>>30004715 Graphics don't matter in games. Let me guess, you probably hate any game made before 1990.

>>30004745 Nope, i love almost all games, but i am especially impressed when something stands out, such as some of the parts of Far Cry 3. Others just look like a polished just cause 2.

>>30004808 I took all these myself, some granted were taken after i captured a radio tower and the camera panned around, hence why no HUD.

Here are a couple i didnt find particularily appealing, just so you can see what the game looks like at its worst.

20 min later 30005021 I am
There is only one thing I hate about Far Cry 3. That's the way you "Fix" the radio towers. You just completely rip out the circuit board and flip a switch thing, and it's the same thing on every radio tower. It pisses me off to no end. Great game otherwise. It's fun as fuck setting shit on fire too.

>>30005021 there were some definite issues with small stuff like this that made me cringe. repetitive audio, repetitive skins, same exact "ewww i'm skinning animals" despite after murdering hundreds of people. farcry3 graphics weren't bad, but they weren't crysis. not that it should matter.

>>30005054 Probably, that was bugging me too. I'll poke around in the settings and see if i cant do something about it. What do you think it would be called?

>>30005075 I fucking laughed my ass off when it started playing the reggae dubstep when i was torching the pot fields. I went as fast as i could through that part to get it to stop as soon as possible. It felt like the waves of enemies were never going to end and i kept running out of assault rifle ammo.

I really liked the face animations in Asscred 3. And people actually looked like different characters and not copy pasted NPCs

Graphics look like shit compared to what they can be. I always say I am going to make a game demo to prove how good looking games can be on the PC, but I'm far too lazy and depressed to actually do it.

>>30005218 For it to play 4 player split screen with old ass technology and for it to look like that. I think it deserves at least a little respect. FYI: Pic actually goes into first person exactly the way it looks

The game is pretty awesome, and is probably going to be one of the only single player games released in the past 10 years i'll play all the way to the end.

>>30005054 Aye, you can turn every texture off! http://www. youtube .com/watch?v=geoCCYoiGJA&feature=player_embedded That place, where you tweak depth of field, you can turn off shadows etc, it will take them out and enhance your performance, but do keep in mind NEVER to change your settings and the shadows that are neccesary will remain, as in, npcs.

>>30004690 I honestly remember Crysis 1 having more tree variety than this. Also in Far Cry 3 the trees in the background turn in to 2D sprites that look awful. I don't recall Crysis doing that either.
