The Xbox One Hardware Information Thread

There was a thread on teamxbox where I believe sylonious posted pics from DR3 that showed the fireman zombies, 4 of them in the pic and there were only 2 models, it was two sets of twins. So either they are exaggerating about never seeing the same zombie or they have changed something since those pics they released were put out. I don't think anyone is really going to go looking for duplicates anyway and as long as they can mix it up enough so you don't just see the same 2 zombies in a group of 10 I think that's probably good enough.
link?

Those were to show off the new zombie types that are sub-boss types; Firemen with axes, Football players that tackle, etc. Most likely they only had very few assets created for randomness when they first created them and those screen shots were simply to show them off at that time in reference to the new information.

As far as I could tell it was just a random picture, he put a few up that day all from the same place I believe and it didn't look like a sub boss type of area it was just out in the street. I'm not saying you are wrong, just that the pic he put up didn't have anything special about it that would lead me to believe it was a boss type of area.
 
Feel free to look for it yourself, I'm not going back to teamxbox and trying to find it lol.
I found it but I'm at work and can't tell if they look the same on this computer and I can't link it.....they come up if you google...will post them when i get home tonight and see if they are all the same.

They are mixed in with regular zombies. They are not anything special other than they have harder attacks and more difficult to take out. Other types of special undead are police with guns, convicts with shotguns, etc.. So I was saying that they probably showed those newer types before having multiple variations of textures and such for rendering them randomly as there first focus was on regular zombie variations.

It's funny when we talk next gen it's all about graphics but when it comes down to it, DR3 is the most nex-gen game coming out...imo. If every zombie is differant with that amount of zombies to go with no load times and a full city...get the fuk out of here...thats what we have been waiting for .
 
Thanks for grabbing the pic for me Cody. Not sure why it won't load from my post anymore.

Anyhow, JinCA...is that the pic? Because those firefighter zombies are all different.
 
Why would anyone use an example of a group of people who would use the same outfit for the most part.

That would be like "those liars all those McDonald's employees look the same".

No s*** they all have their uniforms on. However you can see the 3rd Zombie has a different bottom half than the others.

Agreed. Plus if anyone is going to take the time to nitpick enough to be disappointed that the zombies aren't TOTALLY different from one another, they should probably just punch themselves in the face.
As if to say 'well they're different, but not different enough!' Is anyone really going to care when there are hundreds of them onscreen??

Pause game, "wait, right there, those two in the back have the same shoelaces! God this game sucks."
:laugh:

Exactly. Apart from each having an axe in their right hand, almost each one has something different. Torn sleeves, pants, wounds... they are all different in their own ways.

This is just haters trying to pick apart the game because they can't find other reasons.
 
if it wasn't an exclusive I doubt it would be as hated.
I think it is actually the most exciting game that screams Next Gen at launch to me. It is my number one launch title.
 
yes, thinking about it that is more accurate actually. sad but true
yeah I don't understand the blatant blind hate. The worst I've seen is someone that doesn't like a single ps4 launch exclusive and likes 3 x1 launch exclusives. Is getting the multplats on PC and is getting a ps4 BC he hates the x1. No reason just hates it. I was like wtf am I reading
 
This thread has been highly informative.

hence the name...

where have you been the past 2 gens? Sony has always had a free pass while MS will always be under their microscope. I'm sure if you gave their fans the choice of having the xbox brand for competition or no competition and a PS4 with 1/3 the specs they'd elliminate the xbox brand. the vote would be practically unanimous.
 
Yes, saying the Xbox hardware information thread is informative is derailing. derp.
More a joke since we were off topic more than you. Maybe over the head there...

Back on topic, while we wait for the Eurogamer breakdown, it is my understanding that MS has never actually revealed which GPU (APU) they modified, am I right? Did they actually confirm the 1.3Tf nature of the GPU or is that derived from old leaks?

Sorry if this info is in the OP. Seemed like too much to wade through.

They confirmed the 1.31 TFLOPS in the Hotchips presentation. The GPU is based on the AMD Sea Islands family.
