Comparison Vdieo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hxABHkkbT8&t=1s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDWeznkVQEw So something always felt "off" to me in the visuals of 2042, not necessarily bad but I couldn't put ...

Yeah but your kinda comparing apples and oranges...it's comparing 1 thing where all the focus and effort has been spent to another where it was kept on a severe budget and is extra.
To make a point you need to compare main game animations with main game animations.
They might be the same...i don't know, don't care that much tbh....but its just crazy how people compare small unrelated things searching for things that are wrong when there's already so much to choose from.
It's ok to be annoyed i'm just saying if your going to make a point make it accurate or it will just be ignored.
@Matty101yttamBut is all the focus spent somewhere else when they brought in multiple studios to work on each gamemode? The same studio that worked on portal didn't work on AOW or hazard and therefore put all their focus on one of the 3 as did the other 2 studios. Portal is marketed as one of 3 main gamemodes, it is not a "side" mode.
And yes I agree that people compare small unrelated things which is why I acknowledged I may just be nitpicking and its not that bad compared to other issues. But like I said, it all adds up.
I am not making a point, I am just sharing my thoughts and asking others what they think as said in the original post. If I had to make a point, the point would be that games released ten years ago are showing better quality and design decisions than one released today that should have had every advantage and thing needed to blow everything out of the water.
- @AntEater1997 yes...yes it is, portal was simply a touch up of reimported assets to get them back up to date.
AoW was supposed to be the money earner with cosmetics and buyable specialists...you really think they spent a load of money and effort on portal?- @Matty101yttam except its not only that, the logic editor is a complicated thing. And portal also has 2042 standard content (i.e make a vanilla server with vanilla settings/animations) So it's not just reimported assets if that includes the new content from the whole main gamemode. (AOW)
Logic editor is not complicated, you get the same instructions they use for making their own modes like conquest give each command a bland little box and let people drag and drop, its a 1 for 1 icon = "if" statement.
It would have taken like 2 guys...a programmer and a UI guy to make it, and a graphical artist to touch up the assets which would have been a brief job maybe a couple of weeks.
In terms of difficulty it would have been:
AoW 97%
Portal 2.5%
hazard zone 0.5%
or something to that effect
Lastly the video(which we're talking about remember) doesn't show any new assets as i said, only the reimported portal assets.
