Vince Zampella: Titanfall beta was full res textures
- Thread starter MCD
- Start date
- Status
The discussion about cboat is surely a side topic for another thread, its kinda derailing this one?
The same textures @25% resolution is still the same assets, he is not that far wrong, unless he explains fully what he ment, it is ambiguous, chill
Hope Respawm make enough on this game to at least break even, their good devs, by damn they need a new engine. imo there was better looking last gen games, For this to be marketed like it has by MS mostly as Xbox ones flagship game in the launch window, more should be expected.
Gameplay is a huge factor to consider, but it would need to be unbelievable in reinventing COD (thats gone stale imo) to off-balance the look/performance.
Perhaps a CPU bound source engine is the wrong choice in Next gen given its comparably much lower power than the GPGPU/General GPU power.

Which makes it worse. At least with possible leaks, things have the ability to change since nothing is set in stone with them. He knew what he was saying was complete FUD.
What exactly do you think a leak is? They are not commandments from a god, they can be true at the time yet turn out to be false through no fault of the leak source.

Ntkrnl is actually CBOAT. He made a new alias and purposefully sacrificed his old account to take heat off himself. Ntkrnl even looks like how CBOAT would spell something. Must have gt tyrd uv ti ping awl weerd.

Because he must be punished for his slights against Titanfall, which are also by-proxy slights against the Xbone.
Or so it seems going by some posters during this whole ordeal.

Because for whatever reason cboat is on a warpath to get himself banned.
His account's probably been compromised.
Titanfall reinvents CoD like CoD4 reinvented CoD.
The talent transferred over. After playing the Beta 30 hours, I have absolutely no doubts that the game is the real deal.

Even if he cboat doesn't get banned, his reputation is tarnished and can't be trusted. What's even the point carrying on with that account?
Got damn, this is scary. Bish laying the smackdown into RKO into Five Knuckle Shuffle into Stone Cold Stunner on Cbutt.
Do you know how forums work?

That's the danger, what's to stop him from giving a couple of true tips only to gain trust, then start spreading false claims in between. Especially a guy who clearly has a chip on his shoulder, I mean you have to draw the line somewhere. If any poster here was disingenuous and spread FUD, then despite the developer saying otherwise and links and tweets from official sources, you still double down on your claims... at that point you better be right or have something to back your claims up, and that's why Bish said what he said. That was a bold move by Cboat that surprised and confused people at the same time.
Well that's the PR job. redbull... "It gives you wings", does it really?
Leaks on the other hand can either make or break a company rep. Therefore it's crucial to have great sources with facts and not speculations.

You are hilarious, my friend. The topics are asinine and anyone that invests too much time into such trivial things is most likely failing at life. Enjoy it all as you're most likely not contributing in any way other than being a smart ass on neogaf.

Well, of course. My point was that each piece of information likely comes from different sources. He has a more established history than most leakers here and a longer list of things that he's been right about - and they've been bigger things as well, such as the 360 specs.
One event is bad, yes. A ban, sure. But I didn't quite get the call for it to be permanent. Not that you ever specified this, but others have certainly been calling for it. It could have just been a bad source or something of the like.
Did you just go full Jeff Bell? You never go full Jeff Bell.
So you can come on GAF and spread misinformation as long as you're raking in a ton of cash to do it? Well that seems fair and not completely idiotic at all.
what are you bitching about? Take it to PM.

I think he's specifically referring to Penello, though as far as I know Penello is expected to maintain the same standard as any other poster here: he is supposed to post only those things that he knows to be true. There are, of course, questions as to whether or not he did so, but most people who are really out for blood on him were more upset over things he didn't say - which is somewhat ridiculous, as it's expected that he would not reveal, admit to, or comment on things that could cost him his job.
If he was provably, intentionally spreading misinformation, though, it's no different.
Hot Tip: posting directly defamatory/derogatory comments on the same page as bishop probably is an even worse idea than spreading misinformation.
So let me get this straight.
A billion dollar company that lie to the consumers = fine (it's their job)
An insider posting false leaks that hurts the reputation of the billion dollar company = not okay
Am I understanding you correctly?

Please explain how my comment is more derogatory than his?

As a general rule, statements like "failing at life" (in relation to other posters) are frowned upon. You can call their argument stupid, you can call [insert thing person likes] terrible, but you should try to avoid directly casting aspersions on the people who are making those arguments or enjoying those things.
Good Example: "Knack is terrible and I don't understand how anyone could like it."
Bad Example: "Knack is terrible and everyone who likes it is clearly a blithering idiot."
Please note these statements are for example purposes only. I have not played Knack and have no opinion on it, or the people who play it. Offer void in AL, TN, SC, and VA.

Completely different situation.
More often than not it is incomplete. If you want to ignore that just because they also use it as promotion, I don't know what to tell you.
I don't expect anything. I had plenty of fun with the game as it was during beta so if there's no improvement I'll be fine with that. The fact that you think that build was representative of where they were at a month before release tells me a lot though.

Always thought the textures in the game looked quite good. What the game lacks in fancy graphics tech, I think it more than makes up for with all the other stuff it has going on as an online shooter. Plenty of nice looking effects (some more subtle than others, but still effective), it's busy enough to never be a visual bore, and the art is good. It comes together really well, much better than I think it gets credit for.

Lesson learned: Don't drink Black Label and post to neogaf as you may hurt people's feelings. I love neogaf and don't mean to offend anyone. In all seriousness, I cannot wait for Titanfall and don't care what it looks like as my super PC can handle all!

Fine with the cboat ban. He went back to the subject on his own and bet the farm. Bish just had to do what he had to do.
That being said I see no reason Pernello shouldn't have been banned long ago on the same pretense.

Why would someone come back to contribute after being run out of town, though? You'd have to be pretty pathetic to sit there and wait to be unbanned just to come back and risk getting caught to continue sharing.

Are people that desperate wanting this game to fail because it's on the Xbone? If you hate the Xbone buy a PC and play it on that it will run and look better anyways. Don't be petty.

I'm not really vested in the game one way or the other. I played the PC beta and got bored after a while, but that happens with more and more games the older I get, though. I will say those screens look good because of the current viewpoint, but when you move in on the meshes/textures everything starts to look really flat and the meshes are really low polygon. I mean, it's optimized, but it starts to look boxy when you remove so many polys.
Someone else will fill the void.
