[QUOTE=bord2tears;44372250]Lots of hype in the video. Though I wonder if that was PC or PS4 graphics.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=hl2poo;44372127]There are augmented reality gamemodes you can play using the ingame phone apps. There are aliens, robot-like dudes, that spider mech, zombie/demon mode, and probably others as well. They're not actually a real thing in the game's universe.
At least, I hope not.[/QUOTE]
this is the VR thing.

the robot doesn't look like it fits the aesthetic they are obviously going for with the VR stuff, really gutted if fucking robots like that get thrown in.
This game seems too good to be butchered with robots be forcefully injected into the plot. I hope it's just part of some AR minigame.
made this for gta iv

screenshot of unannounced minigame from beta. the guy who took the picture decribes it as "a minigame where you bounce around the city on psychedelic flowers (minigames are accessible from your in-game phone). I took a pic of that one because it was hilarious"
Don't know if late but turns out that "Chicago" trailer footage was from PS4

This could be what they meant to do all along. We just didn't know it before. Sometimes game developers don't make disappointing decisions "forcefully" because of executive meddling or something, they do it because they think it's a good idea and fits their vision.

That looks incredibly average, really dissapointing.
Yup I didn't really see anything special graphics-wise in that video.
That footage doesn't look any different from the console trailers we've seen, so I honestly doubt it's on PC.
would have thought that with all the wind simulation, they'd be able to make the water flow in the direction of the wind.
I was gonna say it but didn't exactly think I should, but may as well since seems others are.
Yeah, even the PC version has taken a graphical knock.
So while the footage from many of the recent trailers may have been from the PS4, there is still a noticeable drop in the quality. It still looks really good but as has been said by people like Jimquisition, they've still mislead people about it.

Well, the original video has been taken down from the website. People asked for a statement from the news editor, he replied:
[QUOTE]
Ich kann das aufklären. Offiziell muss ich sagen, dass das Video aktuell überarbeitet wird und solange offline bleiben muss. Und dass das doch nicht die PC-Version war, sondern die PS4-Version.
Inoffiziell kann ich sagen, dass wir nicht ohne Grund gesagt haben, dass das die PC-Version sei. Das erfinden wir ja nicht. Aber es ist halt die PS4-Version. Not our fault. Unschön für euch. [/QUOTE]
Translation:
[QUOTE]I can clarifiy this. Officially I have to tell you that the video is being "re-edited" and for the time has to stay offline. And this wasn't the PC version, but the PS4 one.
Unofficially I can tell you that we didn't call this a video of the PC version without a reason. We just don't make that up. However, it is the PS4 version. "Not our fault". Tough luck.[/QUOTE]

I know from personal experience that's not the PC version.
Opps, misspell. That's [B]NOT [/B]the PC version.
Makes me sad about that huge graphics drop.
I guess they did the same with FarCry 3 - why can't we have nice things?
How about you buy it for the gameplay, how much fun it looks and how good of a game it seems it'll be instead of graphics
I'd take average graphics over bad framerate any day

I do buy things for gameplay - I wouldn't play games like factorio for many hours if I didn't.
But to decrease what was previously shown yesteryear is saddening nonetheless. I don't know what triggered it but I like having the [I]option[/I] of insane graphics if I have a machine capable.
I mean, if the game-play was exactly the same but you could play only in wireframe with colors but no textures I'd assume you would not find it nearly as fun. Graphics, especially the style, greatly affect atmosphere and immersion in a game.

There's a point. Jim Sterling tackled this subject a few weeks ago, might want to watch [URL="http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/jimquisition/8876-Watch-Dogs-A-Vertical-Slice-Of-Steaming-Bullshots"]this[/URL].

There's a difference between "video of an unfinished product with only relatively okay graphics" and fucking wireframes jesus christ
