Here is a new batch of screenshots for Just Cause 3, no trailer here on Gamersyde as it is only available via Youtube. The game from Avalanche Studios will hit PC, PS4 and One in Winter 2015.
I guess we should reserve our judgment until we can see some gameplay.
one thing for certain though.. the current build does not look as nearly appealing as last-gen Just Cause 2 ...should the visuals not improve by release, the game will most certainly suffer a major setback

Dont like the art style everything from a distance, and even some details that are near look like made of clay :/ .
A) these are pretty clearly console shots. B) performance is way more important than super high fidelity in this game. For all we know this runs at 60 on consoles.
I think in some ways it does look a bit softer than JC2, but in a lot of other ways it looks way, way better.

60fps is not needed in this type of game. Yeah it's always better to have 60fps but not necesserly in Just Cause. I think it's an early build.. draw distance is wow, but details like the fields and foliage and all other plants looks like PS2.

Downgrade ;)
Is the word of the moment with the kids these days.
Screenshots obviously aren't doing the game favours, and I'm sure it'll look decent when seen in action, especially given that some of it's eye candy will be in it's effects like the explosions, which obviously need to be viewed in motion.

Agreed. Also, EuroGamer's interview with Just Cause 3's director, Roland Lesterlin, has the followind info (link to the article below):
"You can tether three objects now, banding them together by clicking down on the left stick, and Chaos objects - the things that blow up to glorious effect - are now physics driven, a feature artfully demonstrated as a spherical gas cylinder rolls down a hill before erupting into a fiery ball. It's a wilfully chaotic game, this, one that begs you to push at its edges and find something new, something crazier than the development team have managed themselves."
The fun you will get to experience by causing total chaos while doing crazy things is the most important feature. I will take "fun" over "graphics" anytime.

jeez, the screens are just down right awful. these were probably captured from ps3/360.
No. IQ is too high for them. Besides, shadows are rendered far beyond of PS360 capabilities. It's a current generation allright. I think game looks ok. But I was certainly wowed more by the first one on Xbox 360.

There will be multiplayer, of sorts, in Just Cause 3 - an asynchronous solution that has various challenges and associated leaderboards. While it's more ordered than the well-received mod, it's got a flavour that's unique to the series as you take a wingsuit or a car and carve your own racing line across a series of designated checkpoints. It's not, perhaps, what many had in mind for the sequel, but it's a small improvement on Just Cause 2's feature set that'll do just fine until the community has its way with the new game.

Commented on 2015-02-15 13:30:15I really want to see how those explosion & fire graphics look in motion. Because they look pretty good in these shots.
