Every Remedy shooter has had a cinematic finish to the last enemy in the scenario. Don't know if that bothers some, if so could make it a toggle in options menu.
Litterally 1 second later and it's already much better
Graphics looks fantastic, as from the stream i watched so far i heard lots of time people calling it one of the most impressive titles they've played

That's just using the in-gameplay low-res character model. The cut-scene ones (which I think are still rendered in-engine as they've got some imperfections in shadows and other details) look definitely better:
Great if you look with a phone, try put those video on your TV lol

I did and they look great. You don't think so?

The combat looks so fun. I love really mobile, snappy TPS gameplay and this looks to capitalize on that in a big way.
I also really dig how the environments look. Like they are generally just normal, every day places, but something about that clean modern look, and Remedy's careful placement of light sources gives them a slick, appealing look to me.

Although download isn't really availableI guess it is provided in the format of a DLC that doesn't exist in the store system yet?
Correct.
I watched it on a 55" and while not crystal clear is still absolutely fantastic to look at, shitload better than other "720p" titles
Have you tried it?

That look better but still, the game is really average looking, the IQ in general is pretty bad even if the cut-scenes looks way better, it below expectations and it's probably the fault of the engine, now the game could be great so i'm waiting like others to see how the game will turn at the end, Remedy always delivered so there is no reason to doubt them for now.

Goddamn every time I see this game I want to buy it. It just looks like it's going to be fun as hell and interesting.
Are all QB threads gonna be about graphics now? I'm so glad I'm not a graphics whore. Sheesh. Anyways, glad that some reviewers here like what they have played. I look forward to the fast pacing that's been talked about. I like doing combos in action games, reminds me of Max Payne in that sense (how many bad guys can I kill in this one bullet time jump? Aww, those were the days). I'm so hyped for this game (and I was first really not into it at all because it looked generic...but now it has piqued my interest)

It's a matter of tastes, I presume. While it could have done better in some areas, I was really pleased with its graphics expecially during firefights. Really like it and, IMHO, definitely not average looking.
April 5th... April 5th... Why can't I get my hands on a time machine?
Yeah and i've tried a lot of game that on this forum have been smashed, this is too blurry and lack a lot of detail due to low AF and low quality shadow and texture.

Man it looks like so much fun to play with all the powers you have at your disposal. Can't wait for it to come out.

Nice.
I just want to see more dynamic gameplay. I'll watch the videos in the OP later.

No it's really not a matter of tastes. This game is objectively not average looking. The global illumination system alone is something that most games haven't even attempted to do, and the effects are just on another level entirely.
This is just another case of hypebole being thrown around before the release of a big game when people don't like the way it looks, but this game does not look "average". That's simply non-sense.
that look terrible lol... I'm not sure if people are serious or trolling with the graphics looking good, it's really under expectations besides the time effects, the gameplay looks pretty average too and the physics of the environment has no weight into it... on this two points, it's a failure.
I downloaded and paused the Gamersyde MP4 at that exact spot and it looks nowhere near as bad as that image would suggest. The example you posted is so compressed it looks like it's been run through a noise reduction filter, destroying fine detail and replacing it with that awful plastic sheen. Where the heck did you grab that travesty from?
Good post, and personally I dislike the pixelization noticable for sub-native resolution far more than the softness it brings.

Download the file to get way better image quality, the stream uses a far less complex encoding tech and a lower bitrate.

Agree with you, looks really good on the phone screen but in my 48 tv, the IQ is plain bad... It remind me FAST on Wii U. (My opinions are based on the Gamersyde videos)
You know you are looking at a compressed screencapture of an already compressed video, right?

Yeah, that part looked really bad to me, I thought it was kinda funny looking too. As I said in the other thread, cutscenes look nice, they look higher quality than what you get in-game, so char models look worse in-game due to the lower quality assets and blurrier details and resolution, well all due to the lower quality composition of gameplay graphics as a whole.yeah it look a little bit better on motion but blurry as hell too, there is many screens I've could take but this one was funny, just take a look at his hair lol, wtf is this ? PS2 mocap ? ( hyperbole here )
just wtf lol :
The cutscene animations however look bad; dead eyes, stiff skeletal movement, really bad and stilted facial animation. Some of the physics work is a mess and tying that to some of the less than stellar in-game animations, it's not surprising that the game can look janky as a whole.
Woooooooooooooooooow
Wow!!! look at that animation for shooting with one hand, the details in this game is outstanding.
Remedy are so good at this. I still think Max Payne 1/2 are unmatched for 'lived in' spaces which also function as action and gameplay spaces.

I am talking based on the Gamersyde videos. I know that the videos still have compression but you can have and idea.
I don't think it's DOF, just a screen grab that's been compressed to mush.
As for graphics toggles? Banishing chromatic aberration to the hell it deserves was an unexpected perk in The Division. I can only hope Remedy give us similar options.

Download the original MP4 file, it has a 35 Mbps bitrate, our stream is only 8,5 Mbps max, thus the compression removes many details in motion.
The review thread will have all of these battles taking place:
720p vs. Global Illumination
UWP vs. Win32
QB vs. UC4
Oh, it's going to happen. Let's get the popcorn ready.

That's not even a battle, though. UWP is an awful idea.

Are the cutscenes in real time? The VA and facial expressions are absolutely nuts!

and the devs
It's what I'm doing right now, I know compression can affect visuals, especially if we compare youtube videos to GSY stream but the game won't look like a different game without it...
