UE 3 is an engine that is completely wasted on consoles.
I don't know exactly how/why games journalists get them, but:BruceLeeRoy said:Okay so this might be incredibly ignorant but if Enslaved isn't on PC how are you getting those absolutely sublime shots Octagon?
TheOctagon said:360 debug kit. A rare pleasure of games journalism.
From the last page:BruceLeeRoy said:Okay so this might be incredibly ignorant but if Enslaved isn't on PC how are you getting those absolutely sublime shots Octagon?
Modified some settings on a debug unit, apparently.TheOctagon said:Debug code w/ hex edited coalesced.ini, 8xAF and custom mappings for various restored UE3 commands. Tiledshot x4 from 720p, then downsampled to 1080p.
Oh, it's totally working on me. I want that Enslaved however, not the versions we actually got. :lolBlizzard said:Maybe it's so they can take great screenshots and make people want to buy the game. It seems to be working on us. :lol

fizzelopeguss said:What is the debug kit, is it much more powerful hardware. (in otherwords is he playing with those settings at a decent framerate?)

The screens are still using tileshots so it wouldn't necessarily look like that in real time on PC, but it would be nice to at least throw some extra aa in there (if the game had any at all).
TheOctagon said:Phew.
Am I right in thinking, btw, that Enslaved is the first commercial title to use Lightmass GI?
brain_stew said:Even on old hardware like the GTX 260 you can still get "better than console" performance out of UE3 with 2x2 supersampling so achieving something similar to those shots in real time on a modern GPU should be a breeze especially if you're happy to lock the framerate to 30fps (which all UE3 titles allow).
brain_stew said:After playing the Enslaved demo I knew that it would look fantastic on the PC, those shots simply confirm that.
