Uncharted 4 Beautiful Direct Feed Screenshots Revealed, Compared To E3 2014 Screens

"Naughty Dog have finally revealed Uncharted 4: A Thief's End in its full glory and honestly, it's looking gorgeous and every other word that means beautiful."

[yuukiliu]

I was absolutely blown away by the demo. Naughty Gods cannot fail.

[SardoNumspa]

It was incredible to see live.

Just like with Sony and Guerrilla matching the Killzone 2 reveal trailer with the same level of graphics in realtime on the PS3 that apoplectic Xbox fans screamed were impossible CGI level. Sony delivers once again what Xbox fans screamed was faked CGI with actual realtime PS4 graphics and gameplay.

[lifeisgamesok]

That wasn't the same graphical fidelity as the E3 video. Watch it again

[pedrof93]

@ Life

Actually it is, but if you compare the left screenshot with rest : http://gamingbolt.com/wp-co...

It seems indeed downgraded, but it only happens due different lighing in the left scene.

But if compare this : http://gamingbolt.com/wp-co... with this http://gamingbolt.com/wp-co...

there's only difference in the lighting.

[ShinMaster]

The game is in alpha at most.

Two different settings.
Different lighting conditions.
And Drake was wet in the reveal.

You'd have to compare with the same scene if and when we see it later in the game or another demo.

I think the tears in your eyes are affecting your vision.

Does look really good - but wish it was 60FPS. Would trade 1080P for 60FPS

[Kayant]

"Does look really good - but wish it was 60FPS. Would trade 1080P for 60FPS" - It's going to 60fps it's 30fps at this stage of development they haven't said anything about changing that and reducing the res might not leave enough room to double the framerate. Doubling the framerate can be twice as demanding on the hardware because more things need to be rendered in a shorter time frame.

[showtimefolks]

Ladies and gentlemen I can confirm we have seen 2015's GOTY ALREADY. And scary thing is it was pre alpha

Also it should put to rest that it will be delayed into 2016.

And people thought a minority of fanboys thought tomb raider can compete with this. Ps4 gamers get both.

[OB1Biker]

I was close to crying XD
Just so awesome to see the Uncharted we all know with well... everything better

[Forn]

This game just looks unbelievably amazing... I'm speechless.

[DoomeDx]

I couldnt resist lol

[Angels3785]

Tomb Raider cannot compete with this...

http://oi39.tinypic.com/1zf...

[jimmyateham23]

YES IT CAN

[Angels3785]

Uh ohhhhh.....

someone is upset :3

[the_dark_one]

it CAN compete, but ultimately lose

[GribbleGrunger]

One thing I can't understand (apart from using only Twitch) was why the hell they didn't finish on this game instead of Jaffe's game?

And to think, this is still one year from completion.

[the_dark_one]

probably because uc4 was what most people wore waiting to see. so open with it and thats done. this way people could enjoy more the rest of the conference cause they worent on the edge of their seats waiting for the uncharted gameplay. well probably

[cruzngta]

simply put...the quality that went into this game is unreal. Look at every object onscreen from the foliage to the stones - everything has such a high level of detail and just looks mindblowing. This adds so much more to the immersion factor - thank you once again ND for delivering another amazing gaming experience for PS4 owners.

[DoomeDx]

To be honest.. I expected more, much more. This wasnt close to the reveal at all.

Maybe its early footage? Or the lighting was just in a bad spot? But textures looked flat, there was no POM and the overal lighting wasnt as good as i'd hoped for.

http://images.gamersyde.com... - The textures look very flat.

http://images.gamersyde.com...

Before you think I am a xbox fanboy, my PSN is DoomeDx and I play a lot of PlayStation. Check out my trophies. I love uncharted and I cannot wait to play this game. But graphic-wise I expected more.

EDIT: Bring in the disagrees. You know I am right. The reveal looked better.

[The 10th Rider]

Yes, I totally noticed the reveal looked better. It does look good, but it's sad people are disagreeing because they don't want to see that. Honestly, was a bit underwhelming compared to what we saw at E3. Impressive, for sure, but not as much as I expected.

Same thing was true for the Zelda footage we saw last night.

Fortunately both have a bit to go before release and hopefully they can match up to their initial E3 reveals.

[hay]

Yeah, I have the same opinion, but we need to keep in mind it's not even alpha yet. I think most of the frame time went into foliage and lightning, cause sampling is damn good, there's still plenty of room to balance that out.

God dang it the quality of the stream really ruined it for me.

Well I guess I'll download the direct feed when its available.

[RatchetandClank]

This game looked so awesome! The wait for this game is going to be such a pain :(

[DigitalRaptor]

That is amazing.

Looks the same to me, except the new demo has different lighting and he's not covered in water, so the reflections are different. The character models are on another level.

[MasterCornholio]

You have to take into account that its a different time of day though. The first time we saw it was night time and in this one its day time.

[Forn]

That's what he meant by different lighting. The Game looks absolutely amazing.

[Manic2014]

The game looked amazing, but in all honesty the game does not look like the E3 build.

That odes not mean it's a downgrade, as the E3 build is a target render. I do though disagree that it looks the same, their are differences.

[HeavenlySnipes]

It actually looks similar other than the hair (e3 version straight up shows individual hairs lol) and the textures on his wet shirt

The graphics look great and the game is still far off

[GMR_PR]

Hair, lighting, post effects, etc...

The game looks great just not first reveal great.

[Xbox_Z_best]

Are you on some kind of campaign here?

[Angels3785]

you are so full of it its not even funny. I can't wait till we see identical scenes from the final game and its the same if not better.

and i can't wait while people like you cry downgrade and it wins best graphics just like EVERY other uncharted game ever made.

people said the same about infamous second son and they ate their words when it was found just to be a change in time of day.

good luck with your campaign.

[HeavenlySnipes]

I can bet the game will look better at night than during the day.

[GMR_PR]

@Xbox_Z_best

No campaign just calling it as I see it. Why you don't like my opinion?

I have big hopes for this games and I don't really want to see it downgraded, but the downgrade is there at least on this reveal, like many are saying is a early still so maybe the final build will match the first reveal.

[Forn]

You so funny!

@1nsomniac below

Yeah, it's crazy how a different time of day affects the look of the scene. And goodness, when Drake is wet I can't believe the light interacts with him differently. Downgrade! /s The trolls are so salty over how gorgeous Uncharted 4 looks.

[timmyp53]

Indiana JONES! Loving the rope!

[Blackleg-sanji]

Wanna kno the best part about this demo...that glitch proved this was the real deal and i love that no fake gameplay straight up ps4

[Speak_da_Truth]

I actually saw someone say ryse looks better and idk what to say and worse after saying that he also wrote fact at the end of the statement. Idk how to facepalm this one.

[leemo19]

It looks good for a game that's still months away from the actual release.

[Xbox_Z_best]

And the game is an year away. Mind = blown!

[Damrock]

Direct feed for anyone looking.

[guyman]

Wow, U4 game blew me away!!

[lemoncake]

The e3 screens are considerably better showing a lot more details than what we seen today, the new screenshots still look great though compared to other games and makes it the best looking next gen game so far. The slickness of the fighting and the environment were the main draws for me though, very good.

[1nsomniac]

We all knew it wasn't ever going to look like the E3 footage, even though Naughty Dog themselves claimed it was real-time in-engine (give them the benefit of the doubt as it was their TLOU remaster phase of PR comments)

The question was how close was it going to look. It's not that far off but it's not groundbreaking by any stretch.

Day 1 purchase either way though!

[Sm00thNinja]

Game doesn't look like the E3 reveal no matter what anyone says regardless it's still better looking than Ryse

[Angels3785]

from the article:

"some people have noticed a slight drop in quality of the gameplay screens... however we think that is due to the difference in time and weather conditions, resulting into different lighting effects."

that is the general consensus.

[Spid3r6]

That is not the general consensus since they are known in downgrading graphics in the final product. Its not grown breaking when you look at what they did.. Making foliage all over the place is easier then making dynamic background such the case with RYSE.

[Angels3785]

L-O-L

Spin!!! cling!!!

like your life depended on it!!!

[SoCalledMe]

http://gamingbolt.com/wp-co... so yeah time of the day also changes model qualty ( mainly hair , daylight is not good for hair polygons people ! ) , shaders ( material shading hre on clothes ) and makes textures on clothes flat ( cuz obviously moonlight creates more shadows than sunlight to flatten out cloth ??? )

[DonFreezer]

Of course it does Naughty Dogs are the masters of fud and downgrading. And sorry to break your heart but Ryse looks better than this.

[Harold_Finch]

GOTY for me hopefully. It didn't show as much new stuff as i'd hoped. It was Uncharted with better graphics. They did say that the E3 trailer was real time in engine but they didn't say it was gameplay.

I don't really like Jungle environments but it's still Uncharted. I hope they remaster the others so i get to play in the city streets.

That hand to hand combat system mmmmmmmmmmmm yummy

[SoapShoes]

The rope, the stealth, the better traversal, the several ways to play in an area are what made me nuts with excitement. This is Uncharted but much better!

[PR_FROM_OHIO]

Wow this game is shaping up to be special! An to think they still have a ton of time to make it look better!!!

[crashbash]

This really looks next gen - https://www.youtube.com/wat...

This bit in particular, pushing square a few times to kick him off, that's pushing the boundries - https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Can't wait to see the rest.

[Ryan741]

Duckman and his team do not disappoint. Fired shots!!!

[HeMan76]

Biggest downgrade in gaming history ever. Cant believe Sony did it again. It was CGI Cutscene and they claimed that it was real time. What we see today is nowhere close what they have shown E3 2014. Lying is a habit with Sony.

No matter how disaggree with me the facts are facts Ryse killing this game hard and Quantum Break hmmm it has league its own:)

[xenz]

The fact that you call it CGI shows you have no clue.

[Sonyslave3]

The downgrade is not that big it still look nice .

[Spid3r6]

This is not the final product..once the product is finalised to the PS4 we sill see how it shapes up..Driveclub was celebrated as the best ,Graphically that changed once it landed. Go into a Best buy play Forza 5 then play Driveclub...Forza 5 by a long mile.

[ironmonkey]

LoL Please for your own safety do not compare low end games like ryse to a crtically acclaimed award winning everything like uncharted. And if you wanna talk about forza how about them frozen trees? Lol. At least driveclub isnt a downgrade start with that.
