Easych 19 Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) @Mattscott , why are you embarrassed to show screenshots of apb for UE 3.5? Yes, now it is very broken and not ready for release, but the screenshots... I want screenshots. Or your plan to keep the intrigue to the end? I hope this does not look like this cartoon and bright Edited March 8, 2019 by Easych Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The coloring looks quite vivid, and much better than the duller and more monotone shaders we have now. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And, it means if we shut bloom of it wont be as drab any more, honestly think it'll look really nice with bloom shut off in the new engine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, quite what I was going for, but without the specific know. I'd also like to see the elimination of the fog 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_chain 176 Posted March 8, 2019 I like the pretty colors. Hopefully we'll also be able to get rid of the low res symbols on items. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is all I want, but I installed the PS4 version and it looked like it was being run on the lowest settings on the Advanced launcher, I got in a taxi for example and it was all a blur. Not to mention the lag, that was awful. Edited March 8, 2019 by UnviablePlum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Won't be like that over on pc, so don't worry. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not to mention the lag, that was awful. Console versions are badly optimized and suffer from a lot of issues regarding streaming of assets - which is why you see blurry textures that take like half an hour to load and the blocky versions of buildings, areas etc..

MattScott 15241 Posted March 8, 2019 Hi all, I realize there is quite a bit of hype around the engine upgrade. My reluctance to show screenshots is purely because we aren’t quiet done yet with some core level re-writing on multithreaded rendering, lighting, or shaders. In a community like APB, I know I’m not going to make everyone happy. There are too many artistic opinions about which era of the game looked best. So it’s important that we show off images that will actually be representative of the final product, so we can set expectations properly and make a majority of the players happy. Thanks, Matt 26 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, Matt I mean, RP shared quite a bit of screenshots and even a video from asylum... I get where you're coming from and why it's risky to share more stuff.. (although a lot has actually been shared already + the console versions are out for years, so that's that.) but maybe you could just "watermark" the screens with a small text like "not final product / rendering, lighting, shaders may vary in final product" or whatever 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
