I honestly feel like I am going blind or that I cant detect sarcasm any more because it just looks like agent of mayhem to me.

New Crackdown 3 campaign gameplay footage
- Thread starter MosquitoSmasher

This is what im really struggling with. Even though Spiderman's world is mostly static, its a joy to observe and feel empowered by. CD world looks entirely built for the Agent, and therefore every one within it is inconsequential.
You're kind of missing the point here. Crackdown is a superhero game where your characters ability to run fast, jump high and deal damage increase as you power up your character.
Real life physics have no place here.
Imagine how much fun Spiderman would be if gravity prevented you from running up walls or every time you web-sling into a building, rather than the game allowing you to do some unrealistic traversal chain, you just smashed a Spidey sized crater in the wall and fell down to the ground. Not fun.
How does one 'respond' to your comment that some of the game assets were made in MS Paint?
Crackdown 1 is BC and rendered at 4K on xbox one x.
It looks SIGNIFICANTLY worse than CD3.
This game reminds me so much of Recore, very very very AA. Not sure if I'll give it a go as the premise behind the game isn't for me and the game definitely doesn't do anything to draw in new players. Wonder how successful it will be.
I worry Microsoft isn't going to have any AAA games besides Forza/Gears/Halo at this point. Will have to wait and see the quality of games the new studios put out. Hope Sea of Thieves continues to get updates for the rest of the year too and turns into something great.

Really into the art direction and color palette they've went for. It's obvious there was no getting beyond the scope the project was originally conceived with, but at the same time it feels like they've did their best with it, and the game actually looks really fun. Loved the original so I'm really looking forward to this.
Blatant about what?
Someone posted a video of gameplay for an upcoming game, I said it looked meh.
Then you seemed to express annoyance that I wasn't being moderated for saying that. At least that's how I interpreted it. Feel free to correct me or elaborate.
You're making me feel like I've stumbled into the crossfire of some fanboy turf war.
Most things look great. They nailed the comic book style they've went with for the most part. But I agree, those parasols don't look too good. But when doing those platformer parts on the skyscrapers it looks quite impressive. And it's colorful. I love that.
But let's not pretend this game will win any awards for graphical prowess.

John has already said "it looks great" I believe elsewhere....
No, Second son is certainly a looker. The PS3 Infamous games however were blurry, dull and plain ugly in the main. Hence my issue with the guy equating Crackdown 3's visuals with that title. Ridiculous.
This is objectively wrong. Crackdown isn't the best the Xbox One can do, but then it never has been. Crackdown 3 objectively looks better than Infamous 2 aside from maybe art style differences. It looks better than agents of mayhem too, which is the closest thing to it this gen.
It's definitely infamous 2. Cole didn't have the amp or Union Jack jeans in infamous 1.
"Meh" and "looks like a last gen game" are not equivalent.
The former is a lazy expression we're all guilty of.
The latter is shitposting, and you're obvious about it.
It looks like a poor man's version of SR IV but it still looks fun enough and the slightly more restricted mobility will make for more interesting platforming segments I guess.
I think we're going to see even more 'AA' games from Microsoft in the next years. Compulsion, Undead Labs, Ninja Theory, inXile, etc. will all be making games between that 'AA' and 'AAA' spot. They need games to fill Gamepass.
Just hope the games will be quality.
This game wont be the best but yeah post like that is obvious lol.
It's more about you wanting a 'win' when it comes to graphics, to the extent that you're hoping Digital Foundry could give you one.
Just enjoy the game. Internet points worth less than in-game achievements.
He wasn't that negative at all, but I couldn't listen to it. Don't like his style.. he uses so many words to say so little.
I invite you to my days gone threads...wait you've been in them you should know....
By disagreeing and providing an example why he thinks differently before calling everyone out.
True.
But he does have a point. DF will prob praise CD3 and people around here don't expect that.
Hmmmmm......
Pretty sure that's a screenshot of the downloadable Infamous game not Infamous 2. I doubt it matters really for comparison's sake either way but I don't think in Infamous 2 you could see people's hearts and know you could when you're a vamp in the downloadable game.
Not to stomp on you while you're down but it's "rein" in this sense as if you're reining in a horse. Reign is more related to a king's rule. Common mistake because of how utterly dumb English is.
Yeah, what was he even saying here? It's good but I could be playing something else that's better? Dude should probably question his purpose as a reviewer. He sounds confused.....
Preloaded and ready to rock, can't fucking wait. As much as I fucking hate the windows store £2 for 2 months gamepass is not too shabby. What is more important to me is the world being designed around platforming for collecting orbs. That and the feeling of getting more powerful which was superb in Crackdown 1. From all the footage I've seen it at least seems to have those right and that leaves me very interested indeed. Couldn't be any worse than Crackdown 2 anyway.
... What? lol
No. It's more about that it's time we get an objectively view on this. And since John already made some comments on CD3 here, I know that this will be likely pretty positive.
Haha, agree. A reviewer who doesn't want to review a game...
I've been working on the review and will be doing a stream today once the embargo drops, as a long time fan of Crackdown it matches and exceeds my expectations by a large margin. Pretty much erases the bad taste of Crackdown 2 completely.
As for comments talking about this game "looking" dated....I have footage going up to dispel that insane notion shortly.

I still feel like there's some weight to Spider-man, and the animations help support that, no matter how physics defying he gets.. There's animation missing here. They just look like they float along everywhere and land with zero impact.
I might still check it out if reviews are solid. I like blowing shit up.
It reminds me that Saint's Row game who takes place in hell. Empty areas, bad physics, last gen graphics and gameplay
Normal citizens roaming the streets while chatting and cars driving around would help with ambiance. I did see a party happening on a rooftop so maybe it's there.
I think it's a no brainer this wont sell well at all, it's honestly so off the mark with what is popular right now regardless if it's good or not.
It's a title to boost ( and maintain) gamepass subs. Which is ok.
This was all present in the first game so I'd expect it to be in 3 as well.
