Forums - Gaming - Uncharted 4 first trailer and Uncharted 1 first trailer : Comparison

The difference is noticeable, but the original Uncharted looks much worse than I remembered!

Theres almost NO hype around this because everyone thinks its CGI lol

ND, too awesome for their own good

I believe there is no hype because its not in-game gameplay.  Using the whole system to render a cut scene is not the same as in game gameplay.  What it means is the PS4 Uncharted Engine can make some nice cutscenes but until we see actual gameplay, its no different then watching a CGI cutscene.

If ND had some small gameplay where they could show that scene going from cutscene to actual gameplay and not lose anything in between then that would make that cutscene more impressive.  Even so, not knowing how UC4 will end up as a game may or may not make that scene more impressive then Far Cry 4.  When I watched the gameplay from FarCry 4, the game as a whole is truly impressive because everything you see you can actually navigate to.  Its not just static scenery where a developer can pump out the best scene.

It would be very funny if that happens. I mean this looks like CGI...every website has reported this as a teaser CGI trailer.

What comes after CGI levels of image quality...i have no idea :O


games played in lucid dreams, though youll have to put up with vr for a decade or two before that. 

I don't know, if VR is done right it might be decent.  If anything, one thing games (at least first person games) have never been able to capture is peripheral vision.  Its like you are moving in a tunnel with blinders on, even after the move to wide screen TVs.

 

Curved screens on a headgear might open up some options there.

Yeah, but gameplay would have ruined the mystique / tease of the intial trailer.  We're just going to have to take their word for it for now.  Given what we've seen from Infamous (large open world), and even the Order, I have no doubt that ND can come up with gameplay that looks very very close if not identical to the trailer.

And yes, FC4 did look amazing (wing suit through mountains, amazing scale I think).

Personally I see no reason ND cannot pull off gameplay looking the same as that cutscene.  What I am hoping is that trying to get that kind of graphics in-game doesn't make the game a cooridor shooter hybrid.  UC3 is probably a good example.  I actually got bored with the game even though it looks great.  Its a game where ND tighly controlled and if you tried anything outside of where the game was leading you, you died or hit walls.  It makes for a great visual for the game but it also make the gameplay kind of stale (at least in my opinion).

Will gameplay actually look like this though? Naughty Dog started the whole thing where they show you footage from a PS4 system...but the game doesnt really look like that during actual gameplay.

Also, every gaming website calls the footage CGI :/ If this is gameplay then theres a MASSIVE misconception going around. General feeling around the trailer was that it was underwhelming.

I thought it was pretty awesome considering its not CGI.

 

Even Eurogamer had doubts about it being real time. Their article hasnt really changed.

I've also watched a lot of impression videos from famous youtubers and a lot of them say its a teaser trailer in CGI....similar to bloodborne etc.

Hey im pretty impressed by the trailer i thought it was amazing....but i also had initial doubts about it being in game. Once i did some more research i saw it was in game from an actual level confirmed by ND...im just saying most impression videos and articles i have read have not been amazed by the vid because they either dont believe its real time or they think its CGI...unless i am horribly mistaken and have a wrong impression.

 

I'm not saying the impressions have been bad though...im saying theres been lots of questions over whether this is in real time or not. Even GAF doubted it...

You really havent seen this around the net?

Once people realise its in real time then yeah they are pretty blown away


You said that every websites were calling the footage CGI. That simply isn't true, and wasn't either at first. Some people doubted, some people were blown away, some were sulking, but it wasn't a consensus like you're pretending it was.

The only thing I've seen that has been negative, and it's not widespread by any measure, was that the footage was only a teaser without any gameplay parts. Most people were blown away from the get go by the implicatioon at the end of the teaser that this was all real-time. And it went even crazier, VERY shortly after (like, half an hour after the conference) when Corrine Yu confirmed that this was indeed captured from a PS4 running those visuals in real time.


Yeah sorry it was the impression i got though...

Was probably an exageration on my part to say that every gaming website is calling this CGI. What i can say for sure though is that a lot of youtuber impression videos have implied it was CGI.

Also around the negativity...that was more how people were seeing it as if this was CGI. It really is the impression i got over the last couple of days since the reveal. Probably just me.
