Pixelated character sprites
Anybody else having a problem with the character models being really pixelated? Everything else is fine and crisp but once I pick a toon suddenly I'm playing a psx game. I am sure this is not how the characters are supposed to look.

The in-game sprites were designed for arcade cabinet resolutions. Unfortunately, you'll have to settle for how pixelated they look cause of that.

I always had success with downsampling in blazblue (don't know why).

I can't deal with pixelate characters. Hit refund button one hour into the game, back to waiting on Tekken 7. :)

The sprites likely look smoothed out on the PS4 version because they're upscaled from a 768p canvas, and perhaps the image being slightly brigher also causes the contours to stand out less too. But if you look at the details closely, it's not that big of a difference. Also, notice that the rest of the picture is less sharp as well: just look at the texture on the green thingy at Mai's right, the kind of sign and so on...

On PC, on the other hand, what you get is likely closer to what the real sprites would look like on a 768p screen, even though they must be upscaled through a common upscaling technique (bilinear, perhaps?).

Just my two cents here.
And if it bothers you, you can still play in upscaled 1280x768.

It's not the problem of upscaled/native.
BBCF is now too much pixelated in whether 768p or 1080p, way worse than BBCPEX.

Thanks for the help, but I am not sure how to change the scaling like you guys suggest.

At the moment, I can stream Chronophantasma from my PS4 to my PC, and when I window it alongside Central Fiction from Steam the comparison just makes no sense. The PS4 version of the older game looks way better.

So far, the port is pretty bad. Had to mess with Nvidia settings to remove performance issues and still have no idea what to do with the sprites. It's funny, but the arcade dump is a techinically superior version right now.

They need to fix it ASAP or it'll be another mess upon release

It is a mess already. Very unprofessional, CPEX and CSE ports didn't have these issues.

Guilty Gear is spot on as well.

I don't understand this response. Pixelated sprites might be a deal killer for me and then guess what? Back to waiting on Tekken 7 for me as well.

That really is borderline unacceptable. The game looks fun and I was excited to get into a new franchise but I don't blame anyone for not wanting to take a chance on a game that has an issue like this.

Unfortunate news imo.

Nesica version looked fine. I'll try the Steam version and compare screenshots.

Previous Blazblue PC ports were made with Xbox360 and PS3 video outputs in mind so the various image display issues were also present in the PC version.
