Hi there!

Guess what we've got for you this week? An exclusive screenshot, just for the community.



As this is a forum exclusive, we request that you do not repost this image anywhere (fansites: links to this post are fine) until we post this to our Official Facebook page later this week (Wednesday).

This will allow the screenshot to remain exclusive, and give you all something fun to discuss! Who is this guy? Where's he going? Where did he come from?

Enjoy! I'll be interested to see the speculation...

Wow, that environment looks great.

Looks to me he drew the short straw at the mine and he's heading back to town to pick up lunch.

That really does look amazing. Hopefully he's camping some town gate, that would be awesome. :p

Wow, beautiful landscape, well done on that. I so want to set up an ambush by hiding behind those rocks up there.

I'm guessing what he's wearing is light armor, it doesn't look like it would have servos, or even much in the way of shields. And he's only armed with a puny looking pistol. Could this be the noob gear?

Also, it looks like there is some good detail on the face, it's even go appropriate shadows. In fact, his body and the trees behind him also have appropriate shadows, that's pretty cool.

I am guessing that is a graphic bug on the rocks in the background. It looks like a dark patch and a line going down the rock.

Also the sky seems kinda funny...

That looks like quality compression when they made it into a JPG, I'm guessing the full quality version was deemed too large a picture to post for download times?

(Would be great to see the full quality version  Smiley  )


I wonder if rocks like those would be deemed cover or fall under partial cover and let you blast people through them.

While I lament the lack of UI to spy, wow! The environment and characters look AMAZING! Hope it looks this good in motion, too. Tongue

Looks like Primus from the main site. At least a similar helmet but wihout the mantel.

Examining the image makes me realize that I can't recall any iconography being released. Are there no logos attributed to Continoma? No symbols for Noir or badges for any other faction?

It's good to see a screenshot that includes a character's face.  The landscape, specifically the rock formations, looks great.  The lighting and shadowing makes it appear as if the sun is just breaking through cloud cover.  As Joker pointed out, the sky looks off - digital in appearance.  Overall, it's a beautiful screenshot with plenty of detail.

I think Primus would look more impressive than that, I still say this is probably noob gear.

He wasn't saying it was Primus, he was just saying the head gear looks similar. As for it being newb gear who know...

Im sure your right and the size was just to big and the quality was downed a little while it was put into JPEG format. Overall though this is a great screenshot.

Above average graphics, don't like the face graphics much but it's a zoomed out picture.
I have to wonder though, is this taken with maximum graphic settings?

Why wouldn't it be on max settings? Also, keep in mind that a lot of graphical tweaking can happen during beta.
