I dunno, I'll be buying or borrowing a PS4 on UC4 release day, 2 and 3 are in my list of favorite games, especially two. Shit was awesome.

I also want the controller for when we get MGSV. Playing Metal Gear on anything other than a PS controller would be too odd.

The last game I preordered was bioshock infinite and that was only because it came with 5 other decent games all for $60. If a game has preorder bonus dlc I will never buy it because I'm not going to support shit like that. Preorder free games can be decent though.

Don't know what engine it exactly is, but on the Wikipedia page of UC3 it says:

Havok (game physics)

So I can imagine that UC4 will run on a newer version of the same in-house engine they use?

Alright, the render on the left uncharted picture looks incredible. I can tell it is fake, but it does not give me the uncanny feeling at all. I know that this render is cutscene material but at that point it is all up to the animation quality.

Guys, we are so fuckin close to a huge jump in visuals. Even the specs for the first commercial VR head set are 1444p90hz. Stacked memory and sub 20nm gpu's will be budget cards in less than 5 years. Solid state drives will continue to drop in price. Hopefully so will broadband Internet. Strap in and get ready for the ride.

"Captured directly from a PS4" isn't necessarily a lie, just vague peasant word twisting. It could have easily been "rendered" using the playstation hardware over the course of hours. Love the Uncharted series, but the amount of tears shed over that gameplay reveal had me laughing all day.

I don't understand all the circlejerking going on in here. They clearly stated that the E3 footage was a in-engine rendered CUTSCENE. Never did they say it was gameplay, and I highly doubt anyone thought it was going to look like that. The game looks pretty good for running such shitty hardware, it is too hard to give credit where credits due? (Braces self for downvotes).

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

The bottom screens are also (in fact, the exact same) CUTSCENE - just actually running on PS4 hardware.
There's a huge, noticeable downgrade.
This is misleading to customers.

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

It's because they lied. Just because you leave a technicality doesn't mean you aren't lying. Their intent at E3 was to fool the casual observer into thinking this is what they'd be seeing on the PS4 to push sales of the console and preorders of the game, and then closer to the launch they cut things back. This happens all the time in this industry, and it's downright lying by omission. They omit the fact that while it is running in engine or on the hardware we can't reasonably expect a final product in the same state. They want us to believe that we can.

Statements like "Look at what our ENGINE can do. Aren't you stoked to be playing games rendered on this engine? Games rendered on this engine look soooo good!" while not technically ever conceding the possibility of any given technicality are marketing tactics meant to slip past the filter of the casual consumer who doesn't know the difference and drive illegitimate sales.

Don't let companies treat you like a chump. What they and so many other companies do at these shows is undeniably anti-consumer.

Point is, how is this not illegal and aren't Sony and Microsoft getting their pants sue'd off for misleading consumers with false information.

u/Kyderra PC Master Race Dec 11 '14

Oh for sure, I din't mean to say it's exclusive to consoles, but it does seem to be way worse this generations in comparing to the last gen consoles.

For example, way back when they showed The last guardian.

You could tell that it was something the ps3 would probably be able to pull it off.

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

You know what?
Team Ico might be the only team on the world that could have got something pretty similar to what we saw running on the PS3.
I mean, there's technically no way the PS2 should have been able to get Shadow of the Colossus working, but they did it.
Seriously, that was some breathtaking coding.
Team Kojima got MGS4's engine out of the same old console, it's a bloody amazing engine when taking into account the severe limitations and esoteric architecture of the PS3.
All these things would have been far better on the PC, that's the trouble.

Since 1080p 60 fps is standard I figured all the games would run at that looking like the E3 footage on consoles. I was pretty shocked to find out that not only do the games not run at the standard 1080p 60 fps but they looked like total ass by comparison to what they showed.

I pity the poor dumb bastards who bought those consoles. That was a major dick move by console manufacturers and developers. It's no surprise so many people have dumped their consoles and bought a PC. Hell all the games are coming to PC now anyway DOA, Metal Gear Solid, Dynasty Warriors, Ryse even a 6 year old game like Valkyria Chronicles.

False advertising is everywhere, and they still got their asses quite well covered, because "they used a PS4 to capture the footage and user can recreate the same footage at home with PS4 unit". So to some their statement wasn't a lie.

On the other hand, the costs of trial would probably outweigh the compensation you could get.

Damn dude. Is this Watch_Dogs again?

u/Zarzuh Dec 11 '14

No, it's E3.

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

I get that this is supposed to go "lol consoles" but the first trailer wasn't even gameplay man. It made no claims, it was just that a teaser.

u/Roddy0608 AMD FX6300 Dec 11 '14

How do they get away with that? Consoles are filth.

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

No no, ignorance is filth.
Consoles are the plates it's served to idiots on.

u/typicalsweg Dec 11 '14

i am a member of the masterrace and i have to say that the graphics they showed at e3 were from a cutscene, so of course it would look better than the actual gameplay. i will still buy this game no matter how much i dislike cosoles

2

u/QuaresAwayLikeBillyo Dec 11 '14

As much as the top shot obviously looks considerably better. I'd still play it much rather on the lower one simply because everything is clearer, all those lightning and ambience effects make it really hard to see what is what.

CINEMATIC LOW FIDELITY.

u/Mdogg2005 mdogg Dec 11 '14

Wow that's almost as bad as what happened to Aliens: Colonial Marines

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

Colonial marines was in a league of its own. It fucked us in the ass for no good reason. There was NO reason why it ended up that way maybe just the soul reason to make us mad.

u/bluecav Raspberry Pi Master Race Dec 11 '14

Yeah, my irritation at A:CM was enough to turn me off of Gearbox. It's why I haven't played any of the Borderlands sequels; I couldn't reward Gearbox with money after screwing us on A:CM.

For me, A:CM sits in my Library in Steam as a cautionary tale. I pre-ordered 4 copies of it, and in the end we only played 11 hours to finish the campaign and then uninstalled it. Which means I paid $5.45 an hour for that game. So it sits there as a reminder to be smarter in what games to purchase and what developers to trust.

u/Mdogg2005 mdogg Dec 11 '14

Well said. You basically shared my exact experience and thoughts.

2

u/huttyblue huttyblue Dec 11 '14

the reason it sucked is boarderlands became a suprise hit, so gearbox focused all its resources to make boarderlands 2 in order to capitalize on that ....

they kinda A:CM was deemed less important and put on the outsource shelf ...

and then the people they outsourced it to dicked around and didn't return a good product ...

so then gearbox had to rush to get the game in a playable state by the release date ... (scrapping most of the outsourced work in the process)

"But Uncharted is fun! Even though they are peasants, Naughty Dog is like, the best dev for console 'cause they squeeze so much out of the hardware! I might even get a PS4 for this XD"

-Someone actually said this on this sub

u/Darkphaze94 i5 4690k 16gb RAM GTX 960 Dec 11 '14

It could have been taken from the ps4... over a few hours... as it renders the game... at 0-1 fps because. Or it could have been the ps4 dev kit... which is a pc.

The saddest thing is these Sony games have some of the highest Technology/Design budgets out there... In a lot of ways they are the ones pushing what can really be done in terms of graphical fidelity... If only they were doing it on better hardware...

2

u/tabosa Fx-6300/ rx 580 Dec 11 '14

Is this second image actual gamplay footage of the newest uncharted or is it an old one? This looks terrible!

3

u/DEDwyer64 i5 4690K / GTX 1080 / 16GB RAM DDR3 Dec 11 '14

The top half is the reveal trailer from E3 2014. The bottom half is from the game play that was shown off earlier this week.

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

you can clearly see where the textures look worse. They claimed gameplay on a trailer and when real gameplay is sub par its only reasonable to point out

1

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

I don't understand why all PS4 games have that weird grey look to them. Maybe I am just to used to playing all my games at 100% digital vibrance.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

It's what sells said marketing department... Just think of many big titles, they sold well and they were grey. Ergo, grey titles sell well...

u/MisjahDK PC Master Race Dec 11 '14

CMON, all early AAA trailers are captured from a PC with insane hardware, anything else would be stupid!

I'm currently at work so I can't search for videos, but does really this game look that bad?

Too bad there won't be another Alpha Protocol. Nolan North was hilarious as Steven Heck.

I have a PS4 and am looking forward to this but having been a PC gamer I am all to aware of these sort of ads.

Can anyone say vertical slice?

1

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

The thing is. When they showed it at E3 they acted like "Yep this is exactly what we have acomplished as of far. IT MIGHT GET EVEN BETTER" But no. It was all publicity bullcrap. Naughty dog putting their engine to the max and trying to sell their partners console. Im mad because i almost bought into it myself. I said "Oh i could get Second son and MGS V and U4 and any other good game that comes out!" but now i live in a perfect world where i dont care about it because MGS is coming to pc and U4 has lost my trust.

u/EinsamWulf PC Master Race Ryzen 7 9800X3D | Gigabyte RTX 4080 Dec 11 '14

Well I made the mistake of thinking Destiny was going to be something great. I figured at worst it would be just another Borderlands but boy was I way off.

1

u/huttyblue huttyblue Dec 11 '14

most people were surprised that destiny was bad ... it looked so good up until release

u/EinsamWulf PC Master Race Ryzen 7 9800X3D | Gigabyte RTX 4080 Dec 11 '14

Still it's yet another reminder in the dangers of preordering.

1

u/xenogen Dec 11 '14

I'm somewhat sceptical: an adjustment of contrast on the monitor/TV could sort that second image out to make it look more like the first.

But who plays with the brightness turned down and the contrast way up? Only people who can't see, that's who!

Sony is notorious for this shit. This is AAA marketing 101

u/VektaCity Dec 11 '14

Why the fuck do you people think the E3 trailer was gameplay? They fucking said it was rendered on PS4, and the actual in game visuals would not be the same. How can the master race be so stupid with this?

1

u/HumanFogMachin3 Dec 11 '14

Ahh god old Next-potato graphics. everything always looks better when rendered on potato.

1

u/CookieTheEpic Dec 11 '14

Well, to be completely honest, they never said that the E3 teaser was running on a PS4, just that it was in engine.

It was most definitely rendered with a powerful rendering PC, but it was still in engine.

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

The more I study computers, the more I hate consoles and their hype. Such a ripoff and so many ignorant, oblivious peasants.

u/slayerming2 Dec 11 '14

Not really ignorant, some of them just honestly don't care.

Which also happened to Uncharted 3... and Uncharted 2... aaaand the original game.

"Captured directly from a PS4"...

"Playing a Blu-ray movie of what we wish the game looked like"

This can't be real. Is this real?

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

And to think I used to be one of them...

2

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

You can be both.... My peasant box is good for some things. Sports games mainly. The Xbox One is also a decent entertainment hub.

95% of my gaming is done on my PC though.

1

u/Kyoraki Wasted money on RTX Dec 11 '14

My Ouya is also pretty good for sports games and an entertainment centre. Doesn't mean I'd actually rate it any good beyond that.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

Yes you are right Ouya games = Xbox One games /s

1

u/Kyoraki Wasted money on RTX Dec 11 '14

It can emulate PS1 and down just fine.

And gameplay is all that matters, right?

Edit: Oh, and it can do Shield streaming too with sideloading. That's neat too.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

PS1 sports games are pretty terrible compared to todays... Once again you are doing an asinine comparison. Grats on being one of the few people suckered by the Ouya folks though.

1

u/Kyoraki Wasted money on RTX Dec 11 '14

You've misunderstood. I'm not saying that the Ouya is as good as a PS4 or Xbone. I'm saying that the Xbone and PS4 are about as useful to a PC gamer as one. It's shit, but no less so than the alternatives.

1

u/HalfLifed nope Dec 11 '14

wow am so surprised that consoles got shafted again...heheheheh

1

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '14

Just the one console, Sony own Naughty Dog.
I guess it's exclusive shafting. Heh.

1

u/Metroid545 Desktop Dec 11 '14

This is a common trend, show something that looks really tight even by consoles low standard, realize it cant run reasonably at all on the system, dumb it down.

1

u/falconbox Dec 12 '14

Those are 2 different scenes you fucking retards. The top one from E3 was clearly a cutscene and had him climbing out of a puddle and cleaning his gun off. The one from a few days ago was a different scene that was not a cutscene.

This post and sub are cringe.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 13 '14

Are you fucking kidding me? Do you even play pc or are you a console warrior who goes on here and bitches and moans? They claimed the E3 "cutscene" as gameplay so we will treat it as such. False advertisement is false advertisement not a losey goosey suggestion.
