jehurey 3,227 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 I like how he doesn't have a really answer, so he's trying his best to find bad screenshots. ..............that still manage to show off more terrain than Gears. Love how there's always two hills in a Gears 5 open area that you have to navigate around to see what's behind it. Nice job of them having to hide the limitations in streaming, because the game is inherently gimped by having to have parity with the base Xbox One console. That same base hardware parity probably explains crowbcat's video, as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I love how a game like Forza Horizon 4 completely SHITS on your premise... 4K 30fps native on X1X Full day and night cycle Full 4 season cycle And yet the game still has micro detail that is unparalleled Deformable snow trees, fences, signs, ect ect all destructible... So no... Xbox One hardware isn't holding open world games back. Sorry bud. You'll lose that argument every time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmaltese★ 2,550 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Comparison should be to Lost Legacy since that is the latest ND game and all those still shots don't address everything else I mentioned about the scope of both open worlds. I've mentioned just how lacking Gears 5 open world is in actual implementation. It's just an empty bland map with doors in it's corners, while Lost Legacy's (and even UCIV's) have actual levels and enemies and quests built into the open world. Not to mention the interaction with the car and the environment (mud, water, etc) and the actual cinematic moments that happen seemlessly in the open world (like the car about to fall off the cliff, etc). Gears has absolutely none of that. It's Ice map is mostly flat and none of it's level design is layered (going up a hill isn't level design) and the second one is like a race track where you need to go up specific ramps to cross bridges to reach higher ground, unlike lost legacy which is an open world in a forest with multiple routes in and out of every location, all intertwining and actually explorable. Gears is literally bouncing you from corner to corner. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

madmaltese★ 2,550 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 That is the open world map and it being actually used in gameplay. Every major building explorable with cinematic moments all seemlessly done into the world, then maps filled with side quests, hidden items, all found in hidden caves, tunnels and locations. All areas of the map accesible from multiple routes. Extremely vertical. Your character and truck interacting with all the foilage, water, mud, etc. There is literally none of that in Gears open maps. None. Locations are blocked by tiny entrances that trigger an arena mode of enemies finished with opening a safe for an upgrade. Then literally 1 side mission in each that pings you to 3 boring locations to fight enemies to get another upgrade. No exploration, nothing interesting in it's map, not interactivity. All the enemies are triggered by walking through the little opening or after you enter. None are present in the actual open world (Like even UCIV has). Could go on and on really. But yes, Gears 5 in 2019 looks better in a still shot than a 2017 and 2016 game Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I agree @Remij_ about fh4’s technical brilliance. I’m more impressed with it than any other msoft title. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,227 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Looks like an area you'd see in Outer Worlds. So, is there a narrative explanation for them having areas with some jungle foilage and these retro looking areas? Were these remnants of the "old world" before the war started?

That's not at all what I do, I dispute their opinions and personal thoughts, their reflections extrapolated on from the data found; not the data itself. Case in point when a Switch game analysis is anything but impressive yet they call it impressive because "it's a handheld". Whatever it is objectively looks like shit relative to every other platform around it running the same game. That's not impressive, that's making exceptions for a platform and removing objectivity.

There is no "data" that Gears 5 is the "best looking game on Xbox One" That statement is, by definition, a subjective opinion. And you don't dispute that, in fact you accepted it giddily. Gouko is right, you are just a simple hypocrite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
