Hi all! Empires doesn't have many good screenshots. If you all could check your folders for high quality screenshots of gameplay from Spectator (or take some!), you'll be helping me so much and might even have your picture on the Steam page or UI or any of the dozens of things we need gameplay shots for. I'm also going to ask for videos so that people who want to make Empires trailers can. Stop reading and get dumping pls
i only have screenshot of bugs or nonsense or the ones you already use, but i took them intentionally to be used to promote empires. join a server, find an interesting spot, mash the screenshot key, exit the game, go through hundreds of screenshots and pick the most spectacular. the below are the best out of idk i think 300 or smthg screenshot. i already posted them somewhere, but have them again thought there would be more :\
I will try to get some more screenshots and perhaps clips in 4k, Empires keeps resetting the resolution to 2560x1440 though.
@Lollum Damn, those are fucking nice. If you could get some action shots from gameplay it would be great. I think some of the recent scrims have demos you can use
Here are some of Lazysbums event using varbles new map, which is really nice. If some of the angles are shit you can try learn how to use the demo editor, which looks impossible from the valve wikis guide on it But basically if you just go through the "Events" forum you can find a bunch of spectator filmed demos to get good action shots out of. https://www.dropbox.com/s/gvgqicl7avh7bzz/scrimkazakh.dem?dl=0 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2644783/demos/slaughteredPUG.dem https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2644783/demos/kingPUG.dem
Ill get you some good ones. Really should focus on the combined arms aspect though, that is what will draw people, along with being on the new good looking maps so it entices people to download and try it. Also, perhaps on First Launch highlight the tutorial and RECOMMEND players do it to learn, write that it has a steep learning curve so those who read and download will be prepared.
Tama has done a great job of updating the Steam Store page with the little we have but WE STILL NEED MORE SPECTATOR SHOTS, folks. Focus on; -combined arms -tank combat Nobody likes some engineer building a turret #827. Please go into the demos and get good material! Or just in game! Make sure it's spectator though.
Here's some screenshots I have taken. I consider them to be good, usually combined arms/combat oriented which is what is needed. I particularly like the Grenadier with the RPG ready to fire one.
Yeah, those are quite nice. Some will need to be cropped, but thanks for doing that man. Sad reminder in the close up shots that the Empires models aren't so bad themselves, it just the map textures are so low quality that everything stands out against them.
