Charlotte O'Dell 0uter.Heaven EoN. 942	Posted - 2013.08.16 17:43:00 - [1] - Quote I don't understand why we have weapons with longer ranges than the draw distance and shortening ranges is out of the question. I don't care how you do it, but remove active SP from redlining and increase draw distance to 1000m. Thanks.
ZDub 303 TeamPlayers EoN. 1667	Posted - 2013.08.16 17:47:00 - [2] - Quote I don't think the ps3 has enough memory to handle it sadly... This is why ps4 :/
N1ck Comeau Ahrendee Mercenaries EoN. 1003	Posted - 2013.08.16 17:49:00 - [3] - Quote So you don't want people to be in the redline, but we need to be able to see a 1000 meters? Logic.

You must feel very smart for saying that. You are, perhaps, someone who fights in CQC, often, and doesn't want a long draw distance because it means someone could kill you from far away. Give me one reason why there should not be a longer draw distance (ps3 hardware, aside).
Argon Gas Krusual Covert Operators Minmatar Republic 87	Posted - 2013.08.16 17:56:00 - [5] - Quote It's just a bull excuse. BF3 has MUCH better graphics, destrucion, BULLET PHYSICS. And player models NEVER disappear on me! EVER! With how crappy Dust looks, the draw distance should be infinite.

Viktor Zokas 187. 227	Posted - 2013.08.16 18:08:00 - [7] - Quote Or just remove the reline.
Thumb Green Novashift 280	Posted - 2013.08.16 18:11:00 - [8] - Quote For once, I completely agree with O'Dell.

And player models NEVER disappear on me! EVER! With how crappy Dust looks, the draw distance should be infinite. Unreal Engine is crap on the PS3, expect major improvements from a move to PS4 (much more than justified by the increased hardware specs). Sadly, right now the game can't even maintain 30 FPS as it is, so increasing drawing distance seems to be out of the question. Creating an engine of Frostbite calibre (BattleField's in-house engine) is no mean feat. Clearly CCP tried but then decided that switching to UE would be the more efficient solution. We'll just have to live with that for now, until the PS4 comes along.
Thumb Green Novashift 280	Posted - 2013.08.16 18:22:00 - [10] - Quote I'd blame the development team long before I blamed the engine. We've got a group of people developing a game of a genre they have no experience with, for a platform they have no experience with, and with an engine they have no experience with. The bottom line is CCP's team just doesn't really know what they are doing and are learning as they go.

crazy space 1 Unkn0wn Killers 1557	Posted - 2013.08.16 18:23:00 - [11] - Quote you know, there was a time beta when reline snipers weren't a problem before CCP made it a problem

Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 3005	Posted - 2013.08.16 19:12:00 - [15] - Quote We need a draw distance system similar to that of skyrim- it stays low by default, but increases if you look through a scope.
Dovallis Martan JenusKoll Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 26	Posted - 2013.08.16 19:21:00 - [16] - Quote 600 M sounds like a decent draw distance for characters and vehicles... If only they could fix this new clipping issue with the characters and walls... which didn't happen when the draw distance was much higher BTW...

Or perhaps have draw distance scale based on your current dropsuit, as different layouts give you different effective ranges
Jar Adoor GamersForChrist Orion Empire 0	Posted - 2013.08.16 19:31:00 - [18] - Quote There must be potential to verify as far as you can shoot. Bring back long range 2D tags if the processor can't handle animating. I suspect this may be in place to distract from a one way sniper fire terrain bug before it's fixed.

Give me one reason why there should not be a longer draw distance (ps3 hardware, aside). Sniper rifle/forge gun/swarms/etc.. all have perfect or too far of a range as it is. Until there is some incentive to not be in the redline there shouldn't be a change to render distance. Hell, remove all WP/SP/ISK gain while you're in 50 meters of your redline. Hiding in the redline may be a viable tactic but it's among other things that is completely ruining the game.

If you're using a weapon that doesn't have a high effective range, you can see units in the distance, but you can't see with the clarity you would having a weapon with a scope, which makes it practical, not training for better graphics

Hiding in the redline may be a viable tactic but it's among other things that is completely ruining the game. I don't think the redline is "Ruining the Game"..... There is a redline in pretty much every FPS that doesn't use the invisible border gimmick. Redline is akin to saying "If you cross this line you risk landmines/mortar bombardment". Battlefield does redline.....& there are praises sung-a-plenty. From what I gather the MCC &/or Concord draws these lines. Draw distance increase is a necessity to combat, or at least avoid, the redline sniper. It is only more difficult to combat b/c of terrain rendering issues ala "Head Glitching". If you can see it, you may avoid it or fight it. At least you will see the tracer/pathing of the redliner with proper rendering.....as opposed to the LOLtastic invisible Swarms, Forges, & Sniper Rifle fire we have now, where the only thing you see is an explosion, hit splash, indicator flare, or the BSOD (Black Screen Of Death).........

Rendering is completely borked at the moment.....try again
