oh man look at that depth of field. Pretty.

// edit, the little green location things are cool too. Very informative.

I will most likely be using red dots, but that does look pretty sweet.

t-ray, stop staring at the sun all the time! it will hurt your eyes!

Zulthus · 2012-04-28, 04:52 PM

He's wearing a visor! It's ok!

I don't think I could love a dev more. /brohug

That said, I still think the whole "iron sights" mechanic looks stupid/goofy/gamey. But st you're doing it with style.

If anything, adding iron sights makes it more realistic and tactical, not more "gamey." How would you aim a weapon without looking down the sights?

Seems that colored minimap is out...

Gandhi · 2012-04-28, 05:08 PM

I'm so glad they didn't just go with the standard can't-see-shit-captain iron sights.

SniperSteve · 2012-04-28, 05:10 PM

Yeah, Bags I noticed that too. What happened to our beloved real-color minimap

This is the future, we have better technology than just monochrome.. that was all like 1980's...

Also, that sun looks nice.

Saintlycow · 2012-04-28, 05:15 PM

hmm. The sun is way to bright.

Seriously.

Its almost as bad as BF3 sun

Not even close. BF3 sun completely blinds you. I can see easily.

Anyway, looks great! I love how good this game looks.

It's to remove that feeling about terrain, trees, people, vehicles and stuff like that from just appearing and disappearing at the clip plane. Some people like it for immersion, some people hate it for it's obscuring effect on enemy movements. To me, as long as it's a toggle and hasn't that big of an effect eitherway than it's fine.

What's more annoying to me is being able to turn all the visual settings down enough to maximize the clip plane distance. Just about anyone that takes this game seriously will be doing that. First Priority is View Distances, second is refresh rate, third is detail.
