THE HYPE IS REAL, SOMEONE HOLD ME

 

[Seligrafo]

Those colors are so pretty holy crap. HYPE.

 

[jett]

dat last-gen polycount

still looks good, all's forgiven in the name of glorious 60fps.

 

[Kayant]

So I guess that means this is the PS4 version, lol

Yep was able to say why not just put PS4 in the title?

OT - The second one looks almost "filmic" before you zoom in.

 

[Adnor]

Now I believe the theories that Punished Snake isn't Big Boss... HE'S AIMING WITH HIS GOOD EYE!

 

[dan2026]

I can't believe people are moaning about the graphics when it looks this good AND runs at a steady 60fps.

 

[RedAssedApe]

I WANT THIS BADLY.



Yup. Play PW and you will find out the fate of that cybernetic hand.

ah i totally forgot about this part

Spoiler

Following ZEKE's destruction, Big Boss retrieved Vladimir Zadornov's prosthetic hand to use as a cigar lighter.

lol...i guess he found another use for it.

 

[i-Lo]

The fingers reminds me of FFXIII. Then again, it is a cross gen game (which is running at 60fps and has great lighting).

 

[E-Cat]

Big Boss has very angular fingers.

Dat Fox Engine.

Dat chiseled looks.

Technically it's the wrong hand to replace for BB's missing arm, but it could just be a different model that Ocelot gave him. Zadornov's had USSR branding.

THE HYPE IS REAL, SOMEONE HOLD ME

The hype is way too real right now, yo. HOLD ME, MAN!!

 

[G-Fex]

WOW

I want ;-;

He has (

had

) an R&D team that could work wonders, so switching hands should be no issue.

 

[Clockwork5]

Get rid of the dithering please. Looks terrible.

Also, get some ambient occlusion in there.

There is AO. Its apparent on the clothing.

You said?[/QUOTE]

Is Beyond a game with a huge open world?

Anyway, Konami should really fix the dithering. Unfortunate they don't have better looking models for current gen consoles.

 

[dmr87]

Ground Zeroes is one of the best looking console games so far because of its rock solid 60 fps, along with the awesome animations.

This is going to be so good.

 

[Chinpoko_Master]

After seeing other next gen games, this game doesn't really look impressive anymore.

Partially:

 

[Spaghetti]

looks nice and clean.

 

[Kinyou]

Fox engine is all about the transparent clothes anyway

 

[Love Deterrence]

Agreed! Also, in the new (albeit brief) gameplay demo, it appeared that several concerns had been addressed, such as pop-in and textures (specifically ground textures). So, they are definitely brushing up the engine as they go along. It's beautiful!

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Am I the only one not overly impressed by how this or GZ looks?

I mean, they look ok. Just not....you know, great. Maybe screens don't do them justice.

 

[LeBart]

Big Boss has very angular fingers.

Dat Fox Engine.

Whatever gets them to 1080/60.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Guess it isn't strong enough for my tastes, or the implementation is odd. Either way, dithering complaint still holds.

I don't recall them mentioning anything about pop-in.

 

[mrqs]

Did you not play this on the PS4 with a big ass screen or...?

I've played Ground Zeroes on my PS4 and it was not impressive at all. Hopefully The Phantom Pain will be a bit more polish, but, for me, MGSV it's far from a Next-gen game or even an impressive Last-gen game.

That's not a bad thing, i don't really care and i really enjoyed Ground Zeroes and will play The Phantom Pain for sure, but Kojima keeps marketing the Fox Engine as an absolute beauty and it's not.

 

[Love Deterrence]

I don't recall them mentioning anything about pop-in.

It wasn't something they brought up, it was something that was noticeably missing from The Phantom Pain. In Ground Zeroes, bushes would pop-in would occur right underneath Snake's feet, for example.

 

[Gestault]

Partially:

That segment was "open" in the most superficial way imaginable. I don't think the play-areas and interactions are comparable, based on even just what we saw in Ground Zeroes.

 

[blacksark]

This is going to be the 2015 GOTY without any doubt. My favourite franchise ever, can´t wait to see the e3 trailer although I don't want to see it as there will be lots of spoilers.

 

[Barakov]

The shrapnel coming out of Big Boss's head looks pretty narly.

 

[VisceralBowl]

I played through the game again recently, that area does look pretty rough.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

What's been seen cannot be unseen!

And they're in complete contrast with his face.

Yeah next gen face with PS2 finger is weird

 

[HeelPower]

Is a release date expected for the big thing at E3 ?

Would be sweet~

 

[RedAssedApe]

not an open world at all.

Not even impressive for last gen? The fuck?

 

[Betty]

Partially:

No, not partially, you are restricted the whole way, the path is as linear as it gets, you have next to nothing to interact with like AI or jumps or anything like that and your actual abilities amount to being able to get on the horse, ride it and get off it.

I'm not doubting Quantic Dream's graphical capabilities, but when you have so little input and actual control over a game I don't find it that impressive when you manage to pull off amazing graphics.

MGSV has undoubtedly being hindered graphically by being a cross gen game, but it's art style and most importantly of all, gameplay, will hopefully make it pretty damn special.

 

[The Crimson Kid]

Looking pretty nice. Like GZ, not the best looking next-gen game around, but it will more than suffice.

One thing though: They need to use some of that MGS4 moustache tech on those beards in the close ups. It's kind of baffling that the facial hair looks sooo poor here when the same studio already nailed it in their last game!

 

[ichtyander]

Am I the only one not overly impressed by how this or GZ looks?

I mean, they look ok. Just not....you know, great. Maybe screens don't do them justice.

I know what you mean, I'm not really impressed either but the graphics are still pretty good it's just not as impressive as MGS4 was back in 2008. If you compare something like The Order: 1886 and these screens, there's a difference. I'm not complaining though, can't wait to play TPP.

 

[Neuromancer]

Yikes. These screens are rough. Some mip mapping and tri linear filtering would go a long way.

 

[Nizz]

Whatever happened to the word 'that'. I miss that guy.

Also, I second this. Want 1080p 60fps? Don't bitch when it means games look less glamorous.

Yep. The fact this game to me looks great and it runs at 1080p/60fps seals it.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

this game will occupy my gaming time 200% more than ground zeroes. cannot wait

I play GZ on PS4 on a 55" Samsung 240hz TV. I have to respectfully disagree with you about it not looking amazing. To each their own.

It wasn't something they brought up, it was something that was noticeably missing from The Phantom Pain. In Ground Zeroes, bushes would pop-in would occur right underneath Snake's feet, for example.

Oh I recall the pop in. I STILL play GZ all the time (everyday!), but saying pop in is totally gone after seeing that less than 2 minute demo is a bit jumping the gun. I hope you're right, though. I really don't want any pop in during TPP.

 

[TheUntamedLegend]

that red glove looks familiar...wasn't that something in peace walker?

It's similar but Big Boss's prosthetic is the opposite hand.

 

[legacyzero]

Looks great!

 

[Love Deterrence]

Yeah, I was saying that it appeared to have been fixed (at least to a certain extent). You couldn't walk a foot in Snake's shoes without that pop-in. Doesn't stop me from loving the game; I'm right there with you, I play it every day, as well. They said back in 2011 that they would be brushing up the engine as they go along, so it wouldn't be too far-fetched to think that they can work out little graphical kinks as the game nears completion!

 

[boinx]

You said?

Beyond is a great looking game for sure considering the hardware but it isn't an open world game and has black bars taking up the screen to maintain a better framerate. And it has the benefit of having been developed for one console only.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

You said?

Hot damn PS3 could run games at 4K downsampled and at 60fps. What a beast.

 

[mrqs]

Not even impressive for last gen? The fuck?

Yep. In Ground Zeroes the shadows, overall textures (really terrible), explosions (worse than CoD, really) and pop-ins are REALLY bad. For me, a Next-gen game must be better looking than any great looking Last-gen game. Ground Zeroes on PS4 is not better looking than, for exemple, Uncharted 3 (keeping the resolution and anti-aliasing aside).

I'm not saying that's a bad game, i don't even care that much actually, it's just technically not impressive and Kojima keeps marketing that it is.

 

[Boss Mog]

People like to diss Japanese devs these days, but I see a great looking game that runs at 1080p/60fps on PS4, so Japan has still got it in my opinion. Can't wait for this game and whatever Platinum's first PS4 game turns out to be.

 

[gorfyako]

One of these days I'm going to get around to playing through Peace Walker. I started it sometime last year on the 360, but never got past the first chapter, I think. Sucks as I'm hyped as all fuck for Phantom Pain. That trailer was A+ material and I'm sure I'll buy it day one. I don't see how any other game can stand up to Phantom Pain in 2015.
