Awful textures

[Ibn Karim al-Muwallad]

This is exactly useful feedback. The condition of the graphics and especially the human textures is one of the defining issues of the game right now. Everyone is speaking with the knowledge that this is EA, and we're all hoping it's gonna get better, but one of the best ways to get it better? Pointing out what sucks and needs to improve.

I am not even making the point about EA here. For example: I can understand people complaining about features not currently in the game or features who were poorly implemented and/or not well polished. Because people EXPECTED these features. Has TW promised anything different regarding graphics? Is this significantly different from anything we've seen in previous footage? I even disagree on "defining issues". There are tons of other issues with certainly a higher priority. Like some major bugs, who have to be fixed. Or the way factions and npcs behave, the whole concept of customization should be changed in my opinion...But all of this criticism is about making promised or implemented features better, so that they are more like what we've expected. I have an other question though:

Have you guys tried this?

Is the graphics bad? Looks pretty good to me. Maybe I’m no expert but someone said it’s worse than Skyrim. The Skyrim I remember had awful graphics. Grass and foliage was 2D.

It's reasonable to point out that the graphics have a long, long way to go. This is PS2 era stuff, it would have looked dated 2-3 generations ago.

It's not unreasonable to expect a 2020 game to look better than Skyrim. This looks substantially worse than Skyrim.

You need glasses my friend.

Riverwood isn't exactly the best example to use for Skyrim. On the whole, the textures are not quite as detailed but the character details are way better in Skyrim. And that's an issue, one I hope is eventually addressed.

I think facial expressions in bannerlord is lacking. I saw a devblog on it once but it’s not really been implemented. However, animations and immersion are pretty good. I see civilians walking around carrying things in cities and there’s stuff going on in taverns etc. In that aspect, much better than skyrim. Also better than Witcher. Npc’s in that game were just bland. Could still be improved on though.

funny, you used random picture for skyrim, also bad location and lighting at that point. And for bannerlord you used the picture from the devs. Yeahhh dude that's some fair difference. But still the textures are almost the same.

I am currently not near to my PC, but I can gladly post an ingame screenshot later. And why is it a bad location an lightning? You can clearly see the textures and 3D models in the image.

muh graphics

Indeed, and the combat mechanics are from 1999 ? You have only 4 moves to attack, how lame is this ¿?¿

Is this april joke from the devs ? I guess we see tomorrow the real version of M&B Bannerlord!

This is Bannerlord, the 4 directional attacks is what it's about. You clearly never played Warband or don't understand what this game is about.

Here is a screenshot from my own game. Are you now happy?

You can already see the difference from your pic and from the devs.

So here ARE another screenshots. Tell me: Where is the downgrade? This is relatively similar location.

Just take a look at the ground textures and compare them to Skyrim

Its definitely not the graphics which make a game good and immersive. Mount&Blade was never dependant on realistic graphics to achieve that certain feeling of really being there. Only people who are new to the series will complain about that. There are still many problems with the graphic and lighting but the game doesen't look bad at all! And you call that no special lighting effects and no great shadows?

Yea, that last one is from Kingdom Come, which has been praised from everyone for its fantastic graphics. And its on ultra settings. Doesen't look so different does it?

And even in Kingdom Come the walls look pretty bad if you zoom in that close.

Your settings are not on ultra for KCD. bad bait.

I can’t even play above medium graphics settings in bannerlord with my 1060 it has much stutter. I just assume it’s because the graphics are too good for my laptop to handle. Even medium looks pretty good to me, but I don’t have experience playing latest big titles on pc.

Mygod are you stupid ? or just a beginner troll ? You can see definitely big difference with the lighting and no shadows, also it looks they added a yellow blur to increase more fps( that also didn't work)

BTW On the pictures from the devs, you see many more items. They also removed it from the EA version. So... yes sir.... It's the same in your blind eyes. Here is a simple list of the difference.

- Lighting is much worse

- Removed Shadows

- Added yellow blur

- Removed Items and depth

- Texture is also a little bit less

- Character mesh is also a bit downgraded

You can just see 6 difference from the pictures. Yes, it is a big downgrade.

I hope this makes finally sense for you. Just read it a couple of times, so your brain can handle it.

Of course, you have low stands for big games. That's why you find this okay. You will come back to me. When you played some decent games on ultra/4k

I’ll keep my low standards. Very little value in eye candy. I don’t go around tasting $1000 wine to see what the best wine tastes like. Bannerlord graphics exceeds most people’s expectations and is certainly acceptable. In the future, mods can build on it for those who desire eye candy.

I spent much more, for mine wine (: We also paid for the AAA price, so we also desire now, the AAA graphics. Amen
