Titanfall High VS Insane Texture Graphics Comparison

GR - "Here's what Titanfall looks like with all the settings maxed out, with its highest, 'Insane' setting."

It's a good thing my PC's specs are high enough to run the beta on Insane.

Even though any quad core Intel CPU from the last 6 years will run most games at their full potential, you still need a mid-high end graphics card if you want to play newer games at high fps @ 1080p.

I'm personally waiting for UE4 & Source 2 engine games to start coming out before i upgrade my GPU, nothing new i want to play right now.

I have a 5850 which was very high end when I got it still on the edge of high end from 5 years ago. I can say this game doesnt push anything at all. In fact when I am playing TF my GPU isnt even working hard as I can tell by the sound of my gpu fan when its really in full throttle. I can say however the game runs at a stable frame rate so its pick your poison. I wouldn't have mind for better visuals and play it at 30fps though it looks very bad when you just finished playing BF/KZ.

I played this on my 670GTX at 2560x1600 and runs butters smooth -- this isn't a taxing game. And it sure isn't that great looking either. Art direction is boring, lighting is really flat. Textures are high res, yes, but that doesn't save how this game looks TO ME. I do like the wallrunning and double jumping, not enjoying the mechs as much. Curious to see how see how the game intertwines MP with SP since it supposedly has an ending.

I put everything to high and insane. I could not connect to a server. The minute I dropped everything to just high and 2xaa I was able to get in. It was weird considering I have two very powerful cards. However, the game looks very good in 1920x1080.

Even on Insane the game looks like its dated back to year 2005. The game just looks god awful and the game play is even worst. Even in 3 weeks the game wont look much different on release which is really sad. Activision went the right direction with Destiny which will be the long lasting game while titanfall will be a flash in the pan until the next game comes out.

ps4...cough...cough

The beta footage was enough to get me to pre-order the PC version. I just can't wait to play the game and I'm not planning to get the Xbox One until later on down the line.

[Volkama]

If you really can't wait then open origin and check your list of games. Beta will be there ready to dl and play until 19th (end of I assume)

[hulk_bash1987]

I've downloaded Origin and checked but sadly no beta download.

[Crazyglues]

@ Volkama

Your right, didn't need the code, downloading now.. wow Interesting?

-But maybe that's because I had signed up for the beta - I just checked my email and they did send me a code..

so not sure if that's why it's there or if it's just there for everyone.?

[Volkama]

It doesn't appear anywhere on the store, but as a game you already own.

Could be you had to have origin at the point they hit the button or something, in which case all I can say is March isn't that far away :-)

@crazyglues I don't have the answers sorry! I am downloading it right now myself in the manner I described after reading about it earlier today. No code, it's just there. I figured it'd be that way for everyone, so tried to help a gamer out...

[MrGEE]

high looks like low ,and insane like normal

[Conzul]

Yeah.

Though the unimpressiveness might be attributable to poor lighting, not the textures themselves.(i.e. the wire in the foreground of the 3rd picture)

[MrGEE]

true.. and shaders looks poor too.gun looks like its made from plastic.kids and cod players will like it anyway..

[NeoTribe]

And xbox1 like integrated graphics.

[HighResHero]

haha, "Insane setting". That's wacky, no it's bonkers!

[Volkama]

I was hoping "insane" textures made everything look like intestines or something, but so far it's disappointingly sane.

[Trioptical]

Um, the High textures show a player on the Militia side, where as the Insane textures are of a player on the IMC side. That's why the arms looks so different. They're skins representing different characters.

[Lon3wolf]

Getting insane setting on a 7870 paired with a 8350, not checked FPS as no in game counter as far as I know. Seems smooth enough though.

[mochachino]

Textures are pretty bad for a next gen game on any setting imo

[Kennytaur]

I've not got enough video memory on my low end GPU to effectively handle insane, but the quality on high feels more like medium-low. And low quality is hilarious, at N64 levels.

[cyclindk]

Everything on max:

- mechs, while one might argue they are machines and can therefore be expected to be comprised of "angular" rigid parts, it is quite obvious they were designed this way to use FAR less polygons to create. There are numerous components which are blatantly six or eight sided... boxes practically....
- the INSANE textures in this game would be called MEDIUM in any other
- visual effects are truly Half Life inspired
- Blame the devs or the out dated Source engine, IDK... game is very mediocre visually, wish it HAD come out back in the Half Life 2 days.

So is it Engine/Developer limitations or an attempt to cater to the largest number of gamers with less powerful systems? Making a 360 version, X1, and PC (with mediocre visuals) would seem to indicate this.

[Hercules189]

They chose to use the source engine because that was the best engine to use atm to get the best performance. It could look like Killzone Shadowfall but it will have the same performance as Killzone. I assure you this game would look no different on the PS4.

[porkChop]

He never mentioned PS4 once so I don't know why you even brought that up.

[porkChop]

The difference is pretty small. I can really only see a difference on the hands/arms. I don't see how this requires 2 extra GB of VRAM.

[PurpHerbison]

Them graphics looking awfully COD.
