Accurate human rendering in game [2014-2016]

Should keep an eye out for Far Cry Primal http://www.esrb.org/ratings/Synopsis.aspx?Certificate=34265&Title=Far+Cry+Primal+

 

Realistic bulge physics. Finally.

 

Please no.

 

It's start.

I'm so yearning for the day where character animation (especially facial expressions) and A.I. work hand-and-hand perfectly in gaming. I would love to see an open world game where the main characters and NPCs emotions are displayed on their face... relating to their environment conditions and interactions with each other. Where a smile leads to a hello... or a hello leads to a smile. Where a rainy or sunny day can affect their general mood... and it shows within their facial expressions and movement (body language).

I know, I'm asking for too much...

 

Now, call me weird, but one thing I put my eye on a lot are... joints (the absence of deformation in the muscles when joints are bent, etc.). Joints and fingers. I hate how fingers are usually on such unnatural positions, like, always spread apart, rigid, static...

They will be sexy and they will know it (so they will wiggle and stuff...).

 

You are not weird, or we both are. (well this is beyond3d, every poor bastard here is hell of weird) but hands always cal my atention. Those bone-less sausage fingers seem to never go away.

 

I am not weird. I am different. Unique. One of a kind

 

We both can agree to that : P

We need a new thread for that pic. Accurate armor rendering in games.

 

Impressive

 

It's not skimpy enough to offer any sort of decent armour class.

 

I kinda don't like it that much... Part of it has to be the lighting though, the rim lights are too strong, and the armor does not benefit from it either. Also, the eyes don't blend in well; and skin lacks the fine details for some reason.

Could still work pretty well inside the actual game though.

 

I'm with Laa-Yosh. Also, the left ear does not receive the light for some reason and it's much darker than the rest of the skin, looks like it has some circulatory problems and about to fall off.

 

living in space can be tough

 

Colton is Mark Hamill but, hell, it's hard to tell.
Gary Oldman is more recognisable but still it looks wrong in some way; Halo 5 charters are much more faithful to the actors.



Their eyes look more like ceramic eyes than real eyes to me.

 

Colton has an deformed nose like the real Hamil.





This is one of the 30 secondary characters and he looks very similar (in my opinion).

Video with the character

 

Difference could be just the lighting...

 

I think since they show Gary Oldman video they improved. I find it a bit on the uncanny valley side.

Halo 5 cutscene facial animations or UC4 cutscene facial animations were much better than this video. I prefer model of Mark Hamilton or pupil too... It is a work in progress...

 

Skins are too soft, it miss maybe some little imperfections...
