The Witcher 3 1080p/30fps PS4|900p/30fps XBO

McMaster is a funny person,
- Complain people discussing resolution, in a thread about resolution. (see title)
- Said he did not care, but still posted here. Like Kvally said, you can choose NOT to post
- Tell people to care more about gameplay & other stuff, yet strangely, he did NOT make a post in the official thread! (At least the last 5 pages after a quick scan)

Most people that posted here, have at least a passing interest in the game, evidenced by participation in the official thread, & the resolution talk is just a thread that is side track as not divert focus on news & gameplay in official thread.

Hmmm, funny guy.

I want 1080p at least for Playstation just because there are so many trees, and aliasing can ruin it easily for me.

Hearing that PS4 platform was 1080p/30 was good enough for me.

Sucks that X1 couldn't but you guys'll still be able to have fun, no doubt.

I buy most of my third party games on PS4. So no sweat to me. But it would have nice for single consoles owners.

Huh...Gamespot makes it sound like the resolutions are now 100% certain, but didn't CDPR clearly say they are still working on the Xbox One version's resolution? Or is that off the table now?
 
I don't see 900p vs 1080p being a big deal on consoles; at that point, controller preference takes precedence.

It's certainly not going to hinder anybody's experience.

MFAA + whatever
4k if you can handle it

Riot called off.

They are still working on optimizations for all platforms still. They even mentioned that they were trying to beef up the performance for their recommended spec on PC and most PC optimizations are directly relateable to XBO (Direct X family). You also have MS updating the SDK like mad men.

Yep. I bought it off of some super shady Russian guy for a ridiculously low price.

I won't be able to enjoy all of that extra awesomeness until I build a PC, but I'll be dropping settings until I get 1080p75fps on my laptop.

Gaming on a native 1080p monitor, I'd take 1080p > controller preference but that's just me.
 
Its funny how much people care about resolutions and frame rate this gen. It started kind of creeping in last gen then all of a sudden boom.

The real winners will be the people who enjoy the game regardless of a bit of a rez difference. Good to see the devs taking a couple extra months to fully optomize the game for all platforms.

Maybe i just didn't notice it as much or maybe i'm noticing it more now since i own the "vastly inferior" console.

Ah yes good good.

I doubt i am the first one to say this though and i hate to scream downgrade when other things might be the case, which CDPR says in this case. But compare this latest PC footage the E3 footage of last year and footage before that...and it really does not nearly look as good. Take the ocean for example. It had awesome ripples and waves and looked goddamn good, it's just a flat surface now. But also look at the footage last E3, Geralt in the woods. Now this is clearly a different area than what we see in the new footage, but it really looked damn much better. Lighting wise especially. But with all that said....why downgrade it for PC you know?

I am sorry but calling these things downgrades is a bit short sighted. I mean we are talking about footage that is 1 to 2 years old. We all know that things will change, we all know that optimization is one of the last things to get done. That means effects get toned down, textures pulled back a bit, etc. It is just part of the game, and it always happens.
 
I'm going to have fun with the 1080p version then go have my face melted seeing the 4k version.

Mentioned no downgrade, then mentioned things that were downgraded. The irony :grin:

Maybe when you said no downgraded, I think you referring to not a significant drop in quality?

From what seen, it seemed downgraded, at least a little. Which is like already an agreement at Wicther forum, only dividing the people is how much is the downgrade, cause of downgrade, and will it be upgrade (optimized) again.

Actually optimisation is a continuous process, however, you are are right that, when most of the other stuff is done, optimisation (along with bug fix) is one of the last task that still remained, & 'downgrade' (like lower texture resolution, remove a tree here & there, tone down post effects like bloom & lens flare, not unlike you mentioned) is one of the means to optimization.

I think the frustration comes when people throw such a fit. As long as they know what it is like at launch, I see no wrong-doing. People need to learn to temper their expectations, and it isn't like it's a new media, and we should all know that concessions may have to be made as they add features.

Devs will show their goals, and even have real versions showing that have to be adjusted once all features are in. Everything eats resources.

I didn't say "No downgrades."

My point is they are showing footage of unfinished products. Assuming these games will look like they do when they are 2 years is a bit silly. Especially when the most important part-optimization-has yet to happen in any meaningul way.
