They didn't edit the images, so what? It still looks like a cartoon, and even worse is the fact that those "explosions" look as if they were taken directly out of Renegade. They look like crap and you can easily see each individual particle in the emitter system.


Yeah, maybe it looks like crap because it's no where near being ready for a beta test. :rolleyes:


w00t?

It doesn't take that long to make a realistic looking explosion with emitters.

Graphics to me arent as important as gameplay. Thats why i still play FF7 from time to time, good game, horrible graphics and i also still play Ren, not exactly top of the line graphics there either.

I guess Petroglyph just doesn't have what it takes to impress. These are mearly a few 1st steps. If comparing art is your bag... then read some articles about Age of Empires III... they had a programmer dedicated to water alone... plus they have been working on the bloody thing for a few years... Petro has had about 1 year tops all the while the engine is always changing. Can't please everyone. Oh ya... 3 artist for most of that period.

Anyone heard that Primus song... "They Call Me Mr. Knowitall?"

Whip it out chief. Post it here. And don't use a slick package from a 3D program to fake it either. Make your own propriety system with your own textures, pal. I love people who how it all works and how it all should look.

Yes... I am defending a game that is barely out there and not polished. It's like having someone come up and judge your food before it's cooked.

ENOUGH. This topic is going nowhere, you guys are turning it into a bitch slapping contest (inluding you, Aircraftkiller). Moggio makes the greatest point out of all and that's where it's going to stand now. Starting from here, I don't want to see any annoying argument over what the game looks like, please.

We WERE having a nice conversation about Age of Empires 3... Where were we at again?
