New PC Screenshots released *Updated*

[Corporal Hicks]

For the record the design is the same as Cameron's except for the triple-joints. None of the bucktoothed crap.

Yes, it must be the lighting.

[Corporal Hicks]

Oh and the tail! My appologies! It certainly isn't the fleshy variation of recent times.

[visagepoissons]

speaking of FSAA: I've read that AvP, like Killzone 2, heavily relies on differred rendering. The upside is the sheer amount of atmosphere you can add, the downside is that FSAA won't work.

Oh god... If this is true I will cry... That's the reason that Dead Space can't use anti aliasing. Still, that game was very atmospheric. But the constant flickering of those un AAed models did take away from the immersiveness.

That's because it's not right.

Not to start anything, but how is it not right?

To be honest, to cry about FSAA when a game looks like this... Seems a bit like being a crybaby for the sake of it. Sure, it'd be nice to have FSAA, if available at affordable framerates, it get's turned on. But if it just is impossible, so be it, it'd still be a freaking good looking game.

if theres no AA you could always up the resolution to take the edges awaay alittle..........

[The_Silencer]

In general terms and on lower resolutions, as for example 1024x768 or so.., x2 or x4AA makes a difference. Just my 2 cents on that.

Even on my 24" widescreen with 1920*1200 resolution, I just tend to prefer 4-8X FSAA, so it just looks smoother. But if a game hardly runs on that resolution, I'm quite fine with regular rendering.

Hicks, are the arms we've seen in newer screenshots and MP vids newer version of the alien arms or just a new MP skin or something? The don't really look like the usual alien arm designs.



Thought you might know since you played it recently.

[GrimyGhost]

are you serious? you can hardly see the arms in the new screenshot?

And yet they are distinctly different. The are around the wrists particularly. I'm not complaining at all, I'm just curious as to what brought on the change.

i gotta say, the last pic looks kick-ass. if the game plays even half as good as it looks then its a winner.

Or just forcefully enable it through either via nVidia control panel or the ATI catalyst drivers etc.
