It seems like everyone says this game looks horrible, "like a PS2 game," blah blah bleh bloo bloo.
My opinion? It looks pretty bad compared to a high-end PC game, primarily because of the resolution and lack of AA, but for a console game? I dunno, looks pretty passable to me. Certainly not as good as some AAA single-player titles, but this is a freakin' MMO -- they've never really had spectacular graphics.I don't know, maybe I'm blind, but I just don't see it -- I didn't even see it in the last build(for that matter, I don't see a huge improvement in this build, but that's another matter).
So spill it, say exactly what it is about the graphics that bugs you. Help me understand, please. |

I rate content and game play over graphics any day of the week, saying that the graphics could be better, but in their current state they are not a draw back |

I'm with you OP, the graphics are passable.
Also remember that Dusts style of graphics will also help people with poorer eyesight than normal. |

Its fine
These days companys think that graphics make good games when graphics dont really mean anything if the gameplay is really bad |

During the last build when we did the DUST survey I placed graphics as the lowest aspect of the game; not because I think they are crap, but compaired to their conpetition they still have a ways to go. With this build I saw a great increase to character models, elements animation like lighting and dust, and much better draw distance over the last build. Just look at the characters and lighting when in the war room waiting for the match to start; save for the odd planet textures the graphics are really nice. I do not think it is an ugly game at all, but they do have room for improvment and I hope CCP takes advantage of this beta time to do so. |

Graphics are ok to me. No issues. A more fluid frame rate would be nice though. |

Oh man, you really got me, +1.
I agree that draw distance used to be an issue and framerate still is to an extent(though I think it has a lot to do with lag in most cases), but I tend to look at these under the broad definition of "technical issues," rather than specifically relating to graphics. I'm gonna be really pissed if that's where all the negativity is coming from. |

Graphically its very ugly. The design work is great (with the exception of the Minmatar stuff, which looks nothing like I thought it would and is out of character with their EVE equivalents), but its let down by the engine.
I doubt very much whether its going to get any better. I've heard rallying cries of 'Oh this is just the beta engine!' or 'They're running this with minimal texture support until release' in so many other games only for that exact same engine to be the one on release it just falls on deaf ears now.
It doesn't concern me too much though. I'll take balance and stability over graphics any day of the week.
We'll see how that pans out eh? |

They're not the best, but they're okay. Given that this game is a 'free' game, I've had low expectations for the graphics to begin with.
The gameplay, content and most importantly 'fun' far outweigh the so-so graphics. |

Hum.. I generally run shooters on PC on the lowest graphics possible (aside from resolution) to avoid any distractions.
However, when it comes to consoles I'd say this game needs some sand paper and just needs to be smoothed out a bit. I also didn't like that when you start the game the terrain seems to change from a vague map to a more detailed map vs just loading the detailed map.
I also didn't like the way that shuttles seem to disappear when they get distance vs them "fading" into the tuscan sky.
Oh! and the graphics for thrusters seems like a joke it made me laugh when I saw them. Kind of reminded me of the original Unreal game when it was solo game and what not. |

Graphics are pretty good, especially with this update. Gameplay is more important than a shallow pretty game.

By shuttles do you mean the RDVs? Those carriers that bring in tanks and jeeps? They have cloaking, so basically they uncloak and the re-cloak when they enter and leave the field of battle.
Graphics are fine. There's a lot of popping, juddering, stuttering, and so on in the merc quarters and war barge lobby. But that could be more down to character animation, physics, etc. There are weird lighting instances with the camera where moving the camera changes the lighting, and the way light falls on objects in the war barge.
Big swaths of fill texture in some of the maps over smooth terrain that look very last generation.
But none of that is really much of an issue. Looking at how the graphics are progressing build to build seems they are good to go. Just a little sand paper and a little touch up here and there.
As has been said, good solid gameplay over graphics in a massively multiplayer game. |

Firstly, Ive probably been in more betas then you can imagine xbox, pc, ps3, and even the wii. Furthermore, I can tell from experience when a game has the criteria to succeed, and sadly DUST fails miserably.

DUST has nothing appealing to offer right now, other then the future aspect of playing/communicating with eve players. I have yet talked to one, or see a spaceship over my head. DUST tries to copy BF3 vehicle style, but fails with balance and counters. Dust tries to copy low damage/ high health, but cannot figure out hit detection and bullet speed. Lastly, DUST tries to copy a MMO system, but fails to realize that FPS are designed for balance and not grind to win.
CCP ha great dreams for this game, but I do not think there will be player base around to support it lol.

Due to the historical massive cross platform integration that dust 514 is shooting for on a 6 year old console, I think the graphics look pretty decent! All things considering. |

Dc was pay to play, and has some major names behind it, and still does have a sub model.
Star Wars had what crazy ass budget...and was pay to play.
Planetside 2 not sure about......but those first two are not good games to compare against.

If this had been your first post....minus the bragging on how many betas you been in[big whoop by the way, considering its pretty damn easy to get into a beta, l myself have beta tested for over 10 years, since the days of Ultima Online...big fing deal], and calling people fanboys...you may have been taken serious.
Oh and that you have like what...217 alt forum accounts. |
