Unreal Engine 2.5 = The best

End of story. While it may lack some things the Source engine has, it doesn't ahve unexplainable fps sucking abbilaties. The graphics are great, no more than great. Not stunning, not ugly - but great.

 

[daschewy]

whats a good sound card. Right now I have a sound blaster live 5.1 card, but I want to upgrade to something a little bit better, like a ZS 2 budget card.

DoD:S, looks like toy story

As Buzz Lightyear would say...."TO THE REICHSTAG...AND BEYOND!"

Bring on RO on the Unreal3 engine

 

[jh1990]

Im guessing thats the engine used in ut2007

 

[The End]

Anyone who thinks RO has bad graphics needs to put down the crack pipe. Nuff said.

 

[ShapeSh1fter]

I dont know how anyone in their right mind could say that CoD2, BF2, or DoD:S has better graphics.

Dont know about DoD:s and havent played CoD2 in a long time but I have BF2 and on high settings it looks absolutely stunning - IMHO RO can't compare to the detail and textures in that game(not on the screenies that I've seen atleast). I'll gladly make some screenies, links to imageshack, if you dont have the game or just want to see how it looks. And this goes to anyone, not just to the guy I quoted.

Also, if someone could take really nice screenies in-game of RO, with all the goodies turned on and up, that would be better than arguing here on the forum. After all, arguing on the internet is like the special olympics - you might win but you'll still be retarded j/k...

If these dont please you, i dont know what will....

Nice screenies!
The hands and magazines reminds me of Vietcong I think it was called. Hands are always difficult to get right...

Looking at the released media -not having played the game- it looks good to me. The HDR especially should do wonders. Besides, I don't have a top notch rig, (P4 3,1GHz, 1,5Gb 400MHz, R9800 Pro) so I think it's more important to be able to run a game on high settings at decent framerate than having to crank all settings down and have the game look like Doom 95.

However it could in my opinion do with sharper textures, looking at the screens. Could someone get a high resolution action shot of the game with the settings cranked up beyond playable?

 

[revolutioN]

it will be sharper yep, them screens are with HDR Bloom on , it makes everything look blurry/more real. HDR off is very sharp.

 

[The End]

I'll be leaving HDR on. It does add a bit of softness to the image, but it also gobbles up a lot of aliasing and gives it a more realistic look. It definitely helps to get rid of the harsh 'high resolution PC game' look that can ruin many games. It's sharp enough to get by, and I'm certainly not playing any worse due to the screen being a little softened.

More map screenies of maps not in the beta:

[Dcode]

I might aswell throw these 4 in,

The detail on the weapon models is incredible. Hell you can even read the serial number on the butstock of the K98 rifle.

You may have to click on the image to scale it full screen. Do so its worth it.
Edit: Everything here is taken at max settings 4xAA & 16xAF. I took these on a empty server and i got solid 85FPS.

New maps are looking great

Glad that Kaukasus and Red October haven't been altered dramatically... those maps were near perfect to begin with.

 

[PsYcH0_Ch!cKeN]

I think I preferred the old PPSH textures, battleworn, scratched and dinged. This new one (same goes for a few other weapons) looks to clean, too perfect. It just doesn't look as real as it used to.
*shrug*

 

[Dcode]

I like the new weapon models. They have a much higher polly count too which rounds of all the jaggy bolts and scopes. Each to their own i suppose.

Look at the textures again... you can very clearly see traces of usage I think it is just becasue the higher polycount, the whole shape looks smoother.

 

[Kalashnikov Slamdunk]

the screenies revolution posted look JUST like cod2 in dx7 mode. in fact i mistook it for cod 2.

It would be great if people would use some kind of thumbnailing feature on the forums, like the ones on http://www.imageshack.us instead of mocking up the forum with too large images. Anyways, it's always good to proove the non-belivers wrong with eye-proof
