Well I got to London and I must say it is has certainly "opened" up and the amount of detail is astonishing, FPS has dropped from 50-60 to 30's, although it varies.

IMO the Lighting isn't that good, not bad, but not up there with fallout 4, GTA 5 etc. imo and I actually feel that it is one of the reasons for the game not looking as good as it could in certain areas, it is too bright/glowy looking at times and gives a washed out appearance, maybe it will change/improve as I get further into the game or perhaps this is just the style that ubi were aiming for. I'm sure someone will improve the colours/contrast of the game with another sweetfx config though....

Assuming that the NPC count, buildings geometry etc. is the reason for the poor performance and the reason for lesser quality textures etc., I would rather them cut back on that and improve the other areas more. Saying that, I'm sure that they could have used better textures as with the last few games i.e. GTA 5, the textures aren't demanding at all i.e. there is little to no difference in performance between various settings:

I think the lighting rather suits the game, I really like those light-soaked streets:p Textures are fine, IMO. Fired up GTA V and it's also lacklustre in this department but still looks pretty good (not as good as I remembered it), though:

Yeah, some parts of GTA 5 can look rather meh and the shimmering on edges really annoys me, are you using sweetfx?

My GTA 5 screenies:

I found one of the patches by R* to really sharpen/detail the textures even further as well as improving the weather effects but at the same time, texture popin seems to be more common, don't remember this being an issue on release day...

I think once someone get a sweetfx config to my liking out for ACS, it will look rather stunning.... I read that supposedly there is no anisotropic filtering being applied in ACS either so that could explain the textures looking a bit bland, will try forcing some through AMD CCC later on. The textured brick work on buildings and stones etc. in general looks VERY good when up close though.

Yeah, I have a sfx profile on, vanilla GTA doesn't look like that. Looks lot better in motion, though.

That CA is awful, wish we could get rid of it.

Yeah the HUD for this game seems to be very much in the centre, more so than other games. It looks worse on 21.9 though since the HUD doesn't change from a 16.9 format and you have the extra FOV on the sides i.e. so with the same image, this is how it would look on a 16.9 display:

I feel that they could have done better with the HUD as it's pretty bad overall imo, hope someone implements a 21.9 fix, either that or I remove all of it via options :p

Few more quick screenies.

Finding it really hard to get good screenies of this game, buildings are so damn big and with the low FOV, you have to move so far back in order to get them all in the screen but once you get a certain distance, the low draw distance removes a lot of the detail :( Of course if they had a high draw distance, instead of getting 40-60FPS, we would be getting <15 FPS :D

The detail in the buildings/bricks/walls when up close is really impressive though.

MGS V. I love the way this game looks. The lighting, weather system and day/night cycle are all pretty fantastic (sandstorms!). As usual, a lot better in motion, but:

Not my pics, just to get that out straight away. Credit goes to HolyFridge on NeoGAF. But I think these need to be shared. These are the best in-game shots I've seen in a video game yet:

Brilliant game Skyfall, I absolutely love it!

What does everyone use to take their screenshots? I was using MSI AB but realised tonight how much it ruins the image quality, even on 100%.

I have a few other options like bandicam and Shadowplay but just thought I would ask in case there was a main one everyone used

Thanks
