Why do people pretend this looks good? idTech engine is shit. Megatextures are a failed experiment. They look blurry, the pop-in, and they perform like shit. This lighting looks like its from an xbox 360 game. Why the fuck is MachineGames, who are talented developers, slaving themselves to a dead and outdated engine? This goes for all of Bethesda, really. Their in-house proprietary engines are garbage. Prey was in CryEngine, and coincidentally was their first modern looking game they've ever made.

Technology doesn't matter as much as artistry and budget. Wolfenstein has top notch production values. And I hope they switch to Doom version of the engine that doesn't have pop in textures.

Prey was a great game but the worst use of the cryengine i have ever seen.

Prey looked like shit as well

Megatextures are fine after hardware and APIs started supporting them directly in 2012-2013. In that version of idtech it was done via software hacks. Most current games utilize them now.

Agreed. I went from constant 120fps the entire game to 25-30 fps for the entirety of the time spent in the reactor area.

Artstyle is all most people including myself really care about.

What is a Mega texture?

it doesn't look bad either, not every game needs a frostbite engine tier graphics

>Most current games utilize them now

No they don't. Neither Unreal 4, Unity, or CryEngine, the 3 most popular engines, use them in any sort of format.

Instead of having different textures for different things, or tiling smaller textures, you have giant, gigabyte-size textures that plaster the whole map.

Yes they do? They just don't call them megatextures.

While other companies focus on graphics and neglect gameplay, Bethesda makes sure to neglect both

The cutscenes looked like the last game but the actual gameplay looked a lot better, way better lighting.

Textures will be shit but not as bad as the Wolfenstein TNO because at least they're using IdTech 6 now.

The real question is why would anyone pay for cultural marxist garbage? Only a retard would pay for some game featuring a hideous sassy negress with one of those disgusting huge brillo pads on her head.

>No they don't. Neither Unreal 4, Unity, or CryEngine, the 3 most popular engines, use them in any sort of format.

UE4 bakes its lightmaps as one huge texture, so your statement is bullshit

This. Muh graphics don't matter if 1) the game has a cohesive aesthetic and 2) it's fun to play.

It's a game, not a tech demo.

Source. Because I develop in UE4 and Unity, and they don't.

>new engine
>Frau Engel looks worse than in TNO

how did they even manage that?

docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/SparseTexture.html

No it doesn't. You literally specify the lightmap resolution for each item separately.

idk but everything else looks much better

That looks worse than Bioshock Infinite.

>pretend
But it does look good?

>recently play wolfenstein tno
>graphics look like ass
>story is tired and lame
>characters suck
>gameplay is repetitive and boring

Pic related, it's where I stopped watching the recent trailer.

"Just who da fuck is you, whyte boi?"

Wrong, and the point is that it looks better than IdTech 5 Wolfenstein

Yeah no, retard.

2008 Xbox 360 called and asked for their Brown & Bloom™ Rubble Simulator back.

With every game they develop or publish, Bethesda shows how much they hate their idiot fanbase.

Art style and the great German actors.

Might not matter to Burgers but I speak German and Frau Engel and her boy toy really made The new order shine.

Have environments that aren't tiled/repeated textures. People like to meme that it is a bad thing but it is pretty impressive and opens up a lot in terms of environmental design.

I don't care a ton about voice acting.

I think if you aren't deaf and autistic you should be able to tell a good performance even if you cannot speak the language.

you realize lightmaps have existed since quake right?

>waaah why doesn't the sunset in a battlezone look like mario with rainbows

yes and then it bakes them into one huge map, this the same as a tile based map for 2d game.

>When a lightmap is baked it's not just a single texture for each object. These get put into a texture atlas that stores multiple lightmaps for objects in the world. You can view these lightmap textures for each level by going to the World Settings and expanding the drop downs under the Lightmass section.

good god you're stupid!

Why can Wolfstein show TRIGGER WARNING swastikas, but Call of Duty can't?

Did Breath of the Wild use megatextures?

So let's recap, the political left just desensitized people with 2 years of calling Trump and his supporters Literally Hitler, and nazis. The man took an electoral shit on democrats.

The new trailer has nothing but "whites are evil except the bearded numale trash who hang out with negros to overthrow whites."

It's already established that the fantasy army of leftist game consumers don't exist and that most people who purchase video games are still heterosexual white males.

All the status signaling cultural marxist garbage that the game industry shit out last year suffered catastrophic or underwhelming sales.

Generation Z is sickened by the millennial generation and are the antithesis of everything the kikes have forced in the culture wars.

dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3790614/They-don-t-like-drugs-gay-marriage-HATE-tattoos-Generation-Z-conservative-WW2.html

The new Wolfenstein is dead in the water and they don't even know it.

>mfw yet another snowflake game gets shit on in the free market

because surprise surprise, Call of Duty is fucking gutter trash

Doom has pop in on the weapons. If you load a new level and select different weapons, you will notice the textures loading on each weapon.

Nice reverse-viral-marketing, shill.

Also,
>linking the daily mail
>expecting to be taken seriously

You've made it too obvious

yes and mega textures have existed since 2d plattformers
nothing is new, just a shitty name to bring up hype

idtech 5 is such a shitty engine, such a shame that evil within 2 will still use it..

...

That looks nice.

I think I hear RINOs having a baseball game, be a good butthurt bernvictim and run along.

>UE4 bakes its lightmaps as one huge texture

as every unreal engine and any engine that uses lightmaps, user

you've convinced me to pre-order.

What's it like to play wolfenstein as a kraut?

Call of duty just doesn't want to have to release a censored version - Wolfenstein the new order was censored in Europe, and this one will be too.

>That shitty looking arm with the nice looking gun
>that lack of real time shadows

Well at least it has fog, I guess

One of the reasons why people like The New Order and Old Blood was because of the those Tarantino-esque scripted moments, where the villain NPC acts like a total sociopath around you and makes you shit your pants.

I'm convinced MachineGames used Inglorious Basterds as a major source of inspiration.

It looks like dogshit, the textures are super low res all the time except on the guns - see

>lol my system is fucking trash fuck this game!!!

you're missing the point, UE3/UE4 both have lightmaps, but UE4 batches them togheter into one huge texture.
you talk like megatextures is something unique when UE4 does the exact same thing.

I get to kill commies instead of nazis, so it's okay I guess

This is going to be like Mafia 3. We're going to have months of Sup Forums laughing at this trainwreck, neo-Sup Forums libtards from /lgbt/ will be defending it and pretending that only racists have a problem with it, then the shit game gets released and nobody cares for it leaving it with laughable sales figures.

At that point, the same neo-Sup Forums libtards who defended it will mysteriously vanish and never talk about it again.

I only hope trashing mafia 3 last year helped at least one of their devs consider or actually commit suicide

Far Cry 4, D44M, Battlefield 1, and some other AAA games all use virtual texturing

What!? Fuck, seriously? Again with idTech5? Why not use 6? It's vastly better.

DUDE 100 GIGS LMAO

>play in 4k, everything maxed out
>I-ITS YOUR PCS FAULT!!!!

lol, so you never played an idtech 5 game?

Are you this retarded?
>Whites are evil
This is an alternate timeline where the Nazis won WWII, lets recap some history, Hitler was out to purify Germany of races he felt were obsolete...so yes the now reining Nazi's would mostly be white and probably blonde with blue eyes. I am certainly no fan of liberal bullshit, but you going around saying this shit makes you just as bad as them. Go back to Sup Forums or the_donald kid.

What the fuck are you smoking?

>first game is very well liked and did well
>this one is more of the same and will do just as well

I love how you will bring up 'muh Sup Forums boogieman' when that is the exact, only corner of the internet that is so asspained about this game

>This is going to be like Mafia 3.
MachineGames =/= Hangar13

I just played The Old Blood a few days ago and everything looked nice as hell.

fucking ouch

you're full of shit

>people like Mafia 1 and 2, there's no way they'll hate what we're doing with mafia 3!
>people loved dx: human revolution, they'll love our new game dx: white guilt!

Ok.

So you're blind, okay.

>hurr durr my system is shit so ur blind lole xD

he's just a reverse viral marketer, he's intentionally posting bait so people give him replies and thus the new wolfenstein game gets more board time and more attention.

pretty genius desu.

Yeah I think that guy is going and actually reading up on Unity now. That isn't even a brand new feature it's been in for years, back in Unity 4 even.

>people will now be really upset about killing Nazis
>when no one was the first time round and the only thing that's really changed is that people like me have become more easily triggered by everything

wew

Another stellar Bethesda title and this time they're pandering to the lumberjack shirt with bowtie audience.

Let's spend release day together on Sup Forums enjoying cigars and brandy as the sales figures flop on yet another Jew marxist game.

Again, I already told you I played it in 4k, everything maxed out.

It's not my fault IdTech 5 is the worst engine ever created.

or your system is shit and you set the settings higher than your system can handle lmao

another reverse-viral-marketer detected

>1070
>shit

Okay kid

>everything looked nice as hell.

>1070
>not shit

Didn't look like ass in my game. Something's wrong with your system.

Americans call everyone they don't like nazis. It is a bit strange for my European sensibilities.

Calling someone a nazi is a serious thing here and not to be done lightly.

>i-its ur s-system!!
>meanwhile DOOM runs 4k/60fps maxed out

>Americans call everyone they don't like nazis
Gonna need some proof, friendo.

Looks fine to me dunno why you sperg out.

never ascribe to malice that which can be explained by incompetence

Why is the 1070 shit?

>r/t_d user
>never been to Sup Forums
I don't habeeb it
Sup Forums is 70% redditors now

Clearly you haven't plated Doom.

Fuck reddit seriously. They have never not been awful.

Wrong, they stay in their /ptg/ safespace most of the time.

>everyone is triggered about something
>can't offend anyone
>not even neo nazis

So in a few years who can we shoot in videogames for fuck sake?!

>Posts that disrespect President Trump will be quickly removed
>spend 8+ years disrespecting Obama
>can't even take a little bit of actual criticism once they get someone in office

Holy shit
unreal

I'm not him

also, we can't compare lightmaps with megatextures

that HUGE lightmap texture you are talking about in unreal engine 2 was at least 4096x4096 and loaded in his entirety on memory, a megatexture is (on idtech4) a 32,768×32,768 and the engine only loads what you are seeing at the moment (this is the joke of this tech)

I talk specifically about those two versions because I actually worked on them, I don't know what happens now

the train level-scene-moment was tense as fuck

...

you can't brainwash people if you let criticism in

>you need to have a $700 card for parts of this game to not inexplicably look like ass

lol?

You have to go back to neogaf.

>1070
>shit
>best price to performance is shit
>everything is shit
>your pants are full of shit
>you're a shithead

They said Americans were ready for a black president. I knew better.

"It's gonna backfire". I was right.
