Apparently we haven’t even seen final code yet...

Rise of the Tomb Raider on Xbox One X: CD Talks “Highest Fidelity Version,” Frame Rate, and Much More
This is why I found all the nit picking during the recent DF comparison video hilarious. Youtubers and fanboys were like a moth to a flame. DF even said themselves the current version wasn't final code.
Youtubers just do it for clicks, that's how they make their money but they know better they just don't care. I don't think anyone really thought it was final code as console isn't even out yet. That being said people do the same thing with every game that gets a preview regardless of platform, if DF says it's struggling in any aspect it becomes the end of the world. This one was made worse because this is a game that's already been out for quite a while and all the huffing and puffing about how easy the One X is to work with and how this version was supposed to be so superior only to see it struggling in the framerate department when running in 4K gave people looking for flaws some ammunition.
The pro has those options as well, I'm sure the One X goes further in some areas though but it does have those two options. Glad to see the dev is giving both platforms love, unlike Bethesda which seems to be leaving pro and x1x owners out in the cold as far as upgrades for the evil within 2.
They weren't huffing and puffing though. You saw PC and Sony fanboys spouting the same thing - as if MS were trying to deceive gamers on what the console can do.
People need to pick their battles with this thing. Most are jumping the gun with many aspects of the console and what it can do. I wouldn't make a call on any game just yet until the console is out in the wild.

I love that they are making three different modes. I hope more developers go this route in the future. It allows games to pick what is more important to them. Higher res, higher frame rate, or high VQ. Love it!
I always think it's funny (funny sad, not ha ha) when people get wound up over one or two frame drops, or they use it to dog a certain version.
Yeah, I mean I get it when a game is 30 fps and it drops into the mid/low 20's because that really does start to feel kind of off but when I see people complain about a 60 fps game that drops into the 50's and even mid 40's I just think that it's still smoother than a 30 fps game so why complain too much? Of course stable framerates are better than unstable ones but anything 30 and above I'm fine with, the fewer drops below 30 the better. You are right though going from 30 to 28 isn't a huge deal.
oh, they deceived gamers alright.
they promised "true 4k gaming without compromise" and as we now know, that 4k gaming is indeed compromised and you have to run games at less than true 4k to get the optimal game experience.

From a year (2016) and 3 months ago:
"Speaking in the video (below), Spencer explained that Scorpio is a "6 teraflop gaming machine, which will be a great gaming machine for true 4K gaming, giving you a native 4K frame buffer so you can see games in all their beauty.
"Or," he continued, "if developers want to use those 6 teraflops in other ways they're free to do that."
Spencer's comments suggest that developers may be able to use Scorpio's additional power to deliver more visually impressive games at a lower resolution, rather than be forced to render at native 4K."
His quote above states compromise.
We definitely knew all along what the console was capable of, and how many TF it would be. I also know what PR is, as does everyone on the gaming forums.
Can we not bring this tired old thread back up? It went on for pages and pages of people saying the exact same thing. Yes they said it back in 2016 when they shouldn't have. Yes they have been EXTREMELY clear on the subject since then.
Move a long.
Oh crap I forgot all about that on Xbox. Thanks man you saved me money and got me a bunch of other games to play also. Cheers!
whats that, you want to make excuses for why X1X cant do "true 4k gaming without compromise", ok.
"true 4k gaming without compromise" would deliver everything one needs from a game without having to erm.... compromise.
Good thing Phil told us over a year ago....
