I dearly hope not, because not everything seen here will be improved for the PC version, notably materials. Draw distance, LOD, AO, perhaps textures but not assets themselves.
I don't get it, at all the gameplay footage looks really good, not a graphical milestone sure but nicely detailed textures, good lighting, materials reacting plausibly to light, it looks like a game targetting modern systems.
Those shots are just horrible.

I hope that HUD is a placeholder and the day 1 patch will update it with the final version...

this one looks pretty awful too. That table texture and the stand isn't even round.
It needs better ambient occlusion too.

My memory may be foggy, but I swear Doom 3 had better texture filtering than what we are seeing.

That Zonaforo thread is playing out *exactly* like this one.

People have no problem saying assassin creed syndicate was a step down from unity because it was ubisoft,call of duty got hammered for looking worst than advance warfare(when it was first shown at least) every jrpg in existence not named final fantasy gets called out for their graphics being stagnant. But here you have fallout 4 where i haven't seen anybody say game play would be bad but say one bad thing about the graphics and people go up in arms and its all about gameplay not graphics now

Yep lighting sucks.
EDIT: I hope these are all low settings. Everything looks rubber.

Graphically, technically or gameplay-wise. This game will not be worthy of GOTY. It may be quite good, it may be even very good but GOTY it won't be.
However, I can see it winning GOTY everywhere.

One of these dogs is from a game that runs at 60FPS on consoles. 9/10 people can't tell the difference! Can you?
You know a game's visuals are bad when the quotes's snaps looks bad.
Anyway, it won't stop me to enjoy this game and mod the shit outta it.
I mean, this is from an inside location, and almost everything here looks wrong. I won't quote THAT other shot, as several persons in this thread already have explained what's bad about it.

I actually think that Bethesda's writing is absolute shit. But when has a Bethesda RPG not won GOTY?
Somebody needs to tell Bethesda about thing called shadow.
lol bothered by it? True I'm not bothered by how the game looks but I definitely see why people think it looks bad. I'm just saying at this point the game will need a thread where people can vent about their frustration on the graphics so it doesn't bog down every single F4 thread. I was mainly referring to what happened with The Witcher 3.
If this thread does become that thread then great. But let's try not to bog down all the other threads (mainly the OT) with this.
Bethesda does deserve this (even though I'm not surprised by it).
Joke was he was comparing a PC early concept screenshot that never became reality to an actual console game screenshot in the OP.

Not until someone's played it.
a game of the year isnt defined by whether or not it appeals to those obsessed with visuals

MGSV ain't too hot either.

That video is from almost 3 years old prototype that was even before Cryengine received PBR update. Jeeez. Pop-in is bad though in the alpha...which is why it's alpha.
Do you have a source to back up how that is factually false? I'd like to see RAD saying the game they put out is the game they always wanted to make, down to the shit werewolf fights, terrible recycled QTE bossfight and lackluster story that ends on a cliffhanger that will never pay off.
How am I not making sense? I'm just making an assumption that they've made a better game than the last ones, I think they've improved their games with each iteration, I don't see how it's far fetched to say the same for Fallout 4. We'll see soon enough anyway, come eat crow (or watch me) in the review thread if you feel so inclined.

Hard to discern, I may need to consult the council.

Look at the bright side people.
If gamers don't play Bethesda games for graphics, nor writing, nor polish, it's because the gameplay.
Gameplay is really king!

At least this thread can't turn into a heated downgrade discussion.
Bethesda, unlike a certain other developer whose name I won't mention, didn't provide early promotional material that was completely doctored, and in no way representative of the final product.
Todd Howard is not a liar.

You guys saw the game unveiling at e3, saw the footage that was released before that wasn't looking too hot but was "OK" cause it's Fallout.
And now we are seeing the first real screenshots coming from the retail version, it looks exactly the same as that footage shown before at e3, and now suddenly it's too ugly for words?
Just accept that it's going to look like a larger scaled Xbox 360 game in Full HD with some added effects, no more, no less.
Why? Because it's been 5 years in the making and was probably cross gen at one point and changing the engine at around 3 years of development probably wasn't the smartest choice. So deal with it.

Yeah, I think the real issue here is the game being 30fps on PS4.

It's like you're trying to out-dumb yourself. It's really fun to watch.
AO seems the most noticeable thing to me - ie there isn't any, which is bizarre

The eyepatch gives it away.
Yeah ok just because he doesn't equate graphics to quality makes him a whore. Also love the post of people comparing it to the witcher 3 yet use bullshots huh maybe Bethesda should use bullshots and get some of that graphic high lvl money.
No, the PS4 will be the better choice in that situation.
580 - 1.5gb of VRAM which is a no-go for modern games.

Really ? Surprising. The technical aspects like shadows, LoD, texture quality looks very similar.
Touche.
I never called anyone a whore, so keep that language to yourself.
You might also want to read his follow-up post, friend.

Everyone loves their rose tinted glasses. FO4 looks waaaay better than FO3 but people just can't see it.

Game looks pretty damn rough. I'm in for the gameplay though and hype is still through the roof. Getting this on PC. Hopefully on Ultra it looks quite a bit better

Wrong. That is a dog. A diamond dog.

For those who are worried about draw distance and LODs on PC, you can adjust them in the ini files. I remember messing around with the draw distance of objects, vegetation and memory grids. Then my save file got destroyed and I never touched that damn ini file again.
Edit: Whenever Boris starts working on the Fallout 4 ENB, he should start with advanced/dynamic/whatever shadows.
