Quantum Break [XO] (by Remedy) *large images*

It's definitely up there when it comes to complexity, real-time GI isn't easy (to get an idea you can read on this presentation by Q-Games: http://fumufumu.q-games.com/archives/Cascaded_Voxel_Cone_Tracing_final.pdf). My main gripe with the game is that it's very reliant on screen space techniques which break very easily.

 

Those artifacts are the result of a "time rift" effect (or whatever Remedy calls it). At least try to pay attention

As for this example:



There are no artifacts on the reflected light from the handles even when the camera changes position quickly. A pretty great example of SSGI.

 

While I cannot confirm all the GI or lack of GI going on, I can say LScofield is totally right about this one.

There is a definite rift effect happening in that scene.

 

There's one happening in this thread too.

 

Interesting theory but ghosting exists even when time is "okay"


Maybe it's just the time affected people!

Great example. The game offers up plenty new to gaming and presentation.

Ignore those playing biasisms and needing to knock something down for feels.

 

Hmm, i'm not so sure if it's actually SSGI anymore, example on another door:



Or maybe that's exactly because of their GI implementation, is this supposed to be light bouncing, reflection? The game looks flat out weird sometimes. The weird thing in this image specifically is that the door is actually reflecting the side that's not facing it (right side of Jack).

 

It's the nature of quantum breaking particles! Duh!!!

All games take some shortcuts here and there. That is probably a reflection mapping technique in conjunction with everything else going somewhat wonky.

 

For starters that door is under a completely different lighting setup. Secondly, the issue there is with the character reflection rather than any bounce lighting.

That comparison makes no sense.

 

I think some of the ghosting could be AA related since they are using so sort of temporal solution.

Early review copies, early embargo lift, more time for reviewers to review the game, W10 code nearing gold! This bodes very well for the game

I've thoroughly enjoyed past Remedy games and it's nice to see MS showing such trust for Quantum Break!

 

How come they show such high-res (and so many) shadow maps on this exemple, and actual footage has such horibly low-res shadows?

 

PC ver?

 

You're judging shadow quality from a twitch tv video? What bitrate is that, 3? Youtube not much better.

 

Thanks Ranges. Without your wise commentary, no-one here from beyond3d would remember to temper their analysis of footage to the fact its subject to compression artifacts...

My coment was mostly a joke, and it refered to the numerous cases where huge shadow texels were very discernible and flickered on-and-off even in controlled cutscenes and character close-ups ( which to some extent I believe is due to a bug ). The truth is, maybe, at least those cutscenes, just dind't get that final pass of refinement where shadow bounds are manualy ajusted shot-by-shot, and also, I know the exemple shown was probably for pc, and probably from a cutscene on an extremely constrained environment. Actual gameplay sections weren't so terrible, except for certain sections where the farther cascades of the sun were a bit too blotchy looking.

 

Soundtrack preview of QB on soundcloud:

Liking what I've listened so far, fast paced, electronic with lots of strings (kinda reminds me of Deus Ex: HR)

720p on X1 according to them, that could explain the soft look and the "outrageous" PC specs.

Noticed something very interesting in the latest DF footage, making a small gif to demonstrate it and uploading some pictures as well. The effect is this, and it's not related to any time power


That's it in motion


And it goes on until this point


Any guess as to what might that be?
