Thread 725355602

Why does TECHNOLOGY in vidya enrage Zoomers so badly?

There is that one mission with the hot air balloon that has flying and this tech comes into play so DEBUNKED.

Next asinine crying about RDR2 please.

Because they're wasting time working on pointless details instead of making the game fun

>>725355667
IT'S NOT FUCKING POINTLESS YOU FUCKING JEW INDIAN NIGGER CAN'T YOU READ???????M? I LITERALLY FUICKING DEBUINKED IT IN 1 POST BEFORE YOURS AND OYU CAN'T FUCKINGREAD? ?? RETARD%!%!ERUJZHTRTBGHZJU ESUJWHIZKN

>>725355667
>Volumetric clouds = 50 missions cut

Do Zoomers actually believe this shit?

>>725355602 (OP)
>bro we need the insides of clouds you see once to be rendered at all times... BECAUSE WE JUST DO OKAY
nah

>>725355667
>pointless details
oh so it's pointless details when its a game you don't like, but when its a game you do like it's "soul" because the devs went out of their way to add details they did not have to add.

>>725355773
OH NOW WE GOALPOAST MOVING FROM NO FLYING TO SEE ONLY ONCE I SEE WHAT YOU ARE DOING THERE RETARDED NIGGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>725355667
The guy making the game fun isn't the one making the clouds. AAA is extremely specialized.

>>725355602 (OP)
Game should have tech good enough to deceive you into suspense of disbelief. There is no point in developing beyond that. People love to clown about Bethesda's train head, but it's perfect example how it should be done. There is no need to develop fully working train sub system on engine level if you can make a simple workaround with exactly the same end result. I call that being creative and having a talent.

>>725355790
>they did not have to add.
They have to do it. Every developer has to do it. Most don't and still manage to get away with it, but it isn't right. For example, if I look down in an FPS game and I can't see my character's legs, I uninstall and refund immediately.

>>725355667
GTA 5 was utter dogshit. All zoomers want a game with 0 fun just like it

Only millennials and gen X nerds give a fuck about graphics. Zoomers and especially gen alpha kids are more than content with production values of mobile games and Roblox.
Also kids these days value playing games on their phones and tablets over having to buy consoles and expensive PCs.

>>725355808
when did I say no flying

Clouds look nice but the gameplay is dogshit. Give me a game that instantly responds by flipping your model instantly with a shitty animation over this. The older I get the less patience I have for non-arcadey stuff.

>>725355790
What is the significance of testicles shrinkage inside of a video game.

>>725355667
>The guys doing environmental assets/systems are the same as the ones designing missions
Americans are so fucking stupid holy shit

The Horseballs seethe thing is also stupid
That literally probably took a day at most to implement (as a joke) and is just tying it to the existing temperature systems in the game and having the model scale to match

>>725355662
he mentions it but the tweet is cut off lol

>>725355841
I call it being a soulless hack job. Your game being held together by glues and gypsy hackjobs like this is what results in the typical bethesda janky trash games that the public tolerated up until Fallout 76 probably because they saw that other developers do it properly so it in fact doesn't have to be this way. Terrible example.

>>725355602 (OP)
Cockstar fags are anti fun and anti video game

>>725355828


>The guys making the clouds wasn't the guy making the mission
They're all taking cuts from the same budget - maybe you could keep the guy who makes more missions on for longer if the guy making the clouds wasn't there
>They keep both
Most Devs work on single game contracts and are booted at the end of a project

>>725355773
Its probably for future work for gta vi and other games. It makes sense to start working on features amd see how they work when the stakes are lower for that aspect of the game.

>>725355876
in the op, retard

>>725355667
This is a feature on engine level. Something like this was worked by engineers completly separate from people who design the game or make assets/actual game content.

>'tendie profile pic
>seething over a playstation exclusive
many such cases

>>725355963
Except Rockstar has the biggest budget that's ever been allocated to a game by quite a bit.

>>725355667
Good point.
RDR2 while impressive had shit tier core mission design.
I still have not finished that turd.
It's literally highly polished dogshit.

>>725355963
GTA has a giga huge budget. If they wanted more designers they'd hire more designers. If they want to get a dedicated cloud guy they can do that too. It supposedly costs over 500 million to make.

>>725355930
Well that's just even worse, he debunked himself lol. Even he admits there is flying.

>>725355828
It still doesn't exist in a vacuum.

>>725355942
It's a perfect example. The sole fact you can't see it, means you are talentless idiot, probably brown. As I said, there is absolutely no difference in the end result between train head workaround and actual developed train system. One takes a smart brain and zero resources. Another takes resources, time and dev attention.

>>725356016
so I didn't say it, I accept your concession

>>725355996
Then why the product cost and time keeps increasing?

>>725355963
>They're all taking cuts from the same budget
>Budget
>For a Rockstar game

Not only are the budgets fucking massive but the games take fucking ages to make and the engines will be used for other series
Adding clouds to the engine isn't going to magically make the game worse only complete fucking retards will unironically make that argument

>>725356070
it kind of does. The bigger a project gets the more segmented it gets. Conversely if you work at a small studio you have to do more roles.

>>725356061
Cloud simulation still takes resources from the process as a whole. Imagine a sandwhich shop, where every filling is covered by their own team. You could technically have hundreds of high quality fillings in one sandwhich, but they will still end up falling out the bread in the end.

>>725356082
Except you're fucking retarded if you can't see that the end result is a janky buggy mess game exactly because it's held together by glue and ductape by shortcuts like this.

>>725356084
huh, you're one of the "special" ones, I see

>>725355907
>The guys doing environmental assets/systems are the same as the ones designing missions
What are you, retarded? It's not like they exist in a vacuum. The amount of dosh that goes into paying for extensive yet needless environmental assets and systems could have instead gone towards shoring up the people that design the missions. Not to mention this work still requires a decent bit of QA and performance impacting, which could have gone to other aspects of the game instead. Most of all, if they're gonna put in this much effort, then DO IT FOR SOMETHING THAT ACTUALLY IMPACTS THE GAME

>>725356058
Retard

>>725355930
yeah synth potato typical rage baiter for engagement

>>725356165
that (should be) sorted out in the optimization pass. Make the clouds lods when you aren't next to them. There are plenty of ways to handle volumetric clouds that don't tank the framerate and if there aren't then rockstar can just make it a setting in the options menu. If they care about framerate that is.

>>725356173
I'm talking about train head. The end result is the same as a train system, it's not related to any bugs. Try to use your brain, brown.

>>725355754
>>725355828
Why do you midwits keep regurgitating this dumbass argument that can be refuted if you think about it for more than two seconds?

>>725356092
They want more shit and theyre having to build an entirely new multiplayer system. Gta 5 wasnt made to be a real one, they half assed one and realized how much money it rakes in. There won't be another gta minimum 15 years. They want online to be active that entire time.

>>725356231
Immersion impacts the game tranny
A major part of the game is traveling around on your horse
Sorry not everyone wants to play some UE5 "analog horror" asset flip

You lost

>>725356326
refute it then. You haven't yet.

gameplay > graphics
all succesfull game this year have been indieslop that looked like dogshit but has a fun loop

>>725356326
How is it an argument?
They already have a hordes of Rockstar divisions working on shit
How would firing the enivromental artists/programers from working on I dunno the fucking environment make the game better then if they added 5 more mission devs to the pool of hundreds they already have make the game better?

>>725355602 (OP)
it's a fact that games were better when they weren't being made by 500 people mega-studios and taking 7 years to make

>>725356416
E33 will win GOTY and its because of the graphics.

>>725356480
and because gaming 'journalism' are nothing more than pay for play industry plants.

>>725356638
Cope.

>>725356828
Cuck.

Red Dead 2 wasn't fun, it was tedious to play. Felt like a chore.

>>725356356
>MUH IMMERSION

I'm 32 and this shit is pointless. More was achieved using pre-rendered backgrounds. Shrinking horse balls added nothing to the game either. Who cares?

>>725357360
well the argument works better with a game that isn't one of the best selling of all time

>>725357396
RE6 is one of Capcom's best selling titles and yet I'm one of the ten people who actually likes it, sales are meaningless.

>>725356058
It is sad that what could be a very impressive engine is wasted on failed hollywood writers who want to make a moviegame instead of a video game.

>>725355602 (OP)
Because TECHNOLOGY is the only thing rockstar games have going for them. Actually playing them is a chore.

>>725357235
Is this meant to be an own? Who doesn't want a more immersive game?

>>725355602 (OP)
I give rockstar a pass since their games don't run like shit. This would be 20fps on UE5.

>>725355754
Retards don't understand what procedural 3d noise is.
They think someone has manually "modeled" these volumes.

>>725355602 (OP)
There's two modern(ish) games that have wowed me with their technology. BotW and RDR2. No other game even fucking tries.

>>725358236
What about the few games that actually use binaural audio well?

>>725355602 (OP)
This zoomer is dumb because the volumetric clouds in RDR2 affect the ground since light passes through them, they cast shadows, and you can move through them.
They also just hire 1 cloud to do clouds and he does them in some amount of time, they can afford to do that.

>>725358367
Such as?
Also for your info, I'm almost deaf in my right ear so it would be hard for me to tell if a game has good audio.

>>725355602 (OP)
that'll be $2000 for a 5090 to enjoy looking at 10% prettier clouds and not playing the actual game
gay fucking retard

>>725358420
A bunch but the most well known ones are Hellblade that uses it to simulate auditory hallucinations and Hunt Showdown where it's basically the most important element in the game because it lets you pinpoint where people are, what guns they're using, what position they have and how far away they are. Should have been the gold standard already.

>>725355602 (OP)
>enraged at technology
It's more that it's incredibly wasteful to use resources for that without bothering to make actual gameplay that takes advantage of it. I haven't played RDR2 yet but I get the impression that it's limited in gameplay, very slow, and a borderline movie game.

The ~technology~ is the best part of rockstar games. Their gameplay is atrocious especially gtaV and rdr2 where the scripted missions are so touchy that even 1 wrong step gets you a game over.

I hope they loosen the grip a little and let you attack missions more openly in 6. But I highly doubt it. I'm only looking forward to fucking around doing Ben buja style shit in a new map.

>>725355602 (OP)
Uh they are right though, this is worthless bloat which eats up dev time and system resources for no gain.

>>725355602 (OP)
Grok, is this real?

>>725355667
AAA development is such a joke, it's all garbage like this instead of actually shipping a videogame

>>725355705
Then you do it in a scripted segment for that one mission in a manner that is cheaper to implement and not across the entire game. So it's still time and money wasted for a detail that's merely "neat". It'd be excusable if flying was a much bigger part of the game.

>>725357235
Is attitude this why most games are shit now and feel so artificial? Immersion is important to a lot of genres.

>>725359080
It's not just AAA tho. All designers, and that goes for everyone working at a studio, love nothing more than to tinker and iterate. And it's the job of producers to keep that shit down and people focused. But in reality you have producers who themselves don't have a clear vision and/or just can't agree on a direction for the project. That's how you end up with games that sit for 5, 6, 7 years in pre-production being rebooted twice and release in a broken and unfinished state.

In the 2010s, thanks to annual franchises, the whole concept of an iterative sequel got such a bad rep that devs rather spend 10 years trying to reinvent the wheel instead of taking a formula that works, make a couple tweaks and release the game. Now you have designers who have been working at studios for over a decade and never shipped a game. They have been promoted a couple times, earned the 'senior' title, worked on a dozen games, are earning well over 100k and on their CV, under 'shipped games', there is a 0 with a long list of 'cancelled and unreleased projects that i am still under NDA'.

>>725355963
If the game director wanted more filler missions, they would have prioritized that.
There's no either-or here.

>>725355602 (OP)
Zoomers have adhd and hate waiting, they just want yearly slop like call of duty and asscreed to be shoveled into their mouth

>>725359768
>Zoomers have adhd and hate waiting
My steam account is probably older than you and i hate waiting too. I don't mind giving a studio 3, 4, 5 years to make a game but i have a real issue with games that get announced way too early, sit in development for a decade or more, leave everyone wondering if it's ever going to come out and when it does it's another soft-reboot abandoning everything that made the last game good.

Zoomers grew up with the worst games and saw budgets and dev time spiral to hundreds of millions and five+ years. This leads to GRAFFIX and appealing to wider audiences.

>>725355602 (OP)
Because they only want to pay for skins and show them to their friends who will then either be impressed or belittle them for getting the wrong ones

I don't mind waiting for SOME games

>>725356058
the story is best enjoyed as a youtube game movie
the game is best enjoyed when doing random shit outside of missions

>>725355963
When that "same budget" is 400+M, then yeah, I think they can spare to add more detail to the game world.

>>725359768
They came up with the 360/PS3 era where new games came out pretty frequently and weren't all the same. To go further, think back to the 80s and 90s, how much new stuff came out, how frequently new stuff came out and how much innovation and progress there was. We're talking yearly increases in graphics, rendering, TECHNOLOGY, mechanics, genres. That is long dead yet barely anything comes out now. I can forgive the zoomers for being impatient, especially when they play old games or easy to run games that provide plenty of entertainment. We're all pissed at the state of the industry.

>>725355602 (OP)
Because they don't actually use that TECHNOLOGY to make the game more fun, they're just there to be pretty

>>725355602 (OP)
too busy adding a bunch of veins to Jason BWC

>>725355602 (OP)
idk but Crysis did it almost 20 years ago and if it's still considered TECHNOLOGY instead of basic shit then we made some real mistakes along the way by letting industry devolve into drooling retards, trannoids and pajeets.

>>725355773
> BECAUSE WE JUST DO OKAY
Yes?
The tech to render nice cloud handle the inside and outside by default.
It would actually require additional work to make it unable to render the inside.

>>725360629
It's kinda lame how so few games do clouds like that. RDR2's are the best ever made by far and everything else between it and Crysis was mostly lame.
BOTWs were good too though.

it's called progress CHUD now give me $500 trillion and shut the fuck up

I'll be impressed when smoke actually gets displaced by movements in real time.

>>725360779
I hate scam altman like you wouldn't believe but this is nothing but a good take. What the hell is wrong with you? Why do you care what they're burning their money on especially if it'll benefit everyone?

>>725355602 (OP)
I'd rather Arthur not take so fucking long to loot someone for muh realism. Hell the Red Dead Online fixed that, it's a short snappy animation of the character reaching down and grabbing something quickly over Arthur needing to pat everyone down.

What good will come from AGI?

>>725355705
If the hot air balloons were something you could use regularly it would be one thing. But they aren't.

>>725360704
It isn't even that complicated because if you design a game where you're on the ground and you don't have skyscrapers reaching into clouds you can ignore all light sources except for sun.
The sky shader could just measure the thickness of the cloud volume and the sun position to render the clouds, which don't have to even be simulated in realtime because you can have pre-generated cloud volume simulations that just roll through the sky.

>>725356163
if there was nobody to work on the gameplay mechanics they wouldn't have someone on cloud duty my guy

It's a scam. Consciousness is not matrix multiplication.
The scam means that funds and resources are diverted from other things that could actually improve our living conditions.
The funds being diverted from other things includes payroll (and jobs), which materially make people's lives worse.
The scam also involves these companies begging for government guarantees, subsidies, and bailouts which are paid for with your tax dollars (and are redirected from other priorities, as above)
When the bubble pops, it is going to be a disaster for the economy and worse than the dot-com bubble.
There is no reason to believe that if AGI were actually created, it would be used to help the common man and not the few oligarchs who control it.

>>725355602 (OP)
There's a team of technical artists in Rockstar who are making this kind of stuff. This is literally their full time job to program all these graphical features to give creative freedom for the artists working on the game. It wasn't made exclusively for RDR2. It's just part of RAGE.

>>725355754
Seeing how Rockstar does missions, yes easily 50 maybe 200

volumetric clouds aren't even hard to implement. it takes no time to do so if you know how to program and implement bounded volumes. making the game fun would still take the same amount of time it's negligible to talk about whether or not time was wasted on clouds lol.

Back in my day games took 2-3 years to make, max. Sequels were done in a year or less usually.

When will moutbreathing indian retards like you understand MONEY != GOOD
Just because someone spent a billion zillion dollars on a turd does not mean that turd is now a piece of gold to be celebrated, unless you're indian, then all turds are celebrated. AAA blowing money that makes movies look like kiddie productions are retarded and the main reason why gaming is dying. All the classics on PS2 were made on budgets not even 1% of modern budgets, yet those games are 100x more fun than modern movieturds that companies like Sony and Rockstar keep pumping out.
God I can't wait for the AI bubble to burst and economy to reset.

Why are you associating one of the most capital poor regions in the world with excess production values. I guess Indian is the new tranny generic insult you put into anything.

>>725355602 (OP)
Technology should serve the gameplay for the sake of a more interactive and reactive world.
Problem with rockstar is that they don't use the word "fun" in development. They're like Naughty Dog, they want to copy the movies because making an actual game is too scary.

>>725363282
This. Didn't really care about gta6 anyway but now I don't even think I'll even know when it releases finally. They really need to stop announcing games years before they consider a release date it just kills the hype.

>>725363807
Seems like half the people in this thread are just trolling, which I guess is par for the course on /v/ these days. Any sane person can see why this is stupid, especially when they already had to delay the game once.

If the biggest games company in the world should be allowed to but in a luxurious amount of detail. This is how tech gets pushed forward. I don't think every game needs even a quarter the detail but it's only positive that someone is doing this shit.

>>725363953
You're sadly just an idiot huh

>>725364114
Not really because now devs and investors seem to think that grafix are the main part of games. The technology is cool but it is siphoning the soul out of modern "games"

>>725355790
>oh so like when a fun game has pointless details, but when the game is a boring slog suddenly these details don't matter?
Yes.

>>725364114
Except it results in games taking a fucking decade to come out.

>>725364114
hello saar thank you for liking
we give tech to indie but they dont use

technology is dead

>>725355790
The games I liked growing up didn't take a decade to make.

>Spending billions of euros making your game a bloated piece of 200GB slop that runs 20 FPS at QHD on medium graphics on 90% of GPU's is le good, akshually
Why are manchildlennials like this? How does pretty clouds affect gameplay at all? At least HL2 used the technology advancements to make the game more fun, all the new tech that came out for the last 15 years or so does nothing at all except make normalfags who think "realistic" graphics over aesthetics

>>725364413
It makes for a better movie.
Once you understand rockstar aspires to make movies, not games, it all makes sense.

>>725364413
Millennials aren't the ones pushing for this shit. You think the people who grew up on 3D games like this care about graphical fidelity?

>>725364413
it's so youtubers with green screen and microphone than spend some time making 40 minute videos about these topics

>>725355667
but now gta6 will have volumetric clouds for your planes

>>725360989
depends on your politican position.
>communist
finally, a computer overlord that can govern us all, plan production and redistribute wealth like lenin intended
>capitalist
finally, a way to automate companies so we can exploit workers and customers as efficiently
>fascist
finally, an indestructible war machine so we can start an eternal war that will wipe out 50% of humanity(including our citizens)

This is about as "technology" as the peach fuzz on Alloys face.
Go suck some shrinking horse balls

Why do you niggers think programming is so hard, you do realize it's just math right? One guy and a week of time can do it.

they were raised on participation medals and constantly being told that there are no losers and then all had mental breaks when they entered the real world and found out it is still a meritocracy

Any game with a dynamic sky and weather uses volumetric clouds.

>>725355667
RDR2 isn't fun to play
Controls like dogshit
Has one of the worst stories I've ever seen in vidya
Still gets 97 (nine seven) metacritic score
Truly don't understand how people even get hyped for their games

>>725371139
No, Technology works on a mechanical level. Clipping through a bunch of overly detailed clouds is not technology, if anything its anti-technology because no player is benefiting from interacting with it yet it exists to make things in the game "look" real.

>>725364094
I think volumetric clouds are cool and I don't think it's causing the issues since we've had volumetric clouds rendering in multiple games
