GTAaLEX117 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 sadly its safe to say when ign said the graphics looked like IV an every1 was bashing IGN for it even though looking now compared to the shots (and original trailer) back then to now they weren't far off. I'm not gonna cry in a corner over this b/c any real gamer knows Gameplay>graphics. But I'm starting to fully understand why PC>>>>>>>Consoles. I just hope eventually V is on PC so I can make that transition b/c I've seen the possiblities IV has on PC Um...even though the real game will probably look a bit worse than in the pre-release promotional screenshots and videos, it still looks a LOT better than IV, especially IV on a console.

Water Pipes Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 The downgrade is seriously awful and worrying, I'm wondering if it will run properly on 360 and PS3. A next gen/PC version is a necessity now. They would not make a game and release it to millions if it wouldn't work properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnocchi Flip Flops Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 The first trailer looks better because it was obviously edited. I mean it was gameplay but wasn't it obvious it was edited? The trailers that came after the first one were how the game really looks. @bud23, you're a moron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I<3GTAV Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 SO. MUCH. BUTTHURT. God, the gameplay trailers are how the game actually looks. And it looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trund Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I really wish that everyone who keeps bitching about the graphics would leave the forums and simply never buy the game, it's ridiculous how people that don't even know how to code a single line complain about something that stupid, the majority being PC kids or something pissed that it won't come for their platform currently. Heck I also have a PC that's much better than the PS3, but I don't complain about the graphics because that's just how it is and that's the best we can get for these platforms, does it really require an extraordinary IQ to understand that?

johnny_zoo Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Why does the 2011 GTA V graphics were better then now? Maybe it was a cutscene, but i doesnt look like a cutscene, what do u think? Obviously when its closer up then the leaves will be rendered FAR more clear and crisp. The second shot is further away which means to save on RAM the object is not rendered at full resolution. Calm down this is not even the next gen yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epicluca Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 The 2011 trailer screencap is way closer to the hedges than the 2013 screenshot. So the level of detail is higher, or it get's worse the further away you are from the object. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYC PATROL Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 For 512 MB of RAM on PS3 I think they pulled off a great magic trick. The lighting in this game just tops everything off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DS 17 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Mods lock the thread a lot of WD fans brings here! And they provoke. Ferocius Banger one of them. Is it wrong to be a fan of multiple games? Truth be told, I've looked forward to, and look forward to GTAV more than Watch_Dogs. But the fact is, the graphics have certainly gone down since the first trailer. But I can understand the performance issues that might have hampered that version of V, though. WD went through the same thing, the last trailer they released was pretty much clear evidence. Their previous game, Far Cry 3, looked even worse at release compared to the trailers. Also, this is what the OP and the rest of the complainers don't understand: Where is this screen from? Haven't seen it before, but it is looking awesome. I like especially the palms with the uncut branches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTAaLEX117 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Here's an even better example. Look at the down right corner: @DS 17 It's from the online trailer, near the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1LV3R_W0LF Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 As a PC player since Sega Dreamcast, I won't talk about graphics, they look good for the hardware handle them but light years away of what I'm used to, but this is what I said since the beginning, since when the first batch of screens where released there was a huge debate all over the Internet saying the game was Next Gen, knowing how the different settings of graphic details look for years those shaders, shadows and textures didn't look exactly possible on the current gen hardware. But people didn't want to use common sense and realize that. Wait for the release and the complain will be even more. And stop with "Gampeplay > Graphics" if that was true you'd be still playing in a GameBoy. The people that keep using this speech are just fooling themselves and trying to believe in it, when deeply they know it's not true. Anyway the only thing I find funny here, is that before everyone said "OMG you can't compare a photoshoped screenshot with a 420p compressed youtube trailer" ... now look at you, it's the complete opposite and the "stupid compressed 420p youtube video" looks a lot better then the screenshot doesn't it? A way or another, what was said here about LOD is true, when you get closer to those vineyards they will look a lot better but they won't look as good as the trailer either. Oh and for the last time, stop fooling yourself excusing the quality with the "Dev Consoles" they have the same hardware, they use the same technology the only thing they have more then the common consoles is the memory and that doesn't make much difference. They are used to run a few more "Appz" in the background to monitor and tweak the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonetoplaythegame Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 You know what I honestly find baffling about the graphics whining is.. I play games Like La Noire on the PS3 on my 42 inch screen with the HD cable and the game looks fantastic. Its great fun, Brilliant scenery and GTA V will be a massive improvement over that with a crazily higher level of interaction and things to do. I just don't get what people want.. do you want the graphics to look life like? Its a computer game.. the images I see look terrific.. Why nit pick on such little irrelevant stuff...

Spider-Vice Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Vegetation takes a huge toll on any system and I've repeated this several times. It's normal they'll lower the detail depending on distance faster than any other object exactly because of that, I think it looks terrific. Look at trailer 1, towards the right side of the picture: Same effect. let your hopes and dreams turn into burning fire!

R.F. Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 oh boy this again... current consoles can't handle that level of detail and get good fps, just wait for the pc version and we're going to run it maxed out with full view distance.

wwinterj Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I would play Grand Theft Auto V if it looked like this: -Snip- Hey Kingdom Hearts looks great! Even more so for a 10+ years old game. Back on topic though I like what I see in both screens. GTA V has good graphics for a game it's size. I doubt Watch Dogs on current gen can even compare.

kesta195 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Erm, maybe because the new screen is taken from high up? The vegetation will look just as good if not better close up than it did in the first trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0UDM0UTH Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 f*cking idiots. Current gen is not capable of a game of this magnitude without making sacrifeces. I mean, it still looks 5x better than GTA4. For this huge game these graphics are outstanding. Graphics whores just dont get the game then. Fall behind on what is easily going to be One of the greatest video game of ALL time. Everyone else? We'll be playing this in a month with no bitching.

Phantom PaiN Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 (edited) its the distance from a given object which makes the difference in terms of details,textures,rendering etc.....please search a little before complaining.... ur concerns have been dealt excelently here with pics and multiple examples which all makes sense...... textures explained (gta forums) Edited August 23, 2013 by Phantom PaiN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDayz Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 These are taken at different distances. Impossible comparison. Obviously the closer older shot above is going to be more detailed, as it's closer. Look it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
