The thing that gets me about all the resolution nonsense is that I'm pretty sure that MS started it.

I mean its like talking up bring a gun to a knife fight, then bring a knife. Being surprised that Sony brought a semi-automatic.

sigfredod4598d ago

and the worse is that the fight begin in a plain long corridor with nothing to take cover lol

P0werVR4598d ago (Edited 4598d ago )

It would be better if it were native 1080p. But either way it's going to be fun.

We'll see, what comes with time is change.

Ausbo4598d ago

good analogy actually. This concerns me a bit, but im confident that the developers will eventually nail down 1080p on xbox

Godmars2904598d ago

And the thing is it looks like they'll be able to do such faster on the PS4.

Kinda the whole point in being concerned.

GribbleGrunger4598d ago (Edited 4598d ago )

The problem is that hitting 1080p is only the very basic definition of what we expect from a next gen game. Lighting, reflections, shadows, physics, particle effects, AI, animation, density of environments and draw distances are what next gen games are all about. A lot of PS4 exclusive games are already at 1080p AND have all those next gen touches.

3rd party devs have a very difficult decision to make in the next few years: favour the PS4 or risk parity (in effects not resolution) and be left looking last gen by Sony's 1st party devs. There will come a time when resolution alone won't fool people into believing a game is truly next gen.

BallsEye4598d ago

I'm wondering why so much talk about resolution? I can appreciate high res yes but if you upscale to 1080p a nintendo 64 game it will still look like sh!t. Why not talk about shadow resolutions, lighting effects and other stuff that make the game actually realistic? So what will look more realistic.. a 720p movie or mario 64 upscaled to 1080p? People forget graphics is not just about pixel count.

joab7774598d ago

Not to defend b/c there is a difference but its not like its gonna look like a 720p game from this gen. CoD will still look very similar to ps4, same as B4 etc. I can guarantee u that no one will b talking about how last gen titanfall is when they play it. They will b talking about how amazing it is. I may love Sony, but I will want to buy an xbone just to play this game, whatever the native resolution is.

That being said, it does say something that a team working on an xbone couldn't find a work around yet.

will the game run and play smoothly? will it be an enjoyable experience? will the servers be stress tested before it's launched?

if all these are answered with a yes then i'm happy.

would i be happier with 1080p yeah slightly i suppose but it's not a deal breaker for me... my mates are getting the X1 and their PCs are muck so i'll be playing with them on the X1 720p or 1080p

VENOMACR12274597d ago

Exactly! I highly doubt anyone would cancel their preorder or not buy the game because it's not in 1080. As long as it runs great, looks great, and is fun to play, 720/1080 isn't a big deal. This whole thing of 1080/720 is blown way out of proportion. Yes, 1080 is better, yes next gen should be in 1080, but is it a deal breaker? No, at least not for me.

MasterCornholio4598d ago

I was expecting it to be 900P but 720P seems a bit low to me for a next gen console with a last gen looking game.

Sayai jin4598d ago

I thought the dev mentioned it would by 720P a few months ago.

MasterCornholio4598d ago

The developer refused to make a comment on the resolution but he stressed that a solid 60FPS is what they wanted.

"a bit low to me for a next gen console with a last gen looking game."

^This is the biggest red flag if this game ends up running @720p on the XBOX ONE. This appears to be the same engine they used as Infinity Ward. I haven't done any research as to whether or not I'm correct, but from everything I saw of TitanFall, it looks and plays like COD with mechs.

Sayai jin4598d ago

I think you are right about the game play, but I can not attest to this because I have not played it. With that said, it is getting rave reviews from the industry.

PFFT4598d ago

Yeah......highly doubtful!

urwifeminder4598d ago

Pc version wont but hey I may get both just to play with xb1 friends.

XDefiant and former CoD lead quits the games industry after Ubisoft killed their shooter

Mark Rubin, the lead designer of Ubisoft’s now-dead free-to-play shooter XDefiant, has left the games industry following his project’s death.

Goodguy01365d ago

Going to ubisoft was your mistake

TheColbertinator364d ago

So much wrong with Xdefiant. At one point they started using the worst ideas for their game and FPS fans saw it in the previews.

SpacedDuck364d ago

No offense but if Xdefiant represents your best the industry is better off for it.

thorstein363d ago

"We had other issues though as well that we tried to be transparent about. For one we had crippling tech debt using an engine that wasn’t designed for what we were doing...Another issue we had was having the right resources to make content for the game."

Ubi set them up for failure out of the gate. And he says they had stuff in the pipes that should have been at launch means Ubi rushed it out and the devs didn't.

Ex-CoD producer tells devs to “be more like Larian, less like Activision”

Rubin: "Thank you! A lot of games, Call of Duty included just focus on how to make the most money possible out of the player base. They rely heavily on FOMO marketing and EOMM matches. But I feel like it used to be just more about the quality of the game which would drive players to play. And that means making the game more player centric. i.e. less engagement based tactics and higher quality experiences for the players. Better maps, modes etc. In other words your game should have a high player count because it's good and people want to play it rather than people playing it because the game has a $250M marketing budget. Everything is just said is very simplified as it would take too long to really go into it. One last simple analogy. Be more like Larian, less like Activision."

Sonyslave3401d ago

Lol the producer of xdviant a cod clone in every shape and way, including the micro & fomo is piss off his game getting shut down.

Sonyslave3401d ago

Yet you work for another scummy company like Ubisoft that fight to flood single player games with useless battle passes, predatory microtransactions and to take away player ownership of the games they pay for.

This twitter post exposed this fool
