Would you trade new ingame content for an engine upgrade?

Nobody can say whether it is spaghetti or not as long as they do not publish the sourcecode. Maybe it is not spaghetti and they simply made some architectural decisions in the past, which are not so optimal today. The game was compatible with the PS3. And the PS3 architecture is vastly different to PS4/PS5/PC etc.



I guess they have most textures in a much higher resolution. This is how textures are usually made: create them in a high resolution and then scale them down. It is how MIP mapping works. But if they have deleted the high res textures then it will be time consuming to recreate them, yes.

It was said that they made them low res to begin with , quite a glaring mistake on their part , and done to speed up the re purposing of the game after 1.0 (and built around the ps3 not PC) hence why they cant dedicate staff to create a whole 2.0-6.0 bank of higher quality textures for all assets

If they already had a bank of 4096 textures we'd of had them inserted already , at the very least as an optional dl pack or preinstalled and an in game option to enable them (prob for PC only) with certain requirements to ber able to use said option ,like 8gb ram plus 4gig Vram min etc etc

They could make a community contest for this like the contest for weapons. I guess, many fans would recreate the textures with a much higher resolution.
