you guys are awful quick to go into attack over every little thing.

Not watching as I'm avoiding spoilers of any kind right now, but if DF is calling this game a technical masterpiece, consider me sold three times over.

They said the same about Arkham Knight and I ended up despising that game.

 

[nelsonroyale]

Well I have no ps4, is there anywhere lossless footage to download (pro version)? I would like to see this game in its full glory.

You can output 5000 fps, you can't present them. Source: actually knowing what I'm talking about.

You can't output 5000fps. HDMI doesn't have the bandwidth, you can't write it at that speed successfully. Since you're talking about hitting 30fps render...

 

[Primethius]

of all people to say this

Lol

Just talking in terms of performance here. The other full game reviews are what sold me on the game first and foremost. But DF's seal of approval is what shoots that into the stratosphere for me though. I am a particular bitch about performance.

 

[Aceofspades]

Sony's first parties are absolute wizards.

 

[Marmelade]

You can run games @5000fps
Just run an extremely simple game without vsync
Outputting @5000fps via HDMI is another story and obviously impossible

 

[Skux]

Outstanding. I wouldn't expect anything less from Guerrilla.

lol but the salt in some posts.

It's ok for a game to be amazing even if it's not available on the plastic box with your favorite corporate logo on it guys.

Also the footage of Horizon does look better than W3 pc ultra in a lot of cases here. Subjective of course, but dam. Great looking game. Nice work GG.

Again, you can output as many fps as you want. Outputting anything from a pipeline doesn't mean that you have to show this via the HDMI or anything else. Most modern games are outputing stuff to off-screen buffers all the time.

 

[CerebralTiger]

Nah, W3 on PC maxed (ini changes included) is just beyond.

I've tinkered with the ini settings and mods as well, but I honestly don't see a huge improvement over the vanilla version.

Salt? You missed by a country mile, even the platform you managed to get it wrong.

 

[jaaz]

Have an older 4K non-HDR TV and a 2K IPS Monitor. Torn on what screen I should play this game on...

 

[Rizific]

motionblurgarbage.jpg

motionblur stays up there with CA as one of the most offensive effects a dev can put in their game. provide options to turn that shit off, please.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

I wish this game had a demo.

 

[onemanasylum]

They said the same about Arkham Knight and I ended up despising that game.

What is the relevance of them calling it a masterpiece and you not liking the game to anything in this thread?

PC gamers will never admit a game on console rivals the best PC has, Horizon and UC4 definitely do. What some studios can do on closed hardware is amazing. Let them be salty.

 

[Dictator93]

Having cutscene character shadows, lod 0, and facial animation while in gameplay makes a big difference IMO over vanilla.

 

[Inuhanyou]

even the original ps4 version beats every open world game out there outside of PC versions in terms of visuals and technical sheen. its amazing how horizon has been able to do this and get really close to uc4's level of technical polish in an actual open world enviorment

So because someone thinks different they are a PC/Xbox/Nintendo gamer. The logic some of you fanboys use.

 

[RAWRferal]

Holy shit this looks good.

I have 2 weeks off coming up too. Y0, Nioh, this. Wallet am cry.

 

[Gurish]

Sooo if RDR2 somehow do make it out this year, do you think it will beat those visuals or we can give Horizon the best visuals award for 2017 already?

 

[KKRT00]

With Battlefront 2 and Squadron 42 coming out this year? Dont think so.

 

[Falchion]

I was blown away by Uncharted 4's looks a year ago and I'm ready to get blown away by Horizon next week.

 

[Inuhanyou]

I think we have a very stable lineup of games that can vie for the title planned for this year

[Psychological Intellect]

Holy sh*t. Is there motion blur on regular ps4 too?

Im playing on regular ps4. There's definitely motion blur.

 

[TrojanBlade]

The bar has been raised for this gen. Never doubted GGs tech wizardry..,they are in the top 5 in the industry.

But they even delivered a great game that is appealing to most people is the icing on the cake.

 

[facetheslayer92]

The last Rockstar game that took me by surprise visually was GTA 4.

 

[RoboPlato]

Holy sh*t. Is there motion blur on regular ps4 too?

Only differences between Pro and base are resolution, texture quality, and AF.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

I'll get some soon but here's a couple random caps of the motion blur

This might be the best screenshot I've ever seen

 

[onemanasylum]

Never said that, you are good at making up things though.

 

[Zombie James]

This looks phenomenal. Holy shit.

 

[Koobion]

Absolutely incredible. It's no wonder why Kojima chose to use the Decima engine.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Damn this game looks fucking amazing. Makes me wish I had a 4K TV and a Pro.

Thanks !

 

[RedlineRonin]

Considering we're getting locked 30 fps on vanilla PS4, i wonder what that means for the type of game DS will be. Fox engine for MGSV was 60fps on consoles wasn't it? (I played on PC so idk).

 

[Aikidoka]

Wow, really like the way the robits maul villages/towns and that they seemingly have real defenses. One of the things I disliked about the Witcher 3 was how there are necrophages and drowners mere meters away from children playing and dancing.
I hope traces of damage are persistent and vary depending on player performance.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Nah, W3 on PC maxed (ini changes included) is just beyond.

I need to do this. I just started modding Fallout 4.

Man, what a time to be alive. So much gaming greatness to wallow in these days.

 

[Zok310]

Hard to believe that Guerrilla Games went from Shellshock nam 67 to this masterpiece in a lil over 10 years.

 

[Aselith]

That's a long time

 

[Baroquemantic]

Been watching YouTube and Gamersyde videos and I keep asking myself how the hell did an open world game look like this on a console. This game is just crazy good looking. And it performs well to boot.

 

[Fireflu]

Motion blur makes everything in every game look better, fact.

 

[black070]

I'm so ready for this.

 

[Zombie James]

Motion blur makes everything in every game look better, fact.

Good motion blur. No developer should do whatever Just Cause 3 does.

 

[onemanasylum]

Good motion blur. No developer should do whatever Just Cause 3 does.

Good advice for any developer.

 

[The Dear Leader]

The PS4 Pro implementation needs to be rewarded, this went from playing my brothers copy to buying day 1.

 

[n0razi]

My body (err... 4K HDR OLED) is ready

 

[Bad_Boy]

I think Naughty Dog has been unseated.

Agreed. And i think GG will be unseated by SSM.

 

[Space_nut]

With Battlefront 2 and Squadron 42 coming out this year? Dont think so.

This year there's going to be a lot of contenders for sure

 

[michaelius]

My 120fps ULMB gaming experience begs to differ but I'd agree that it's beneficial at 60 and mandatory at 30 fps
