Thanks Panzer.

This game looks totally amazing.

Is that an arrow up close in the last screenie, or a yari? An Arrow right? Awesome.

**panzerschreck** · March 04, 2011, 01:25 PM

yes, an arrow

**KaJ23** · March 04, 2011, 01:28 PM

That dude in the golden armor might be a hero?

Is it just me, or are some of those edges really jagged?

Nope, to me it looks like no AA is enabled...My guess is that it might still be the demo version (edit: demo engine I mean) as those models look exactly the same as the demo build which uses shader model 3.0, the full game will have 5.0 so there should be some difference if these shots were taken on the full game

It's you, because that's kind of subjective.

Personally, I don;t think they're that bad, better than the demo. Definitely some AA going on there.

I had to agree I was disappointed in the screenshots, they were not of the quality of others. I looked past them thinking demo myself too

Yep. Jaggies 'r us.
But considering how good NTW can look (with AA), i'm just gonna hope that S2 wont be any different, at least with dx10/11. *crosses fingers*

Compare these screenies to the other ones posted,

I really think these screenies have some AA in them. On some things the jaggies are noticable, but the spears don't look completely gnarled anymore.

I don't think you'd notice this level of aliasing much when you're playing. I for one would be very pleased if I can get the game to look like that with good FPS, and I have a pretty decent PC.

Will you stop shilling for ca? This is the third post in this topic from you about this. They still look pretty rough on weapons; there are lots of jaggies.

And wonderful pics, especially the first and the golden armour none.

Also cant believe it didn't occur to me earlier than the Hojo clan sign is a triforce. Those other clans are doomed!

I'm not shilling for CA. I may be repetitive, but that's a whole other issue. Stop seeking confrontation with ungrounded, childish and backhanded insults.

wow... so cool! It's not long time when it come!

**Totalheadache** · March 04, 2011, 03:24 PM

Nice pics. I think there are 2 many units flags..dunno but maybe they could have reduced the metallic effect/glint as well.

Less flags/standards means more fps and I dont think that many are required (if you think how many there will be with large armies...i dont know the resources could have been better used in perhaps unit/terrain detaiL)...i'll see what i think come release mind u.

I love watching the fights up close on this game, the animation is amazing, they've gone into a lot of detail in the fights. Sword skills and martial arts, you see them spinning, kicking etc, very good to watch
