The conspiracy ensues...... Ooohhh. lol
It is a cheap trick imo. If people want higher contrast they can adjust their TVs. It tends to lead to the wrong claim that "higher contrast = larger/more detailed textures".Give it up....it's not even a "trick". I understood what you meant, and yet.....you're still wrong.
Adjusting contrast isn't a cheap trick, if anything, too much contrast makes the image worse as different shades of blacks or whites become one.
It's not a cheap trick....it's not a trick at all.

My opinion that it's a cheap trick can't be right or wrong, btw. I suggest you learn the difference between opinion and fact before calling things "wrong". That right there is worth a laughing gif.
Now if they could create a cheap trick to kill dem jaggies. That would be a nice trick.
Just tell yourself that the "trick" makes the jaggies look like they're not there.
Here's a helpful link just for you, because apparently you still can't tell the difference and weren't paying attention in preschool.Oh lord, there's so much stupid in your post.
That's like me saying that I could use the contrast "cheap trick" to make my current gen games look next gen. You can't say anything, because that's my opinion. derp.

I decided to do such.

Did your wizardry make all those guys float as well?

You think he would've garnered more respect had he said "We're lazy and we suck"? lol.
I'd love for a developer to say that. Just once. "Why were there problems with your game?" "Well, you know, our team is pretty lazy and not very talented or bright."
Apparently this forum does, because that is all that is talked about.E) who cares?
I think the talk of lazy devs is not just about the X1, but next gen in general. Because even on PS4 it looks like s***e, and they just reused the same old engine instead of actually creating a new one for next gen. Either way, it doesn't look anything like it should..even at 1080p on PS4.So that I can be sure I am following correctly, which are we going with now?
A) Just sit back - "You can't even tell the difference between 720p and 1080p anyway." / "While the resolution is lower, that allows for greater effects and better textures." / "It is a developer choice to go with 720p, not that the Xbone is not powerful enough."
B) Gotta be the tools - "Devs are just learning to use the tools, next game they release will be up to par." / "Immature tools will improve over time."
C) Dat needy OS - "MS hasn't had the time to optimize memory usage for the OS." / "Kinect and OS functions like Snap currently have a set amount of memory allocated to them, but MS is going to release some of that in the future."
D) Lazy, lazy Devs - "This game could easily be 1080p at 60 on Xbone, it doesn't even look good!" / "If the Devs bothered to optimize their game and weren't so lazy this could easily be (insert any resolution above 720p here)."
However if they strip effects from the ps4 just so it can state its 1080p that makes it somehow better? what we need is two games running at 720p or 1080p and see which looks better...What xbox fanboys don't seem to get is the fact that if devs decided to go 720p on ps4 then they could also add even more bells and whistles or whatever you want to call it. Going 720p on xb1 is not some benefit that magically gets you a better looking game. The same exact thing could be done on ps4.

Should have put lazy in quotes. I know they aren't really lazy, game development is not an easy task. Just meant that the game seems more built for current gen than next gen, and it shows.No devs are lazy some are just better then others, the amount of effort even the so called 'lazy developers' have to put in to get a working, shipping game out the door is immense. The task is not a small one which creates a natural divide wrt to talent and also time constraints.
