Forums - Gaming - PS4 Version of MGS: Ground Zeroes uses Atmosphere Simulation for the Sky

The power of the cloud!

Geez. Kojima-san shows no mercy. If only Western devs where as candid.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

Cloudless blue skies, only on PS4. Clearly it can't handle the cloud rendering PS3/360/Xbone can.



Who cares about that.. The rocks are still the same and that disappoints me. :(

Atmosphere Simulation engine tutorial :

Usa a gray shades texture for the sky.

Apply a random 70% transparency blue on it.

Increment the transparent texture towards black every x seconds.

Enjoy.

Yeah, people are boasting about the sky and we haven't really seen what make it unique yet.

Based solely on the pic, the cloudy sky seems more impressive.

The sky looks so much better on the PS4 version, really life like. Why does the Xbone have last gen PS360 sky?


Bottleneck confirmed ! XBone can't handle deep blue texture =o

Edit : After some thinking, i came to the conclusion it's ESRAM fault.

Well he knows that the majority of sales are going to be on the PS3/PS4 anyway, so he doesn't really have to worry when he says stuff like this.

No, its due to Kinect eating up resources.

We can only hope they patch it in with the new SDK.

Kojima loves to troll, anyone who's played MGS4 knows that. He's having the PS4 version simulate the CLOUDS better lol! The pun is too obvious.
