Dead Island - Now also Redux

How?
I'm already at 18 hours and I'm only in Act II.

 

Can you tell me how you disabled bloom? Or at least tell me how to reduce it please. You would make my day sir...

But hum your screenshots above... you put some girl pictures in there. They look kinda young to me

Dunno. I did all sidequests too. But I admit that I didn't really explore tho.

 

Actually that looks a good amount better. No bloom is nice.

 

What does it normally look like bloom wise, i've not saw any pics that were that bad so far.

Being that it is on an island, i would want at least enough to make it look like it was actually bright and sunny.

 

IMHO the bloom is a bit too much. I would tone it down a bit. I had to reduce the gamma a bit so the bloom doesn't bright things too much.

 

Suppose it could get annoying, i just like things sunny to look over-bright, maybe a set of in-game shades

This is another game i bought this month that is still sitting in cellophane, does look alot of fun, but like to sit things out, games always get better a month or so afterwards.

 

Well this game is pretty ****ing bad ass. I'm really liking it. Love how you can chop off the limbs of the zombies and how specific the hits are. Blowing them up with propane canisters is also a blast(pun intended).
My only qualm is the inventory. Damn its terrible.

BEFORE TWEAKS




AFTER TWEAKS

 

gonna be honest, i don't see any difference

 

Any chance of similar pics mate, might be the fact i'm on the laptop and the screen is not the greatest, as well as the locations being different, but it looks better before the tweaks to me.

 

i crash every time I go into the door at the hotel with the two big zombie guys who knock you down guarding it. I think its a story quest too. Damn it..

 

I saw more natural/vivid blue colours and less grey vibe to it (tweaked pics)


Stone Gargoyle did you make these pics at same conditions/time of day?

 

It looks so much better without bloom. I just couldn't stand it. It was overdone.

 

I still think it looked better before lol.

I live in mostly sun free country, and even here it becomes a bloom filed, overbright place when the sun is out, especially when i am out the shade of the city.

Personal preference though, as i would hazard a guess i am one of the few Nvidia users who sets digital vibrance to under 50%, rather than cranking it higher.

 

It does look a touch better without the bloom...but wouldn't say it looked bad with it before either.

 

bloom and desaturate on


bloom and desaturate off



latter is far better i think

 

Now that shows off it off much better. Agreed.

 

Need to get off this laptop and back to my desktop i think, i seem to be the only one who prefers the former, as the later seems to look too colourful and lacking of any sunlight, which looks messed up for a game on a place with lots of sun.

 

i agree with you Redemption and i'm on a desktop. neither looks really bad though
