Why is this resolution so common on XB1?
Seems like ever since Titanfall, a lot of games use it.
>>
This is the worst console generation in terms of hardware leaps. While the PS3 and Xbox360 were decent devices for their time, especially considering the 360's price, the PS4 (and especially the Xbone and Wii U) was an obsolete piece of shit with a CPU bottleneck even before it released.

This is why the PS4K thing is happening. They need another console generation now, but they can't afford to abandon the consoles they just released like Nintendo is doing with the Wii U, so they are going with the re-released console path.

Consoles pushing visuals over performance and gameplay. As long as he game shines and sparkles who cares.

Stop bitching, games are looking better than they ever have before, theres no difference between the two ffs give it a rest
>>
>>333087361
I really doubt that game logic is really causing a lot of the slowdowns. Sure the CPUs are pretty anemic, but they have nothing to do with the fact the GPUs that are both in the PS4 and the Xbox One are just not good enough for 1080p.
>>
>>333087643
Looking better? maybe
Playing better? fucking god no.

I wasn't blaming the CPU for this, just pointing out how shitty this generation of consoles are.

It looks like how a youtube video plays when it jumps from 1080p to 480p because of hiccups.

I have my doubts but I'll let SE keep making their game. Better not be another open world meme problem.

>>333088102
They already had a specs upgrade from PS3 to PS4 and X1. That's one spare gen up and PS3 version is kaput now. You can't blame consoles SE seems to have a direction problem. The scale keeps getting bigger and bigger with the anime announcement too.

It will but there 3 choices

1. Release the pc version with the dx12 tech and build that isn't downgraded and REALLY show how shitty the ps4 is.

2. Wait until the new consoles are out and release it as a "remaster" later

3. Run parity on the pc version and bring it down to the shitty levels of the consoles

This is another gta v scenario. Except it won't take as long since the new iterations and NX are on their way by the end or early next year

>>333092953
I remember when performance was mediocre on launch so people started touting "DIRECTX 12! HSA! HUMA! MUH OPTIMIZATION!"
And yet, when that all turned out to be BS (aside from DX12, which hasn't really helped console OR PC performance outside of Ashes of the Singularity), people just dropped it all.
Console owners aren't accustomed to graphics vendors hyping up shit that's literally almost completely useless, so they fell for it hook, line, and sinker.
>>
>>333092638
So either pull a crytek, pull a rockstar or pull a ubisoft?
Please no ubisoft, I'd be ok with them doing a gta v scenario if it's not a shit port and it runs well
This game looks and runs worse than XIII and it's running on hardware much more powerful
>>
>>333092638
>2. Wait until the new consoles are out and release it as a "remaster" later

Now that I think about it people always said pc got a release later towards the end of the gen so people double dip

But it seems it's more so that the console version doesn't look completeley outclassed which might hamper console sales with the it's not fair mentality.

Well I won't lie prefer to wait for a better looking game like gta v than be stuck with a downgrade like watchdogs
>>
>>333093226
I wouldn't say it looks worse than XIII, it just doesn't look all that much better considering the hardware it's on and how poorly it runs.

Pretty sure not even Microsoft knows what their doing with the xbone anymore. The 360's original success must have given them an inflated ego on consoles or something because since then they've done nothing but bad mistake, one after another, and then try to patch shit up afterward but they already made the bed. The console also seems to lack dirrection as first they tried forcing the motion controlls hard to compete with Wii and no one wanted that. They then went for the the whole home theater decive thing and everyone was not impressed and now everyones just looking at the console funny because it can't even run games as well as the competition.

The FF15 engine simply sucks. That's why they are dropping it for FF7 and KH3.

>>333096576
I want FFXV to use Crystal Tools, forward renderer for the lighting pipeline and 1080p 60fps on consoles as non-negotiable target
Start by matching the graphical fidelity of XIII and then work from there, improve the character models, then the effects, then the rest and stop improving graphic quality once you reach full gpu and cpu usage at 1080p 50fps in the most demanding scenes
>>333096740
UE4 is downgraded on consoles and runs like shit on them, see the VII R gameplay
Fox Engine was made for 7th gen 720p 30fps and adapted into 1080p 60fps on ps4
>>
>>333087361
>This is why the PS4K thing is happening. They need another console generation now
If you honestly think that "PS4K" will be a significant jump from the PS4, you're naive.

The fact of the matter is that PC hardware left console hardware in the dust years ago and the gap has only gotten wider. Console manufacturers can no longer put out a platform with competitive hardware to a gaming PC while staying within a fixed price.
>>
>>333096961
Both are pretty good engines in the right hands though, hell Batman Arkham Knight runs on Unreal3 and it's locked 30
The thing is that the Luminous Engine has really bad scaling, they would've too turn off so many options to run it at locked 30 that it would almost not be worth it

It also runs on UE3, like you said.
And Fox Engine, it's great in PT, but that's about it.
It's not even particularly impressive, MGSV and PES both used Fox Engine and neither was really a looker.
Granted, they ran well, but Fifa looks miles better than PES and also runs at 60 FPS.
Luminous Engine was designed for high end hardware from the getgo, while not the best idea, it would have at least pushed the envelope.
But, Japs are pretty stupid, so if they can't do it on a console, they won't do it at all, so we get a bastardized version for a cut-down HD 7870 and a laptop processor.
>>
>>333097218
It's not about scaling
If a gtx 680 runs it well at 60fps it just means it scales well only above the baseline requirements that the ps4 fails to meet
Would you say frostbite 3 has shit scaling because a wii can't run battlefield 4?

>>333098712
>PS3 or 360 where never near a PC.
On release the 360 and PS3 legitimately had a better GPU than pretty much every PC GPU on the market at the time thanks to their unified shaders (which didn't make their way to PC GPUs until the GTX 8000 series), which is why the 360/PS3 both lasted much longer than a 7800 GTX despite being outperformed by one at launch.
This gen, it's entirely different, there's no special secret sauce that developers have to learn how to take advantage of in these consoles, they were outdated on release and they'll stay that way.
>>333098847
I'm referring to the Agni's Philosophy tech demo, which runs on Lumiinous Engine and ran at 1080p60 on a GTX 680.

Unless they were given the devkits back in 2010-2011 when they were developing their next gen engines, Sony and MS fucked up.
A LOT of developers were expecting something along the lines of a GTX 680, and the PS4 was nowhere near that.

That's because they never designed it for hardware as weak as what's in the consoles.

Their failure to "scale it down" is because they didn't make the engine well in the first place. The engine should be able to scale down well, not lose everything in the bargain and make the game look like Sonic 06 with some filtering.

That's not how screenshots work, at worst it'll just be compressed so you won't get the same texture/asset detail compared to a lossless capture, it won't turn the shadows into horribly dithered blobs.
