PGI, ya done right with the Mauler, be sure you keep it up with the upcoming mechs.

2K Res Standard, across all 6 files and all Camos.

[Lordred]

Unacceptable.

This needs to be fixed.

[TheSilken]

Fix please PGI. Stop slacking off and chugging maple syrup.

[Agent 0 Fortune]

How is this happening? Who is responsible for quality control? Where is the pride of workmanship?

[Lordred]

Still surprised by the backpedal from the Mauler, which looks so good.

[Throbbinwood]

The BK looks much better than most IS mechs to me.

Got myself into Orions.

Man the artwork looks terrible. Wasted the MC on the Sherman and the standard camo colors i use on the Atlas. Now the Atlas has a 'okay-ish' quality but:



Looks bad.

Hey everyone,

Lordred nudged me about this a couple days ago, and I did some asking around today to see where we might stand on this.
Texture normalization and a 4K pack release are not something that the art department has in production at the moment. Unfortunately, the resources and time available right now aren't going to provide us with the opportunity to work on this in the near future.

What's the point of releasing hideous 1K cammos that only a blind man would buy?
Make them at least 2K, like the Mauler!

Seriously, I paint most of my mechs flat black because the low quality textures hurt my eyes.

After reading this thread makes me think I should stup buying mech packs (even the Marauder) and cancel my preroders because of ******* piss poor lowres artwork we are treated with. Why is there such disparity between the chassis? Why is resistance version 2K while others 1K? I won't even mention higher quality used on hero mechs. I BET MY TIMBERWOLVES THAT THE TW HERO WILL HAVE 2K ON IT JUST TO SELL IT PRETTY.

"Guys we did something right!"

"Okay lets don't do it next time then!"

Please release a texture pack upgrade I have Gigs upon Gigs of space. It is sad to see a CryEngine game running around with textures like it is Wolfenstien 3D.

Only the Bucky Camo on the Orion is 2k btw.

YES PLEASE (my Graphics-Cards is a 12GB-Beast, read ahead pls)

But, as long as the everage Gamer has only 2GB of VRAM on his Graphicscards ... there are only few, who are interested in.
AND .. its Cry-Engine. You can see in Star Citizen, what will happen, if you have HUGE Textures.

It will stream the textures, and you will get nasty streaming-texture-popups.
Look at the pillar on the right side. All the details (I love details) on the pillar are only textures. But you can see every LOD-Level while loading it. UGLY



And you NEED lots of VRAM, espaccially in greater monitor-resolutions. Do you observe the "normal" vram-usage on your game NOW?

It fills 4GBs of vram in UHD. NOW. Without greater textures.
So maybe all of you, who are demanding greater resolution textures should check, if you card is able to process them without performance loss.


Maybe PGI have to release a High-Quality-Client for the guys who whant it all :-)

I still think it would be better if they brought every resolution in the game down to 1k and then made a download pack for a 2k or 4k high resolution texture pack, it would shrink the size of the game for the base install and allow hi end users good-looking mechs.

That'd be a decent solution.
But that would require... Effort and CONSISTENCY! *I shudder at the thought!*

Im playing the game at 2560x1440 on "only" a brutally overclocked 970. Let me check how much Vram my game uses

Edit:

Well, not even 2GB of my 4GB VRAM.




Edit2: Okay lets be fair, in a regular game its more.



still, could be more. And most of that is because of the high resolution I am playing in

I'm always up for better textures on this game, I think anything that improves apon how this game looks is a good thing. Just my .02 cents.

[Lordred]

Crab is using poor textures just like the Black Knight.
