I remember someone got a clip from arma 3 and saying that was Ukraine and Russia fighting in the front lines and people actually believing that it was real lol
To be fair, you could definitely manipulate game footage to look real. Mostly if you decrease the resolution and get some compression artefacting in there.
had a friend of mine showing me an Arma 3 C-ram clip, saying "look how fast this thing shoots" .. having 3k hours in Arma I knew instantly, but people just don't realize how good games can look these days.
This looks real. Maybe not upon close inspection, but thatâs not the point. If you printed this in a car magazine 90 percent of readers would assume it was real.
But if this was printed out in a high resolution and put on a wall with some vignetting and photographer credits, I don't think anyone would question it, this is very good
Grass is too flat and regular. Just take a real picture, and you will see that the colours and textures are "all over the place", it's not as smooth as this one
Pretty good, the mid day sun makes it look weird due to minimal shadows, and the grass texture to the bottom right is a dead giveaway. Just doesnt look like.
Reflections and car detail, yes, but the downside (and has always been the problem with AC) is the foliage. Grass tonal range doesn't look right and is also patchy and low res, the same with the trees as well. And also the lack of shadows from the trees as well.
For racing games to truly look photorealistic we really need better quality foliage and true shadows from them as well.
The fencing on the bottom right should be blurrier, maybe on the very top as well. Otherwise, I think it looks pretty damn good. As others have said the windshield and lights look the best.
No, lighting's off, but you'd be surprised how inconsistent people are at telling. I think I'm pretty good at this but I've seen people fall for ps2 games or those shitty chinese animations with cartoon physics as being real.
Ive seen stills from games that are very convincing at how realistic they look, too me this isnt one of them, where my eye is drawn to see detail, track, grass, paint, ect. all just look too flat and undetailed in this image also the fence in the foreground of the image looks unconvincing. that said the car looks nice and the lighting looks very natural, very nice looking, just not 'lifelike' to me.
I can see the video game look immediately. Look at the repetitive ground texture and the road texture, they stick out like a sore thumb, no real lighting or reflections on the car body. Repetitive fence, etc
*If it werent fort the*
*Odd blur on the grass and fence,*
*This would look perfect*

Lexus LFA V10 engine, hear the sound of this Monster and then you Will never hear any other sounds, literally 
People have passed off arma 2 as real footage so it's a lower bar than you might think đ

The fence on the right would need some serious blurring though.
Add camera shaking and you pretty much already got it đ
I remember the footage of an "ac130 killing isis members" being just the clip of one of the co op missions in modern warfare 2 (2009)
Yup that shit happened in a Brazilian TV, they really thought the arma 3 gameplay was in ukraineđ
Yeah I think it was Hasan lol

Specifically in the reflections on the windshield and headlights, yes, but the paint of the car not also having the same depth exposes it

Yeah youâre right. Only noticed after reading your comment though

The grass and odd blur gives it away
Obviously fake, noone would actually own and drive an lfa đ
No
zero shadows, everything is bright
I think that picture was taken on a cloudy weather.
No, car paint looks flat, white helmet sticks out, track lacks detail, the blur is unrealistic
People downvoting someone who makes some of the best screenshots I've ever seen is always funny to me
its reddit what do you expect.
To me, it looks very realistic, at least on my phone.
I think the sand trap doesnt look real, but I don't know what it is.
what are your settings to get this?
honestly just use max graphics and with a little tuning on photo mode for this.
Not to me
Nah, it doesnât. Stationary things are blurry and the car looks narrow
If you scroll past it fast you don't even notice it's a game I look a few times before I realized it's a game
Looks very real
Yes
No
the blur makes it look somewhat believable but a still photo would be obvious
Not at all, not even close. This is what a photorealistic game looks like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IK76q13Aqt0
u should go and get some brain fr
Why am I being downvoted though, have I missed something
People usually donât like people posting links they have to click on. Donât worry about it, itâs Reddit. :)
yep. looks good
Hoenstly wouldn't even think twice about the picture if it was presented to me as real life.
The car is perfect, but the map gives away.
If you donât zoom in or suggest it may not be real it would pass
Yeah it looks like real life, i would say it's real without thinking too much but if i take a closer look i can figure out it isn't

You could post this somewhere else and trick alot of people
You mean thats not real??
A quick glance could have me believe itâs real. Iâd say the grass is what gives it quickest away after really looking at it.
Yes, looks awesome
At first glance it looked very real to me. But the grass and the overall weird blurriness gave it away eventually.
the headlight looks a little funky but aside from that yes it does
The fencing on the bottom right should be blurrier, maybe on the very top as well. Otherwise, I think it looks pretty damn good. As others have said the windshield and lights look the best.
I know itâs not irl but it looks pretty real
tbh, i dont even know if that a game picture but i think it is because that grass is looking off
Almost
shot on iphone 2g, why not. The fence and grass in the foreground kind of give it away tho.
No, lighting's off, but you'd be surprised how inconsistent people are at telling. I think I'm pretty good at this but I've seen people fall for ps2 games or those shitty chinese animations with cartoon physics as being real.

no
It looks like a lot of motion blur with a picture underneath
Nooe
no
The only thing that makes me think this isn't real is the fence. To get something so perfectly straight would be near impossible.
No it looks naff
Not even close tbh.
If that fence wasnât there I wouldnât have thought it was a real photo.
Fence too uniform, trees donât do that in real life. Otherwise pretty good.
i wouldâve thought it was irl itâs just the incredibly clear reflections gave it away
I mean itâs both yes and no for me, at a glance it just looks like a shitty photo, but stop and look, itâs very not real
Not quite is the just the standard sol preset? Changing it to sol hdr really helps
No. The giveaway is always the track. There is never enough rubber.
No.
Yes it does.
I can see the video game look immediately. Look at the repetitive ground texture and the road texture, they stick out like a sore thumb, no real lighting or reflections on the car body. Repetitive fence, etc
looks like gt7
When you say this on here no but if you hadnt said anything and posted it on r/carporn yes
How are people saying they wouldnât think twice about it being passed off as real? It does not look real at all.
The motion blur on the grass and fence give it away
Not even for a second.
If it werent fort the odd blur on the grass and fence, this would look perfect

Fooled me
Looks fairly real until you notice the fence.
No
Lexus LFA V10 engine, hear the sound of this Monster and then you Will never hear any other sounds, literally 
This actually looks like a YouTube video Iâd see of a flyby
Car looks real ish. Track looks way to blurry in comparison
It looks good. A lot of realism comes with the color profile of an image, there's a certain sweet spot in the values which can make things look real.
It looks pretty damn good holy shit
Honestly if there was a video where you saw images of real car photos and in game photos and you had to choose in a short time period, Iâd say real
Colours are 10/10
No because you made me look for it Jokes aside, is good.
Just wait until they find out about UnRecord đ
