Next stretch goal idea - better graphics support the one year after release game

There’s a lot of posts, I have not read them all, but it could be next goal upgrade to a better graphics? Is it possible to half a year, a year after the release of the game, but the goal is to update the look of the game, because the fans of the game will make its own sequel.
Dan Vavra talk he chose his CryENGINE for easy updating,maybe be “very much music for little money” .

I am sorry it is me topic duplicate :blush:

Better Graphics? have you seen the game yet?

Its in alpha and looks better then 90% of the games on the market, GTA5 just released on PC looks amazing and KCD still looks better.

This has been on the main page for several months now.

they are focusing on just getting the game completed first.

I think it looks georgeous. Sure there will be a lot of better looking games by the time 3rd act comes out, but dont forget that the game is huge and WH is still an Indie studio with limited budget. They need to keep the same quality level across all acts to keep it consistant. They might keep improving graphics for all acts towards the release of the last one slightly, but dont expect anything major. There will be no time/money/point to redo all the assets. No game is ever perfect and can be improved forever. They better just start some new project when its done.

Sure, now is very good graphic, and she is for next gen hardwahre, is it OK.
Butgame have release date 06/2016 (maybe) and i write 1year after … is it 06/2017.
Why i think this though?
In 06/2017 is this graphic no best of best, and in kickstarter write… we have plan comunity tools for comunity story in game. I want in this time better graphics. You anderstandt?

Ya warhorse studio is small and have small budget, i want next stretch goal for this, for 1. act game with better graphics details. Dan Vávra talk CryEngine is easy upgraded, it is possible.

Earl – i know your image, not now! In future

Well, in the recent German interview, Dan is saying that their approach to the design resembles lego. I suppose that if any advances regarding graphics are made in Act 3, they should be easily brought over to Act 1, huh?

graphics is dependent on technology. pbr is a type of art standard, shaders, lighting algorithms are all handled by cryengine. if they want to improve graphics, they just put in new assets, textures. and that is exactly what will happen. graphics polishing is done late in development cycle, so by the time game releases, it’ll look as good as any other game released at that time, perhaps better.

Yes Dan Vávra talk CryEngine is easy upgraded. This is goal :heart_eyes:

part of the final art phase is future proofing, making sure the game stands up to time.

1-2 years isn’t going to yield significant enough graphical improvements to overhaul the game anyway. some games from as early as 2006 still look quite good.

this suggestion might make more sense in 5 years when they invent something better than pbr, and textures double in size or something.

keep in mind the original crysis came out in 2007, and many modern games still struggle to compete with it, visual fidelity wise and even feature-wise.

the engine is right. the art is right. the worry that it’ll become outdated in 1-2 years is unfounded.
