Battlefield V Video

This video (NSFW) shows off the Battlefield V alpha in all its glory. This is running at 4K and 60 fps with all the bells and whistles turned on, inspiring creator MassiveG to boast it's the best-looking Battlefield V video on the Internet. The clip runs almost 12 minutes, showing off combat, weather effects, destructible environments, and more from the upcoming military shooter sequel. Word is:

NO artificial frame-blending, color correction was used in this video.

This is Battlefield V viewed as intended by its art team.

Recorded with YCbCr 4:2:2, 12bit color depth.

Oh, so we get more of the same child-minds running around with no tactical plan, lone-wolfing, chaotically spraying ammo at everything that moves, hacking with aimbots, and shit talking about their K/D ratio like it matters... but all in 4K and 60 fps??? Oooohh... color me unimpressed.

Specifically selling in Germany I'd guess. Display of the swastika for entertainment purposes is forbidden. Unless it's involving a statement. And BF5 is a fantasy game, so it would never get the go ahead for this in Germany.

So tone or luminance every pixel Blue is shared amongst 4 pixels Red is shared amongst 8 pixels? What about green? Same as tone? 709 color space doesn't look very large https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rec._709

Arguably not worth buying the game new/full price if you're only interested in single player, of course. Danger Dog -> that's really going to suck if all the maps are made for Grand Operations, instead of having any for actual Conquest Large...wouldn't be too much of a surprise though.

YCbCr 4:2:0 has it in the name luminance, chrominance blue, chrominance red Luminance is 4k Blue chroma channel is 2k -50% loss of all blue hue detail Red chroma channel is 1k -75% loss of all red hue detail Youtube then shifts the color space to bt709, meaning it's not even 100% 8bit since gamma range and all that matter too. ^^ But it's still a better quality video than most you'll see, if you watch at 4k that is. At 720p the red chroma channel is essentially SD quality. So yeah, youtube is and remains not the place for video quality enthusiasts

same gameplay, more pixels. Game devs have definitely lost their creativity.

Just saying, all Battlefield games do this, I just think it looks super weird to see a glowing enemy in a dark room depends on how the light source hit's the player, I found the ability to see players in shadows rather difficult, probably as it should be. It was hard to ID friend from foe with the motley crew type atmosphere, the customization was baked in so after awhile you could sort of get a read on an enemy player from short range, could be much worse in the final version when everyone is wearing a different outfit. Battlefield is now being fought over by people wanting simulation and those wanting it to remain arcade. It'll hit somewhere in the middle satisfying neither crowd fully. The focus on the maps will be on Global Operations with other modes shoe horned into them, I know this saves dev time and hard drive space but doesn't always make for the best experience possible. Conquest on this map felt like playing conquest on most of the Bad Company 2 maps that were designed for Rush mode, rather confining and difficult to maneuver in ground vehicles. Yes, bit of a joke showing this video off on youtube but at least it shows that they're not using wonky filters to desaturate the graphics.

Imagine the horror if it was a glowing female. 9:01 for the realizms and historicals.
