how else can I point out jaggies, and claim the gameplay is generic and a rip-off of tomb raider?No you don't.
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End 60fps teaser trailer

- Start date
You have to complete the game first to know if it's completable with just a bat.
You work for Digital Foundry 
.
No you don't.
The minute you see a gameplay teaser you'll be putting your GTX 780 up on craigslist.
But i thought y'all told me hardware is static and there is no way for lower specd hardware to outperform higher specd hardware
He's buying a PS4 is what I'm saying. He needs one for Bloodborne and UC4.But i thought y'all told me hardware is static and there is no way for lower specd hardware to outperform higher specd hardware
He's buying a PS4 is what I'm saying. He needs one for Bloodborne and UC4.
But there's no way a card weaker than a 660ti can play a game looking like uncharted 4 at 1080p 60fps.
It can. All he has to do is download MSI Afterburner and problem solved

So you're now saying that consoles can "punch above their weight"?
Nope. I'm obviously joking dumbass. UC4 will probably have some great tech work and shyt to make it look outstanding but I'm sure within a few years TR on PC running in 4K at 60fps on a GTX 990 would look better.
Within a few years and a much stronger card isn't the question.
It's been said that the ps4 has a card slightly weaker than a 660.
Do you think a 660 will run tomb raider 2015 looking better than uncharted 4?
Where you heard that??
I don't know how TR 2015 is going to run, I never even seen it. It's way too early to ask this.

I have an nvideo gtx 870 . Wow, my card is so angelic.
game development is my major for the last 4 years so hopefully i can clear this up for everyone, feel free to look up anything i say here
"CGI" is kind of a metonym for computer generated video, extended to game cut scenes. its a term that technically only refers to the movies like pixar movies.
the term technically used to describe the video game cut scenes is "full motion video" or FMV.
pre-rendering means recorded beforehand then imported into the game.
so the comparisons should go: FMV vs game assets and pre-rendering vs real time rendering
cutscenes with FMV - all FMV is pre-rendered. the reason is game assets arent always complete enough for a video. for example game engine lighting may have a specific function. or a character model is only built to do 3 moves. so they couldnt be used in a video. creating a video with video stuff, full and complete animation, animated lighting, etc. you can do whatever you want in video
cutscenes with game assets - can also be pre-rendered, but can be rendered in real time on sufficient hw. if a game engine has a complete dynamic lighting system, character models that can move any way a real human can, complete environments...then cut scenes can totally be built using game assets ("in- game").
naughty dog - first hand, i have no idea what they really do. ive only seen speculation. but for this specific trailer they used game assets, and it was pre-rendered. i say this because 1 - "captured on PS4" has to mean game assets since PS4 is not a CGI or FMV rig. 2 - there is no reason to render a panning camera (for example) in real time. this is something that can be repeated the same way every time. real time would be necessary for something like in UC2 when the building you are standing in is falling. thats something that has to look didfferent every time based on the environment
hope this helps. i havent typed this much since finals a few weeks ago
Why do you need to know any of this? Y'all said software doesn't matter, its all dictated by specs
Lets try this a different way. It's confirmed that the next battlefield is 1080p 60fps on PS4. I have a 660 and couldn't play at that level for BF4. Can you explain this phenomenon?
you might have a virus. you should probably reformat, re-install windows, and soak your rig in rice
the word is they use higher resolution textures on cut scenes. that doesnt mean its not game assets, textures are game assets. if its true its likely that the full cut scenes are pre-rendered. if they could render the high-res in real-time, for a long time, then the whole game would look like the cutscenes.
set pieces like the QTE's might have higher resolutions also, even though they are rendered in real time, because they are short. they are usually over before the fans get loud
i havent met anybody from ND yet but i know its coming and i will definitely ask
