Likened to the Nintendo DS, among more colorful language, the community is\u2026 less than delighted. Call of Duty and PlayStation have a deal in place which means PS players get access to more stuff, and earlier stuff, than their PC and Xbox counterparts. Such is the case with the 2021 Vanguard Alpha, which is exclusive to PS4 and PS5. Unfortunately, while Alphas are usually expected to look less polished than their final product, the return to PlayStation graphics has left streamers and fans heated. One clip in particular has gotten the ire of players, with people reacting and claiming the graphics look like they\u2019re from a Nintendo DS or the year 2000. Above all else, many just seems uninspired by their first look. what are these graphics why does it look like a DS game \u2014 \u20a5\ud835\ude26\ud835\udc2b\ud835\ude24\u1efe \ud83d\udca5\u2614\ufe0f (@horriblemercy) August 27, 2021 As you can see in the clip, the graphics aren\u2019t particularly impressive. This can be attributed to this being an Alpha as well as the perils of Twitter compression, but also to the PlayStation exclusivity. That latter point has been explicitly questioned by popular CoD content creators like JGOD, who called it \u201cinsane\u201d for the first look at CoD 2021 to be a look at limited console visuals. Insane that we people can only show off\/see Console Gameplay for people&#8217;s 1st impressions of Vanguard. When it looks better graphically than MW2019\/WZ, but you would never know from what is being posted. Should be tons of 1440\/4k60 120 Fov gameplay being posted, but no \ud83e\udd26\u2642\ufe0f\ud83e\udd26\u2642\ufe0f\ud83e\udd26\u2642\ufe0f \u2014 James \u2013 JGOD (@JGODYT) August 27, 2021 Concerned over the impression people are getting from gameplay, JGOD reinforces that the game actually a graphical improvement over its predecessors: \u201cIt looks better graphically than MW2019 and Warzone, but you would never know from what is being posted.\u201d Bemoaning the inability to play and share the game in 1440p or 120 FOV, JGOD was sure to comfort people in the replies that yes, this game looks \u201cbetter than CoD has ever looked graphically.\u201d While many players aren\u2019t bothered by the Alpha\u2019s presentation, seeing it as what it is \u2014 a test of bugs and gameplay, a loud group still isn\u2019t pleased. The overarching theme seems to be: a game on 2013\u2019s PS4 shouldn\u2019t look like it\u2019s from 2004\u2019s Nintendo DS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CoD players flame Vanguard\u2019s graphics: \u2018It looks like Nintendo DS\u2019 ActivisionThe Call of Duty community has had mixed reactions to Vanguard\u2019s Alpha, with the loudest roasting the game\u2019s console graphics.
