It's not just CoD. The significance of this is what it may mean for multiplatform games, the power of the system, and/or how easy/hard it is for developers to make games for.
Don't worry SE will find a way of doing that themselves.
It's MS's highest selling, and synonymous titles. Before it was "you want to play CoD, go 360 or gtfo" and this was relatively true.
Now, add in that Titanfall is 720p, along with all the Battlefield 4 nonsense, and you can see where this is going.
It's not all just because of CoD, because, well, from the footage seen today, it really doesn't look that good at all. No amount of P's will save it. That series needs a new engine.

We've got a high up from Microsoft doing damage control over here on NeoGAF. That's the situation Xbox is in...
I really think he'd be better off taking CBOAT's message and being real with people. No one likes to be fed marketing bullshit.
We already knew STOP
Titanfall also STOP
Not cool to hold back on stuff we cant interact or tell truths with, even if it's in the job to obstruct more than educate STOP
Transparency is better in this position STOP Whatever though STOP
That's my interpretation anyway.

Holy shit, shots fired. AP and CBOAT in the same thread. GAF is going down in 3... 2... 1...
All this next gen madness makes me really miss the 1up Yours Podcast when Shane and Luke were going at it. Garnett was wrong about everything and John called the Wii being the Dark Horse. Miss those times, wish they could be recreated for all the crazy shit going on right now.

It's super effective!
I wonder how long until we have people downplaying his track record though.
well that's all folks.

I read the previous comment and then I read yours before I commented. I'm still asking the same question.

Tek screw some random silicon chips to the outside case of each console before you ship them MS. Just try something.
I've spent the last hour doing so, and it has been glorious.

I speak Cboatanese but probably already beaten:
We already know.
Titanfall also.
Not cool to hold back on stuff we can't interact or tell truths with, even if its the job to obfuscate.
Transparency is better when dealing with this position. Whatever though...
Edit: Yup beaten pages ago.
Unscrambled words? You're slipping CBoaT.

So when Call of Duty looks crap regardless of the system, will you all be thankful you are playing it in 1080p instead of 720p. I mean, by the sounds of it, you are living in the stone age if you play on anything but a sony bravia and 1080p. This place needs perspective man.

It seems as though it is the "new cell" to put it in layman terms
in terms of difficulty at least

can someone provide me a link to their twitter accounts so I can follow their epicness?
It will be a huge shame if this is true.
I have to wonder if its less about the system specs and more about everything else going on, from what i have read over the last few months and seemingly gets backed up a lot is:
The drivers for the system have been behind for the longest time.
The system final specs have not been solidified until recently (over clocks etc).
The dev tool set was not as ready as the PS4's toolset.
The PS4 is rendering games faster on un-optimized code from just raw performance of the box.
That sort of news to me suggests a few things for myself, Forza, Ryse and Dead Rising are all coming together quite well and are all first party titles which have dedicated teams working only on XBO hardware. Now COD is a multiplatform title being coded for many different current and next gen systems so the code is mostly shared, now based on the fact the PS4 can push more performance and has a better toolset without specialized coding i bet its in better shape now and has been since they started porting it.
So if the XBO version is 900p or 720p im guessing its due to time constraints and lack of optimization of the hardware to get it ready for launch, might even explain the insane PC requirements for the title when it clearly does not seem to need it visually.
I sometimes look at stuff like this how i did the 360 launch, like for example Perfect Dark that ran native 720p with AA (i believe?) framerate as that was what MS promised was the base coming into that gen and the game was 'ok' performance wise but had a huge floaty feeling that i assume came from the VSync and it looked ok simply not a great overall looking game. Then soon after almost no games where rendering at 720p native to keep a decent frame rate I have to wonder how long any system will keep a 1080p render in the long run.
Edit: Ah didnt see Cboat talk in this thread, no idea what to think then.

Hey same here! Hopefully your day really did get better
On a separate note, fuck it. Titanfall is my last straw. If that game can't do at least 900p on the x1 I'm done. I'll wait a few more days to hear anything and if nothing changes I'm holding off on getting an x1. PS4 day one for me.
