Just Cause 4 VS Red Faction Guerrilla - Destruction & Physics Comparison 

Just Cause: *Explosion Master* Red Faction Guerilla: *Destruction Physics Master*

Imagine Just Cause with Red Faction style destruction.

(6:15) I used to reload a save file and destroy these two buildings over and over again, and had a lot of fun doing it. I'd try charges in different places, then run inside and try to make it to the top floor while the building was falling apart. Or jetpack up on the roof and sledge those front pillars straight down. Good times, and honestly I'm eager to pick up the remaster at some point, even though it's not a huge graphical leap, it still looks cleaned up with a bit more fidelity. 10 years later, and I don't think there's another game that has come anywhere close to RFG's Geomod 2.0 engine. I would guess it's because we expect games to keep looking exponentially better - higher resolution, higher texture quality, better shadows, better performance, better AA, better post-processing fx - and there just aren't any games with any render budget left over to handle this complex level of destruction calculation on top of it.

3:24 lmao.. poor guy didnt even see it coming

Sigh, if only Pandemic didn't go belly up. That way, we could've gotten Mercenaries 3 and more, adding to the "destructible sandbox" genre of games.

Red Faction is a Stress reliever, when using the hammer lol

Red faction guerrilla is amazing.never gets old

Omg I love red faction's details with destruction

Hellooo!! 2009 vs 2018 game!

9:53 xDDDDD

Red Factipn with new techonlogy would be great all they need to fix is those bugs with the debris floatting and lagging around and make the falling effect a bit slower so it can look more powerful like on real life scale.

The physics and destruction of Red Faction needs to be implemented into Just Cause 5 when they make it. You can do so much in the games but the physics and realism is way off. The explosions and overall visuals are better in Just Cause but they seriously need to fix the basic physics of destruction.

Both better then the shitty crackdown 3

In Just Cause things seems made out of plastic has not weight to it

The only other game that’s comparable to RFG’s destruction is probably Mercenaries 2 world in Flames

lets be fair, while just cause 4 has great looking explosions, they seem to think every explosive should be a gas explosion. red faction remarstered seems to know the difference between a demo charge and a car explosion at least even if the gas explosions in it aren't as pretty as jc 4. its a thoughtfully produced game whereas jc 4 while being fun, is like a shitty action movie put together by a gaggle of tweens

I still cant believe how bad the water is tho!😂 Great video idea!! I really like the destruction in red faction, Also, based on another video, i think explosions are better in jc3

Both games are awesome

Red Faction is better in terms of destruction IMHO. I didn't get ANY feeling of weight or devastation when it came to Just Cause 4s destruction. It just looked like cardboard coming apart at times. The explosions do look better in JC4, I will concede that, but in terms of the overall presentation, I'd have to give it to RF:G.

Red faction has got good destruction physics but the explosion wise jc4 is better

You just gotta love how JC4 has some of the worst performance issues on older hardware, while a fucking 360 game released in the late 2000s can kick its ass with half the hardware available. Istg gaming is just regressing, we hit the peak awhile ago and it’s just downhill from here (outside of the indie scene)

5:03 dat explosion plus the sound tho

The difference to me is. Just Cause things have 2 states, intact, and broken. Once broken, they collapse beautifully, but causing destruction is trivial. Most RFG things must be broken to the point of structural collapse, which makes the destruction much more satisfying and less trivial (important for a game centered on demolition). But as a result, things sometimes defy physics, since the code doesn't cover every case of reduction of structural integrity.

Im like 2 hours in red faction. Cant wait to unlock the new weapons. The game can be repetative but destruction is just so much fun.

Red faction guerrilla remastered is very better I'm think, CAUSE THE DAMN GAME HAS RELEASED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 2009!2009 WTF, AND THE PSYISICS ARE aMaZiNg!!!!!!! But of course Just cause 4 is a very good game!!*-*

9:54 HE FUCKED UP. NANI!

How dare you not fly a massive cargoplane into a bridge, no wonder too many people prefer red faction.

Ffs just give us some map mods for rfg... at least... please

Red faction was 10 years ago that what crackdown 3 should have been 6 months ago And how it was presented 3 years ago good job michaelsoft Slow clap

when I am ever stressed out I just hop on my PS4 and play red faction reMARSterd. And I think when it comes to enjoyment. Red faction. when it comes to destruction. Red faction. and if you don't think red faction does not have good exploshions. Get the terobaric rocket.

Red Faction seems have more weight all the objects.. apparently.

Great video, i'd love to see more

I want Squad explosions with BFBC2 destruction.

Ayyy lmao let’s not talk about the incredible destruction of Arkham knight

Metal Gear Rising was originally gonna be this destructable, they just didn't have the time. Still the parts you can destroy have the smoothest physics since Red Faction. I think it had potential to be as good if the time was given. Just Cause is good at explosions, but its destruction physics will never hold up to Red Faction.

Red faction guerrilla is the best game I've ever played. I wish pandemic didn't die. They would have been able to do some amazing things with current technology.

Red Faction would be the winner, as you can flatten a base. In just cause you can only destroy the towers and gas cans, the concrete structures would still be standing.

In Red Faction things fall into more pieces but it's not necessarily more realistic. For example huge steal beams that splinter like toothpicks. The material doesn't really behave realisticly. Also the single pieces glitch around on the ground and cause problems. That's not the case in Just Cause 4.

Could you IMAGINE Battlefield with THIS level of destruction?

I literraly flew an "antonov" into a satellite dish and nothing happened

Both games are great and have great physics i have red faction but l would love to play just cause 4

just cause 4 looks really fun. but i wont lie. they just dont make games like they used to. focus on the fun, not on the mun.ey

just cause is almost laughable at. just cause is a chaotic and fun game.

Coooool

I have red faction

I love Red Faction It was one of My First game i ever played

Now compare them to Crackdown 3. JK, Crackdown 3 doesn't have destruction physics.

The fps on just cause is horrible rf g was better game

Imagine Just Cause explosions + Red faction Physics 🔥🔥🔥🔥

It's abundantly clear that rfg has the fat super destruction engine. The reason why everything isn't completely destructible in jc4, is because it's only BASED off the havok physics engine, but for some reason doesn't utilize the geomod 2 destruction engine like in rfg. In rfg, LITERALLY EVERY MANMADE OBJECT CAN BE COMPLETELY LEVELED, EXCEPT FOR THAT ONE GIANT TOWER, I would imagine because of hardware limitations. But that's forgivable considering that rfg came out in 2009. JC4 came out TEN WHOLE YEARS LATER, there is really no excuse for the partial destruction, aside from perhaps they couldn't get the license for geomod 2.0

3:55 was so satisfying

Wait I could have sworn you can't destroy concrete bridges in jc4? Was it patched in? I've not played much since release.

Very nice

god..... specs of your pc????? 150 fps on just cause 4 insane

The sad thing is, Red Faction is a 10 year old game that runs on Ps3 and Xbox 360 and has awesome destruction with real physics... Just Cause on the other hand allways trys to make things bigger....and not better.

Teardown has the hype now, but RFG had it already.

Which Console was the gameplay from ?

What about crackdown 3

I love Just Cause 4 !

Tem a gravidade do Planeta Marte que deve ser menor,mas é uma hipótese. 🙃

idk, RF:G wasn't as good as JC:4. My personal opinion.

i wish i had enough money for red faction

Just cause destruction is real weightless and few from what red faction offers

The physics in red faction are similar to 7 days to die

lol earth vs mars

RED FACTION BETTER

Dawg I hate that I just bought just cause 3 and 4 just to find out you can’t take down buildings that’s so fucking lame

Just Cause can only aspire to be Red Faction.

Ngl red faction would be way better if buildings respawned

😘😘😘👍👍👍👌

Lmao, if you stood that close to a tornado in real life, you'd get sucked in super quick, it literally doesn't matter if you're the world's heaviest man. Tornadoes have been known to literally pick up tanks and busses, as if they were feather-light.

Nothing compares to Crackdown 3

this is dumb red faction came out 10 years ago

Plz bf5 have this...

Red faction 😊😊😊😊😊😊

At least for Just Cause 4 half of the structure doesn’t phase through the ground.

Just cause 4 environments feels like made out of cardboard papers it's so trash

Red faction buildings just melt into building goo. Not realistic at all.

Red faction Guerrilla’s physics really hold up

I was going to get this on games pass coz I enjoyed 2 and 3 but this is just awful! Basically just cause:saints row

E

Just Cause 4 😍💞💜👍😊 |
