Leaked Fallout 4 Uncompressed PS4 Screenshots Look Much Better And Colorful Than Compressed Screens

A whole lot of Fallout 4 screenshots were leaked earlier today. These screenshots were apparently leaked by a user who had access to an early copy of the game. Sadly, these screenshots were compressed and as a result, the quality wasn't that good and it only added to the low quality graphics.

That's different story.Looks much better

UKmilitia3091d ago

the difference makes the other pics loook like last gen.

Bansai3091d ago (Edited 3091d ago )

I wish we could see landscape shots. PNG quality screens or not, they're not gonna magically add shadows and better tessellation

Bansai3091d ago (Edited 3091d ago )

2 new screenshots from the same guy, this time we can see further details and yeah, trees seem like they were just stuck there, no shadows at all etc.

One of those games that look much better in smaller spaces.

Looks last-gen to be honest.

Definitely getting this on PC, look at the lack of shadow draw distance, and the haze is just there to cover up poor LOD.

ini file tweaks will fix that by boosting SDD at least.

b3ast3091d ago

Dont care about shadows I care about playing with a controller :D but yeah good thing we all dont prefer the same I guess.

seanpitt233091d ago (Edited 3091d ago )

Compared to the witcher 3 it does it looks like they was making this game for the ps360 then in the last couple of years decided to put it on the current gen hardware but didn't do much upgrading. I blame the creation engine it's just to old now they can upgrade that as much as they want it's going to look outdated they need to make a new one.

Regardless I will have a amazing time in this world and I cannot freaking wait it's been to long.

zeuanimals3091d ago (Edited 3091d ago )

Wow. Why the disagrees? It's the truth. People care so much about graphics when it comes to literally every other game, just look at all of the articles comparing games on both consoles or the deep analysis articles for all of the big blockbusters and all of the people arguing about this or that looking better. Obviously, people care but Bethesda always gets a pass.

Whether or not they should get a pass lies in how they're utilizing the extremely outdated Creation engine. Creation allows for modding like no other so it's no wonder why they're sticking to it but I don't know if the engine should be holding back the game since modders are able to make Fallout 3 look better than these screens in some areas. It could be that the engine isn't able to be optimized enough for consoles to utilize it fully since it is outdated, meaning the devs have to scale it back a bit for it to run smoothly. This just limits my hopes of what types of mods will be available for conosles.

DC7773091d ago

Much better and love the look overall.

SolidStoner3092d ago

wow, it is a must buy, hope it will be bug free at the start!

zep3092d ago

lol a bethesda game bug free

nbafan4life3092d ago

true gonna be amazing but there will be bugs.........a lot

TwoForce3092d ago

Yeah, every bethesada games have bugs, not saying they are bad, but can be very annoying.

My_Outer_Heaven3091d ago

I don't mind a few bugs, like the hilarious ones that send enemies flying into the sky etc... but I hate bugs that break the game, stopping a mission from being able to be completed which has happened in the past forcing people to revert to an older game save. My advice is save a lot and safe often and not over the top of an old save. Keep old saves in case you need to go back.

Rimeskeem3091d ago

game breaking bug free is more likely

bloodybutcher3091d ago

I really want to buy it, but i'm still thinking about waiting till xmas.All the bugs should, hopefully, be patched by then.

b3ast3091d ago

There is a reason why some call them Bugthesda :D

So many people here complaining about Fallout 4's graphics, but these photo's look fantastic. Currently replaying through 3 and NV and this looks next gen for Bethesda for sure.

If you came here just to say disparaging things about Bethesda games in general (bad graphics, low content, terrible writing, poor optimization, favoritism, commie sympathizers, etc.), well, we've heard you before, and we don't care. Why are you really in this comment section anyway?

boodi3091d ago (Edited 3091d ago )

fantastic ?
you speaking Graphics ?
fantastic ? new gen ?

I'm in the comment section because I like to comment and because i sure buy this game ..but the graphics fantastic ?
not
they look ok
far from fantastic (/new gen wise ..)

I expected a bit more photorealistic and lifelike mood .. or metallic/darkish set and tone .
instead the set and foremost the color scheme and palette remind me of bioshok (on ps3)
http://images.pushsquare.co...

which does look fantasy and fable
but not very much of a postapocalypse

You have obviously never played a fallout game.

These screenshots are awesome for fallout 4.

badz1493091d ago

Not fantastic, but for Bethesda's standard, they are quite good.

nix3091d ago

Wow.. Those look like PS2 graphics. I take it that for Fallout it's great but maaan.. They're like a generation behind.

N4Geeing3091d ago

Oh pleeeeease... stop being technical! The graphics does look fantastic for a Bethesda game,im actually surprise that it even look this good.

PreAtaric3091d ago

@boodi - You're complaining about art direction, not graphic quality.

@Nix - Your memory regarding PS2 graphics is highly flawed.

Ocsta3091d ago

Dude I simply do not get the people complaining about the graphics. To me theres more detail in that Red Rocket building than in anything I saw in the previous games, AND I PUT HUNDREDS OF HOURS INTO THEM! Fallout 3 and NV had so many graphical quirks and a sense of jankiness, you had to purposefully ignore them and focus on the experience! Fallout 4 looks detailed, sharp and thats without even mentioning the leap in quality of the character models! People be trippin'.

zeuanimals3091d ago

Bethesda games don't live in a vacuum, there's a whole wealth of open world games that look better. So why are you comparing it to the previous games? I mean, how low of a bar do you want to set? The previous games even looked terribly outdated for their time.

PSN_ZeroOnyx3091d ago

100% agree with you, bubble up for intelligent

Nivekki3091d ago

'there's a whole wealth of open world games that look better.'

And none of them are as expansive as Fallout 4, none of them. The Witcher 3, as much as I love it, run like crap for ages, it took patch after patch to get it running to a reasonable level. And that game is split up into sections, you can't reach everywhere on one map. And it has far less going on in terms of features.

zeuanimals3091d ago (Edited 3091d ago )

@Nivekki:

Then we'll have to see if it'll run well, and remember, their previous games didn't. But to say that it looks good? That's a separate issue. When people are saying this, that, and this other thing look bad but they give Fallout 4 a complete pass... Isn't that an issue? I'm gonna enjoy Fallout 4, but I'm not going to lie to myself and say it looks good.

BallsEye3091d ago (Edited 3091d ago )

That's nothing, man. If it would be an exclusive title, not multiplatform, the rage about the graphics would be much stronger.

As for me, I like pretty graphics, but a living world (yep, even in a post-apocalyptic game, is more important. Graphics whores screwed up nextgen. This gen was supposed to be about possibilities, not more pixels.

Dynasty20213091d ago

E3 scene: https://i.imgur.com/iF3JdpX...

PS4 leaked laughable graphics screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/HVtIOXZ...

MASSIVE difference, even with the blur.

The PS4 version looks awful in comparison, and E3 was BLATANTLY therefore running on a PC using a controller.

Feralkitsune3091d ago

"and E3 was BLATANTLY therefore running on a PC using a controller."

When the hell aren't they?! It's either running on a PC, or a supped up dev kit. Demos are rarely ever shown on consoles.

Phill-Spencer3092d ago

Honestly i already liked the screens we got earlier and didn't understand the critism towards it. But these simply look beautiful. Can't wait.

cd13091d ago (Edited 3091d ago )

Exactly my thoughts pal, graphically it looks better that Fallout 3 and most seemed to agree it was a class game.

The game looks great but the self-entitled gamers of this generation will complain about anything.
I sometimes forget many of the comments on here are being written by children and hormonal teenagers, i hope they take a look at their comment history in years to come and understand how foolish they looked to everybody else reading.
The other crowd who will slag these screens off are PC elistists (not proper PC gamers btw) just because they were captured off a console...pitiful.

ClayRules20123092d ago (Edited 3092d ago )

Fallout 4 really is a nice looking open world game "In my opinion"

As long as the game keeps me engaged in the story/world that my character is living in & the gameplay has a lot of variety, i'm happy.

Fallout 4 London mod delayed indefinitely because of Fallout next-gen update

If you were excited about the Fallout 4 London mod, we have some bad news for you. The mod has been delayed indefinitely thanks to Fallout 4 next-gen update.

Christopher2d ago

Not a bad thing. They've even shown excitement at what the update could bring to making things better for them. More work? Yeah. But, still a good thing overall.

-Foxtrot2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

I think this looks pretty great so they should take as much time as they need.

It’s kind of shame however we’ll probably never get to see an official Fallout London game or anything set in the UK now because of the mod.

Andrew3362d ago

Why not? It's only gonna be available on PC and is not backed by Bethesda at all

-Foxtrot2d ago

Because Bethesda might think "Meh, London has already been done with that Mod, they've taken the shine away from it and if we do it now they might think we're copying"

Something along those lines.

FPS_D3TH2d ago

While I’d love to see more world building lore in Fallout, I’d be surprised if Fallout ever ventured beyond a United States setting. Maybe a dlc to a main game though. Always wondered what other places would look like, if they too had the 50s culture with futuristic tech.

Richhard12d ago

No point on the update, you can get 60fps anyway with mods.

Fonsecap2d ago

The update will break much more then it will fix... At least on PC.

Fallout Anthology Edition Looks Pretty S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.

-Foxtrot6d ago

It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did

They included physical disc back then

Forgot I ordered this until I got the dispatch email.

Fallout player base begins to grow in wake of acclaimed TV show

The Fallout player base is beginning to grow in a resurgence following the release of the critically acclaimed TV show.

I bet they feel pretty stupid not allowing someone else, possibly Obsidian to do a Fallout game because they could have released it this year near the TV show to capitalise on it.

RaidenBlack7d ago

ironic, given the fact what the TV show did to New Vegas, lol

-Foxtrot7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

You know what the funny thing is...literally 10 MINUTES after making that comment I've just seen what they've done.

I mean it was a chalk board and it still feels a bit ambiguous in places but they didn't actually just do that...right?

FPS_D3TH6d ago

What exactly did the show do to New Vegas?

Wretchedstain6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

@ -Foxtrot. Based on a lot that I've read of your comments, i though we were on the same page (physical media etc non digital at nauseam...) . As Canon, I thought they did pretty well (I'm a hardcore fan), they delved into a pretty decent tie in to expand on for season 2, let alone fan service with nods to certain gameplay aspects along the way. I hope you've watched it to appreciate it 'for what it is', It's good. (Loved seeing Red Rocket station in Ep 7, goosebumps galore throughout the 8 Eps they did let alone that)

Sciurus_vulgaris7d ago

Obsidian has been working on two RPGs (Avowed and the Outer Worlds 2) for the past few years. TV shows and films can be produced much faster than video games.

-Foxtrot7d ago

I meant it as in if they just let Obsidian do this years ago before The Outer Worlds 2 and Avowed was in production. This could have been their next game instead.

ED-E7d ago

Eh depends,development hell can take many years in movies and tv series. Fallout tv series was announced 4 years ago, which was also the main development time of Fallout 4.

But yeah Bethesda was already in full production of Starfield and working on Elders Scrolls on the side. Obsidian was already with Microsoft (while Beth was not) and busy with Grounded and Pentiment. So minor updates/dlcs for their latest games was probably the best they could do.

I would have outsourced a remaster/remake of Fallout 3 to align with the release tv series.

MrBaskerville6d ago

@-Foxtrot
From what I gather they'd rather do Avowed and Outer worlds at this point. Doesn't sound like the current Obsidian really desires to go back to New Vegas at this time.

Obscure_Observer7d ago

"I bet they feel pretty stupid not allowing someone else, possibly Obsidian to do a Fallout game because they could have released it this year near the TV show to capitalise on it."

They´ll certainly take advantage of the next gen upgrade, coming to Xbox Series, PS5 and PC.

raWfodog6d ago

“They´ll certainly take advantage of the next gen upgrade, coming to Xbox Series, PS5 and PC.”

You mean ‘current’ gen, right? ;)

Obscure_Observer6d ago

@raWfodog

"You mean ‘current’ gen, right? ;)"

Precisely. Thanks ;)

Chard6d ago

Bethesda probably resents that Obsidian made the best Fallout game

mastershredder7d ago

If you thought '76 made Fallout feel mainstream, now we have a TV show that looks like a cosplay convention. The clean duds and Garbage Kid- Looking power suits (Head scale) are killing me. I think that it's nice that there's something for tv viewers to glimpse at why people like Fallout, but they are only getting a filterd down, made for series-seasonal tv (ew), passanger's flattened persfective with no risk based upon actions or consequese or social/non-social stangings that are experienced in the game.

The series represent's itself as a Fallout the tv show for people that need that kind of pacing (again ew), not the Fallout the game. Some people will dig this. I can see them having reason to, considering everying the show is borrowing to make it something Falloutish. It not for me, and I'm cool with that.

Wretchedstain6d ago

I am a MASSIVE fallout fan, I have a computer desk shine THAT IS FALLOUT and no other. The show was amazing to me, and bias had nothing to do with that, my trepidation was ultimate. The tie in to 'something' New Vegas, had me cheering like a sports fan at the end there (I have the collectors edition, and covet its mint condition highly) and I hate sports. I love a lot of other gaming, movie and TV show things, what they have done its pretty damn cool to me.

marioJP876d ago

Checking out the show possibly tonight or tomorrow for sure. Hope it’s as good as everyone says.

anast6d ago

I have to watch it. Hopefully it's better than the recent Fallouts.
