Another thing that has been changed between the E3 demo and the retail version: During the plane graveyard fight in the E3 version, the player sprinting into cover would jostle and shift the cover they were up against.

I mean, they were (are) the WORST company at staying true to what they showed at e3. This is known: they’re liars, no shame. This video starts out by pointing out they removed an area from the e3 demo. They used to just downgrade textures. Now they do that, AND cut content. And y’all are like, “Ah! Much better!” Meanwhile EA is releasing AAA games for free (Apex) while updating game like Battlefield for free with maps that are 10x the size of the previous biggest Battlefield map, which was 10x the size of a usual cod map. Battlefield just released an update, for free, with 10 new vehicles, and a map that is as big as about ONE HUNDRED call of duty maps. Screw it, we’ll call it 75. For free. But y’all are like, “YES! Ubisoft only cut some of the content they promised!” Greedy EA amirite?

[@mrrainbow3356]

@@FUMoonMoney i got to say that you are very wrong, this was valid before 2016. Ubisoft has been trying to improve its reputation since then. Seriously, Ubisoft is a mediocre company, it isn't good nor bad. The reason why Apex is free because Respawn knew how to market the game, it's a spin-off titanfall br game. The game itself has a massive playerbase and doesn't cost nearly as much as making bigger AAA titles such as... well... titanfall 2. However, Division 2 is a much huger game withdense mechanics and gameplays so it cost a lot more to be made. $60 for free future content? Sound very nice. Btw the lighting in the reveal trailer looks better because it has a pinky tone so it looks more cinematic. However, the lighting in the real game is more realistic.

[@scrwd4568]

i would love for them to change the flare mechanics. In the game before, you can only use the flare in blackzone, and only in 1 location with enemies just spawning in. You can literally hide without aggro-ing anyone, then extract. I would love to see using the flare as a mechanic to call in either ammo backup, or call in other players from around the area, so that others can see the flare, decide to help or not, then run towards the location instead of spawning in, or having to meet others in hubs. In addition, enemies can also see these flares, so they move towards it, like increasing your aggro range instead of spawning enemies in. This would make the player be careful whether sending a flare would be the best idea or not.

[@anemoneyas]

Most of the changes seem like legitimate things that would happen during development rather than the E3 trailer being completely staged. Glad they've stopped lying as blatantly.

I use a controller on my PC all the time as it allows you to more smoothly pan the camera for nice looking clips.

[@voided_reality6863]

I'm noticing more changes in story and placement elements than graphical. I think some of the stuff you've pointed out missing or different were just show pieces for the demo and were never meant to be in the game. The Jungle at the beginning and the attack on the capitol in the end of the video for main examples. (Although I would really love to have them reopen the jungle part.) P.S. at 6:15 the piece of the plane was just moved up and to the right, it's not removed.

[@IndianTelephone]

To be honest, most of the things you mentioned being removed from Retail, feels like were placed strategically in E3 demo to showcase everything in the game, in a seamless flow. Graphically, nothing is a downgrade as far as I can tell, except for lighting changes, which as you suggested might be a case of the weather system. E3 footages have always been heavily color graded for a while now, so Light and Color comparison is moot.
