Ready @ Dawn: "Graphic fidelity of The Order 1886 definitely exceeds the trailer"

Well, there are lots of bad games with great concept art. Not that this game will be bad, but the quality of concept art and the final game has only the loosest correlation, if any.

we've seen far too little. a 2-min trailer and some featurette from gameinformer than didn't show the game. any game can look interesting in those circumstances. watch_dogs, remember me, a lot of games were "interesting" when they were first teased/shown. we need much more info, and we have none.
again, we've seen far too little. everything can sound good on paper, and look good on concept art.
then again, this is my most anticipated ps4 game. okay, it's under uncharted but i'm more excited about rad's game than infamous.
None of that seems to be remotely the case though, from everything we've seen, heard and read thus far. Quite the contrary in-fact. The lore, characters, weapons, setting etc, everything looks super enticing and well executed. Even their damn names and outfits for heaven's sake. And this
As a semi-Londoner myself (home away from home), this just calls out to me.
Except that the first looks like Paris and the third looks like New York.
I really don't think they've nailed London in this art, unfortunately.

Exceeds!?!?!?!
Damn! That is quite a claim!
I hope that comment doesn't come back to haunt them.

Show us some gameplay.

I want this image to be representative of the actual game playing experience, and not just some ambitious piece of concept art. Wandering around in an environment like that, with all the hustle and bustle that comes with it, would be a dream.
I just don't want it all to be shooting at lycanthropes in empty streets.

Please, continue..
This is not a troll post and it's very cool if they can get the graphics to look even better than the trailer (which blew me the fuck away), but I already know that the black bars are gonna annoy the shit out of me. It'll be viewed as a disappointment no matter what the reason is given for it being there. I hope that it's only 1920x800 for the cinematics and not the actual gameplay.
Besides that, If the game turns out to be good then it might just be the reason for me to get a PS4 now rather than later (waiting for Uncharted). It has that system selling potential like Bioshock did for me with XBOX 360.
Very hyped, indeed.

Bums me out so much. lol
Just for the record, everyone should check out this actual colour film of London in 1927. It's fascinating and is at least closer to this time period than we have context for today.

This is going to be my first Sony console so I don't these things; what has this team done in the past, what's their track record?

I hope if the reports are true of this PS February event deal happening that one of the first things they plan for it is to show us the gameplay for this game.
Its long overdue for a preview.

The bold is exactly how I feel. It has that first time wonder that Bio1 did for me and if it can live up to what theyve showed and told us so far ill be an incredibly happy man.

No, former blizzards, actually. They've sort of been tutored by Naughty Dog, though.

Well, considering the hardware you'd hope it'd be better.
Daxter PlayStation Portable 85/100 (metacritic)
God of War: Chains of Olympus PlayStation Portable 91/100
Ōkami Wii 90/100
God of War: Ghost of Sparta PlayStation Portable 86/100
God of War: Origins Collection PlayStation 3 84/100
DD couldn't even keep a solid framerate with the lower res, shit was cray. Yep.
I've seen that movie before, it's massively cool.
I think they've got the smogginess right at least.

Which reports are those? Are they having another Playstation event this coming February?
If so I'd say that pretty much guarantees we won't see anything on games like The Order and Uncharted for at least another 2 months.
He was talking the actual gameplay and game being good lol.

Graphical QUALITY. That's really all it means. CANT WAIT FOR THIS GAME. To think about how many exclusives are coming next year for Playstation..... :O
Nah, looks pretty accurate to me. It's not supposed to be exacting, it's supposed to be Sherlock Holmes era esque, only slightly Steam Punk or with just a touch of modernism infused.
Top one absolutely looks like an olden day Oxford Circus style setting, bottom one Westminster, St Pauls etc, only if they'd had more modern technology and advancements available to them at the time than they did in real life. They just need a more layered and developed version of this.

Even waiting until late Feb. is kind of absurd. Game was revealed at E3 and shown behind close doors with the press bragging about it. We get a few pics and info from Gameinformer with them bragging about seeing footage and claiming it's the most next-gen thing ever. We were supposedly going to get footage at VGX but somehow footage wasn't ready.... Now they are cock teasing about the game looking better than the reveal and the only glimmer of hope we have of seeing the first gameplay footage is late Feb at Destination Playstation.
That will have been 8 and a half months since it's reveal. Really sick of these trends. Stop announcing games you have no intention of showing to the public so damn early.
That video has huge black bars for me.

It's still 1080p regardless.
hyped for the game, I like the setting. I don't think I'll mind the black bars since I'm on a big screen and sit pretty close, but 30 fps and black bars isn't very impressive. This shit better be like Mario 3d world where the frame rate never drops below 60, or in this case 30.

Depends on the developer really.
Even not exact, the art should still be evocative of the setting. I don't really get that from a lot of this. The first shot screams 'Parisian' to me (although this is possibly just because London is very changed), but the overhead rail lines and street signs of the third are conspicuously American (New York or Chicago) looking. London is also famously low-rise; so the skyscrapers are hugely out of place.
If I didn't know this game was set in London, I wouldn't guess it from some of this art. One of them has St Pauls in; that's a bit of a cheat. The docklands one is cool though.

Alternate history with different technology. So for example the whole theme seems to be about some vampire/werewolves, which is why the trains are built above ground instead of the London Underground

30fps? That's some bs right there. Better be some mind-blowing graphics then.
Your interchange of Victorian London and Modern London as the one and the same is troubling. We have advanced in the last 200 years, you know.
How is the sub 1080p bs? If you have a 1080p tv, there will be 1:1 pixel mapping. There is no stretching of pixels to fit your tv resolution.
