but first...

can you tell me, from a Lore standpoint, why is the game rendered in 780p?

720*. Its even worse than you thought.
I'm not a Dev or anytyhng though, but I can tell you that developing for this game isn't easy. The amount of optimization and knowledge of hardware as well as software needed in order to get this game to the standard of others like battlefield (basically what it is on the ground), or call of duty (gotta admit that 60fps is pretty sweet, even with muddy textures), or farcry (those huge maps to a pretty high quality)... its pretty immense.

I'm not trying to defend CCP for making a game with atrocious visuals, but I am saying for a company who has had no connection to the playstation3 until 3 or 4 years ago, compared to planetside2 who's company made the PS3, or other mainstream devs who have made games for the PS3 for nearly 8 or 9 years, CCP is doing pretty well...

Although the visuals are still **** and they should step up their game.

I prefer FF and feel like when its off u get into bad habits with gunfire and grenades. But maybe you have a lore explanation that I dont know about. Just a question that was bothering me is all.

Like ninjas vs hunters where ninjas only have nova knives, get camo until 3 meters and don't show up on scans at all and get insta kills, while hunters get what they like. Or arena shooter style game modes where the floors are always slippy, everyone gets double normal speed and fire rate is increased by 1.5. Or even a 6v6 mode where people spawn in vehicles and can't jump out. Something tells me that FW is suppose to be the actual gameplay but public contracts are simply side grinding to fuel the main game. If that makes sense.

This was what the gladiator arena was to accommodate--game modes like capture the flag etc that didn't make sense in the context of space warfare. They were to be arenas built on PC territories that allowed corps to host their own custom battles...kinda like that mode in Killzone: SF where you can choose your parameters. Streaming and betting is part and parcel of this too. I imagine we'll see it.......................some day. Electronic Warfare GOD in the making
