Which released game is currently graphics king?

Which released game is currently graphics king amongst PC, PS 4 and One warriors? :)

In terms of actual IQ, on console it would be Sniper Elite III as far as I can tell. On PC, the king position tends to get a nod to Star Citizen.

Modded Crysis,obviously.

And then there's that. I was taking the term 'released' pedantically.

the order, driveclub, infamous SS

Ok , you're just throwing bait , right?

Probably Witcher 3. The Order 1886 is up there too, but it's not allowed to shine because of that 30fps.

Crysis 3 and Battlefield 4 still hold up well when you up the resolution enough. I think Witcher 3 beats them though.

Ryse on the PC is also beautiful, but it's a weird mixed bag of graphics thanks to its development hell and being on the Xbox One.

@tushar172787: I don't know if it was just the free version, but driveclub totally underwhelmed in the graphics department...

Oh and the obvious answer is Crackdown 3 because of the cloud.... Not released yet you say? The cloud cares not about these things....

Witcher 3 and Crysis 3 probably.

Arma could be up there but running it at full settings with draw distance turned to max takes aloooooot of power

TW3 on pc
The Order on ps4
Lococycle on Xbone (beautiful game)

@Shewgenja: Sniper elite 3 looks terrible.

TW3. Great looking game on all platforms, but it shines on PC in terms of higher IQ and performance.

Technically? Witcher 3 on PC, I guess.

TW3 Ultra.

Look at how The Order is in actual gameplay shots, not Photo Mode:

Let the baiting begin

It began a while ago. lol

Fully expecting a meltdown....

@speedfreak48t5p: but it's a graphics thread, pics or gtfo

The Order, easily

Shovel Knight.

:I

=P

lol photomode,

Well looks like someone had to start the trolling in this thread.

@speedfreak48t5p: well done

Star Citizen. Is there really any other viable option?

Black Bar King

Probably Shiteclub

Crysis 3. Anybody saying TW3 is on drugs. The game looks alright but Unity shits on it. Unless you have a PC that can show off Crysis 3 on Ultra, then you've not seen it. And no, Youtube videos don't count.

@-God- and @Wasdie. Witcher 3 isn't anywhere near Crysis 3. Ryse also beats it but it's a linear corridor brawler. If Witcher 3 looked like the pre-release videos then it would have been it. The game doesn't look particularly great.

Also, funny you mention Ultra. It doesn't look significantly better than High or even Medium.

I'm saying Crysis 3

Black Bar King

The visuals in this game are incredibly overrated. 2016 needs to happen so we can stop talking about The Order 1886.

I actually think The Order 1886 look good but upon closer inspection, that terrible bloom hides many of its flaws. Why is there so much motion blur?

TW3 but I have not played Crysis 3 on ultra yet, I want to though.

Captain Toad. Or Dead or Alive 5 Last Round.

Oh man Captain Toad looks amazing, immensely clean and clear looking.

yes and no, all of those look great (albeit compromising heavily on gameplay)

I wanted to get that game but no option to turn off gyro killed it for me, not the mine cart stuff just the camera. Visually it does look amazing.

that does not look like the best representation of that game

I'd say TW3. It's just such a nice looking world they built.

Technically it's between Crysis 3, Unity and Witcher 3. The Order 1886 beats them in some areas but not in every area. Mostly they are superior in terms of tech. 1886 hides its shortcomings by using cheap techniques.

god damn that Infamous shot looks bad rofl

@freedomfreak: I hope you don't mean the console version...

Ass Creed Unity and Crysis 3. The Witcher 3 comes close but its vegetation holds it back.

Do you mean it looks bad or do you mean it just doesn't show enough to be proof?

B/c I didn't use this shot as a proof shot. I just think this is the best looking game given it's open world and I just chose a pic that I took in game.

cheap techniques? its about how the game looks...they should be commended for getting the absolute most out of the hardware

driveclub with weather effects is king though

TW3 on PC.

Driveclub.

Crysis 3.

Metro Redux.

Order 1886 uses fog, black bars and blur to hide its low res textures and flat objects. Games with high quality assets are proud of their technology and show as much as possible, not hide them. And no Drive Club is not King. It's a racing game with great weather effects but that's it. It isn't doing anything that is not done in other games, tech wise. Games like Unity give you amazing visuals by using newer rendering techniques in open world full of NPCs, great character models/animations, textures, LOD and so on along with other PC specific features such as Tesselation, TXAA etc. When we compare graphics, we take everything into account, not just aesthetics or few cars on screen.

Lol, yeah. Draw distance is terrible. Textures on buildings look so bad. But I think someone was impressed because of orange colors covering the entire screen.
