Grain glitch... clarification please?

Post » Sat Mar 07, 2009 4:44 am

Can anyone elaborate on what this grain glitch is, everyone goes on as if it is a gamebreaker and I have never experienced such a glitch so at the moment it just appears to be a proverbial buggy man to me.

Can someone shed light on what it actually is?

p.s the only really annoying glitch I have encountered so far is the pistol silencer locking itself in campaign

A game marketed as having the best console graphics ought not to have a glitch which makes it look like an Xbox 1 game. Duh.

Sorry but this is like saying you shouldn't complain about a poor picture on your TV because you can't get a good signal through the aerial.

You don't want to watch TV with interference all over the picture. Why should you put up a similar sort of problem in a game. It's nothing to do with being graphics whores.

Agree.

It takes out the fun on the graphics. If the Dev decide to do the game with Grain filter, ok, it′s a dev decision. But having this grain/lines as a bug is unforgivable.

How do you get rid of them you don′t have Gold memeber ship?

Just go look at the "official" grain bug thread.

You'll find all of the information you need there.

It essentially look likes there's a very low quality streamed video playing in the background of the image.

The grain glitch is large rectangular blocks over the entire image but is much more noticeable in smoke or when looking at the sky or in night vision mode. The night vision part isn't a huge issue because I don't expect clarity in night vision but when playing the game regular, it makes the graphics look horrendous.

The gain glitch happens in later levels, for me it started with the first raining level at night and got worse through the remainder of the game.

Also, in some levels you have the large rectangular block grain plus very noticeable lines moving across the screen.

The grain glitch hasn't properly been captured in the videos online, it is far more noticeable in real life than what has been demonstrated by the video's and it's frustrating because the game is so beautiful then bam, it looks like absolute **** and those lines and rectangles are all you see.

Also, the fix doesn't really fix anything, it may make it less salient but it clearly still there.

Yep ^^^ there are you tube videos showing how bad this BS glitch is. They still havent came out and said 100% that they are going to even fix it yet.

I love the game but i cant defend this type of disrepect towards there fanbase, no comm. No comfirmation of when a patch will be out, just cry-adam passing info on to devs. But maybe the devs need to get off there ass, and login to the site here and explain whats up and give us a deadline for a patch!!!

I think Crytek are dumasses to be honest from a business sence.

Not harping on the PC guys but the PC gamers are the minority.

Console gamers are the majority.

Yet the PC build was way more polished and has dedicated servers.

Yet the Consoles got mediocre Beta builds with laggy P2P connections.

They under estimated the power of the console market and have severly hurt their new reputation on the consoles.

Well i know 2 people who were going to buy this just yesterday, they ask me about it and i had to tell them both the truth. Awesome game but very weak support for glitches. So now there are 2 less people who are buying C2 on the 360 and are getting portal 2 now... wtf CT???
