i read the preview last night.  the only thing i didnt agree with, and i know its all opinion and based on perception, is that they dont think the final game reaches the video shown last year at E3.  IMHO i think it looks better then that early footage, except for the lack of an onscreen gun, and has more of a realistic edge to it.  again you will have people who favor the current look and those who want was shown at E3.  other then that a lot of good news was said in the article.  i swear i dont think i can read or see any more of this game, i need it now.

First off, I'm very much looking forward to this game and have been drooling at the screens. But I just find it amazing they don't have a gun on screen in 1st person. That is such a faux pas in the FPS genre, and it does take something away from the game, even if it is miniscule, when looking at the game as a whole.

PLEASE ENABLE VSYNC IN THIS!!!!

...so it doesn't look like a bad transmission like Perfect Dark and NFS MW.  The tearing is looking awful...when everything else is so incredible!  To me this is like putting $40 tires on a Ferrari.  Make THE WHOLE GAME next gen...not just the graphics, but the animation too.

Sorry for being ignorant, but what are you saying in layman's terms? Thanks

honestly, even though it was an issue for some while playing PDZ, i think i may have noticed it only once while playing through the single player, so hopefully it wont be an issue in GRAW.  while its nice to have, i dont think its so "black and white" as to have v-sync on or off, especially with the new hardware that developers are still coming to grips with.

Is this 'tearing' common on consoles? I just can't picture what this looks like. Is this something easily overlooked or not easily seen? I hope I'm not one of those people who can't see these imperfections, only cause I don't like to miss stuff.

its not hard to miss but it bothers people on different levels.  like i said before i only noticed it maybe once while playing through PDZ and that was a big issue with the game.

my question though is what kind performance hit, if any, does V-sync  create?  from what i understand, no v-sync allows the framerate to match the refresh rate of the monitor while a v-sync controls a set frame rate.  so if that is all there is to it, why dont devs just enable v-sync and allow a set framerate?  if its 60fps great, if its 30 then that is still great for an action/shooter game.  im sure im missing something out of all of this because the achieved frame rate cant be controlled just like that.  maybe i should search for and read over again M_heals explanation of frame rates and v-sync.

Yeah, I didnt really notice it in PDZ. I only saw it a few times in the first level after that it was I didnt notice any tearing. The thing is PDZ didnt have good graphics and GRAW has awesome graphics. Tearing wont look good on a realistic looking game rather then PDZ's shitty cartoon like graphics. It wont effect me that much but I know some people are really picky happy.gif
