If it is then they basically re-released the trailer from yesterday. The polycount and texturing on Caranthir still look like shit, sorry to say that.
Hello everyone! I recently got into the Witcher games, been lurking these forums for quite some time and wow, I can't believe there was so much fuzz about this. I thought the trailer didn't look too bad, but either way it's still nice to hear this isn't the final look either because the latest screenshoots of the game I saw were stunning. So I guess I understand why people were freaking out a bit heh
downloaded the video in the link and I can confirm it still looks pretty shitty. doubtful its the new video...
we just gotta wait a little longer :T

Someone who has more knowledge than me can tell me if a bad compression can make texture in simil-low res?
It can blur them out, but I don't think that is our case, but I'm 100% sure they have bigger resolution for it.
This has nothing to do with youtubes shitty compression routines but more with not letting the PC steal the show. Can it be anymore obvious?
Are the textures actually loaded on this vid? it looks like game bugged and whoever made the trailer, missed it. Also it looks like it was made fast like somebody was in a hurry.
Don't count your chickens. And how does questioning obvious poor quality reflect on ones intelligence?
Compression works by exchanging actual info (in this case colours & resulting textures) for a similar info that is more frequent across the file, thereby reducing the total amount of information held. So yes, blurring and seemingly making textures less well defined is exactly the kind of thing compression techniques can do to videos. What they would not do however is remove polygons or have a noticeable effect on edges.
I thought it was on the ps4 version,anyway is there another comparison like this its just 1 screenshot
Call me prophet
I usually don't wish anything bad to someone, but I am pretty sick of those people which jump to conclusion. One f*cked trailer and they are starting to blame and calling whole CDPR like EA or Ubi and they perfectly know how the game will look like..
from my knowledge of videos I must admit compression has little to do with the absent textures we see in the trailer....you might get a bit of blurriness and change in lighting here and there but not something that drastic. something else must be going on here but ill await my praise or criticism for when they actually release the real deal.
Does anyone know what youtube channel is the new video supposed to appear on?
Also recognise that at least two compression techniques have been applied to the ingame scene as viewed by the player. Once by RED's compression into a video, then again by Youtubes own compression. Also, really good subtle textures are often comprised of quite similar colours and would therefore be vulnerable to quite horrible compression effects.
It is entirely feasible that these 2 compression techniques could work badly together. That the REDs video looked ok, and once upped to YT lost the quality. I can see this being an explanation for the faceplate in particular.
