[PS3] Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One

[RenegadeRocks]

They have mantioned that they have implemented SSAO in All4One. Good news for our R3 anticipation. They don't particularly mention any other tech improvement though, just that the new camera position has facilitated some gfx improvements.

 

[Mr. Domino]

There's also some DOF which wasn't present ingame in the previous R&C's (or Resistance games) iirc.

PAX 2010 Panel !

Could they have picked a more unintelligible host at the panel?
English aint my native tongue, and every time this guy opens his mouth I barely understand a thing.. I only get this mental image of a bulldog barking while chewing on a big bone - rawwrknarrraawraww.

 

[RenegadeRocks]

Ha Ha Ha ! I just watched the gameplay part. Not interested in Ratchet Comics.

BTW, the gameplay isn't looking as promising as usual Ratchet games here.

Is it close to 60 fps?

I dunno whats Insomniac's statement for this game is , but after ACIT , they had announced that all of their future games will be at 30fps.

This is actually incorrect. DoF was used Resistance 2, it was just used sparingly, and when it was used for large areas, it wasn't a very pronounced effect, but it most certainly was there.

What they're doing with it in this title is considerably more pronounced, and I believe that is for visual effect (to make the world feel like a fantasy world).

Also, this game will be 30fps, which will give them more room for other things (like the DoF we've talked about).

Well that, and the fixed camera.

Here's some hot-off-the-press direct feed footage. Looks fantastic!

Is that confirmed?

They mentioned that in the PAX panel. New SSAO implementation and the fixed camera allowing more stuff on screen is all they mentioned tech wise.

 

[tha_con]

Is that confirmed?

Unless Insomniac engine has gone through a complete revamp, then yes. They've got self shadowing, DoF, SSAO, etc, which their engine couldn't handle in ACiT @ 60fps. That, and their recent comments regarding all future titles leads me to believe that, without a doubt, this is 30fps.

 

[Gitaroo]

anyone check the resolution? Theres a HD video up on PSN UK I think, game still seems sub HD.

ACIT had SS durning gameplay. Resolution will tell us more:

720p - 30 fps
<720p - most likely 45-60fps

 

[Billy Idol]

Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One
On the frame rate and resolution for the game:
“720p / 30fps is correct.”

“We actually did a test to compare what the game would look like at 60fps (with a bunch of the post-processing and effects turned off and/or toned down) vs. 30fps with all the effect cranked to 11. It was so hands down, not even a contest, not even CLOSE, like Nebraska whipping Western Kentucky 49-10: 30fps won hands down. We can just do so much more and make such a prettier game with all of the extra effects and bells and whistles.”

See You guy's should listen to me, I'm the resident Insomniac Games stalker, after all

 

[tuna]

OK, then no buy from me. Have fun without me Insomniac!

Really? Just because it's not 60fps? That's a little...extreme.

 

[Shifty Geezer]

You can't be playing many games this gen if you shun 30fps!
