bit tech were treated to a behind closed door look at UT2007, and so far they arent too impressed with the graphics.

Our first thoughts were that the graphics looked disappointing. It's clear that the new engine has some real potential - we only have to look at the jaw-dropping Gears of War for that - but on the PC, in this build at least, things weren't so hot. Despite running on a top-end machine with dual graphics, the frame rate was ropey and there was clearly no room for anti-aliasing to banish the jaggies that plagued the picture. The whole thing looked like it was lacking in the performance needed to up the image quality - clearly, Epic needs to do some work on this before release, otherwise, expect to have 7900 GTX SLI as the minimum specs.

the rest of the game however sounds spunktacular......they just need to sort the performance out and it will be set

Out before Christmas? We wouldn't bet on it, but we certainly hope so.

DX10 optimized?

I don't know, this doesn't look too bad to me.

So this game isn't coming fall of this year and has been pushed back to next year?

of course renders and cg movies/pictures are gonna look good, they almost always do. show us pics of actual in-game footage.

Saw some screen shots the other day on a games site and wasn't that impressed. It looked good, no doubt, but was hoping for more. Remember maybe a year or so ago on a page talking about UT2007 there was a pic of a ridiculously detailed skaarj, and maybe that level of graphics has been stuck in my head, making current screenshots seem a letdown. The shots I saw were a bit too cluttered looking as well, and could have looked ugly no matter how well rendered. Still looking forward to the actual game though.

as long as the graphics can be scaled back, yet still look nice and give great performance (like ut2k4 and even hl2/css) and most importantly, have awesome awesome awesome gameplay...i wouldnt mind ut2k7 looking "meh".
