Post your New, and Great Screenshots!

And thus why Most Wanted is a shoe in for not-sucking. Then again, EA is a shoe in for sucking, so who can say.

[Mechanerd]

You know that the 360 version of MW apparently looks better than the PC version on max? WTF is with that.
Doesn't release in Aus till the 25th, damn it I hate waiting. The Black Edition comes with extra cars and tracks though I'm sure they'll end up on the net sooner or later.

[Fortune Hunter]

there is no way the 360 looks better than the PC, they are all going to look the same...

after all the game comes out on Xbox, PS2 and the 360 and we all know EA is the worst when it comes to porting games

The X360 version will look better than all of the other versions. I'm pretty damn sure that EA is giving PC users a PS2 or Xbox port instead of an X360 port (like they did with Tiger Woods 2006, Madden 2006, NHL 2006, and NBA Live 2006). The X360 version will have better textures, and maybe some better effects.

Why bother, this is EA...

[Mechanerd]

I just watched the IGN vids of Most Wanted on PC and it does actually look worse on PC, but then I have no idea what settings they had it on. Who fucking knows, I'll buy it on the 25th and run it on max then compare it to screens of the 360 version.

[WhoGivesARatsAss]

I am actually waiting for Most Wanted. If there is any game that did arcade racing right, it has been need for speed (yes, including the underground series also, if you minus the lame comparisons with the single brand NFS title).

You know what a nub is.


nub
( P )
n.

1. A protuberance or knob.
2. A small lump.
3. The essence; the core: the nub of a story

[WhoGivesARatsAss]

Fuckin' nubs. Now stop crapping and post some pics dammit.

I don't think EA have used HDR lighting, I believe its a form of modified blooming that makes it seem like HDR. Nontheless the game still looks sweet, and these are from the PC version by the way. Lets see, other graphical facts of MW; each car is laser scanned and thus is 100% acurate to its real world counterpart and the shadows are complex and travel along the surface of cars realistically, bleh who cares really.

[Striker]

First time playing CS:S in a while. Went from an absolutely horrible game (1:12 kill ratio) to a pretty good game (well, good for me at least.)

First we have some headshots, hooray.

I suppose that's the Xbox port version? Looks crappy indeed.

Splinter Cell 4, Xbox version(no not 360):

For those not up to date on all things SC, 4 is about Mr Fisher being incarcerated, apparently they want more of a steriotypical 'bad ass' thing going for Sam now.
What is nice food for thought; this is the Xbox version and it looks pretty damn good, now think higher res textues, vastly better lighting and nice soft shadows, the 360/PC version will look very nice indeed i'm sure.
Before anyone points out the obvious, yes I know this is the PC topic so you may be thinking 'what do console screens have to do with PC gaming?', well nothing actually but these are the only screens of the game released thus far that I'm aware of so meh.

[WhoGivesARatsAss]

No PC Version shots of NFS MW from your PCs? Fuck.

[RAY16]

No sir, I didn't like it. Performance is pants, and my car starts to tilt sideways before I actually start turning, and it feels like my button presses are delayed. They totally screwed up the physics, NFSU2 was much better in this department. And, like I said, they ported the Xbox 360 version to Xbox and then ported the Xbox version to PC instead of giving us a direct-from Xbox 360 port. Hooray for EA.

[RogerWilco]

Hopefully Xbox development will soon be phased out so we'll be "lucky" enough to get XBOX 360 ports. Fucking ports...

[Mechanerd]

Well I just downloaded and played the MW demo, in my opinion it fucking rules but then no one cares for my opinion, here are some screens:
Everything maxed except AA and AF running at 1024 x 768 with nice FPS:
http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/691/nfsmw014wf.th.jpg (http://img377.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nfsmw014wf.jpg)http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/8618/nfsmw026wh.th.jpg (http://img377.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nfsmw026wh.jpg)

I think it looks sweet, the shadows, bluring and fake HDR are cool but other than that it pretty much looks like U2 only in a different colour palatte, which is't so bad since all those neon signs and glowing enviroments kinda hurt my eyes.

[Fortune Hunter]

I say its good to okay, the graphics need some more customizability for a better balance, the physics are sloppy and somewhat annoying, the gameplay dynamics are good. I like the races the cars and the cops.

6-7/10 for a demo, will consider looking into the full game

[FATMAN]

I see they have implemented damage for the cars, its actually a total rip off of midnight club (the damage meter go around the map). I'm too lazy to take screen shots, but I can run the game on 1280x1024 with everything on max and I mean EVERYTHING!!! :D

[Mechanerd]

1280x1024 with everything on max and I mean EVERYTHING!!!
Well so can I but do you get 60fps? If not it aint worth it.

I wouldn't really call it damage, your car simply gets skratched and the windows crack, but then full damage in NFS would detract from the experience.
I too am annoyed with the physics, I knew the demo was running very smoothly but it felt like I was having slow downs or something, I hope they fix that in the full version, if not I'll just have to put up with it. My favorite level in the demo was the cop evasion one with the dodge viper, man that car kicks ass.

[Fortune Hunter]

the dodge viper, man that car kicks ass.

[FATMAN]

I noticed they had detailed interiors in the cars, hmmm doubt they'll bring back the dasboard view :(

With all settings to the max, it actually looks pretty sweet.

[NiteX]

I just played it and have to say its the best fucking NFS game I've played in a long while. I enjoyed it much more than Underground. It has a great feeling when you are running from the cops. Some great shit.

dont even think about getting the Xbox version, since I'm certain your gonna buy the Xbox360. just buy it along with it or just buy the PC version and buy some other game for the 360 instead.

[Phobo]

I gotta get that shit!

[Mechanerd]

Next Friday, 4:00pm(AUS), I'll have NFSMW black edition.
I'm gonna post a full review(if I can be fucked) as soon as I get the bastard.
Unless of course their's a release delay, which leads to me setting fire to EB.

This is the last PC game I plan on buying this year, possibly the last I get until I upgrade again so it better be some good shit.

Blood Omen

Defiance.

For the first Blood Omen and the first Soul Reaver, I suggest buying (or downloading) the PSOne versions and running them with an emulator, as the PC versions have issues with XP and modern hardware.

I really like the new underground tunnels but in all honesty I expected more from a 300mb free upgrade, some new official car models would have been nice but I suppose the mod community ones are good enough.
I haven't fully checked out all the new track pieces in the editor but judging by the intro cinematic their's some crazy new stuff you can do.

[Fortune Hunter]

the new track peices are amazing, Sunrise is now so much better

the airport stuff for island is great, Bay finally has some water based track and a loop
and coast has this cliffside road thing which is just really nice

I think extreme is amazing 10/10

Well Actually u cant select seperate front bumper parts or sideskirts. Its only body kits and yeah I changed the color from black to brown to avoid the cops. Also I just won a Supra :D

Well its pretty ok, its pretty repetative as usual. Go do a certain number of missions to go against the next dude. But its ok I guess

Yup.

They even removed the head and tail light customization :(

I think it was easier for them to make body kits, since they got couple of exotics and such (They have the DB9 and both the lambo's).

Finally, something worth taking my old steering wheel for. Wake up Bitcomet, you've got some fetching to do.

What's the difference between the Black edition and the regular?

[Mechanerd]

What's the difference between the Black edition and the regular?
2 extra cars; ’67 Camaro SS and the BMW M3 GTR
Uniquely modified Mercedes SL65, Porsche GT2, Corvette C6R, and more.(extra mod stuff)
3 exclusive races and a special Black Ed. Challenge.
Bonus DVD; exclusive videos, concept art, etc.

I'm getting the black edition because I much prefer single disc dvd games to multi cd games. I also want this game to entertain me for a long time, so the more content the better.

[Fortune Hunter]

As far as I know the PC version only comes in black edition, but the UK versions seems iffy...

Also the US version is CD with a bonus DVD... go figure

[Fortune Hunter]

I dunno, do u need to use the DVD to unlock it or something? Cause I *cough*didnt buy it*cough*.

Nope should be built in, check quick race for the camaro and bonus M3, and take screens if you can :D

Looks like Mr. Reiper is getting along in years. Doesn't make him any less cool. I still haven't played Contracts but meh. 2 was the best by far. Though the original isn't bad...

[Digital Limit]

What are your imperssions of NFSMW in terms of glitches and other annoyances? I've heard about graphical 'pop-in' and other annoying things, so I've been a bit worried and afraid to purchase it.

[No Soul]

Contracts mixed in some remade levels with new levels and it ended up being a pretty good game. I still miss being able to buy your own guns.

[Mechanerd]

Oh fuck stop posting the screenshots already, I still have to wait another 4 days.
I really hope my self hype towards MW doesn't lead me to disapointment. Anyone got a verdict on it yet?

[Yian]

WGARA got a NS:MW thread going. Why don't we start posting these screenshots there instead? Seeing we already have enough of them here. :) This is also an effor to help keeping NS:MW related content on the forum to that thread, so people can talk all about it in the right place. What do you guys think?

[RogerWilco]

None of the existing shots were as cool as mine... :). Besides, this IS the screenshot thread.

[Dark_Swordmaster]

I realise I'm not supposed to look at them, but God damn those buildings are ugly in that "flying" shot.

Sorry. Anyway: Does the game/demo get a replay mode? I wanna watch my suck look bad-ass...

nope, no replay mode :(

[Mechanerd]

You know I was able to run the demo at max settings(thats right MAX) and the frame rate remained pretty good, the only thing that bugged me was the feeling behind the car physics, like their is a time delay in your movement or something.

I don't get why you're so happy about max settings in MW. Do you have a old graphics card or something?

What game is this? Looks pretty sweet! It's not STALKER is it?

[Chimera[NL]]

Sweet. Stalker is on the net. Me wanty me wanty.

[Dark_Swordmaster]

That's awesome! All I can find is an old build from way early in the year and a recent MP build. Which is it!?

Oh MAN that's AWESOME!

Sorry but:

OMFGDBBQ! RAFFLE MY WAFFLE WITH MAPLOL SYRUP ON TOP!

[Mechanerd]

I was oblivious to Stalker until I read an article about it in a mag, damn the game sounds like some fun messed up shit.
Where can I get the new MP build DS?

[Yian]

Wow, you are late! :p

I really liked the original name. Oblivion Lost sounded cool. Shadow of Chernobyl just sound cliche.

About the screenshot above. It looks a bit washed out... seems not as detailed as the earlier sreenshots released. Is it just me? :confused:

[Dark_Swordmaster]

Where can I get the new MP build DS?


Yer local torrent site!


Anyway: Which build is it?

Bang, they want it

I'll have you know Epsilon, one of us on this forum is bound to be loaded. And another is bound to suck a mean dick!

mp beta build 2215, you cock smoker.

[Dark_Swordmaster]

Anything overly noteworthy in tha build?

[epsilon]

Anything overly noteworthy in tha build?


4 maps, one of which (factory) is the only one with unplayable frame rates, on my shitty system anyway. All weapons are there, some graphics tweaks could be done through the file user.ltx or something like that. f2 to go into 3rd person, f3 or f4 while will let you move the camera around your character. 4 skins to choose from.

[Mechanerd]

416.12 mb... downloading through bitcomet now. Wooh 116 seeders, I'm gonna play this shit real soon. I'll post some screens when I get it going.

[NiteX]

So how great are the graphics? Is it safe to say STALKER beats every other FPS out there? It sure looks better than FEAR, Doom 3, and slightly better than HL2.

[King Of Nothing]

Tech demo is DX8 and the final will have DX9 shaders. Also settings are quite low and I don't want to mess with them... As a conclusion, it is good graphic freaks, f*cktastic for Fallout freaks (and yes, even now if you dare tweaking cyrptic config files it beats HL2 with an ugly stick, but not Fear :P) I'd even compare it with Fear rather then HL2. But the thing is it game is not a Graph orgy and it has large out doors so expect something over HL2 but not Fear... We just cannot know if it'll beat Fear by graphics, but as a game, ffs it is Fallout in FPS, unless they start working to ruin the game it is destined to beat every single retarted FPS in the market. Ehrm... of course the retarded excludes Fear. It is wicked.

Note; The meatball is result of an anomly. Anomalies are a nice addition to deathmatch games, some of them are stationary some wonder around the map. Some are instakill, some can be dodged... especially the "tornado"(meatball) anomality is wicked, it sucks you into its tiny eye of strom and twists till you blow up Mortal Kombat style.

HAHA I WIN!
I got my copy of NFS Most Wanted yesterday (in the UK) and much to my dismay it wasnt the black edition (I want the camaro and bonus stuff)

but lo and behold there is a small patch out that unlocks all the stuff (it can be used online so the cars have to be installed)

Overall Impressed witht the game, but the plot is SO TYPICAL. Now I give you racing games usually have bad plots, but the "you lost your amazing car to this dude and now you have to beat him to get it back"

When is Microsoft buying the rights and porting it to 360? Hopefully soon :rolleyes:

Notes: It keeps your current BF2 Rank so all unlocks carry over and the unlocks arent new or anything, only the normal kit weapons are new special forces type weapons.

New Maps, New Vehicles like the quad and jet ski, new armys like the UK SAS and Russian Spetznaz

If you have a real working copy of BF2 (that can be patched) you can buy the expansion and play Only the Expansion off the CD

I spent 20 Great British Pounds, which for a game here is pretty low

[amirin]

i see EA's tactic now... i see that one by one official server is starting to turn into SF only server...wtf, looks like i have no choice but to buy SF.


and at those STALKER post, i dont care if the graphic is below FEAR, as long the gameplay is fine..

[Dark_Swordmaster]

A 248MB patch for BF2. It doesn't fix anything for it, it's an entirely SF patch. But BF2 users have to have it. And then, to install it, you have to have THREE GIGABYTES of DISK SPACE free. That's bullshit. BF2 just gets more and more sloppy.

It's sad that Dice let's EA bully them into a rushed PoS...

[Fortune Hunter]

No it does patch BF2...

you will now noticed the BF2 startup loading graphic has the new EA Logo under the title

"Visual treatment" is off because that shit is ugly. Seriously, everything looks like a shitty artsy sepia-filter movie. I can't see shit, which is bad because it's a driving game (requires skill) and not noob-life 2 or something, which is basically an interactive movie (without a proper plot of course).

How do I customize da graphics? I had the demo for about 30 minutes before I accidentally uninstalled it, thinking it to be Underground...

I haven't tried the demo, but in the full game it's pretty simple... just open the video option's advanced menu and turn off Visual Treatment.

And I don't know remember what it stands for.

If you still can't find it then it doesn't exist in the demo. Or you really suck at life.

The only way to turn off motion blur is to edit a registry entry. Should be in HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > EA GAMES > Need For Speed Most Wanted > gmotionblur_enable (or something similar to that). Just set it to 0.

Look for StarFucker, yes, that is what it's called. No, it's not illegal if you own the game. I'm assuming you do. If you don't, don't use StarFucker. You'll go to hell and burn with satan because piracy is free and free stuff is a sin!

[LynX]

Hammer & Sickle demo is SHIT.

You're not missing anything if you don't d/l it. There's nothing new in the demo, PLUS you cannot massacre a whole squad of enemies in a mission area or else you're automatically booted into a map the moment you exit it where 1000 enemies are pointing guns at you, and if you DO manage to own them *coughcheatscough*, when you kill the third last enemy on this map the script kicks in again and some wanker calls in artillery and you lose automatically.

Talk about a shitty game.

The engine was designed for the Xbox 360 and mid-to-high-end PC hardware (well, the SM3.0 path was, obviously the SM1.1 path was for Xbox and lower-end PC's). SC4 on X360 will have all the SM3.0 goodies (and HDR) that PC gamers have in SCCT.

I played the demo of Chaos Thory, didn't care for it, and if the demo didn't interest me I can't see the full game doing much for me, regardless of its pretty shadows and shiny lights.

Am I missing something or is it supposed to be Nite that mentions PS3 and DL that downputs it? You guys have got your roles reversed.

He was just messing around because I'm always saying stupid shit like that about his post. It's just all good and fun. Even though I mentioned nothing of the PS3. I was clearly going for the graphics between PC vs 360. Which you have to admit PC can handle anything the 360 has. Only if you have a high end graphics card though.

[Dark_Swordmaster]

Fuck, that means POP: Two Thrones will have fucking Starforce too



I still need someone to help me "fix" Starforce! Everything I'm trying to play with it is 100% legal! Is it Daemon tools? I can easily uninstall them then! But all that I've heard is it's seeing my DVD/CD burner, which I won't disconnect.

[LynX]

It doesn't like burners. Starforce FTW!

Its the sole reason why i haven't got this game or any of the others that use it. Boycott their goddamn games until they get the message.

Whatever i have on my computer is my own goddamn business, and no shitty software is going to dictate what i want to put in it.

[FATMAN]

Fuck, that means POP: Two Thrones will have fucking Starforce too

thats playable too, but u gotta unplug your cd roms

[xenophage]

So what does Starfuck do?

[Downfall]

it recognized software such as Daemon tools, and other emulating software and doesnt alow the instalation of the game to continue until the "bad" software is gone.

[RAY16]

Eh, it's not designed to mess with emulation software unless it detects that the game is being run from a virtual drive, although I have heard that it messes up DPM measurement when making clones of your own games. Of course, like with every piece of software some people have problems that other people don't.

Wow, they look really scary! Doom 3 monsters pale in comparison. But they sure can use a few more polygons.

[Dark_Swordmaster]

They don't have mouths. Lookat 'em! Their "mouths" are just painted on! Man, they must be hella insecure about they're alien bad-assness.

[Mechanerd]

What is it with the Doom 3 engine, kick ass shadows and lights but alot of the textures seem to suck and the character models always have so very few poly's?

The engine could look endlessly better with a bit of tuning here and their, guess devs are just lazy, though overall Prey looks like the best game to use the engine so far.
I like the idea they use where if you die you go into a spirit area and have to resue your soul in order to live again. Though I should imagine that may get annoying if your constantly dying.
The weapons look interesting, all of them are organic in some way.
I have noticed some of the creatures remind of Duke Nukem 3D, especially those hovering multi eyed things with teeth. 2006 Prey comes out, hoepfully soon.

[Digital Limit]

I'm anticipating it, that's for sure.

Is it worth my time? Which one?

[tisl]

WHOA! I totally fucking forgot about this. Added to my list. Release date is Q1 '06.

Edit: And yeah, Hitman is totally fucking worth your time. The second one was pretty ... meh. Pick up the first one and the third one. If you pick up the first one though, be sure to patch it. If you can't handle 5 year old graphics with no bump mapping and whatever the hell everyone is into these days, avoid it. Definitely go for the third one though.

And what is with the jumbo sized screenshots? Image shack has a thumnail feature for this very reason.

[amirin]

Awesome! Finally a Hitman with modern graphics! I hope the gameplay is better, too. I really love the lighting on the models and that brick all.

i read on Wiki that Blood Money have some great new gameplay features. Like how you do one mission will affect the next one. For example if you mass murder on one mission, you will be posted in newspaper and people are more aware and try to avoid you.

[LynX]

Contracts was meh, i felt i'd "been there done that". Hopefully they have better mission design this time.

[King Of Nothing]

you will be posted in newspaper and people are more aware and try to avoid you.

I really wish this will also bring an intimidation factor, something like that;
"You are that guy on the paper... Please don't..."
"Now have a heart spasm and die. The bullet prices went up."
And I'll go mass murder the first time with cheats... not to explore the game. To see if it is good advertisement for ICA :P

Edit; On Hitman games I recommend to get Hitman 1&2 but you don't want to buy two games just get "Contracts", since it is a mixture of 1&2 (the only addition is the "Leon" ending (thought you just kill pretty much everyone instead of getting killed)

[NiteX]

I'm on my 6th play through of Fear.

And what is with the jumbo sized screenshots? Image shack has a thumnail feature for this very reason.

I don't believe you. There is no way in hell that boring of a game could appeal to anyone more than one play through. You're either really brave or really love boring games. I bet if you add the 5 other times you played the game it would be equal to a 14-15 hour game. I just found FEAR to be one of the most boring games I've ever played. I commend you for finding something of interest in it.

[Mechanerd]

Boring? well I guess different people have different tastes, the story is meh but the gameplay is so... fun, repeticious but fun. Can't really describe it, I just enjoy playing it over and over, same thing happened with doom 3, which I've probably played through even more. I think I just have this thing for shadow intensive atmospheric FPS's. :D
Which probably means when I get my hands on Condemned I'll be playing that over and over.

[Dark_Swordmaster]

I think it's fun. Not 6-times worth of fun all over, but certainly fun.

The combat sequences warrent playing them over again at least.

Two videos for you:

www.feargamefiles.com

Download the Interval 06 Afterimage and Interval 07 Alice Wade videos. Done by a guy on the hardest difficulty and he doesn't get hit at ALL. He also blows through the levels and doesn't stop for plot points, something that sounds like you are bored about.

[RAY16]

Need For Speed 4: High Stakes. ~50MB each, both a little over 6 Minutes. You'll notice the video skips every now and then, I'm not sure why I get so many hitches and dropped frames when trying to record this game.

[King Of Nothing]

Peasants I assume... I rather refer an iron pole, you know to increase the odds of taking slaves, or you run them down on a charger. The game is still made by a team of two but they moved to a real office in order to recruit more people. And there is albeit small but dedicated mod community (the axe for example is from a mod I can't name now, also there is one adding quests and a story!). The future is bright for this game, brigther then any major company titles.

BTW, buy M&B while it is cheap, they are increasing the price with every major patch till it hits 20$.

I dunno the game looks kinda lame. The graphics are decent, but everything else seems so god damn generic and boring. Kinda like what Gears of War is going for. The only thing that separates Gears of War from this game is that GOW is mainly in complete darkness. No idea why someone would want to make another Doom 3. I hope the only thing these UE3 games have going for them isn't the graphics. I just have a feeling that all these games will go they way Unreal 2 went.

[Mechanerd]

Hey Unreal 2 was awesome, am I the only one that enjoyed that game?
Fuck a sequel would be nice.

But yes indeedy I too think we're getting way to many games that are focusing on visuals while the gameplay is either unoriginal, dull or just plain shit.

I tried playing the xmp ad on, but I guess having a legit copy of the game would have helped because it wouldn't install. Tribes: Vengeance, if their is anyone who hasn't got that game they should go get it right now, because that was an awesome fps. Like UT2004 but with jet packs.
Now that i think about it, Time Shift is coming out soon, looks to be a very fun fps.
And for once the 'bullet time' thing is actually used properly in a game. Their was a funny bit in one of the trailers where a guy walked up to an enemy npc, froze time, took his gun and then unfroze time then the npc looked at his hands and went huh? and the guy playing shot him with it. :D Good stuff.

Thanks to this mod patcher thing you can add all the special/bonus cars to the shop, and they are unlocked from the start...

It was followed shortly after the release in a free download, XMP was probably the most fun I've had playing an onling FPS since Tribes.

Twas great, except for those goddamn gas grenades...

Yeah, to this day the thought of those gas nade spamming cock smugglers makes me want to choke babies.

A recent CS:S session. The unnamed one is resident Epsilon:

So are you bragging about how much you owned Epsilon? :p

[RADiator]

No not at all. In fact I was rather surprised, no shocked is a better word for it to find out how good he is with deagle.
The AWP arena was a stupid map, slightly fun but stupid none the less. As for inferno as you see the frag count is equal. I only won due to the fact that I bombed the sight.

I love CSS. Rad, you must join TSB and I in a game sometime. Maybe have an Atrip game, if we can get more people in on it.

[RADiator]

Sure, aim me some time and we can arrange that. All though CS:S is getting on my nerves lately being buggy as it is right now but I can always make an exception.

[Dark_Swordmaster]

I'm game. As soon as I fix the fucking ATi problem. But that'd take enough money to get me a nice Nvidia card...

What's buggy with it? I haven't had any problems with mine, at all. Works great.

[Dark_Swordmaster]

Dude, we seriously need to commit to this. An AT "clan" match? Sounds like it'd be hella fun. As well as hella... Odd.

I'm bring my "camcorder"...

[Striker]

I remember talk of an Atrip clan in general a long while back, but it never seemed to work. :(
