Why CoD is 720 on X1.....

Really difficult to care much about this as COD:G just looks bad graphically no matter which platform I've seen it on.
 
Take the PS4 or PC BF4 footage and up the contrast ratio. There's your "nicer textures". I wouldn't be surprised if we see this contrast ratio trick again in the future.

No points to make? Post a troll gif.:rolleyes:

Or are we now thinking that a deliberately Leadbetter cherrypicked frame where a texture hadn't fully loaded in is now "blurrier textures" even though it would be imperceptible at 60 fps, and likely taken care of by launch anyway? Or maybe you just like jacked up contrast ratios.
 
Its pretty apparent what the problem is..

Tricky memory allocation + a boat load of s*** running on the OS side of things that's non-gaming specific making it even harder (Kinect, Snap, etc..)

Maybe a better memory architecture and this wouldn't be a problem, maybe not having all these resource heavy applications running..

Seems developers are gonna have to find the trick to find a way to manage memory allocation between the game and the Xbones bells and whistles..

I thought that each OS handled it own functions and each OS had allocated memory? i.e. the video game OS (whatever it's called) handles strictly game related functions and has something like 5 GB RAM to play with? Wouldn't each OS's RAM pool have its own pipeline for its own pool?
 
Kind of funny that the name a lot of people thought the X1 would be called is 720 and now 720 is plauging the X1 and making headlines in a much different way.
 
lol It's hard to stay positive about the xb1 after I started reading Gaf. A lot of what they say makes sense to me. ;(
Lol Gaf is like a bunch of 12 year fat girls picking on the hot poor girl,who comes back to HS reunion with the hottest guy,best job and looks better than ever,and isn't at fat tube of lard, who's husband only has sex with them when he to drunk to remember he's married to a fat POS. ffffff them!!!!! half of what they like I hate like Japanese RPG's,etc etc.They hate on games like Gears and Halo and praise games that seem shallow and atmostphere less comparitively. I stopped going there for most part and have been enjoying this hobby a great deal more.

All MS has to do destroy Sony in the US is drop kinect and sell for 349.99

You are definitely feeling some type of way. =D

I still think a lot of what they say makes sense in regards to MS pr. They pretty much are treating people like we are r******d monkeys.

So what I'm getting from this is that you only f*** hot guys. :crazy:

Increasing the contrast doesn't make textures better.
That comment was lol worthy.

wow thats a really detailed analogy, care to share.
 
Im 38 years old ,most of the girls I went to school with are mean fat bitchs..lol yeah I hate them.
 
Mark Rubin's comments are somewhat promising, but I would take them with a grain of salt. Microsoft pays his company Millions and Millions in advertising and dlc exclusivity dollars. If the guy has a negative perception of the Xbox One, he isn't really going to tell us how he feels.

That was my thought, too. His earlier confirmation unintentionally created some poor press for MS. He has a big, lucrative corporate relationship to protect there. So, I agree -- he is making a good explanation, but I think he is also being very careful to avoid saying anything that makes it sound as if the X1 hardware is at fault somehow.
 
Meh. As long as it runs fun then it's all good. Graphics are obviously gonna get better and better. If they were able to do as much as they did with the last two consoles, then we'll all be eating dinosaur eggs.
 
He used all those words to explain it when it would have been much easier and gained him much more respect if he had just said "because we're lazy and bad at our jobs".

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." :laugh:
 
For people expecting next gen console titles to outshine the PC port of the same game, just don't. If you already have a capable PC, then just get the game on PC if you are worried about not having max settings. No console has ever outshined PC when it comes to games offered both on PC and console because the PC port will always have more options and settings unlocked. And meanwhile, the rest like me without a super computer will simply game on our next gen console platform of choice.

The conspiracy ensues...... Ooohhh. lol
 
Watched the IGN video. The XO version of BF4 is upscaled to 1080p on your TV screen. What else needs to be said on the matter? So while playing the game on your PS4 or XO your still seeing the picture at 1080p resolution. So ultimately.............we have numersous threads on how 1080p is accomplished on these consoles?!? That's what all this crap is about?! Not to mention the textures look much better on the XO, but I digress....

COME ONE MATES!! THIS IS RE-DONK-U-LOUS!!:confused:
 
Maybe we'll get a native 1080Patch, for 1200 points down the road.:tounge:

Did you see "nicer textures" in quotes? I was sarcastically referring to other people claiming the contrast ratio makes the textures "better". I've already said many times the contrast ratio is a cheap trick. Reading comprehension, anyone?

So some of you hate gaf posters for justifiably calling Penello, Hyrb, and Leadbetter deceptive PR jockeys, and for disliking the console/games you like? Okay.

Meanwhile it's "sony lies and FUD" that have been saturating forums and social media, not Penello, Hyrb, and Leadbetter's PR bunk and falsehoods, right? Maybe if they had focused on exclusive games and features instead of fighting a losing specs war, there wouldn't be so much criticism of them.

The BF4 XB1 textures aren't any larger or more detailed than PS4. Cherry picking a frame where a texture hasn't fully loaded in yet is definitely something Leadbetter would do.

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.
