Support NeoGAF

[Freki]

I just went through some of them, i cant believe people dribble these things out of their mouths onto their keyboard.. Youtube comments 2.0.

A good portion is probably paid to do so...

 

[Pug]

lmao. how reddit feels about "AstroGAF" always makes me laugh



lol some crazy rationalization over there.

Yep especially taking into consideration that Xbox one dev units never contained 12 MB of ram

 

[Kolgar]

And the chickens come home to roost.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Infinity Ward needs some crunch time dinner.

oh shit xD

 

[Woffls]

Platforms aren't even equal in relative terms from day one, some are just more difficult and we can't make accurate comparisons for years - specs aren't reliable enough. We had this exact fucking issue last gen with PS3 being a bitch to code for, and that even managed to turn out more capable than 360 after a couple of years. Same shit, next gen.

1080p CoD is important for shootin' dudes from far away or something I dunno.

 

[SRTtoZ]

Remarkable that everyone is jumping on the 720p thing, but the OS rumour, which is the far more worrying one, is getting mostly ignored. "Crashes or hangs once per session"? Let's hope that's not true.

There's not many sources for it, I think only Proelite. Once that one comes closer to being verified I think it will become HUGE (if true).

 

[Foghorn Leghorn]

The scrooge from this thread is upset

That is making me LOL real bad.

 

[Magwik]

Good lord reddit is salty.

They are in denial.

 

[ironcreed]

Exactly, is this an MS issue or an IW one?

That is the thing. If developers are having issues with it, then what does that say for other, far more demanding multiplats?

 

[ypo]

It's so cute that some of you care about what the mainstream may or may not notice. Who cares if you can see the huge difference as long as the mainstream can't see it. So awesome.

 

[Vizzeh]

Exactly, is this an MS issue or an IW one?

Evidently, both.

Well going by the growing list of 720p/900p Games its potentially more Microsofts problem, there is a bottleneck somewhere in their console. (Cboat Rumors also suggests this)

 

[Sum-Mischief]

PS store states that the PS4 version is running at 1080p native ! Its available for pre order ...

 

[DarkoMaledictus]

its not a shit engine. its just not flashy. its been highly optimised to get good famerates and the engine has always scaled up well on pc's

That is why on pc a 780 gtx is recommended... oh wait .

 

[Vandiger]

Need to physically see it, no way MS can fuck this up.

 

[USIGSJ]

How long till IGN updates their media player with the new quality settings?

Need to add PC for 4K playback there.

 

[twobear]

Seriously though, has there ever been as bad a product launch in the history of electronics? All we need now is the already-rumoured hardware overheating issues and we could be staring down the barrel of Redmond's latest and greatest flop. 2014 is going to be interesting to watch.

 

[Radec]

Checking in.

This day is gonna be good. lol

 

[Zeth]

I'm somehow not surprised by how positively gleeful some posters are about the possibility of this being true...

 

[Bgamer90]

Guys really. Wait for proof. You will feel so much better later.

Too late. People are already going crazy lol.

Would be huge if true -- especially since COD is tied to the Xbox brand more obviously.

If it's true then I guess they ran into something since June -- was stated back then that both the PS4 and Xbox One versions were 1080p in 60 FPS.

 

[zebwinz]

New Theory:

Everyone is assuming that the 720p/1080p is what Famousmortimer was talking about, basically by process of elimination of the other bad news. However, all the videos that IGN are shooting/shot for this week are based on the Squads multiplayer mode. Is it simply possible that matchmaking, which we know is a separate app that runs on Xbox One, is still being ironed out/fixed? Even local matchmaking would need to be done through the app since it is essentially part of the OS and not the game. Therefore it would be easier and run better on PS4 because the multiplayer architecture on PS4 is the same as it has always been.

I've come up with this theory from this conversation, which was linked in the OP.

No problem, so the OS is still in an unreliable state and matchmaking is flaky as well?

They have about a few weeks to fix things I suppose.

Why must it be the 720p thing and not because of matchmaking?

I am saying 720p would be a mere annoyance compared to frequent crashes and broken Live matchmaking.

 

[Odrion]

I guess it was a Xbox 720 all along!

 

[KJ869]

Its starting to smell wierd. The sideclaim of XBONE OS crashing combined with earlier Gerstman Tumbler reply that the reason PS4 footage is coming out but no XBONE because microsoft has not allowed it.. Its 1 month from release so there has to be good reasons not to let people capture video.. You want people starting to get exicted now, not on the launchday..

 

[zerokoolpsx]

This would be mind blowing if its true.

1080p CoD is important for shootin' dudes from far away or something I dunno.

Specs are a reliable indicator this time around, as both consoles have a very similar architecture. The difference is also much bigger than PS3/360 ever was.

 

[SeanR1221]

Alberts twitter is probably blowing up

 

[Raonak]

Pretty crazy if true. I was planning to get some coding done today, but welp. this thread is too crazy to ignore.

 

[djshauny]

Has he asked Call of Duty yet?

LOL

Love it

 

[Goku]

I'll wait for real confirmation before I get too excited.

Why would you get excited about XOne version running in 720p? It's sad really.

I'm somehow not surprised by how positively gleeful some posters are about the possibility of this being true...

It's quite sad :/

[titusandronicus]

 

[Bedameister]

So the 720p Xbox One version will be the more balanced one?

 

[Papercuts]

Wow if true. Luckily for MS COD games benefit more from a stable frame-rate. Also does the PS4 version have dedicated servers? If not then they might just balance out in the end.

PS4 version has dedis too.

 

[~~Hasan~~]

Yes. The PS4 version is still 15 spots higher than the Xbox one version.


Thanks for pointing that out.

actually. maybe its worse.

you can still pre order xbox one standard edition

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CMQTVK0/?tag=neogaf0e-20

but you cant with ps4 anymore

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BGA9WK2/?tag=neogaf0e-20

even the standard edition is gone with the PS4.

it only shows sign up to be notified for me

and somehow the PS4 is still ahead of Xbox one in best sellers.

 

[Amir0x]

What, where are those rumours from? I thought part of the entire Xbox One design philosophy was to avoid exactly that problem.

I wouldn't worry about an overheating issue at all.

 

[PaulExcellent]

Woah woah woah.

Is this actually going down? Like, real talk?

 

[NoirVisage]

Not really. They're just being a little level headed. Some of them, at least.

Redditor confirmed -__-

They're salty, this isn't new either, they HATE when Gaf breaks news like this, and they HATE CBOAT, possibly have a hit out on him.

I'm somehow not surprised by how positively gleeful some posters are about the possibility of this being true...

What a non statement.

 

[ironcreed]

Proelite said in the other thread he is more concerned about the unstable and buggy OS/match making a month out from launch than he is 720p COD.

How about both?

 

[kurtrussell]

720p.... Only on Xbox

 

[gkryhewy]

There's not many sources for it, I think only Proelite. Once that one comes closer to being verified I think it will become HUGE (if true).

MS will always have a significant edge over sony when it comes to OS; let's be real.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

That is the thing. If developers are having issues with it, then what does that say for other, far more demanding multiplats?

I understand the implications but then how are Forza and Ryse pulling off the visuals that they are?

Then again isn't Ryse mostly QTEs at 900p?

 

[Can Crusher]

How long till IGN updates their media player with the new quality settings?

 

[Wynnebeck]

That's one thing it could say. It could also say that MS sucked when it came time to supporting devs with XDK updates/tools etc.

So you are saying that MS will provide the secret sauce to Infinity Ward devs to get the game to scale to 1080? Maybe a high resolution update?

But of course Xbox One can run. Please, it's an 1999 recycled engine.

You really aren't helping your point. We know the engine can run on a toaster. What does that say about Xbone which is supposed to be magnitudes stronger than PS3/360 and can't run Ghosts at 1080 even after the devs have had devkits and the like for months? This sounds like it goes beyond a few toolkits and XDK updates.

 

[davepoobond]

I guess it was a Xbox 720 all along!

Nice.

 

[veras]

Why would you get excited about XOne version running in 720p? It's sad really.

Pretty sure he means 'excited' in the 'worked up' sense, not the 'happy' sense

 

[Tsundere]

If it's true then I guess they ran into something since June -- was stated back then that both the PS4 and Xbox One versions were 1080p in 60 FPS.

Could still be true, but one would be native and the other upscaled.

 

[jwk94]

oh wow

"According to gaming cesspool NeoGAF, it’s looking like the Xbox One edition of Call of Duty: Ghosts will run at only 720p while the PlayStation 4 version runs at the full HD resolution of 1080p."

We are famous :-D

If this keeps up, I don't think I'll getting an Xbone... We'll see.

 

[backbreaker65]

How in THE HELL is Ryse pushing 900p with those goddamn visuals then?

Seems to me like we should wait for a full picture.

If true then...idk what to think. It has to be an Activision issue. Forza is 1080p and GHOST doesn't look anywhere as good.

Jesus MS

Ryse is a game made in the same vein as God of War Linear corridor game. It is doing nothing special. It should not be mentioned in the same breath of games like Battle Field 4 or Killzone Shadow Fall, both of which are doing more at a higher fidelity with large battle fields.
