There are about 50% more pixels actually, it's a lot more significant than the 'P' rating suggests. There's some GIF's of Black Flag knocking around showing that 1080P is significantly more detailed and less blurry.
I do agree with your point though, every man and his dog has a 1080P display nowadays so Ubisoft should make the effort to utilise PS4 fully.
I suppose what they say might be the truth if both versions were developed in 900P, the issue is that THEY DIDN'T DO A SIMPLE RESOLUTION INCREASE for the console capable of 1080P.
If they're CPU limited then that is a reasonable excuse for the game not being 60fps, but in a CPU limited situation they should be able to increase the resolution on PS4 with hardly any (if any!) impact, the PS4 has the extra GPU power for it.
"1080/60 on PS4 and 720/30 on X1? I don't think the power difference is THAT big"
Agreed but Xbone is undoubtedly more difficult to develop for due to the ESRAM etc, many developers will not bother to put that extra effort in as Sony found out with PS3.
It'll be 900P consistent with what the Xbone GPU is able to put out at 60fps.
"Slightly lower res" is a bit misleading though, 900P is about 35% lower resolution than 1080P which is a significant difference.
PC is my primary platform and I won't be touching this with a barge pole.
Normal service is resumed.
Is anyone still actually surprised that a console with a superior GPU is running games with superior resolutions? because if so I'd like to sell you a Reliant Robin that handles like a Ferrari if you drive in a straight line.
I would rather they improve the simplistic repetitive gameplay.
This must hurt the French, they're the only country who refuse to speak any English in Eurovision. Apparently, in some parts of Canada the French contingent get all butthurt when other Canadians speak in English.
English won the global language battle, RIP French.
Azzanation, the frame-rates are capped at 30fps... if they weren't PS4 might be getting 20-30fps more. Why did Bungie choose to cap PS4 at 30fps same as Xbone? you'd have to ask them that... clearly if Xbone is running at such high settings then the graphics engine can't be all that taxing.
If the game fails to utilise PS4's additional graphics power then of course there will be parity, not every developer make full use of PS4. Even so it's obvious that Xbone is slower due to Bungie having to run to Microsoft for help, PS4 probably runs those settings with ease and little extra effort on the developers part.
Lets not also forget that Bungie have up until now been a huge asset/partner to Microsoft.
EA really need to look at what they're doing with their disgusting business plan.
Anyone who has Sims 3 and has spent £300 on the expansions for it are massively downgrading with Sims 4... sequels should at least have the same content as the previous game. Instead, EA are just cutting large parts of Sims 3 out of Sims 4 and then will be looking to sell it all back to their customers with new expansions.
Microsoft released in their 13 strongest markets, the other 59 markets are unlikely to add much to their overall total, it has been handy for them to be able to claim all this time that Sony had released 72 markets and them only 13 as that gives people the impression that Xbox isn't getting destroyed. Delaying release in those 59 countries was as much a marketing decision that anything else.
So that's 6 confirmed sales in Japan.
Laziness, profiteering.
I remember back in the Amiga days some game manuals were like educational novels.
The surprising thing for me is that the Diablo developers couldn't get 1080P to begin with on Xbone, it's a relatively simple game graphically.
If Microsoft think that less than 1080P is unacceptable then why did fit a sub par GPU for it? even AMD who are the manufacturer of the GPU's target 1080P with 32 ROP GPU's which is where the PS4 is at, the Xbone GPU has only 16 ROP's.
I expect 720P-900P to be the most common resolution on Xbone f...
How else are they going to show a game running in 1080P/60fps?
"Of course it will, they have shot down a huge number of potential sales but they obviously couldn't resist the pay cheque from MS."
Yet when their future non-exclusive games don't sell well because people are boycotting them they'll be banging the piracy drum, they need to start thinking long term.
If they hadn't done any remakes people would be complaining about lack of games, personally I would rather there be remakes released early in a consoles lifespan rather than nothing at all.
People buy FIFA etc every year and they have less work done on them.
Just another complete waste of time.
Don't get me wrong I've enjoyed this game for the past month, it is addictive but I would recommend everyone get out of it while you can.. all of the effort that you put in grinding for gear now will likely get wiped out when the expansions are released with all new better gear (and probably a new level cap).
These types of games where obtaining better and better gear are about as worthwhile as a dog chasing its ta...
