I mean, it's been made with the new engine, right?
As the game becomes more and more optimized, i think we should get better graphics/effects now.
DayZ has been in development for so long now, that even the new graphics already starts to looks 'old'.
I mean, look at that screenshot:
Notice the reflections on the road?
It makes such a big difference. Right now, the only rain effects that we have, are the raindrops falling off the sky, and a more "greyish lights".
Wouldn't be nice nice to see some puddle forming, and even dirt turning into mud that sticks to your clothes??
Same for the interior lights.
Everyone knows that it's a problem rn, but again, if it's in the trailer, why is it not in the game yet?
The night is on point ,but just immagine how the gamplay would change if that lighting system would be in game!
So i don't know if it's some post-prod effects, or possible yet with enfusion, but please BI!!!! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Now let's talk about the design. Why do you show us a really good looking world, if it's not what the game looks like?
I know that it's a cinematic trailer, it's supposed to look great, but cmon...
Here's a comparaison from the trailer/game:
The game looks empty, blank. NOT like in the trailer, and NOT like a post-apocalyptic world would looks like.
Here's what i've done to the same street a few months ago:
Looks already more believable, right?
And it only took me a few minutes to do, and the result so much better in my opinion.
And most importantly now, the zombies.
If you look at the animations and the sound they make here: https://youtu.be/hUH2rrHtnFs?t=205
It's MILES away from what we have.
It's pretty much some TWD zombies, and not that "cartoonish" type of Z that we heve right now.
Again, i know it's a cinematic trailer, but if you don't plan to make the game close to what it looks like in the cinematic, don't make a trailer that is not what the game looks, or gonna look like.
DayZ has so much potential, so Bohemia, P L E A S E , don't waste time implementing stuff for trailers, that you're not gonna implement in the game!
There is so many ways to make Chernarus more believable and realistic, and i'm still hopping that we'll get the DayZ that we're all dreaming about.
And as much as i'm waiting for some new guns and survival aspect to be re-implemented, i think it's time to have some updates graphic/effect side to keep the game up to date.
Would be nice to have some informations about that in the next status report, even just some words telling us if it's planned or something.
