Lookin Good! Take that NCSoft! Nerf THIS, Castle! Looks like cell-shading didn't make it passed beta as previously implemented, apparently. Nice.
I'm glad the cell-shading didn't make it actually.
That works out on some games, but thus far every MMO I've seen try it looks silly.
Couldn't agree more!
I played CoX for 4 years, and was really excited when this title was announced, but I still have yet to be excited about any screenshots I have seen of the game. Don't get me wrong, I will still most likely purchase the game (I love my tights), but the excitement just isn't there yet.
Did you go to their site and watch the videos for the different powersets? That wow'ed me.
Do you have a link confirming this? As far as I knew there is a menu option to disable the cell shading, it's not completely removed (although, it is now optional). Unless I missed an annoucement.
Nah, don't have a link, was going off the pics, but to know its optional is big.
Alright, thanks Reborn. Just want to keep my facts straight.
Cell shading is 100% optional in game. 100%. Definite.
Yep! Although, it seems to get automatically activated when you get it up to "High Quality" graphics on the preset choices.
