As nice as it is to see a patch in the make addressing gameplay, the game looks so terrible that I won't even be getting to the gameplay.

I want AA, a res higher then 1024 and vsync and to be able to get rid of that blurryness.

Asking for a lot, in this day and age I don't think so.

Yes the menu resolution does and that's it, the game graphics themselves get worser the higher res you go, I run 1920x1200 and it looks more jaggy at that res then at 1024, the graphics just seem to inflate like zooming in on a photograph and it gets more pixelated.

Looks so horrible that I can't even be bothered playing.

What is really sad and shortsighted: people reviewing this for the major magazines (and some outlets, like Gamespot) will be required to review the "out of the box" version. So, for example, my review for Games for Windows (previously known as Computer Gaming World) will have to be of the 1.0 version, with all of the issues that come with that version. If they were able to patch this thing within a week, they would have been SO much better off holding off for a week and releasing the updated version. The reviews/review scores would surely be a lot better. Ugh.

Yeah thanks that works, got pointed to that tip elsewhere as well. Why it's not a menu option doesn't make sense.

Now only AA and proper high res are left, Considering that SH3 could at least do higher res via some hack it's beyond me why SH4 can't out of the box.
Until then no SH4 for me, and nope not after Oblivion quality graphics here, just graphics that are at least the going standard for games nowadays.

Patch should be live tomorrow, with two distinct patches.
A 154 meg german language patch, to change the voices from english to german for all the deutchlanders out there, and a 117 meg patch to actually fix the game up to 1.1

I hope miles means nautical miles...there is a difference and it aids in time, distance, speed calcualtions considering we use knots for speed, not mph.

Kapitan_Phillips · 03-22-07, 03:38 AM

My god this Dev team kicks ass. I havent even got the game yet on pre-order and there's almost a patch :rotfl:

Seriff Al · 03-22-07, 07:45 AM

Just downloading the patch and wondering...

Can someone please explain to me UBI´s policiy? I mean let´s have a look at the facts:

-SH4 goes gold

-Beta Testers had had time enough to comment on the game

-the game is released, most people immediately complain about lacking sounds, bad interface etc.

-12-24 hours after the official (European) release date a 160Mb patch (!) PLUS a 150Mb German speech patch are released

Now it´s pretty obvious the patch had been developed some time BEFORE. What I conclude from this is that the game was released ALTHOUGH not all the programming was included. My simple question is: WHY the hell couldn´t they have waited just one day (or one week) in order to get the already patched file on DVD and into the box?

This is not meant to be a rhetorical question, I really don´t understand why a publisher would do this. I mean, they wouldn´t have sold LESS copies just because people had to wait ONE DAY LONGER...

So what´s that all about???

I´m waiting for the day when a patch is released two weeks before the actual game comes out :rotfl:

I think that it takes a long time to print and produce thousands of DVD copys.
My guess is that it was ready at least a month ago!
During that time they have worked on the patch....
