually ready to be released, rather then 18 months in advance when all they've got is an idea and a screenshot.

I imagine this game is going to be a pack-in with some Fermi cards. I'll probably hold off on it just to see.

I heard about this game a long time ago, and it caught my attention. I never really thought it would see the light of day, since it was announced so long ago. I'm definitely picking this up. I almost wish it didn't come out so soon, since I won't have the computer to properly enjoy it until after classes. :lol


EDIT:
Any detail on mod support? STALKER has mods, so can we assume this will?

I imagine that engine could be fantastic in the proper modder's hands.

I know some of the DX11 stuff is backwards compatible with DX10 cards (Like my 4870 can run games some things in DX11 mode, but not get all the features) Is there a list of what effects are enabled in that situation (I know tessellation for instance needs a full DX11 card)

Holy fuck at those screens.

Newegg still has it up for $36.

Hurry up and preorder before they realize they fucked up the price.

I think I'm gonna order a new GPU to be shipped with the game. I hope we get some solid nVidia pricing info by the time this is out.

How is Necrovision?
Click to expand...
Necrovision is insanity. It's pretty mediocre, so I wouldn't spend too much on it, but the gameplay is insane. Worth playing, and make sure you don't give up at the beginning because the game gets a lot better.

Graphics are pretty excellent as well.

Steamworks? Excellent. Now I guess I need help tracking down some online deals that would ship to canada. Because buying on steam is cheaper than retail over here.

I do not think there is a difference.
Click to expand...
There is a very big difference. GFW branding is a good thing all around with absolutely no negatives. It means that the game has widescreen support, controller support (for the most part), works correctly with saved game profiles and vista/win7 comptability, etc. etc.

GFW Live is the controversial aspect where it connects to Microsoft's Live servers, has achievements that affect your gamerscore, and require the 2+ week certification process for patches and such.

Weird question on Necrovision: How is the optimization? I'm running a core 2 duo with a 4850. Smaller dev studios tend to be a bit lacking in that department.

It's a 1C game. You have to custom optimize it yourself. Part of the fun.

Just fork through the .ini for long enough and you'll get it playing good.

it's the painkiller engine. it scales quite well. the new lost company seems to have gotten something of a optimisation overhaul.

I had that set up for a while. Game runs fine. Just don't turn on the SSAO and you're good.
