Aliasing: Just the Fact of Life for 720p Displays

See all those pixel jaggies on all that high detail goodness in the mid clip? Yea, you see it, see those cranes? See how their legs go "black/white/black/white" - yea, those aren't multicolored up close lol. When the camera moves, those are going to look like they are spinning and static objects are going to be jumpy and spinner-looking all over the map at console resolution.

 

Screenshot looks great, but in motion, that is going to be a mess of pixel-fighting and super ugly. It's going to be ever-present jaggie-land.

 

This game will be unplayable for me at 720p. I will pass this game until I can play it at higher than that resolution.

 

You?

 

Before you decide: I suggest look at the image in its own tab, hold CTRL+Scroll to zoom in til it is fullscreen. That is what the game will look like at that resolution on any tv bigger than the screenshot.

It's pretty extreme to say that jaggies will make this game UNPLAYABLE...

That's one issue I have come to terms with in this console cycle.

Xbox 360 games upscaled from 720p to 1080p look pretty nice on my TV. That's with all the processing turned off as I like the image to be natural. However 720p on a 1080p computer monitor looks bad without anti-aliasing. In summary, this game will look ok. Don't go by compressed YouTube videos.

Holy cow. Are you for real? I actually had to look hard to see any bad aliasing on the bridge and everything. Trust me when i say that if you think this is bad aliasing..you haven't seen certain other games on the consoles. This looks fantastic.

Jaggies are a bad thing yes, but what's worse is FPS drops with jaggies which most likely, or hopefully wont happen a lot in GTA V from what we've read. So it's all good..

Maybe it's a hot day and that's the wavy effect you get when looking at things over distance in high temperatures. moto_whistle.gif

Poor OP.

 

Thinking graphics are more important than gameplay...

 

For that reason, I'm glad you won't enjoy this. You don't deserve to either mate.

 

Also, 'jaggies' aren't a problem. If something like that bothers you, then I suggest suicide because that's pathetic.

You know what? I've never been that focused on graphics, but brian. I must say you've totally opened my eyes. Screw V, those jaggies are hurting my poor little eyes. V will be unplayable now because of that minute detail. f*ck you cockstar! *shakes fist in anger* I'm gonna play COD instead, its a far superior game to grand theft auto anyway suicidal.gif

F**k anti aliasing look at that water!

That water (in this screen shot) is exactly the same as IV water just different settings in hue and maybe the noise/normal for it is different tounge.gif

 

But yes, I am very excited for the open waters/alamo see waters and their bigger wavy areas biggrin.gif

 

Also very excited for the flow maps, the little streams and rivers, gonna be aweosme.

 

@all I'm not let down by the quality of the game in entirety, I just know it will never look good at 720p and requires higher resolution to really see the world in its true glory. It will require either a next-gen release or pc release to get the actual view of this game world, on 720p, we can see only close up stuff clearly, everything else is going to be really jaggy and smudging them is only smudging them - the screen simply doesn't have enough pixels to display the detail.

 

That's a good thing. It shows just how much they do. But I won't be able to play until it's bigger resolution on my PC or on new console.

 

Zoom into the pic so it is fullscreen on your pc. those screens only look good cause they are 1:1. The bigger your tv is, the worse this game will look. So the only answer to that, is more pixels. Higher resolution.

Thanks OP, not for the thread but for this screen. First time I see it, are there more like these?

 

As for your issue, I read some guy review that was in Rockstar HQ that said the game looked great but wasn't exactly like the screenshots show, but to be honest and being a PC player and seeing my brother playing GTAIV in XBOX360 and trying it myself, I think V looks light years better then IV did with that ugly filter. Even that water reflection is better then the one I remember in my PC in 1080p with very high settings. In IV it looked like a giant static mirror, here it's all wavy and distorted, like real water. And look to all those boats and the size of that colossal bridge... there is so much that I doubt anyone will even notice those small details.

Yeah, the lack of AA is hurting consoles BADLY now. The jaggies are BAD. The console kiddies can live in denial but that bridge is YEESH.

 

But the game'll be really good anyway--I definitely need to build a PC for when I get the PC version, tho

Anyone who believes the OP will not buy the game on day one is a full blown retard.

Well then, it's a good job the focal point of the screenshot is Franklin and what he's doing
