I don't know, I think the graphics are pretty good for the amount of detail and action going on. I would compare them to maybe Skyrim, since the models have the same cartoon like quality to them. The Skyrim engine is just a modded version of the original Oblivion engine, and A:CM is using a 5+ year old modded Unreal Engine. I think on consoles they are pretty similar in term of graphical fidelity. What I am getting at is, Skyrim right not have the best graphics ever, but I still thought they were awesome, and they did the job well. I think the same can be said for A:CM. The graphics might not be the best ever, but the work. The brilliant thing is, there is not much difference in graphics from the single player to the multiplayer. I am reminded of the newest Wolfenstein. The singleplayer had great graphics for the time, but the multiplayer looked god awful.
I think the detail in the game is probably better than Far Cry 3. In Far Cry the enemies are all the same, and very bland and muddy looking. I am using Far Cry as an example, since you have recently played it (on your gamer card.) Far Cry had great graphics, (minus all the screen tearing,) but the combat lacked that visual punch. When you would shoot or blow stuff up, the enemies just fall over dead. I would have enjoyed the game a lot more, if you could have blown your enemies to bits like you can in A:CM. A:CM doesn't have the best graphics ever, but it does have the kind of stuff that I think is awesome in a game. I might be of the minority now, but I really enjoy when games have over the top violence in them like A:CM does. I think this game is going to have a gritty old school FPS feeling that I really miss from the games of today. I can't wait.
