Call of Duty 2014: First Image Revealed
- Thread starter Smurfboy
- Start date
Your first image is much crisp than what I 720p image upscaled can look like. And resolution is definitely not the only difference. And just look at the sudden change in textures and shading just right in here.
So yeah that COD game is going to suck.
If they change the gameplay and stop rehashing maybe I'll give it a try.

All I can say is watch this around the 2:55 mark or so, it's the best representation I could get running real-time using YT's crappy quality. It looks much better when I was playing on my 60" 1080p TV.
Also the beginning of this trailer:

Looks good but it doesn't prove that the rest of the game will look like that. Sure it's a single model or two by itself, but it'll be near impossible to keep such detailed character models in a fully rendered interactive environment to the scale of a war based action game. This might work in NBA Live or Beyond Two Souls where there aren't explosions, vehicles, and free roaming terrain. Is everything else in the game going to look that good? The terrain? The weapon models? Explosions? How much activity can be rendered on screen at once before the engine takes a hit? I sure as hell don't expect such photo realism in an 8 on 8 multiplayer match. Maybe I'm nitpicking here but game companies need to realize that the still image of a single character model does not represent final gameplay. They probably already do realize this. If so, they're taking advantage of their customers' stupidity.

I just can't imagine where a close up shot of COD could warrant any amount of actual discussion. Until we ssee the game playing/looking different while playing. We all know what to expect.
Unfortunately, we all know that million of fans will buy this game anyway. 
I felt like we have too many CoD titles and, recently, it started to drain me a bit. I probably won't buy this year (gonna save it until next year of 2015). It'd be nice if they release new CoD every two years, though.

None of that explains why you posted an image that was clearly rendered at 1080p and not just 720p upscaled. You posted a pre-release screenshot. An in-engine bullshot rendered at full 1080p. The PS3 did not render Beyond at 1080p. The PS3 does not have that kind of power.
Skin looks nice. Can't say I care about the eye. Sure, they could've given more shine and gloss, but it's not like I'll be seeing much of that during gameplay.
That's the thing, they're not bullshots, taken in-game. Look at these gamersyde captures.

Then these are from users over at another forum (all captured in-game):

Those are all 1080p bullshots. They are pics released by the studio prior to game release for various game news outlets to repost for you to view. Gamersyde received a pack of images on March 21 of 2013 just like all the other news outlets, and everyone can see they are clearly rendered at 1080p native.That's the thing, they're not bullshots, taken in-game.

Edit: And the ones posted by users are all 720p instead of the 1080p bullshots like the news outlets. There's a reason for that. The news outlets have bullshots rendered at 1080p.

ok god we get it now STFU about it. This COD should sell more then the last one being as it's being made for new gen people will give it a shot.
over 10 years 1998....
If it uses the same engine I finally will skip the series until they get with the times....that said that pic looks promising.
Okay, I see. Still, the user generated images aren't much different from the ones pre-release. The only difference is resolution, like I said. And to stay on topic, they are still comparable to the first screen of COD 2014 (which is also probably part of a bullshot since like you said, all shots pre-release are bullshots).
Meh. Unless the WW2 visions is exceptionally unique, I find it hard to get very excited for a WW2 game. Personally, I always wanted an Inception game and I'd love it if Activision was willing to do a CoD: Inception game of some sort. They could pretty much do whatever they want.
Now that there is a game I would buy. Long since I bought a Call of duty game, last one was Call of duty 4 .
Does nothing to me. I am glad they did not go out to add nostril hair. That would have spoil my appetite for lunch.
It doesn't look fantastic, but it certainly looks good. god damn it.....I can't believe people think this looks "bad".
