    The thing is EQN could look like that.

    Yeah, thought so.

    Amerish is pretty though.

    It's a possibility that the OP saw a dev respond to a tweet asking whether or not EQN will look similar to those screenshots......

    [mod edit]

    Waterlily is pretty awesome, actually.

    So they're using art from Planetside 2

    Pretty sure that's Amerish in PS2, I couldn't find the exact location (was shot down >_>) but the first picture has what looks to be a PS2 building on the left side. I basically just flew around all of Amerish and found many spots that look very similar to this one so I imagine this is probably near an enemy warpgate...Possibly the Terran Republic.

    Gods willing the game looks similar to that (now confirmed to be PS2) screenshot... because that just looked like it was hitting the sweet spot in graphical fidelity.

    It doesn't look cartoony and it's more on the side of realism than stylized. It looks like planetside 2.

    Personally I don't think it's great but it's certainly not bad and given that it looks more like a screenshot than a blatant attempt to inspire awe than I can cut it some slack.

    Then leave. This isn't a forum for bashing.

    What do we know of the Commonlands?

    We know the basis for the name. It was the area that all travelers had to venture through in order to get to and from various cities and adventuring areas.

    It was separated into east and west this had player trade hubs set in a tunnel. PvP was in full force on the PvP teams servers in these areas.

    Also this was filled with small huts and a lake or two. Maybe a dungeon as well. Mountains and paths. Plenty of trees here and there. Roaming Hill Giants and even an occasional guard patrol.

    Plenty of npc's of various alignments and always something interesting happening in the early days.

    This pic mainly demonstrates the power of the new engine and that is good enough for me. Planetside 2 may be good but EQN will be the real prize.

    Exactly.  It is not realistic per se, that would be a hardware killer unless you want to chop the world up into little pieces like SWTOR. 

     

     

    Why isn't it realistic?

    Because the trees have a different shape?

    I think EQ Next will have stylized graphics for the inhabitants but those "screenshots" are reminiscent of something of a hybrid of very real trees.

    Looks nice, although I kinda miss the EQ2 desert / sahara style for the Commonlands.

    Let me ask you something: maybe you can answer it:

    EQN art = EQN 'how it looks ingame'?

     

    Y/N?

    Or it might have been an honest mistake...

    I mean, I don't know. Personally, I don't care how many polygons it has or whatever, the colors seem very nice and vibrant and that's always a nice sight for me, I hate all those games that look like a monkey threw poo at them...

  • AeliousAelious Member RarePosts: 3,521
    Just for clarification, when I said it wasn't art I meant it wasn't a painting but a sreen shot. I'd love it if EQN looks like PS2. In fact when I'm playing PS2 I often think about what it would be like to play EQ in the same setting.

    What are you talking about?

    Who is bashing and what are they bashing?

     

    BTW If anyone should leave it should be you. If you cannot handle people having different opinions and try to run them out because of it, than prehaps it isn't the place for you.

    I hope those are real, because im totally satisfied with that style/realism balance.
  • IadienIadien Member UncommonPosts: 638
    evilastro... you could edit the first post and title to reflect that they are Planetside 2 Amerish screenshots...
  • EntinerintEntinerint Member UncommonPosts: 868
    Definitely the forgelight engine, looks right outta Planetside 2.  This is a good thing.
