Update Speculation thread

I wouldn't be surprised to see him pop up with a dev tag...

 

My 5070ti looking at every graphic update like “GIVE ME ALL YOU GOT”

 

OMG THAT LOOKS FANTASTIC also the song is a banger

 

I wonder if we'll get volumetric fog for West Coast USA; the last game I saw portray San Francisco fog well was Watch Dogs 2. Horizon: Forbidden West also may have done this, but I haven't played it.

 

The moment the devs posted a "we haven't forgot but it's going to take a while" video, there have been non-stop comments saying it's coming each update. Usually, it's engagement bait fueled by excitement. But still frustrating to see it pitched at every available chance.

 

The music immediately got me excited to see some bubbles. There were no bubbles.

 

):

 

Any clue what the coconut means?

 

OHMYGODVOLUMETRICCLOUDSAINTNOWAY

 

THIS IS SO AWSOME!!!

 

You mean the gray flash for 1 frame at about 25 seconds?

 

What was on it?

 

Gray.

 

I wonder if the new clouds also means we get better fog?

The fog looks weird right now, the horizon line is way too visible

 

oh nice volumetric clouds

 

I understand that clouds and shadows from clouds are not synchronized in any way?
and the shadows of the objects are still dancing

 

Never been so hyped for clouds before. I hope this means rain in the coming future

 

Maybe I need to get off my phone and actually boot up Beam and do a side by side but does the horizon/skybox in general look a little different or is it just me? I also run the dynamic skybox mod so much, maybe I’m just not remembering

 

I also use the dynamic skybox mod sometimes, but the horizon looks weird to me, especially around the distant islands in Italy

 

The skybox mod nukes the horizon line, whereas vanilla has a more pleasant one. But I’m looking at the teaser and comparing it to other videos and it just looks like a more pleasant gradient leading to the horizon? And I don’t know if that’s due to the particular environment settings (time/fog) or it’s an improved skybox to go with the clouds.

compare with this video and someone tell me if I’m crazy
