Face Off: Resident Evil Remastered
- Thread starter VFX_Veteran
- Start date
Not downplaying it just saying I don't expect it given the fact that it's never been the focus for most devs working on console games in the past.
I remember way back in the day when Electronics Boutique would let you trade in a game for any reason within a week for full credit, that really came in handy lol.
Yeah, honestly i don't remember that, I do remember them opening at 10am with about a half dozen people waiting to get an X1.
If Gamestop would implement that policy I might actually shop there.
The same article also mentioned PS4 is equivalent to medium setting on PC, & X1 low settings.
Consoles also miss out on the PC's high shadow settings. Based on comparison shots, the PS4 offers an equivalent to the PC's medium setting, slightly blurring the lines across dynamic shadows. Xbox One goes one setting lower than this, matching the low preset on PC with visible banding, still softer edges and more flickering to shadow lines across moving characters.
Since you mentioned performance difference, I think this information is also valid. Both PS4 & X1 cannot produce 60fps, the judder is also found in Alien Isolation, when the fps will suddenly drop to around 25 fps, but only a single frame. If its a performance issue, you expect the drop to follow a smooth valley curve. Nevertheless, not sure its a design issue or something that can be resolved by tools update.
Why such a non visually demanding game struggling with next gen consoles is a mystery.

"Perceived effect" prob like what COD Ghosts was doing because it was doing over 60 fps being more of a synch issue.
Welcome to 2015 where there are no new games released yet. This will blow away as soon as Dying Light comes out next week.
So hold on a minute. PS4 doesn't live up to the PC version and they don't even mention the Xbox One version? Sounds like they're trying to hide the fact that the X1 version is the best.
These consoles are powerful enough to re-imagine the game in full 3D. I don't see the point of re-releasing the GC game almost as is.
This game is currently on sale for $13.34 @ http://www.nuuvem.com.br/produto/2596-resident-evil-hd-remaster

I'm more surprised that a vs thread has more or less a crappy multiplat game thread.
MLK would be proud!
If some find that offensive mods take it out. Replace with pitcher of Rodney King with caption" can't we all just get along.
or if still offensive
Rodney Dangerfield with u get no respect
You could say that, but you don't always know what goes into a game. Maybe they are using subsurface scatter on the characters, and we just don't see it. Maybe they are using more advance anti-aliasing solutions for the game, and we just don't know it. Maybe there is tessellation on the models or in various other places, and we just don't bother to notice. Even if we can't see some of these things, that which is visible is very visibly better than last gen consoles without a doubt, and to add on to that, there is even more precise depth of field rendering which can be killer on the frame rates. And it all has to be done at resolutions higher than last gen consoles. And maybe everything they added, visible or not, is just simply evident that their target was 30fps from the start.

If it were just about any other developer I'd be willing to accept that, however, this is Capcom we're talking about...
But even The Last of US on PS4 could not handle decent shadow map resolutions at 60fps. That really speaks out about these new consoles. And this Resident Evil Remaster clearly has implemented some very nice effects impossible on last gen consoles. Even if it is Capcom, they have a good excuse and alibi. And it's not as if they ever told us or ever hinted they were planning to hit 60fps. Much like nearly all of the PS3's HD collections like Ico/SotC and FFX/FFX-2, this game is 30fps.
No where in the article did they sated X1 winning performance test. You can be sure if X1 does win, Intellivision will make a post about it.
PS4 have curious frame pacing issue, & PS4 is running at equivalent of Pc Medium Preset, & X1 Low preset.
If anything, they recommend the PC if you have a decent rig, as it produce smooth 60fps at half decent gaming PC.

I didn't say anything about the article, I posted a Youtube video that DF made for X1 and PS4 specifically. PC is not part of it.
Of course PC is recommended, as usual.
PC>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Console.
As in a half decent PC, no a powerhouse PC.
Also, I d not see how X1 wins by the video you post. Just being honest.
Why do you think X1 is winning, or by winning, you meant look identical?
They look actually very similar, despite supposedly X1 is on low preset (maybe the compression). In any case, Considering 90% of the stuff is pre-rendered, its probably academic anyway.
