Better wiev distance "needed".

Tapio75

Hey.

I think the game looks pretty awesome as it is, but the fig is always close.

I think it would be good time, to improve the engine on part of wievdistance a bit. A proper LOD needs to be added and the wiev distance needs to be greater, so the awesome scenery can be seen at its full glory.

There was a mod that allowed people to do this, but it has not worked for a long time, and because the LOD is not well done yet, the results were not that good. Also, it completely emoved fog which is bad thing.

I think this needs some adressing.

I think the game may need a better drawl distance, and perhaps a second take on the base-game world in terms of clutter and object density. (i.e. the Grahtwood does not feel like a dense jungle, it feels like a lightly wooded area, with a tree every now and them.) This game could use more tree density in forested zones, and more clutter in the base game zone to compete with rival games, and ever there own new DLCs.

Yes agree, it definitely needs more trees, grasses and clutter but the draw distance of grass at least could be larger, maybe twice as much as it is now at maximum setting.

All without increasing lag or demand on the hardware, of course.

Thing is, one cant expect more detail and quality without need of better hardware. This is something gamers need to accept and also the limitations on consoles hinder this a bit. Quite frankly, i feel often, that console versions are helding the game back on quality compared to PC only, but then again cponsoles give some more money so its good to have them as well.

Densely wooded areas would indeed be great. Grahtwood is good example of where improvments could be made to make it feel more jungle like.

Many things could be added and the sliders for quality added as needed. Tree density slider, clutter, physics mimicing and so forth.. One can achieve an illusion of physics with simple animations.

The overall texture quality could also use a bit better quality with added levels of texture quality.

Important thing is, that there are enough adjustments for players to tune the game wotk best on their hardware and even alloww stutter if so wanted. For example some players could want a better looks for screenshots and play with less.

Unfortunately this game can't handle the number of polygons on screen as is, with lag and texture pop in, I can't imagine the game state if things had a draw distance increase of even 10 or 15%. I too think this would be great but I think we need some improvement on performance before we start straining the system more.

Lets just say, that its sufficient but not optimal. My current setup would not handle more graphics that well on this engine, but its about time to update some stuff anyways.

i was just curious.... my rig is probably more than optimal and the game looks fine.

hey, i was just looking for a conversation about the issue rather than my stuff is better than yours ok?

oh, i agree with your sig.

@jedtb16_ESO

No worries, conversation is always nice thing

Well, its an AMD based system with 4.2ghz AMD FX 6 core processor and Sabretooth FX mobo, dont remember the exact chipset 32Gb memory DDR 3 @166. Radeon R9 290.

Game is running on SSD drive as well as the system as a whole.
As you can see, the stuff is somewhat outdated, but i have managed to play with it sufficiently until now Think i need to update the videocard first and then see about the other stuff..
