Lighting interaction on the grass on that hill does not look good at all. Looks like the contrast is up and at em.

I almost laughed hard at that picture and I find it ridiculous once I saw it on the main page...

Yeah, that's what I'm saying, the game sux
That's cool that you have your opinion on the game and all, but let's not turn this into another thread about why people are unhappy with the game.

They don't have the game,
therefore nobody can judge it.

On the other hand.
Looking at this picture makes me wonder how the game renders
in the distance.

Does it get more detailed as a player gets closer to things creating somekind of
render field?
Or does it just render all?

like making the grass only appear when close while showing a flat texture far away.
This is something that annoys me in fps games... hiding in a bush while it's not rendered for the enemy lol.

Models get rendered, the 3D grass is only round the player. Then again if someone is good enough to hide in grass that is ankle high, then something is wrong ^^

Well stuff wich can be used to hide in it won't fade out. The grass on the other hand is very low so fading that out is not a problem(and neccessary, atm it's still around 750k tris).
About that screen, it's neither the games fault nor grega's. ESF uses deferred rendering, means it writes 3*rgba colors per pixel. When not writing to all pixels it's up to the GPU vendor what to write as default values. ATI uses 1.0 Nvidia uses 0.0
Funny that it actually said the renderer that the grasspixel rendered is fully selfilluminated. It is fixed now :D

But seriously, except for the fact that we couldn't see goku nor cell, the pic is all right, but it could have been a lot better...
