isn't it false advertising?
>>
Which one's the bullshot?
>>
>>387678430
Videogames are played by retarded children. They have no concept of "false advertising" and if they were are in no position to take any company to task legally over it
>>
>>387678508
The left one of course.
>>
>>387678523
Fast food companies do it all the time
>>
>>387678587
that's different though
if you order a big mac that's one item that doesn't look like a specific item that was photographed for the advertising, it's going to vary

this is a product that is being advertised as one thing, then the product being released and being something else

>>387678636
I don't think our judges are equipped to handle false advertising cases that revolve around things like polygon counts, texture resolution and number of light sources. How the fuck is mummified ruth bader ginsburg supposed to sort that shit out?

"This screenshot is from a WIP build and doesn't depict the quality of the final product"
IIRC, even when not directly stated, there is some sort of regulation that automatically implies that if screenshots are shown before the final build is sent into production, it is automatically assumed the quality shown can't be taken as the quality of the final build, and this is how companies defends themselves regarding bullshot
>>
>>387678720
Yeah they put a weird shine filter on the model to mimic sweat. It's shit tier
>>
>>387678685
They legally have to use the same ingredients and have it cooked in the same way in an advertising picture but they pick the fluffiest buns and juiciest looking burger and hand place all the toppings to make it look as nice as possible.
>>
>>387678814
By placing the promised product next to the delivered product and seeing that one is a more realistic image than the other?
>>
>>387678830
Great legal defense and it still let's them essentially rob the retarded
>>
>>387678883
Videogame "enthusiasts" on 4chan can't even agree on that, in this thread even. My mom thinks dreamcast games look like real movies.
>>
>>387678869
Iirc those advertisement pics are almost always plastic models instead of real burgers. Not 100% sure about that tho
>>
>>387679108
I've heard that but how could that possibly be legal?
>>
>>387679013
Okay but if you showed your mom the picture in the OP would she be able to tell that they're different looking
>>
>>387679108
I think you're correct actually. They aren't the actual product being sold, just the model of the product presented by plastic and photo doctoring to look perfect
>>
>>387679108
they're not plastic models but they do things like gluing seeds into place on buns and using glue in place of mayo since its photographs nicer and doesn't look as chunky.
>>
>>387679241
Yeah that sounds more likely. As >>387679192 said, they probably circumvent some legal issues with these tricks. Either way they are prime examples of real life bullshots.
>>
>>387678430
YUK
>>
>>387679445
but not really because again like >>387678636 said each object is a different object in a different time in a different place. some are going to look good others wont. it's a consumable object that's made on demand. this is a video game that is being marketed on its graphics and promising that what you see here is what you will play when you buy it
>>
>>387679561
>and promising that what you see here is what you will play when you buy it
Not really, read >>387678830
>>
>>387679608
Ok but that's not the case here. They made a video to show off specifically the new graphics and they were talking about how this is how the new game looks and what went into it.
>>
>>387679695
Was the video shown during development and before the game was finalized?
Were those the graphics they had at the time and were aiming to get those graphics?
If so, it still falls under the same regulations, they were showing a WIP build, therefore not necessarily depicting the quality of the final build.
From a consumer standpoint is bullshit, irritating, and absurd, but legally speaking they're not fooling customers thanks to that regulations.
>>
>>387679882
The video was from 2 weeks ago and yes they were going through and talking about the changes they made this year and how the lighting and models were so much better then proceeded to show the models and lighting

That random block of text doesn't constitute a disclaimer, especially since it's nowhere to be found in relation to anything put out by them. When they explicitly say "heres what the new game looks like" that overrides your "i think if i remember correctly that they might have some kind of loophole" argument
>>
Didn't know it's getting a Switch release.

Roode's gonna be in this, right? I just wanna use his entrance.
>>
>>387680607
its getting a switch release but the OP is ps4
>>
>>387678430
Because the advertisement for release is not a bullshot. As in the final trailers match the game.
You can bullshot all you want for works in progress. You arent selling the unfinished product so bullshotting is fair game.
>>
>>387678430

Some of it looked just like the shots in-game, then under certain lighting stuff looked really off. Also you took a low res pic on the right, so that's not exactly fair either.

Gameplay videos are out to see how it really looks.

Anything in the ring looks ten times worse than anything in the entrances. That's just how they do.

It's an actual burger but there's a whole process behind it.
