PREVIOUS... TECH...?

Mate... ET:QW is about as high detail terrain we have now, and christ this makes ET:QW look like Lego.

Where your pushing that many polgons in a scene with the kind of interaction Crysis has, its hardly Last Gen is it

Sooooo Last gen...

Remember, you ARE supposed to play this game, not look at the 2fps. And for that, i think it looks fine.

Compared to this, it does. And ET:QW is our "current" benchmark. Doesn't mean its not pretty, i love ET:QW. But damn, this...

Since my PC is probably powerful enough to run anything released in the next 6 months or so, I think i'll halt my plans for a system upgrade, and just buy replacements when DX10 cards start to appear. I'm sure ATI and nVidia will have something out before christmas.

How is it? It's not even fucking out, it can't be current in any sense of the word. If anything is the current benchmark.

ET:QW is out in a few months, theres a playable beta in the next month...? Thats close enough for me. Compared to Crysis which wont be out this year?

Got any quotes from the actual devs about that?

pathetic...

At E3 there is a beta which means we get our hands on it in some form, however, the devs have hinted a few times that a playable beta may be out soon after. They dont want to make the same mistake Quake 4 did, i.e., let activision test the game. Remember the old RtCW beta days? Why dod yo uthink ti was so good... Its because we made it.

Either way even if the beta doesn't go public for a few more months, at least this is in some kind of playable form.

I'd destroy you on your own turf. You'd be so owned, you'd have to send your wife a doctors note exempting you from household chores for a month.

Please show me a screenshot from a "previous-generation" game with that kind of view distance.

Oh, and with volumetric clouds.

Um, and that is a good thing?

yeah...

here are some high rez pictures

click me

Its all very pretty. Lets hope they get some decent voice actors in this time though!

Far Cry was weak because the multiplayer was weak. The single player was quite enjoyable but with their engine they could have unseated battlefield effortlessly, but they didn't even try.

I'm going to wait until the quantum computers come out so I can actually play it without frame rate drop.

? dunno ? what ?

Ummmm... I read in the very reputed german c't magazine that the first generation of DX10 cards won't actually be fast enough to make use of it. So buying one of them would probably end in a big disappointment.

:icon28:

The thing is . Gameplay on most of these super-Looking game suck . Im just repeating what 10 other said already but its true.

What made quake 3 arena enjoyable other than the gameplay , Was the ability to modify and edit the games at will...

With the New generation of FPS , its all about the graphic , but i guess it what sell the most .. That the reason im still playing quake 3 arena .. UT2K4 ++ generation its not even close to what Q3 engine was capable of.
Counter-Strike still played a lot .. But Q3 is just unbeatable on that departement.(customization and pure adrenaline fun )I love to call quake 3 (The Speed FPS game)

I think gaming industry just want to push the limit to fast.Most machine cant run these game at full FPS .. THus the Gameplay take a hit in the face.these game will never be like quake 3 arena.You could run quake 3 arena on a toaster and still enjoy the gameplay and the game a lot .. without lagging like a monkey with 1 FPS.

Video card are too expensive . COnsidering that a good video card cost around 500.00 can and a console around 300.00 CAN with the same fucking graphic .. that make me fart anyway...

These shity game sell only because the graphic are shiny .. Quake 3 Graphic back in the day was shiny and still is( i still love the q3 graphic its a video game afterall)But most ppl could play it .. Now you need super powerful computer just so you have a average Joe gameplay and gay ass framerates without the ability of configuration quake 3 has.

No thanks

Are you kidding? Q3A ran like an absolute dog for most people when it was released. I wouldn't have spent years on a tweak guide for it if it ran smoothly on mid-level tech at the time.

And Far Cry was also a really good game in its own right. True, the graphics sold it for most people, but the gameplay itself was equally impressive.
