And there I was thinking you were trolling us all. I should be more charitable.

I haven't posted here in years and haven't checked what's been going on in the Oddworld community either..
Here I was, thinking Oddworld Inhabitants had ceased to make games for good, and now we get what I was always dreaming of: a HD-remake of the 2D classic.

Damn, I'm surprised!
Now I just want to see more Munch.

You must have seriously been living under a rock to miss every shred of news related to Oddworld for the past 3 to 5 years.

That's the spirit

Crashpunk · #**371** 01-19-2015, 11:42 PM

In all seriousness. Not many people use 4K resolution. So I don't see it as a major priority.

If New 'N' Tasty sells enough, that's the plan.

I do

Recently got this bad boy to play it on. Thats not my room, though I have the same arm stand and LED back lights.

Havoc · #**373** 01-20-2015, 03:35 AM

Okay, aside from the scrawny keyboard that is one badass setup.

Varrok · #**374** 01-20-2015, 07:28 AM

your room is curvy

Nepsotic · #**375** 01-20-2015, 08:18 AM

I'm getting one of those ultra-wide 21:9 LG monitors, I can't tell if that's what you have or if it's just because of that humongous fish-eye you got going on there.

Crashpunk · #**376** 01-20-2015, 08:42 AM

Very nice. Although most games doesn't support resolutions beyond 1920x1080 unfortunately.

I hope New 'N' Tasty does look good on it however :P

Nepsotic · #**377** 01-20-2015, 08:53 AM

Well more and more developers are adding support for 21:9 displays so I'm just crossing my fingers. I think someone should create a "What does your setup look like?" thread. I'm not going to because at the moment it looks like shit. Soon, though, soon.

They usually do actually, most PC games will generally run at 2560x1440 or higher if your monitor supports it. They don't often support weird aspect ratios though.

Nepsotic · #**379** 01-20-2015, 08:54 AM

I assumed that was what he was talking about.

Crashpunk · #**380** 01-20-2015, 09:10 AM

Yeah newer games are starting too have different resolutions beyond 1920x1080. But older games don't. And usually require modding to try and make 'em.

I'd actually love to see everyone's setups. Make it so.

Varrok · #**381** 01-20-2015, 09:28 AM

The game assets (especially textures) won't look prettier in higher than 1080p game resolution, so what's the point anyway?

SoulStorm64 · #**382** 01-20-2015, 10:12 AM

Because if rockstar can do it so can youuuuuuuu

sarcasm aside no it doesn't really matter.

Because even if the assets won’t look prettier the overall resolution will look sharper than an upscaled image?

Varrok · #**384** 01-20-2015, 11:34 AM

I believe I wouldn't see an extreme difference between 1080p with AA and 4K. But that's just a guess

Phylum · #**385** 01-20-2015, 03:52 PM

e: If you run the game with AA at 1080p, the AA is applied before it gets upscaled. The result is still a blurry image. If you runt it at a native 4k, regardless of the texture quality, the result will look better simply from not being blurred.

The difference between Full HD and Ultra HD (4K) is negligible in most normal situations anyway. It's completely useless for any screen smaller than 65" so most commonly sized desktop monitors don't benefit from this at all unless you press your nose against the screen. For TV's you may make out extra details if you sit uncomfortably close to the TV, but at regular viewing distance you will barely, if at all, notice the difference.

I've actually been shopping for a new TV not too long ago and was torn between Full HD and Ultra HD as well. Ultimately, after watching the TV's in the store, I wasn't able to spot a significant difference from a distance. Also stores tend to fool you with the TV settings. I found that the store I visited had the color and black values for Full HD TV's dialed way back compared to Ultra HD TV's (which they want to sell), which made the Ultra HD TV's look better. But when I managed to put the Full HD TV's on the same color level (when no-one was around :P) the difference pretty much went away.

Sharper picture doesn't always mean better. I'd rather have a screen with really good color and black values instead of one with a huge resolution. And this is what I ended up buying. I bought one the last Full HD plasma TV's I could find and while it may not be Ultra HD, the picture quality is much better than what a 4K LCD/LED TV is able to produce. So on that note, if you're in the market for a new screen, stick with Full HD for now and save your money for when OLED becomes affordable in a few years. Then 4K will already be the standard and trust me, the store I went to had one Ultra HD OLED screen on display. It was 30.000 Euro's, but it is the hottest and sexiest picture you will ever see (until even better tech comes along). Nothing can beat it for color, black values and resolution.

I know. Why would you need AA at 4k anyway

As someone who owns a plethora of devices with different screen resolutions, you can definitely tell the difference.

Nepsotic · #**389** 01-21-2015, 08:59 AM

I don't know. I have an LG G3 with 4K resolution and it's the most beautiful screen I've ever seen. You can definitely tell the difference between it and a standard 1080p phone screen. You'd need a magnifying glass to spot pixels.

I think though, on a TV it wouldn't really be noticeable as you'd be sitting a considerable distance away from it.
