Vrain Matari Mikramurka Shock Troop Minmatar Republic 2426	Posted - 2014.12.26 15:59:00 - [1] - Quote Simple question: Would you accept a Borlerlands-style, almost cartoony looking DUST if it gave us better framerate, better hit detection, better controls, less lag? I would. We can pump up graphics when we get more optimization done and/or move to a stronger platform. Gameplay is everything. PSN: RationalSpark
Pseudogenesis Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 1207	Posted - 2014.12.26 16:08:00 - [2] - Quote Borderlands/cel shaded style of graphics aren't inherently worse than more realistic graphics just because they have less polygons. Personally I adore cel shading, and some of my favorite games use it. That being said, I dunno if cel shading would work for Dust. If they could keep the same visual style as we have now and we'd see an upgrade in performance then sure absolutely, but I dunno if cel shading could even be used to emulate the visuals of new eden properly. So in conclusion... -»\_(pâä)_/-» Stabby-stabber extraordinaire I stabbed Rattati once, you know.
KING CHECKMATE Opus Arcana Covert Intervention 6546	Posted - 2014.12.26 16:13:00 - [3] - Quote King Checkmate and Handsome Jack approve of this. Amarrian Born And State Patriot.
2Berries Ghosts of Dawn General Tso's Alliance 471	Posted - 2014.12.26 16:19:00 - [4] - Quote Not in this day & age. Tech is far enough along that expecting good graphics & performance should not be out of the question. This is probably why legion is set for the PC, where it is reasonable to be able to provide both. I would prefer both quality graphics & performance on the PS4. Have you considered a career in costumed aggression?

Tbh i don't understand why we can't have both on the PS3, but at this point i'm desperate and willing to compromise. PSN: RationalSpark
doc lowroar Random Gunz RISE of LEGION 48	Posted - 2014.12.26 16:39:00 - [6] - Quote I vote for performance. Imo ccp should get foundation as solid as possible , and promote dust as a premiere competitive fps platform ,hosting a annual big prize event. Get in on the new e-sports trend.

I would. We can pump up graphics when we get more optimization done and/or move to a stronger platform. Gameplay is everything. borderlands has way better graphics in terms of draw distance and reflective surfaces than DUST does though. Then again I played BL2 on PC maxed out 1080p. If you downgrade DUST's graphics anymore it will be Minecraft 514 DUST VIDEOS

If you downgrade DUST's graphics anymore it will be Minecraft 514 What about using simple solid textures, effectively a cell-shaded look? That must be less demanding than the realism we're going for now. PSN: RationalSpark
KEROSIINI-TERO The Rainbow Effect 1638	Posted - 2014.12.26 18:05:00 - [10] - Quote In short: YES - definately. Low performance is the greatest annoyance in the game by far. Actually, I enjoy those moments the buildings and compounds have low detail texture as on that brief moment the game runs smoother. People would enjoy Dust a lot more if they accepted the fact that EVERYTHING is subject to change

Nirwanda Vaughns 1128	Posted - 2014.12.26 18:12:00 - [11] - Quote All i'll say is no one had any issues with the first DOOM Never argue with an idiot. they bring you down to their level and beat you through experience proud C-II bpo owner
Kallas Hallytyr Skullbreakers 1205	Posted - 2014.12.26 18:34:00 - [12] - Quote Yes, in a heartbeat. Gameplay over graphics any day. Alt of Halla Murr. Sentinel.
Immortal John Ripper 26967	Posted - 2014.12.26 18:44:00 - [13] - Quote They should just make dust an 8 bit game to compensate for the bad performance from bad coding. Tacos.

Joel II X Bacon with a bottle of Quafe 5251	Posted - 2014.12.26 20:13:00 - [15] - Quote Yes, but not to the point where it looks like a Nintendo 64 game.

shaman oga Dead Man's Game 3522	Posted - 2014.12.26 20:51:00 - [17] - Quote I would like Chromosome graphics, game was smooth. After uprising a friend of mine told: "they ****** an entire game for 4 tufts of grass". There is no need of borderlands graphic. Situational awareness also known as passive scan.

I used to play the beta daily, then 1.0 hit and I played one day, and stayed away for 3 or 4 months. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

Cell-shaded gfx would end my dust career. Chrome graphics I have no problem with, mostly because of nostalgia. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Haajakin Kalen.
Spkr4theDead Red Star. EoN. 2623	Posted - 2014.12.26 21:03:00 - [20] - Quote Absolutely It would allow for faster frame rates, and generally quicker load times, both loading in as well as rendering. I came from SOCOM - the graphics left a bit to be desired for the PS2, but the gameplay was incredibly addicting, and I put at least 5000 hours in from SOCOM I through Combined Assault. Gameplay should always come before graphics, for every single game. I may be missing something, but I'm pretty sure that I didn't call for a tank nerf before Uprising 1.7. - Atiim

m621 zma 243	Posted - 2014.12.26 21:27:00 - [21] - Quote Before uprising dropped we were without updates for 6?? months because we were led to believe CCP were working on improving the core gameplay... So no surprise when uprising patch notes were released that core gameplay still sucked and we got LOL 'improved graphics' LOL

THe PS3 only has 256MB pf RAM, thus expecting anything "top tier" out of it is pushing it. Sure your CPU is a 6 core 3.xGhz and the GPU is only a tad older than a 9500Gt, but that RAM... Makes your loading rely so much more on hard drive speed than RAM. General John Ripper -BAM! I'm Emeril Lagasse. This message was approved by the 'Nobody Loved You' Foundation'
