bad benson 1733 Posted June 12, 2015 oh wow! i love the colour palette and the distant tree lods and the water reflection (finally!) and the detailed terrain mesh (strip mines). so much green! just what i wanted. good stuff all around. i guess we're getting dense jungle after all. now i'm kind of annoyed by the fact that it's quite a while until we can get our hands on it ;) not a fan of the whole hype thing anyways since it kind of takes away the surprise and waters down the excitement over time. but i get that E3 kind of plays a role here too. so for me personally this little leak incident doesn't really make a difference. i hope it's intentional and if not that the person responsible doesn't get spanked too hard ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaptainAzimuth 714 Posted June 12, 2015 can someone extract the map from the Tanoa page in the background? Looks to be a section of the Tanoa map, but i can't be sure to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vegeta897 13 Posted June 12, 2015 I'm not sure why people think BI would intentionally design an island that performs poorly. They had full control over what setting they chose to create the terrain. Performance issues are one of the main complaints from people. Don't you think one of the first things they did was make sure they could pull off dense vegetation with a good framerate? User-made maps with dense vegetation that run poorly are not a real indication of the performance of this map. BI has engine-level control and can tweak all assets to spec so that the island runs well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Judging by pictures it looks like the trees have some pretty aggressive LODs. Should run fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Krieger26 15 Posted June 12, 2015 Using google maps I found an island that nearly matches the pictures revealed so far. The Lihir Islands have similar locations of its open mine in relation to the port and city. Thoughts? Location: https://goo.gl/maps/2KIIL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Defunkt 431 Posted June 12, 2015 Looks pretty good. I bet the Life mods will love it and I would guess this might have played some part in BI's thinking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
