New Quantum Break Impressions & Previews

That wasnt what I meant at all. I am talking in terms of what they are doing visually and what works.

You mentioned "because small areas". What areas? You reffered on U4. What we saw to date, U4 has much bigger areas than U3. And QB doesn't have small areas, right?

Why does every thread derail after 6 or 7 pages in a "compare graphics" thread. :D
Especially when we have devs watching and responding in this thread about the game. We can ask about the game instead people are talking about graphics again.
 
It's just strange that over the years AMD GPU'S have mostly had better TFLOPS performance than their Nvidia counterparts but due to better drivers (Nvidia) etc they rarely perform any better. It's not a very solid argument to say just because X has a higher tflop output it will definitely produce better visuals than Y.

It's weird, I have always assumed that NVidia GPUs had LESS Tflops, but they were far more efficicent than AMD's.

Deep down some people care more about games looking better than other games to justify their purchase, instead of games being fun to play. Every format has it, its just one of those things.

I wasnt referring to any specific section of the game. Just how they will utilize their technology as one user wrote in a previous page.

Yeah that's what I mean. Typically Nvidia has less than AMD. Yet performance isn't way ahead for like for like cards in favour of AMD. It's very close and in a lot of cases the lower tflop rated card produces better performance. Maybe due to efficiency, drivers, Direct X libraries etc I'm not 100% sure. Tflops aren't really an indicator of surefire performance advantage is all I'm saying.

The videos yesterday pretty much sold me. Looks like a ton of fun, I do hope there's an easy mode so I can just run through it and dominate with my powers. I know that's not popular on this site cause everyone is so hardcore here lol.
 
Was disappointed when they switched MC. True Jack looked and felt real with his deliveries. New Jack looks dull and fake.

I'll take this Phil Spencer original look a like over the new guy. I do NOT like the change at all!

But I will buy Quantum Break anyway, it's made by Remedy...

Nah dude, play on whatever difficulty, as long as you're having fun :)

We have an easy mode yes.

I dont know what to think

I mean I like what I see, but if they didnt have the time powers it would be run of the mill. Once the cool factor wears out I think its going to be an experience similar to the order......

Man... still trying to compare this to The Order. LOL

If Mario didn't have platforming, it'd be a run of the mill walking simulator.

Something about bullet projectiles really gets me. Max Payne, SuperHOT, where you get to see the trajectory all the way is fascinating.

This game goes all out on particle FX.

Love that shoulder bash to shotgun combo.

Hello, my name is Yves Guillemot, Vivendi S.A.'s Employee of the Month!
If I may interpose, I think The Order looks better as well.

Specifically:

Asset and shader quality
Best in class PBR
Fantastic Antialiasing

It's the closest thing I have seen to CGI.

That said, Quantum Breaks looks incredible as well.
I think this game is the closest i've seen a game to emulating life visually. There have been legit moments where i've had to do a double take because of the way the characters react to lighting, even with the heavy compression of youtube.
 
This is definitely the best looking action game I've seen for Xbox One, PS4, and Wii U. Uncharted 4 doesn't come anything close. Remedy has done one hell of a job and the PC version should be something amazing as well!

Thanks, was waiting for the hate messages lol. Some games like this I just like to throw it on easy and have some mindless fun without dieing a bunch of times.... And awesome, thanks for confirming easy mode. Pre ordering this and the division this week on the Xbox one! Now to find the time for all my damn games.

Quantum Break looks better than I remember, but I did not follow it much at all before the PC announcement.

Although you can easily see it runs on Xbox One.

Could you timestamp the moments you speak of please.

There's no denying that Quantum Break is a visual treat.

Not related to your answer at all, but I just want to say thanks for bringing the game to PC. I never had any plans on buying the Xbox anytime soon, but I really wanted to play this game and now I can. \o/

My only wish now is to have it on Steam as well since I certainly don't like what I heard about the Windows store version of Tomb Raider..

I wish Phil had never responded to that guy. Now all I see when I google Quantum Break is "Xbox gamers rage about QB being in PC"

The majority of xbox gamers probably have no idea orcould care less.

QB looks little more realistic to me, i am not really a fan of Uncharted cutscenes, but to say that Uncharted 4 can't come close to QB... that's just not true.
