Like many others i have a high hope for a new WW2 Battlefield.
But when i see female pirates, flambojant ninjas, Blue face masks and in the unlock screen of BF4 to get some early rewads for BFV u can see a beautiful (Ugly ) Red white blue tank .
i know BF isnt all about that realistic crap and it doesnt have to be. but if im playing a WW2 game i dont want to have Clowns and brightly colord cars and tanks .. it need to be dark and grity.
Some people might like it . sink some money into cosmetics i get it your making a lot of stuff free.
But im just asking for there to be the option to turn off cosmetics for some one who doesnt care about it .
I dont want no gold tanks or guns or knifes .. if u want that go play CS:Go
Stop being stupid. He does not mean that in the '40s were not colors. He means the post-process and the rendering of this new game does not give you the sensation of WW2 battle. And he did mention that he refers to clown soldiers and pinky-fancy vehicles.
I don’t understand the too colorful or cartoony arguments.
Do people think that before color cameras, the world existed in grainy darkness? Or that gunfire and tank treads sucked the green out off all the grass and the blue out of the sky?
From what I saw, the most vibrant color was green, and it looked like grass looks. You know… Green.
Well, colors have a pretty big role in creating visual experience in any visual media - TV, movie, games…
Take a CoD WaW as an example - it was pretty grey, grim and dark. No vibrant colors, no clear blue sky, nothing like that.
And guess what - it really worked well for the heavy, sad and grim atmosphere of that game, combined with sounds, music and general game design of it.
So, if you know at least something about making video content, you wouldn’t really underestimate the power of colors in your picture in making your visual product.
But one also must realize that stereotypical design choices aren’t a standard and don’t need to be followed. Why should a battle across emerald green fields with clear blue skies be flushed of most of its color to convey that it was a sad event? Especially when it’s less part of a story about the battle, and more just a multiplayer map in an arcade shooter were visibility is a huge aspect, and in which every multiplayer match starts at the beginning of said battle?
That’s also without mentioning the weather processes that can make said colorful maps appear gloomy and dark for a limited and random time.
I’ve said it a couple of times on other threads, but the trailer could easily be just one scene from one environment. Think Rupture, with green grass and blue skies. There may well be other maps that are much more grim and gritty and grey. They’ve probably picked the brighter environment to pull on some of the Fortnight popularity, but I firmly expect it to have a balance of more gloomy maps, and less cartoony than people seem to be alluding to.
