Quantum Break looks bad, it look like a old game
Why the game looks that way, like to low native resolution whit edges unfinished and like it need some Aniosotropic filter 16x and 8x antialising, even on ultra it don´t look pretty.
Fx 6300 at 4.5ghz
gigabyte R9 380x
12gh ram

if for me personally in pc, it seems the worst I've seen in graphics

What are you talking about?! Graphics are the best I've seen on PC in a long time. Many other games aren't considerably above Xbox 360 level.

That shoddy screenshot is not exactly validating your point. LOL

That screenshot looks ugly just like the game, sorry.

When did games become all about graphics...
People today can't appreciate a good story.

EDIT:
Not going to lie though but that screenshot is ugly af
I don't think hachre has the settings set to max.

The brightness/gamma seems tooo high in the above screenshot making it look washed out. Also upscaling needs to be turned off.

It's one of the best looking games of this generation.

I think this game actually looks quite good at its best, and the art direction is quite outstanding. However, since all the default presets have "upscaling" enabled, most players are likely to get the worst possible initial impression.

No matter how good an upscaling algorithm may be, the blurriness resulting on fixed-pixel displays just isn't worth it.

So to OP: did you try to disable upscaling?


Personally I think the game looks quite fantastic on max settings; especially where lighting is concerned.

Honestly the game looks 10x better on any setting without upscaling. If you have a GPU with a large amount of VRAM you should be able to at least use ultra textures then put some settings to high and some to medium without getting too much lag.

with my 1070 I can get the game running at 60 fps with medium settings and a few high settings as well as ultra textures without upscaling, and it looks almost 10x better then the ultra default with upscaling. The high settings would be stuff that doesn't matter too much like effects. If I could set a custom 45 FPS cap I REALLLLLLY would. I don't mind 45 FPS with ultra settings however 30 FPS is just WAY to laggy.

With upscaling in my opinion isn't awful either as long as you have EVERYTHING set to it's max state.

I do see this as a game I want to revisit when I have the GTX 1980 Ti in the near 30 years.

I played the game with a mix of Ultra and High settings without Upscaling and Anti-Aliasing off in order to maintain a solid 72fps (for half-rate adaptive vsync on a 144hz monitor), and it worked out pretty well. But when I was just testing the game, I noticed that with the 30fps lock on Ultra, Upscaling off, and Anti-Aliasing on, the 1070 (my current card as well), only gets between 45-65% usage, so I used RivaTuner (which comes with MSI Afterburner) to set up a custom 48 fps limit (because it's twice as "cinematic" as 24fps film :P). Anyway, it worked out quite well, but I decided against it in the end.

If you want, you should try it out. Here is a link to Afterburner: https://www.msi.com/page/afterburner
The framerate limiter feature is found in the RivaTuner Statistic Server which installs alongside it. :D

Already rocking an MSi GTX 1070. It's running faster then a stock 1080.
The only reason I don't do half-rate v-sync is because it usually locks me at 30 FPS. Without v-sync I get about the same FPS on default ultra settings without upscaling.

personally I need v-sync. The lines drive me insane. As for the custom lock I tried my my own it's just with v-sync on it locks it down to 30 FPS or I just get REALLLLLLY bad tearing.

Also you have to be wary about where you are when you state your FPS. When you're inside you will EASILY get a lot more FPS then being outside.

Well, yeah, that is why I have scare quotes around the word "cinematic".

Console centric marketing and gullible consumers have made the term only meaningful when used mockingly. :/
