IGN admits that their pre-release COD Ghost footage wasn't 1080P.

No, the PS4 version now has the more stable netcode after last weeks patch, according to most people on the battlefield forums.

Do you have the game or have you played it?

The netcode has never been an issue for me on the Xbox One version. I have yet to encounter any substantial lag in a game, my only issue with the title has been that it sometimes will crash to the dashboard either when the game is loading up or switching to a new map.

720p vs 1080p is extremely noticeable at an 106" projector screen. And is it's noticeable in thoose screenshots too, click on them and watch the satelite. If someone cannot see that, they are blind.

Not sure about other posts, but I was talking about the 720P vs 720P video where A7 was saying that there was less aliasing on the PS4 version. If this was not meant at me then please ignore.

Obviously. I don't think anyone here was arguing that there isn't a noticeable difference between native 1080p and native 720p upscaled to 1080p (especially on large 1080p displays, but also certainly in the still screenshots)...

I know Cegar and I were both referring to the original IGN footage, which was 720p native upscaled to 1080p on BOTH systems. Many screenshots and comparison vids validated that the aliasing was the same on them, and the quality was virtually identical. There was no factual superiority nod to either, other than a performance edge on the X1 version, and a mild color difference between the two in some scenes... but overall image quality on both was virtually identical... anyone who claimed one was 'definitely better than the other' was clearly exposing their bias with that original footage...

Can't compare to the X1 version since I don't have an Xbox, but I am just relaying what I see on the BF forums that there is only one crash bug left on the PS4 to be patched. I have the PS4 version and so does my brother-in-law and the only issue I've heard is once and a while it will crash to the BF4 multiplayer screen at the end of conquest matches, so I imagine that is the bug but I have not personally experienced it because I don't often play conquest.

Well, of course screen size is going to matter greatly how much of a difference it makes. The bigger you make it, the bigger the differences are going to be.

I laugh that they make 1080p 32" TVs. At that size you'd struggle to tell the difference. Of course if you put that on a screen 3 times the size... yes, it does make a difference.

This is flat out false. I use a samsugn 32" tv as my pc monitor, and the differences between 720p and 1080p is night and day.

Of course....as my pc monitor, I sit pretty close.

Hell, even on smaller pc monitors, you notice the difference. IMO, 720p is fugly even on these screens, hence why I'd rather reduce other visual settings and keep 1080p. It makes that much of a difference.

 

[Kerosene31]

PC is different if you're cranking up the anti-aliasing. For console games, the difference isn't much on a small screen.

And yes, if you sit 6 inches from the screen it is more noticeable.

I don't know, even on console, I see a large difference in resolution between CoD:Ghost on PS4 versus PS3. And yes, I know there are better textures and what no on the PS4 version, but discounting that, I see a large enough difference.



But yeah, my sitting distance is a huge factor, but that can be said of larger TVs (and have been said by some posters here).

 

[Tequila Shot]

People spend more time arguing about the technical details of COD on next gen over playing COD on next gen.

That's probably because people are still waiting for a TRUELY next gen COD made from the ground up... Instead of a current gen port.

Exactly, which is why I question why a game on an ancient engine that doesn't look good on either console is the center of the console wars.

 

[Qbert]

Probably because it's the most played game out right now.

Because it's different on the two consoles. And we all know that if the tables were reversed and the 1080p was the XB1 and PS4 was lower res we'd have just as much bullcrap over it, just from different people. I really am hoping that at some point a multiplat has the best resolution/frame rate on the WiiU for some stupid reason so the fourteen people who own one can throw a third entry into the dickwaving contest.

Do we know if it is on next gen? Would be interesting to see if it is.

- When close enough to the screen. Important preface.

But that could be said about any screen. If I sit far enough from a 55" screen....it don't matter.

My initial response was to this:

I laugh that they make 1080p 32" TVs. At that size you'd struggle to tell the difference.

....which is false.

At a far enough distance....you'd struggle to tell the difference, it's not due to the size. 32" tvs are not typically the main tv in a large living room.

Very true... it's just that obviously the smaller the TV, the closer you have to be for it to matter... and with a 32" screen, the research that's floating around the interwebs suggests you'd have to be *really* close, and I think it's implicit in the line you responded to that "at most distances", one would struggle to tell the difference between 1080p and 720p on a TV of that size, and I'd agree that's true. He's not explicit in saying that, but I'm pretty sure it's implied, and it's certainly something I'd infer from his post.

In any case, I'll stay out of it - because you're not wrong. That said, I also think the post you responded to had an implication beyond what was literally written... people often do that. They write something with some embedded assumptions absent from the literal writing... and I'd be willing to bet the original poster probably simply meant something more like this:

I laugh that they make 1080p 32" TVs. At that size [with any moderate distance] you'd struggle to tell the difference.

That statement is, of course, quite true as well.

 

[A7]

Now I get it, you guys must be sitting far from your screens.

Makes sense.

 

[Kerosene31]

I sit about as far away s the IGN guys apparently, as they couldn't tell the difference either.

 

[A7]

I sit close enough to tell. 4-5 feet.
