Godmars, can you explain how devs would use DX12 and not make games? Also, how does this explain why DX12 hasn't become popular? You're message is confusing.
Ju asked, further to where? Advanced physics and lighting renderers that run on dedicated HW.
FYI, native DX12 engines are becoming more common in retail releases now because devs have had enough time to make their games from the ground up with DX12 in mind. This year we're going to se...
Here, let me show you my 🐔&⚽'s!
Or if you prefer, maybe seeing a 🐈 would be better?
😆😆😆
I didn't mind Brothers, but it didn't really hold my interest that well. Brothers did have a certain charm to it that I liked though.
TBH, I want another Chronicles of Riddick. Starbreeze/Tigon did a great job with those games.
Weird. I always assumed that the Super Famicom was a Japanese thing, and everyone else got the one from NA!
EGA monitors were sick!!! The perfect compliment to my 32MB HDD, 5 1/4" floppy, and phone cradle modem...
My first computer didn't even have a color monitor... or a seperate keyboard. I'm freaking old...😔
@ cd1 it was a glitch, but I assume they patched BF1 since then. The dynamic scaling on PS4 would drop to 180p (not a typo) in very rare circumstances!!!
The games could look drastically different on Scorpio, even in 1080p, because of the 4K assets, supersampling, better LOD, and higher framerates. We'll have to see what MS says about 1080p on Scorpio though.
"Concrete possibility"... 🤔 ...it's a definite maybe confirmed!
Thanks for the correction, Kevnb. You're right about that. I was referring more to the fact that it scales perfectly with the lower resolutions, unlike 1620p or 792p, but that was my bad for not elaborating my point.
1440p is 2x 720p, and 1800p is 2x 900p, so both are related to established resolutions for games. Resolutions of 792p or 1620p are simply weird because they don't fit into any standard category. But yeah, I can't see any reason why 1620 wouldn't be better than 1440p, so why not do it if it's possible?
I'm pretty sure they could have if they're hitting 1620p at double the frame rate (somebody want to do the math?). Seems like it was a developer's choice in this instance.
Xbox One Elite makes the most sense to me, since it's not an "S" revision of anything. I'm sure people would just call it Xbox Elite when they ask about it, but MS needs to identify the console as part of the Xbox One family to avoid marketing confusion.
I agree with your theory about their premium branding of the Elite controller though.
Wow. Double the frames and at 1620p is impressive!
Why does it look like a Famicom? It should be OG SNES all the way. Asthetics aside, it's still pretty sweet.
Mc Farlane shouldn't release figures that look like the in game models because it would tarnish his reputation for making quality figures. Ryder is kind of a double bagger, TBH, so it's better to leave the helmet on.
Ju, here's a fun fact for you... Educating yourself makes you look smart, while making assumptions like you are makes you look stupid. MS does indeed have CB accelerators, and if you look at where fp16 is offering a 50% performance increase, you'll find that it translates to about a 5-10% boost to overall performance in a best case scenario.
JU, it doesn't matter how a system gets to 4K? Lol. In that case, XB1S can do 4K too.
Also, MS has HW accelerators for checkerboarding too. The deep dive into the HW (not this downplay paraphrased version here, but the actual interview) specifically mentions it.
Drive Club looks better because it runs at 30 fps instead of 60, and Forza runs physics at 360fps as well. PS4 also has a power advantage. Nothing to do with "PS4 efficiency" a...
Shh, keep it down! There's people trying to downplay the Xbox in here!!!
Come on, Butcher, your're going off the reveal information. Honestly, even then you still got it wrong.
The reveal said it doesn't look like anything he's ever seen before, but he >assumed< it's Jaguar. The deep dive into the hardware, after the reveal, now says that the Jaguar CPU has been modified to the point where it's no longer considered a Jaguar processor. Again, it's based off of Jaguar, sure, but it Isn't Jaguar anymore.
Not more power. That's just ignorant to think that an API could add HW to anything.
DX12 will make XB1 more efficient. Big difference. SM6 is going to help out a lot, especially with Tiled Resources. FL12.1 HW is going to accelerate advanced physics and lighting. On XB1 it will be scaled down, but the Nvidia demo is a good indicator of the type of rendering the XB1 was designed to be good at.
MS designed the XB1 to be a 10 year console, and it wa...
