War Thunder is a free to play aviation combat MMO by Gaijin Entertainment. Players can pilot a variety of fighter planes from the WW2 era as they engage in unique missions in huge detailed environments.
Two weeks ago Gaijin Entertainment announced that their online flight simulator War Thunder is going to be released on the PS4, and looks like they’re working hard to dress the game up for the occasion.
Today the development studio announced that the already amazing graphics of the game are going to receive a further major upgrade in an upcoming patch to the PC version, with a radical improvement of the display of shadows in the game.
Umh, AFAIK War Thunder is a DirectX 9 game for now, so that's not tassellation, but regular normal mapping, I believe :D
It does look awesome though.
Yeah the PC version runs on DX9, though hard to say if the PS4 version does as well.
At 0.03 seconds it really looks like tessellation to me, then again I'm lacking sleep so my eyes could be fooling me.
Agreed it looks amazing and I'm not even into flight sims.
The PS4 doesn't use DX9, it's using the latest iteration of OpenGL which supports tesselation.
Will it have Head tracking also? Will be cool if they start implementing Sony's new camera , which hopefully will work in any room lighting situation.
You obviously never tried head tracking
because they never work
head tracking is in gt5, check it out for 5 minutes then turn it off
im sure it will work a bit better for ps4 with its new 3d camera, well I cant see how it can be any worse then the ps3 camera
Gaijin Entertainment has announced that War Thunder has been updated to version 1.29, receiving a number of important and qualitative improvements. Starting in Russia on 1st November 2012, the War Thunder open beta has attracted more than one million gamers, and this new update will serve as a pleasant surprise for all of these pilots, providing not only welcome gameplay innovations but also a multiple enhancements, new features, and a more convenient and stylish user interface.
Pilots!
Now we have a separate gaming cluster for War Thunder players from USA, Canada, South America, Australia and New Zealand.
Dedicated War Thunder servers significantly improve the connection and reduces ping greatly. So the game is now much more comfortable to play and more improvements are to come!
