New screens?

[-Klaus-]

I stumbled upon some screens I've never seen before. Nothing particularly amazing.

these could be really old and I didn't notice... but they looked interesting to me.

Anyways... Linkage to the source.

Wow, very nice find, i think there is like 5 - 7 screens i have never seen although i follow everything of this game since more than 2 years now.

There are also screens that we have seen on the official website or on scans but that are in a large size here.

If im not mistaken, that first picture looks like the camera is following his PM.

[Saner]

there is no HUD so those may be special CAMERA tricks/configurations they used for some like the first pic.

[Zinsian]

Well if im not mistaken, that first picture looks like he's floating!! its either ST just got lazy or that shadow is eerily slow...(dam programmers)

[tank1]

Or maybe good old SuperEthan is related to David Blaine?

[Rubesahl]

The game only has circled shadows right? I'm kinda let down on that since PSO had more realistic shadows :/ Well PSU makes up for that in almost every other way so I really don't mind too much. They could've had the option for the PC version though >_<;

[Saner]

ugh. more criticisms on the shadows. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif

the last thing people notice while playing (if ever) is shadows. I don't mind circle shadows. they are not distracting, so that's the important thing. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

I think the shadows are fine... they actually look like they have more contrast and stuff.

[Saner]

ya. at least they have shadows to begin with http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

What Zinsian means is that, if you look closely at the shadows, Ethan appears to actually be slightly ahead of his shadow, creating the illusion that he's floating. The shadows themselves I'm not worried about; I don't doubt that there's an option for more realistic shadows (there has been in almost all recent 3D games).

Didn't you know Ethan is a magician.lol http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/pepsi.gif

As long as you cant see the outline of the shadows, it's good.

I remember back on V1, being able to see the 4 squares the FOnewearl would sit on. God that was distracting after awhile.

[Saner]

floating?? only one pic shows him 'floating' but I think that's just the hill or adjustment in terrain shape that may cause a model's feet to lift a few inches to adjust.

heck its better than their feet sinking into the ground. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

[MAGNUShunter]

Well, I heard he was "Super Ethat" after all.
Maybe they give you the option to turn of the GUI as in other mmo's, so as to take screenshots (XI did it with ps2 anyway)

And what? Only circle shadows?
Don't get me started...

[Saner]

PSO had circle shadows and no one complains about that. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

the next dumb thing people will complain about is the physics
"why can't I chop them in half? where is ragdoll? where are teh physics?"

[AvianKaitos]

What are these from PC, or PS2?

...Back in DC v1/2.

[Saner]

well anyways shadows are just shadows.

it was sickening for like over a year and 3 months, people were complaining about the shadow limitations in Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion before and after it came out. but even without many shadow stuff, it still looked great, even the objects that had no shadows AT ALL. Graphically PSU looks beautiful in the way it's presented and all.

the shadow debate is a deadend anyways. if realistic shadows is such a crucial element to this game to those people, they might as well play something else.

at this point I can't think about dumber things to complain about than shadows, but then again people come up with all sorts of pointless rants anyway. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

[PJ]

Just like how arguing shadows are useless? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Frankly, regardless of wether or not it's a big thing, it will be complained about

I'm just curious why the shadow circles are only noticed now, I never noticed them... time to check out a PSU beat video, I think I wouldave noticed if they were circle shadows thereoO

EDIT: Aaaand they do indeed XD Geeze, can't believe I didn't notice

[shadow4]

PSO had shadows? I guess Saner was right about that being the last thing people notice...

[-Klaus-]

..I honestly think people are too damn nitpicky...

Who cares about the shadows! Honestly! The shadows won't do you jack when you're fighting a huge enemy! People act like it's the apocolypse... "CIRCLE SHADOWZ! ONOES!!!"


Give me a break. - -;

[Tystys]

Oh wow, I wanta see the humanoid PM in action....I hope it owns, O_O

[Zinsian]

HEY!!!! I NEVER BEGAN TO COMPLAIN about shadow detail any way...i just said Ethan looked like he's floating LMAO !!!

[-Klaus-]

No, I'm just saying people complain in general. Not directed at you, Zinsian. :]
