Some video games have photo modes where you can turn off such things

Photo modes usually use insane graphic settings that would never run at decent frame rates.

Devs need to stop doing this.

How about you post some videos instead of bullshit screenshots?

Yeah maybe on consoles, retard.
If you don't use Anti Aliasing in-game then your photomode pictures will be full of aliasing too.

Game looks like typical console trash.

Real talk now. Who asked for this game? I don't know a single person or have seen a single person ask for a sequel to RAGE.

Xbox one x.

Go dilate randy we know it’s you and yours brigading these threads

Because the first rage introduced idtech 5 (which was garbage).
But i believe rage 2 isn't even on idtech.

It doesn't just look "kinda bad", it looks like a last gen game with bland artstyle and textures, vaseline filter, 1080p even on the pro consoles, and no HDR.

Can't believe i spent 80 bucks on this low budget shit. At least the gunplay is fun

Can you make it better? Thought so.

maybe stop being poor and youd know most games look this good nowadays

I was one of the people that worked on Rage 1. I won't say which department. Second one looks like shit compared to ours, and ours was dogshit to begin with.

didn't they say they were going to focus on getting 60 fps over 4k graphics
seems appropriate for a shooter, and further shows limitaitons of consoles

>didn't they say they were going to focus on getting 60 fps over 4k graphics
Game apparently stutters like crazy on consoles during driving sections.

>playing on xbox
>1080p and low Settings so it can run at Close to 60fps
no wonder it Looks shit on garbage hardware

No seriously who asked for this game? Of all the games Beth could put out a sequel to a game nobody remembers shouldn't be high on their list.

Yes, there's a 60fps 1080p mode.

Not the devs fault consoles are ancient history tech.

I was playing Rage 1 recently on the xbone and it honestly has a better artstyle than 2. 2 doesn't even seem to have a proper artstyle to begin with, it's like they outsourced this game to china

Like clockwork

cope

The X can play a bunch of games at native 4K and they look gorgeous. The pro can play a ton of games at 4K checkerboarded resolution as well and it looks decent

>it has denuvo
Well shit, and here I was hoping I could play this shit within a day or two.
Oh well, I'd rather wait a month than buy anything Bethesda releases.

yes you seem to be coping since your console version looks like garbage unlike pc

>Not the devs fault the game is terribly optimized

I worked on the development of RAGE 2. I won't say which department, but your game looks like shit compared to ours. Brown shit everywhere, textures popping in and loading every time you turn around and it performed terribly too. Kill yourself.

at 20-30fps, not 60

Where are you seeing these PC in-game Rage 2 screenshots? The only things in this thread so far are a few console screenshots and some press kit bullshots.

>Of all the games Beth could put out a sequel to a game nobody remembers shouldn't be high on their list.

You are talking about the company that approved of a sequel to Prey. A mediocre game most people haven't heard of, much less played, and Bethesda agreed to finance the production of a sequel 10 years after the first game was released.

Not true. I'm just playing this awesome game on my Playstation four and it runs like a charm. It goes around 50 fps during driving sections.

Is this crap cracked yet? I loved the devs previous mad max game but I'm not giving zenimax any money

They shouldn't have promised 60fps then. They should know better than the average Joe what the limitations of console hardware are.

The first Rage never dropped frames on consoles. The optimization of that game (at least for everyone but AMD users) ended up being more impressive than the whole megatexture bullshit.

I kinda liked Rage 1, this one looks like too much over the top.

The new Pery game shares nothing in common with its predecessor other then the same name. They should have just called it Typhon like they were going to in the first place.

it's on JUST cause engine

It literally just got released and apparently it's using Denuvo which the developers never disclosed earlier. It'll probably take at least a couple of weeks to crack.

I was referring to one Bethesda cancelled. Even if they wound up cancelling the project they still spent several years financing the development of a sequel to a game nobody cared about and hadn't been close to relevant for a decade.

I see that mountain but can I go there?

They weren't going to call it Typhon (unless I'm missing something here?), it was being made under the name Neuroshock but then Bethesda and Arkane both went "wait, could we use this other game's popularity to sell more copies?" and shot themselves in the foot with that decision.

Oh fuck it's it gonna be worth playing then thanks for the warning
And there goes any interest I had in ever playing it

Call of Duty, Titanfall, Forza, DOOM, and Battlefield, run at 20-30fps on the X?

Never played Rage before. Is this similar to the Mad Max game?

Who fucking cares, old prey would’ve never seen the light of day, so nothing would’ve changed, your anger over prey name is completely irrational and considering the game is actually great it makes people complain about the name look like morons, in line with people complaining about the sun in cyberpunk

Yeah, I agree with that. The first one sure did have great design, everything looked unique - from environments to enemies. Every area was filled to the brim with detail.
The second one looks like it is halfheartedly trying to emulate what the first one did, whilst adding some "lol so random" borderlands humor into the mix.
Stretching the environments so they become big, empty and auto generated.

It's literally made by the same people

>Th-th-th-th-those are not bullshots!
>Can't post video showing same graphics in movement when asked
Just deal with the fact that when you are actually playing the game it doesn't look even close to those bullshots.

Couldn’t I just play Mad Max instead of this?

Mind posting a few with the UI up?

>And there goes any interest I had in ever playing it

Depends, do you prefer third person or first person shooting

No because even after cracking deadvuo shit it's buggy out the ass especially on that engine.

you could and it would probably be a better experience since they fucked up the driving in this one

>but then Bethesda and Arkane both went "wait, could we use this other game's popularity to sell more copies?"

It was closer to
>Hey, Arkane! Know that game you are working on?
>Yeah?
>How would you feel about calling it Prey?
>Why?
>Well, we already registered and trademarked the name and shit but we aren't going to do that other game so how about we just use it for yours?
>Sure. Whatever....

I don't know why you think Prey was a popular game that someone could leach success off of.

The vehicle combat sections are fairly similar but feel slower than Mad Max. The on foot parts are nothing alike, obviously. Mad Max was an Arkham-style third person brawler while this is a first person shooter that borrows from Doom, Bulletstorm and Shadow Warrior. Also there's a much smaller focus on vehicle combat this time round.

I actually liked the newest prey game.
Im just saying the name is the only thing the game shares with the previous one.

No it wasn't. I thought this too because you want to automatically think it's the big bad evil publishers, but the head of Arkane actually took initiative in rebranding the game as Prey. Some user dug up documents detailing this and posted them in a few Prey threads months ago. I have no idea how to find those now, but he posted them in response to me saying exactly what you're saying right now. Trust me, it was a joint decision between Arkane and Bethesda/ZeniMax. I didn't want to believe Arkane had an important role in this rebranding, but there you have it.

this, while megatextures were faulty at times it allowed them to handcraft areas with great nuance

this just looks like generic wasteland without any particular vision behind

sunset

I don't know anything about any documents but I did read an interview with someone from Arkane about Prey where the very explicitly said Bethesda approached them with the Prey thing and it hadn't even crossed their mind before that. That's not taking the initiative, that's just going with the flow.

The only one that is fun to play.

There's contradicting information about this so I'm really not sure what's factual and what isn't. The links that user posted seemed very legit and detailed the development of the game and the deal about renaming it, implying Arkane didn't just have this decision forced on them but were actually taking initiative in using an existing IP. But I know how shallow of a claim that is since I can't provide those links right now. I'm trying to dig something up, if I find anything I'll post it here.

There's nothing inherently wrong with open worlds. It's not a genre, it's just a type of design. You can have many different genres of games set in open worlds. This "muh open world" meme is retarded. Yes, many open world games are formulaic and boring but that says nothing of open worlds as an approach to game design. It just says that developers are lazy and will take the easy way if it presents itself. Ubisoft comes to mind.

I tried to like Mad Max but that game is all repetition after like 3 hours

I’m just wondering how you’re not writhing in pain after writing that drivel about that dogs hit of a game

Your problem is your shit spec console, not the game.

What game are you referring to? Rage 2 doesn't use idTech. nuDoom and Wolfenstein 2 use it and I didn't have any texture pop in issues with those.

Literal xbox 360 game. Fucking western devs are so fucking good at making vidyas.

My dad works for Nintendo, too :^)

noice skybox
where’s the game though?

shut up fag

rage 1 was shit
why did people expect rage 2 to be good

The best thing RAGE 1 did was the AI. I remember it was incredibly reactive and fully utilize the environment by sliding from cover to cover, some of the enemies could even climb up and down different storeys through open walls and rubble. If you shot an enemy could fall down and start firing from a lying down position as they crawled to nearest cover, things like that.

>implying Arkane didn't just have this decision forced on them but were actually taking initiative in using an existing IP

Oh I don't think Arkane was forced to do something they didn't want to. I just don't think it was their idea or that they did so because they thought the non-existent enormous popularity of Prey was going to help them make sales. I think they were just playing ball and they are professional enough to want to do a good job of things.

Well, Avalanche made a barren desert look pretty damn good in Mad Max so I'm surprised this looks that bad.

>thread about grafix
>immediately moves goalpost when the consoleniggers get btfo

I remember megatextures messing things up with Rage 1 when that first came out and I've been seeing some pretty similar things with Rage 2 from some of the gameplay footage I've seen.

Honestly, what game isn't repetition? You'll usually be repeating the same things over and over in every game you play, but with new variations being introduced as you go through the game. The question is, is the main gameplay loop satisfying? I could understand if you simply disliked the core gameplay of Mad Max and the repetition made you realize that you didn't like it. But it wasn't the repetitiveness itself that made you stop playing.

You got wrecked bro

Yep I pooped in my toilet 5 minutes ago. I scooped it out and played with it. It was better, lmk if you would like to try it

Apparently Avalanche's Apex engine has texture pop in issues too, but it has nothing to do with idTech. I actually wish this game used idTech 6 (the version used in Doom) because it's become an amazing engine. Rage 1 used idTech 5 which was absolutely abysmal.

I play on pc

Rage 1 was heavily inspired by Mad Max. Everything reeked of Mad Max and while it had some of its own twists on the formula, so does Rage 2.

Thanks for posting them, kind user. Mind sharing your specs and what kind of performance you've been getting so far?

except rage 2 is even more derivative because it never expanded on the things in rage 1 that set it apart from mad max

>I actually wish this game used idTech 6 (the version used in Doom) because it's become an amazing engine. Rage 1 used idTech 5 which was absolutely abysmal.

id tech 6 uses the same megatextures system as id tech 5. They didn't change much except for some shit to do with decals and PBR support.

I should have hated Mad Max on paper because it follows the Ubisoft formula down to a tee. Almost worthless collectibles, enemy camps that need to be taken over, towers replaced by balloons, etc. But somehow I ended up loving it. It showed me that the Ubisoft formula isn't that terrible if the gameplay is actually good. In AC games, the climbing is automatic, the stealth is shit and the combat pretty much does everything for you. In Mad Max the core gameplay was simply much more satisfying IMO so I didn't mind the formulaic approach.

I'm actually hyped for it. Shame for Denuvo so we'll have to wait.

because real time global illumination of high quality is very expensive most games bake out the global illumination offline, this is stuff like indirect lighting and shadows and what not.

docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Engine/Rendering/LightingAndShadows/Lightmass

Lightmass is the one in unreal engine for example.

So in horizon zero dawn they rendered out a LOT of these and swap between them as the day/night cycle progresses instead of just doing one.

simply put it is a design choice. tried explaining it few posts above. thing is that they went for arcade style shooter which "needs" color pallete that has its own charm making it more arcadey. it makes game more hyper, it looks better when there are explosions around and it makes it more hyper which in context links to anarchy/mayhem style of game. it is logical tho like said before it has negative effect on gameplay. it is just meant to be an eye candy-ish.

Aint western devs so fucking good at the latest technology

It's showing its age. Just because it runs like shit doesn't mean it's good. SimCity 4 still runs like shit on any system when your city gets large.

who gives a shit you dumb cocksucker? fact is id changed after about q3 and even doom 3 was already a fucking shitshow.

It happens all the time. And, same as with Crysis, the result is people whine about how "devs can't into optimization".

As soon as neural net enhanced workflows mean that you no longer need a human artist to make a 32k by 32k texture or individually model billions of polygons and take six years working on one character model, yes. Someone will come up with machine learning or similar that will allow an artist to get 20% of the way there and basically autofill the rest up to insanely high resolution/polycount.

There's no reason for it to happens anymore

DICE's Frostbite engine is arguably more advanced than Cryengine. Much better environmental destruction, better lighting, much better optimization. Now if only DICE actually wanted to make something in the style of Crysis 1, it might finally surpass it in its own game.

Honest question, is there a reason why Bethesda won't use this engine instead of Gamebryo/Creation? It looks way better it plays way better and it can run without crashing every 3 minutes

Devs really can't into optimization though. Games like Max Payne 3, Doom, Wolfenstein 2, Mad Max, MGSV and others demonstrate how incredible optimization is possible when devs aren't lazy fucks. It's possible to make a technically impressive game AND have it run well.

because their incompetent dumb faggots which were hired due to nepotism were barely able to somewhat learn how gamebryo works in about 20 years. you think they are going to have an easy time switching their assets and work chains to a new engine?

Probably a thousand reasons.

Bethesda are unironically incredibly incompetent developers and will stick to what they're familiar with. Learning to use a new engine is beyond the capabilities of Bethesda's dev team. Also, the Gamebryo engine is very moddable and since Bethesda leans on modding as one of their games' main selling points and relies on the modding community to fix the games, it's highly unlikely they'll switch engines any time soon. They'll just keep adding small updates to it and rebranding it as a completely new engine.

Battlefront as well. It's probably the best looking game of all time and its running on my shit pc with other 100fps at max settings.

Because this is harder to work with and Creation is literally just copy and paste.

No. The reason Bethesda's games are "very moddable" is because Bethesda develops them to be so and releases the tools they develop and use inhouse to make their games. The CK is not a Gamebryo thing. It's 100% Bethesda.

It's amazing how many of you people who have no idea what the fuck you are talking about still feel you are in a position to call someone else "unironically incredibly incompetent".

Gamebryo allows for rapid development of meaningful content. It is the reason Bethesda games are *so* moddable, not the reason they're moddable at all. It's also the reason beth games up until fallout 4 simply had more content than their peers.

>implying Bethesda isn't incredibly incompetent

I got to 4 minutes and turned it off, what the fuck is that intro? It's like a shitty early PS3 game.

You're the one that has no idea what you're on about. There are plenty of games out there that are just as if not more moddable than Bethesda's. Moddability in practice has far, far more to do with it than just what is literally possible.

Unless you're issue is pretending Gamebryo wasn't far better than at rapid content development than anything else because you're a retard with a game dev degree from the UE4 era that thinks that's how shit always was.

No, I said Gamebryo is not "very moddable" and it's use is not what makes Bethesda's games "very moddable".

You guys don't even really know what the fuck Gamebryo is.

>being played on console
>looks like console trash

Yeah no shit. I want to see some PC gameplay

Gabebryo is very moddable, user. The only way it could be more moddable is if it was fully open source.

Is it worth the cost?

>You guys don't even really know what the fuck Gamebryo is

Wait, is it not a game engine? Enlighten us.

>Unless you're issue is pretending Gamebryo wasn't far better than at rapid content development than anything else

Listen, retard, just saying "rapid development" over and over again doesn't mean anyone is going to believe you know anything. Unless you can explain WHY Gamebryo enables "rapid development" and how this differs from everyone else you can just fuck off.

Same retard always cries about people not knowing what a game engine is and mischaracterizing gamebryo to muddle the discussion. It's the Star Citizen defense.

I did. Now you know one.

MegaTexture is also the reason why they couldn't add custom in the game.

No, consoles are an anchor that will forever hold games down. That being said, Rage 2 doesn't look bad and 99% of Yea Forums nitpick screenshots and go out of their way to take un-flattering ones solely to complain about shit that isn't a big deal and sometimes not even noticeable.

doom3 was more of a "tech demo" for lightning/shadowing. view it like hl2 and valve/source.

Askhenazis aren't semites. They're basically Turks mixed with slavs.

I don't get why people harp on about compass pointers, all they do is make it so you don't have to constantly check the map to see if you've gone off course. So you're complaining that it doesn't force you to stop playing the game to look at a map to achieve the exact same result.

i am glad i am not human failure like you.

This game came out?
I thought it was cancelled?

it's a framework and not an engine. Engine is graphics and rendering, Gamebryo does more than that.
>I'm ignorant please spoonfeed me
It pioneered development tools which were far easier to use than pretty much anything up to UE4/Unity. Devtool ease of use is one of the most important factors in practical development speed. The fact that even the stupidest 13 year olds could make relatively competent mods for Morrowind or Oblivion shows this clearly. Just as if not more crucial was the .ESP and .ESM system, which allowed for a more dynamic and asynchronous workflow for largescale content creation than was easily available at the time for pretty much any other platform.

These days it's largely supplanted in these areas but UE4 and unity, but it's crucially far more moddable than either of those.

>but it's crucially far more moddable than either of those.
in a technical sense I mean*
UE4 mods are basically out of the question and unity is a clusterfuck when it comes to mods most of the time

Straight from Gamebryo's official website:

>Unlike engine solutions that require developers to follow a set integrated workflow, Gamebryo is based on a modular architecture that allows teams to easy modify, extend and re-factor the solution to meet the unique needs of their creative vision. This flexibility distinguishes Gamebryo from engine solutions built around a specific genre. Gamebryo significantly reduces the amount of development effort required to mix and match engine components to suit unique customer workflows.

That sure sounds like the engine was created with rapid development of meaningful content in mind.

Of course not.
Crack where?

No, it wasn't. The topic at hand was the claim Bethedsa is irrelevant to the modability of their games and it's all because of Gamebryo that they are so easily modded and that's what you just woefully failed in trying to prove.

Check out Metroid Prime 2, my proudest work! My upcoming game though will blow this trashheap away.

well, i played both the leaks and games on release. to this day i remember the design of most hl2 levels and barely anything about d3. hl2 had me bound to the chair at release and during multiple modded playthroughs, d3 i once finished and never again - despite multiple mods i had tried.

Yeah let's just make a game that require a $5000 computer to play at low settings for the 10 people who can play it. That game will sell millions copies, right?

open world is a very flawed concept at its very core since progression through the game is not as smooth as in more linear concepts.
For example you have the issue of unlocking and expansion of mechanics. In a more linear game you can design each encounter around the current state of mechanical options. In an open world game though, where those states vary a lot more you have to always balance it towards the minimum amount. Thus a lot of challenge and variety is lost.
For example in a linear shooter you can balance each stage to be more challenging and varied than the last since you know that the player has learned and improved from the previous stages.
In an open world game though, you have to keep the challenge the same in the entire accessible area since the player can tackle anything within that area in a different order.

(cont)
Now add in the fact that a player ususally improves through completion of activities within that area and you have an inverted progression where the most challenge comes from the beginning rather than the end.

Not that guy, but he said nothing about the memorability or quality of either game. He just said both games served as tech demos for the newest technologies being developed by both Id and Valve.

>My upcoming game though will blow this trashheap away

sure, but thats hardly a valuable point now, is it? everyone remembers doom and hl1 as technical masterpieces and great games, yet same doesnt apply to d3 and hl2 - only one was a good game while both were demoing the engine tech.

What you're talking about isn't necessarily a flaw. In open world RPG games, it's perfectly normal to encounter a dungeon that you're underleveled for, or one that's weak for your level. I don't think it's bad game design to have areas that you are unprepared or over-prepared for, that's exactly what brings variety to the game. You can also make mid to late game main story quests difficult enough that they also require a higher level and you can't just blast through it all.

most open world rpgs are in reality insanely linear.
>You can also make mid to late game main story quests difficult enough that they also require a higher level
The issue is that if someone decides to do more side activities than usual then they will have a much easier experience (potentially too easy) in later sections compared to someone who doesn't. This is an ass backwards design philosophy since it reduces the enjoyment for someone who wants to experience more.
Though this is less of an issue with open world design and more with how exp systems are fucking retarded and should be replaced by gear progression or other progression systems that don't break balance in either direction as easily

Also my rambling was more based on these more open games like most open world fps where you can tackle a lot of different shit (eg typically capture bases/camps) at once

>That's how navigation in games worked before there was a compass at the top of the screen
No. good games didn't even need a fucking map because they had good level design based around landmarks and objective locations were always reached by following guidelines based around said landmarks

They still had maps. Also, Mad Max, a game by the same studio as this, had very memorable landmarks across the map, making it easy to find your way around even if you didn't open the map. But it still had a map to make things easier. You have no idea if the map is well designed in Rage 2 and the presence of a compass is indicative of exactly nothing when it comes to the map design.

Just cause devs suck. ID too

>But it still had a map to make things easier
It shows to me that the designers didn't trust that their environment would be designed well enough to be navigated without external tools. Thus their level design is most likely subpar.
Same goes with rage.

Name an example of an open world that you think is well designed.

oh boy I can't wait to name an example for you just to have it be dismissed it due to unrelated, subjective reasons

not that user but I don't understand why an open world game with authentic difficulty doesn't exist yet. Just have a thing be tough because of what it does instead of stat bloat and powercreep. It's probably a memory issue that holds back devs from making something with a plethora of mechanics to play with and a large variety of enemies but if that's really the case why not just scale down the graphics? Its infuriating

>It's probably a memory issue that holds back devs
Laziness

I mean they're already making a huge game it can't really be laziness can it? The assets are already done all they have to do is make any of it mean something fuck. Im not even talking about implementing complex physics just script some fucking mechanics onto shit. FFS we dont even need true AI just fun scripted AI. ANything more than just fucking IT RUNS AT YOU OR SITS BACK AND SHOOTS WOW. Im mad

AND the fact that you need a Bethseda.net account to use the DLC that you've already PAID for.

Because open world games are theme parks, not actual worlds, the location are designed with a theme, after you complete everything, the ride is over.
>Go to a village
>husbands are dying and male children are missing
>the nun as an evil succubus all along
>The village stop "working" and just follow generic patterns for every npc
An actual open world game would require a dynamic AI for the NPCs, each having their own motivation and "main quests", which they will complete with our without you, maybe an dog just want to find a mate, and will look for a mate in his region, basically Dwarf Fortress "AI" in a 3D environment, and a dynamic quest system, the main quest will flow with or without, you will be the chosen one if you accept the quest, or you will just a another generic adventurer while the chosen one is fighting the big baddie without you.
Developers want to avoid this, because is not fun for most people, is not epic, they want to create generic power fantasies, not living and breathing worlds, they are not going waste resources creating content that 90% of people will never see in their lives.
Is pure laziness in the of the day.

Just add another point, STALKER SoC was supposed to have competitive NPCs, they would try to find the sarcophagus before you, and complete the main quest before you, iirc, was removed because tester didn't liked.
Most people don't want to play a open world game, and not being the hero, or the chosen one.

Like not even just rage 2, I havent played it but I'm sure its just serviceable gameplay. All open world games just seem like nobody stopped to take a step back and design the fucking game. Who the fuck wants to stop and clear regular ass bandit camps hundreds of times? Follow the compass to X then Y then Z amazing auto-pathing that removes my interest in all surroundings. Talk to this NPC now this NPC ok now pick your morals(this never has gameplay impact). NPC talking at you over comms, nobody's ever done this and it's so engaging. Even in Sekiro which I had fun in the stealth was so stupid you just cash in your free kills. Oh and sorry you can only equip 1 skill at a time even on PC. Miyazaki deserves knighthood for mildly attempting to do something more? CDPR deserves praise for trying to write a decent story? Nintendo deserves praise for making an open world LoZ that launches on the switch? The absolute fucking state of games
We had theme parks before though thats what levels and zones were don't devs see this? Open world was supposed to be, at least in the eyes of every sane user, the path to a true adventure you play in your style. Why is every single one just a railroad of shit design diluted across a big square? People don't find personal adventures fun?

I hope you aren't legitimately asking what Denuvo is.
But just in case you are: it's DRM that's very tough to crack.

>but I don't understand why an open world game with authentic difficulty doesn't exist yet
Like I said due to areas being opened chunk by chunk instead of smoothly like in more linear concepts the challenge drops as you progress within a chunk (since your character progresses with each success within a chunk while the chunk itself cannot increase in difficulty without cheap tactics like value bloating or really complicated solutions) until you access a new chunk.
Another issue is that open world games require massive budgets and thus have to be aimed towards a broader crowd which (according to the suits that pay your shit) requires the lowering of difficulty and simplifying of many mechanics.

Just how new?

Mainstream video games are all about looking good, not about making good games, every modern AAA game is just a watered down version of an old game, just look at TES, Daggerfall, Morrowind and Skyrim, rather than improve on the existent features, let's cut down everything we don't like.

>gen 7 tier

no it doesn't, wtf OP

>The assets are already done all they have to do is make any of it
Both of these aspects are connected with each other. New mechanics require more assets and work
>FFS we dont even need true AI just fun scripted AI
As FEAR proves good AI is not just dependent on programming but also just as much on solid level design, something that most open world shit fails at due to not being designed tightly but rather more simple and open.
Take a look at the environment that the enemies usually hand around in those trashy open world shooters and ask yourself: what the fuck can they even do aside from crouching behind a piece of cover and shoot?
Good level design is what carries a good shooter. Doom enemies are basic as shit but it's still a solid shooter because what mattered was the composition and positioning of enemies within the environment that forced you to utilize varied tactics.

That's actually a good point about the level design having enemies up on a hill or out in the open means just about the only real scripted AI that could be performed is group mechanics like a pack of wolves doing a hit and run or encircling you. I know a lot of the time devs feel the need to make new assets like animations or effects per mechanic but I think more people than just myself would be happy to just have a mechanic work. Like just reusing the same hitstun animation that's definitely already made, wouldnt that work?

psychotic asshole

>but I think more people than just myself would be happy to just have a mechanic work.
You're misunderstanding. Adding mechanics requires massive work in of itself, it's not a simple process. Also asset creation is actually one of the shortest parts of development. The coding department is the one that has to work the longest since they will be busy till the end with debugging and shit. This is one of the reasons why extra costumes and shit are a thing. The asset teams just fuck around a bit after they finish their work and add some extra costumes or other shit.

Fallout 4 is a great game.

I knew a guy who worked on Rage 1 and he came home every single day frustrated with how shit the game he was making was forced to be due to zenimax completely changing the culture.

It's exactly what it was marketed to be, which is Avalanche's Mad Max game but with Doom 2016 first-person shooty. There's a lack of any kind of setpieces and all the 'cutscenes' are pretty meh and feel kind of dated. It's exactly what I'm in the mood for though. No Rockstar bullshit of ambling through a fucking opening that's 2 hours long, everything crawling at a snail's pace.

The game starts, you start shooting, you slap on some armor from a corpse and after 5-10 minutes of exposition you're free to do whatever the fuck you want, which is shoot somes dudes. I got it for 40,- instead of 60, I'm enjoying it so far. Runs really smooth.

Some weirdos actually thought Rage 1 was good, somehow forgetting the terrible stories, missions, dead open world, terrible car races, etc

Tried it with a NVMe SSd and 1500 MHz DDR4-3000 Ram. Still had pop ins.

>muh story

i swear rage 2 is actually good
the shooting is great, and for me that is all that matters. i dont give a fuck about a story
the one thing that is not being mentioned is how good the sound is. on my setup it's one of the best-sounding games i can think of
i had zero hype for it, and only got it because i had to take the day off due to bad weather and had nothing to do. i like it a lot

Rage 1 unironically has better reviews and scores than RAGE 2, from both users and MSM.

Buddy bought it so I have it through game share. I've never played the first one. This doesn't look too good either.

>Boarderlands/Farcry is all I can see.

I'm not a fan of the graphics but how is the gunplay? Vehicle use looks uhhh ok.

Why doesn't Bethesda use id tech engine since the open world looks better than Gamebryo

The gunplay probably is the only good part of it.

I bought it, have about 5 hours on Nightmare so far. It's alright, the beginning enemies are bullet sponges currently because of no upgrades, but the shooting and driving feels decent. Only complaints really is the default controls for mkb fucking suck, the movement on foot feels really slippery and I feel like I'm always sliding around, and the soundtrack is honestly fucking bizarre.

how difficult is nightmare?

Not so bad, the game is pretty generous with how often you can use your Overdrive so I often have it when I really need it. You do get dropped quite quickly though so running and gunning hasn't been an option for me much yet. Haven't really done anything that's high difficulty rating either, so it might get way worse, especially when I'll run into the Authority again.

does it at least have andrew WK in the game soundtrack anywhere?

alright. i think i'll start on nightmare. i'm just worried the vehicle shit will be way worse than the bread and butter fps shit and will make me very angry. can you adjust it on the fly? i seriously have a bad feeling that the vehicular combat on nightmare will be genuinely unfair

Sure, give me 50 million dollars.

muh established code, modding potential, le wacky physics (picking a spoon up xDDD)

Tough to say on the vehicle aspect, I haven't gotten the parts to upgrade my car so the convoys are basically immune to me still. As for adjusting it on the fly it doesn't look like it.

Meant to edit but it auto-posted. You can change the difficulty.

alright thanks bud
ill do nightmare
oh word

It's 2019, twelve years after Crysis, and games still don't use POM on their terrains.

>that jersey guy growling the entire time he's on screen until he dies
fuck that was off putting
all the brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrttttt music was annoying too

>Hillary Clinton: GO RUN FOR SOMETHING, LITTLE NIGLET!!
lol cunt

WHERE ARE THE FUCKING ENEMIES

All these pretty screenshots just show it's a barren walking simulator.

>this is considered good by zoomers

It looks like a game I've already played one million times before

Glad I bought Kiwami 2 instead of this.

not a zoomeryoomerwoomerpeepeepoomer and it does look good

>open world
No shit. Stop playing literal trash.

Looks generic to me. As if I haven't seen this shit endlessly for the last decade.

>wow this game looks shit
>no it doesnt
>w-well the setting is boring!!

That doesn't look good. And he's right, it's completely generic and been done dozens of times already.

>That doesn't look good.
What's a good looking game according to you?

Literally every other game that has come out this year looks better than that.

Fucking hell at least shills post webms. I don't give a fuck about some boring fucking screenshots man.

what ps2 game is this?

Dude this phone I bought sucks
>OH YEAH WELL LET'S SEE THE ONE YOU MADE

Gotta feed the whole world bullshit. Takes a lot of milk

He's the same guy that posts those boring RDR2 webms all the time. Just go look at a tree or something, real life is super realistic.

Nope, just proving shitposters wrong who call this game ugly based on an Xbox One screenshot. Keep seething about the blue haired people that you get to shoot nonstop in this game though.

B A S E D

Graphics, setting, everything looks generic as fuck. Don't know why you corporate drones defend schlock every time. Elevate your tastes, elevate the industry.

looks like mass effect andromeda

>proving shitposters wrong who call this game ugly
How are you going to prove someone's taste wrong, frogposter?

Apart from DOOM and Wolfenstein there aren't any other games with gunplay this good.

Visuals are objective.
Example: if you say Crysis 3 looks shit you're wrong.

My opinion is objective.
Example: if you say I'm wrong for disagreeing with you, you're wrong.

saw pictures for the ingame cash shop system

thank fucking christ. I almost considered buying this game.

The bad scores are due to microtransactions

Gotta cut corners to achieve 60 fos on the potato consoles

Well yeah then look at this game, it's the best looking game ever made.

If I think that, who are you to say I'm wrong. You can't seriously continue to insist that your tastes are objective and anyone that contradicts you is simply wrong. Unless you're a newfag who took the memes seriously.

Bethesda: HIRE THIS MAN

Rage 1 was so much more appealing

Visuals aren't subjective.
There's good tech and there's bad tech.

Yes, they are. That's why artstyles exist and why everyone doesn't just make the same thing. You are patently retarded, and are making a non sequitur from visuals to "tech" (hardware? software? it doesn't even matter, you're a moron. lurk more)
