20 min. video of PC version


Recommended Posts

somthing that really disturbs me:

in all of the pictures,i heavnt seen any sign of AF or AA filtering

Um, I think they all have AA, but none of them use anisotropic filtering because the game can't do it, because it doesn't use mipmaps (so there's no distance texture filtering at all).

 

I would've thought they'd include an option to turn this on if you wanted to, but I guess that's too much to ask.

concerning the quality of the graphics, i am puzzled. in the ingame gameplay portion of the video i saw, none of the characters had ANY shadows, which you can also see in the grassy-screen before my post.

 

I havent read the article since i dont have access to the mag, nor can i read german, but it is possible the video and screens were simply taken from a semi-complete version of the game. Magazines do those interviews, and previews weeks before the mag actually goes to print. The PC screenshots from R* clearly show a difference as well, if in no other area than the character shadows themselves.

 

Thats my single biggest complaint, otherwise.....i dunno, what did you EXPECT it to look like? it has bigger textures, stencil shadows on the cars and dynamic objects, and from the R* star screens, realtime shadows for the player models. aside from that, its the same as the ps2, only in higher-res. yet many of you act disappointed.

 

 

WTF man.....Why are you all so worried about visuals? It's the gameplay that counts!

you have a point for sure, but the quality of the visuals can have an affect on the gameplay as well wink.gif

 

fun or not, if the player thinks the game doesnt look up to his/her standards, their enjoyment will be affected no matter what; especially PC users who spends hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on their machines; they want to feel they got their moneys worth.

Well, i can see shadows here sarcasm.gif

in the screenshot i mentioned, and the last 10 seconds of actual ingame footage i saw in that short video, they were not present. i didnt say they didnt exist at all, but they were not clearly visible in the media i referenced.

Actually there are shadows under the cars, you just can't see them very well..

Im gonna try to get a copy of the mag (they ship international mags sometimes) and Ill RAR up a iso of the disc, send it to a mod to see if he can host it, if not a link will be provided in 24 hours...

 

 

That way everyone can see the full quality of disc. I dont make no promises but Ill try my best. smile.gif

I dont know but i guess the shadows of the PC version will be lighter than VC's PC version, look at the cars's shadows from the official published screenshots dozingoff.gif

I've added them to a zip file: ftp://ftp.planet-multiplayer.de/sites/sanan.de/sapc.rar (30mb)

 

And a part of the viedeo, the whole just business mission in DVD quality, splitted in two parts, here the first (self extracting archive) http://rapidshare.de/files/2113273/part1.exe.html (direct link if you got problems with RS http://dl2.rapidshare.de/files/2113273/31789493/part1.exe) (24mb) and here the second http://rapidshare.de/files/2114173/part2-e..._first.rar.html (direct link: http://dl2.rapidshare.de/files/2114173/318...tract_first.rar ) (24mb) (you have to extract it first, because it includes the 2nd and 3rd part).

 

Have fun biggrin.gif

They are pictures of the video, not the actual game, thats why you see all the blur. Jeez, I thought people would figure this out already...

no, as evidenced by this topic, people are very very stupid, and quick to jump to conclusions based on a minimal amount of info.

Er, why are the screenshots posted as tif's? @ 3mb a piece, its simply a waste. you can get 99% of that "quality" by using high-quality jpg's, at a fraction of the filesize sarcasm.gif

 

The shadows are lighter yes, but the major difference is that they are realtime, and many objects in the scene are casting and recieving them. i would explain what this means and why its good, but tbh, i dont think you people would understand. look it up.
