[orangpelupa]

i think yes, it is true MGSV coming to PC
i look at the source code and got the article excerpt

Tonight's MGSV:TPP Preview Show revealed; with a twist of METAL GEAR SOLID humour, that MGSV: THE PHANTOM PAIN and GROUND ZEROES will be available on Steam, release date yet to be disclosed. The event featured a surprise message from Kiefer Sutherland; the voice of ‘Snake’, announcing an exclusive gamescom pre-order deal. Fans who attended received vouchers offering a 5 EURO discount on the PlayStation®4 and Xbox One versions of MGSV:TPP. This pre-order deal is also available at the KONAMI booth (Hall 7.1) – so if you’re planning to visit gamescom, be sure to swing by! We’ll be announcing more pre-order deals over the next few months, stay tuned.

Yes, MGSV is coming to steam! Very nice.

Here's the latest demo. Tactical Horse Poop Action is awesome. Kojima is such a masterful troll.

Piracy will rule ! Lets see if it can dethrone Crysis games on torrents. I hope they don't bring it to PC on day 1.

 

[orangpelupa]

even if they bring them on PC day-1. The piracy will be like this

Xbox 360: Pirated 2 weeks before release
PS3: Pirated day-1
PC: Pirated a few days after release for bad or normal crack. Pirated 1 week (or months) after release for good crack (no save problem, can interchange save-file between pirated exe and legit steam save-file)

its almost always like that for PC games that protected by steam.

but with the name of "MGS", im sure it will be heavily pirated everywhere.
The online-play feature also give incentive to people to buy the game even if they pirate it.

EDIT:
it will be nice if Kojima add some joke for those who pirate it. Like what remedy has done for Alan Wake (pirate eyepatch).
Snake complaining his gadget not working due to using pirated gadget? then otacon telling snake (the player) to stop pirating lol.

Just watched it ! Awesome. Hope the AI is not too self learning, so much so that all my tactics go bust after some time ! Kojima is putting a lot under the hood, this is all news to me.

New look at motherbase infiltrations!

Now that there will be a PC version to play, Dose anyone think we'll see the foliage from the early build of MGSV when it was on PC; back again in the PC version?

I kind of would like to see the old shrubs back, they looked better in my opinion.

 

[L. Scofield]

Looked better without the stupid color grading.

 

[COPS N RAPPERS]

Yeah that was one of the few things i noticed when i saw the latest build. To say the least there will be a PC version. And if it's Ultra settings don't improve that; you can always try using SweetFX, or any other shader program to try and fix that, as a last resort.

My main concern though is the vegetation, It looks really simple. The old E3 shrubs and trees were more detailed and fuller.

Old Build

Latest Build

It would be a shame if they got rid of those assets, the Fox engine would have an opportunity to really shine on the PC platform.

 

[Nesh]

Is it possible that the trees look different due to LOD transitions?
Also the color grading isnt it possible that it is what it is due to different weather/daylight settings? Even shadows look like they have a different directions. What I liked in the first built are the tiny stones and rocky details that appear to be missing now

What I'm also questioning is, do we know from which build these latest screenshots are? PS4? Xbox One? At least in the above screenshot by COPS N RAPPERS, I think the 2014 looks slightly upscaled IMO. The 2013 image is definately sharper.

 

[RenegadeRocks]

MP reveal on Thrusday ! MGO is coming back !!!!!! Woot Woot !

The trees do have LOD transitions, but they do not project the original amount.

Maybe, only way to know for sure would be to compare at the same time of day.

Near Same Time

Original

New

Day cycle for MGSV E3 2014 version

It seems that they did go for a warmer chromatic filter instead.

The screenshots seem to be taken from footage. The E3 2013 screenshot comes from the Extended 2013 Trailer.
And the 2014 E3 screenshot is from Gamersyde's -
30 minutes of MGSV at 60 fps! (PS4)

Screens Both E3s
2013

2014

Yes you are right. Those COPS N RAPPERS 2014 pics are probably ~720p details level screenshots. Something is wrong on those pics as if strongly upscaled from sub-1080p.

I screengrabbed images from the my 6GB video that are definitely sharper (and confirmed 1080p native):

On this one you can notice the cheap heavy blur when he barely walks...

COPS N RAPPERS, you should check your settings when you screengrab stuff from your video player...Something is clearly not working as intended.

 

[COPS N RAPPERS]

The screen grabs were from gamersyde's media player, 6 gbs was too big for me to download at the moment. I also didn't know how much sharper it was, now that i see it looks much clearer. wish i could find a higher res version of the 2013 build. this is all i can find.

Either way, the vegetation and lighting changed. on a normal day (regular clouds) the new version looks warmer.

 

[Nesh]

I kinda like the older version more

 

[COPS N RAPPERS]

yeah, The E3 2013 version of MGSV looks more ultra violet blistering. It also looked like a truly next gen version of Red Dead Redemption's map.

Spoiler

The latest version of MGSV looks pretty hot with almost baron landscapes.

 

[RenegadeRocks]

Link?

I think its IGn or GameSpot, one of the two had an announcement. Gameplay footage will arrive on Thursday ! They just said MP.

 

[orangpelupa]

hmm the new hot and barren looks fit mire with afghanistan ... but i prefer the old look with more pop on colours.

ah getting this on pc, i can sweetfx it
