Eh, I'm sorry, but I'm not very impressed by the reflective water. Firstly, the water looks like some sort of gel instead of water and secondly I can barely see stuff reflecting in it, mostly some extra lighting.
I was expecting something more along the lines of the awesome reflective water in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRmk0hZam7A
I hope it looks much better in a dynamic representation.

It's nice to see progress & I'm looking forward to next week's patch, but I've got to admit I like these screenies from the erm... "old new engine" more: http://www.athenpaladins.org/aonewengine/index.html
How long until it looks like that?... If ever?

And many other alts
Has FC confirmed that the "going on live" order will be Balance => starter experience rewamp => new engine ?
if so ... why do we get news about the last of the chain and not about the other 2 ?
And why do we have the feeling that engine is "almost ready" and reblance went to paperbin ?

Tip #743: As noted in Tip #244, tea bags have an infinite variety of uses. However, there's always one jerk who will want to give you crap over drinking tea. Particularly if in a new town, use this as an opportunity to assert yourself. Any drunken idiot can win a bar fight. It takes a real man to win a bar fight while enjoying a cup of Earl Grey.

that video from 4 years ago seems like its better than the present gfx engine. wtf
Definitely a 220 engi pet, a dood holding double-barrel cytoglobic multi-distress inhibitor, and lastly I see parsed playing guitar hero. CLose maybe? yes? hehe Love Tir
It better look like that preview video or nicerSnap!
And damn! That vid is over 3.5yrs oldThe whole reason I still wait around for it with high hopes. But as we all know, hope is futile.. we are the borg.
I've got a headache.....
As for the water reflection (or lack thereof) I can see some correct reflection of the Truth Tower and adjoining building in the water, and in the old video the Tir water is not particularly reflective either (fitting with the old storyline background to the Tir water situation).
If that is the Dreamworld engine, many of us know what the water can look like under DirectX 9 and what is in those pics is not quite there yet. You guys need to be careful what you are showing. Review that old video before posting pics that might be compared side-by-side because, at this stage, they -will- be compared and anything that appears lacking in the current pics will be pounced on if some explanation is not given. IE, if you have some effects not yet turned on in a pic, say so and save yourselves a lot of forum grief.

That looks like SLIME WATER! And slime water haz no reflections, therefor, good job!
Compared to how it currently looks, that's several year's worth of improvements in those two screenies. We're now looking at a 2007 game instead of a 2001 one
That nanomage's head... the proportions o.O
The upper Opi head has some weird underbite going on but the lower Opi head is looking good.
Infinitely better in the old pix.
lol, was thinking the same thing. otherwise its obviously either a flamethrower texture revamp, or an alien flamethrower thats yet to come. if it has nothing to do with aliens, then why the green hue?
wtf happened to my avatars eyebrows?
I used to listen to Dubstep in the 90's... every time I connected to the internet.
too asian
Just log your 220.
Oh, someone pressed on the ambient occlusion button
The radius seems to be a tad too big though.
