The High-Res Screenshot Thread!

It would be better if on WoW you could actually see characters in the distance though, which you can't as it fades them out, at least when I played it did.

Look at the second screenie, there's definately little people by the flag. It does fade them out eventually, but that's fairly extreme range.

They do that because some people have to have their draw distance at small - therefore it would be unfair to them :p

It's actually because it reduces workload on the server. If people could see others in the far distance, that means the server has to send and recieve more information than before, resulting in higher latencies for all. This is why battlefields have higher character distance draw than normal, because those are on platforms designed to handle that information properly.
 
anyone could tell me how to take screenshots in crysis? when i hit F12 i get a message in console : [Warning] Unknown command: r_getscreenshot 2

But it's also in place because of how unfair it would be to people who couldn't handle large viewing distances...
 
There's still some leeway in BGs and the like between min and max draw distance, just not as much for players as it is for scenery.
