Watch_Dogs = PS4: 1080p/30fps, Xbox One: 960p/30fps

http://www.thearabgamer.com/2014/03/watch-dogs-1080p-on-ps4-960p-on-xbox.html

Called it ages ago.

Special shout out to mister X who thought that Watch Dogs' delay was because of the PS4 version (Over exaggerated wink.).

In this thread we discuss this and predict the next inferior Xbone multiplat.

bahahahahaha all for 500 dollars ladies

you get the best all from the cloud

Xbone is a beast

TCHBO

PC wins as usual:

• PC: up to 4K/framerate varies

Consoles still fighting for 2nd place

@MonsieurX: buy 5 gfx cards no thx

@MonsieurX: You own a Wii U.....lol

So the Xbox One version is an unplayable mess.

@lglz1337: wut

@Wasdie: you think this game will run 4k on a single card ?

So I need 5 graphic cards to run Watch Dog? wat?

....and?

It's now Resolution wars it seems.

@lglz1337: Depends on how well it's optimized. I'm sure a Titan, 290 ultra, or a 780ti could probably do it. May not be a steady 60fps constantly though. 4k is pretty demanding.

You cows wouldn't notice the difference anyway, especially when you couldn't tell if Killzone SF multiplayer was 960x1080p.

That's not the end of the world

Wtf is up with these crazy random resolutions on the Xbone? 960p WD and 792p TF whats next 867,5p?

@MonsieurX: bashes xbone and ps4 nonstop, owns a WiiU...oh the irony

pretty expected

will be interesting to hear DF's analysis, although I'm losing confidence in them lately.

I'll be playing the game at 1080p and 60fps with prettier graphics.

@Wasdie: hmmm ok interesting

@bodde1972: Marketing i reckon, heck apparently X1 games no longer have the resolution on the back of the game box any more it's such a PR **** storm.

PS4 version was always going to be the version to get because of the exclusive DLC. The better performance was kind of inevitable too.

To start the ball rolling. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say they'll be a confirmeddisparity between the boxes with next gen Witcher game.

Who the hell is the TheArabGamer.com? LOL!!! They don't even have a link to Ubisoft's conference. It may be true, but I'd rather see it on a Ubisoft site. There aren't any other sites confirming this at the moment. Right now, it's just a rumor. This game won't run at 4K smoothly on a PC. Maybe at 15-20fps. Hopefully this game will be good after all the delays. What's the frame rate?

And how's this relevant to this thread exactly?

Can't blame me since xbone and ps4 doesn't offer anything interesting yet

Wow so know the Xbox One is completely unplayable, right?....

Spoiled brats..... think they know what they are talking about....

Resolution ?

Pfft I say Smellsolution.

Gameplay = Importance

Someone has jokes.

LOL so true. I didn't notice really but then I kept looking at things in the distance. Then I compared it to the single player which things looked much better from far away. I thought something was wrong with my TV so every time I would be fiddling with the picture settings during multiplayer.

Well Sony fans didn't have a problem playing BF4 in 900p, so I can't imagine having an issue with 960p for this game.

well it wasn't upscaled to horrific proportions so I'm not surprised. 1080p IQ without technically being 1080p is quite impressive. Would take that over upscaled messes on Xbone. :). Although I do agree Guerrilla should have said.

Probably because it's not as simple as KZ being that res. The image in each frame is still full HD.

There's a reason why no analysis site picked up on it.

Uhm wow. Are cows really making a big deal out of 960p vs 1080p? Firstly, I'm willing to bet not a single person here could tell the difference side by side. Secondly, isn't this a good thing for lems? Seriously the games in the generation started out 720p vs 1080p (which is a pretty noticeable difference) and only after a couple of months Xbox titles are being announced at 900p and up . It won't be long before both consoles are producing nearly identical graphics with the same fame rate and resolution. I would expect that by the end of 2014 resolution won't even be a thing anymore, everything will be 1080p.

I can definitely understands dumb Cows not noticing this. Everything they look at on the PS4 looks like 1080P to them. What baffles me is how DF completely missed it. Seems like someone was paid off by Sony. How did all those other game sites completely miss this resolution change from SP to MP?

***************************************************************************

Yeah, they were paid by Sony to keep their mouths shut. There's no way this shouldn't have been caught.

Nothing much to discuss. 960p works for me. 1080p isn't what will ever make me buy a PS4. A compelling game will. 960p looks great, and while its a lower res than the PS4 version, for a open world game I have no issue with this. The PS4 is more powerful hardware than the One so I'm certainly not shocked it hit 1080p. But I'm a bit surprised they got the res this high for the One. Good times ahead. New preview looks great.

Edit: Provided this is officially confirmed.

Not too large a difference.

Chill, just going off what i've heard.

"The image displayed to the player is Full HD 1080p with ghosting. Full stop. The player sees Full HD 1080p, 1:1 mapping. 1920X1080p. The framebuffer renders every other frame at 960X1080p and stitches them together. Every frame on display is full HD 1080p, but the means to display the image are questionable."

It's getting tinfoil hatty in here. I like it. But still lol

haha killzone is full 1080p, well the campaign is and the difference between campaign and multiplayer is noticable. 1080p does make a difference, only a blind person wouldnt notice it

Lol, so you expect sites to suddenly know about a technique that as far as i know has never been used in a game before? It's easy not to catch something you're not looking for.

If the technique they're using is good enough to put out an image that people believe was 1080p then surely that just means they've got a damn good method.

They should have been honest but apart from that the spin i see is pretty funny. The picture looks good enough to be 1080p so what's the problem? It's hilarious the way lems suddenly act as if the game looks worse now when the only thing that's changed is the number on a piece of paper.

Lems owned once again, nothing to see here.

Ouch, another best on PC title.

here's the best explanation i've seen - http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=778172

i couldn't describe that as full HD.

full hd - render at 1920x1080

render at 960x1080, plug gaps with information from previous frames - that's not full hd.

but that is the explanation of the multiplayer. single player is full 1080p.

'In the single-player mode, the game runs at full 1080p with an unlocked frame-rate'

I find it amusing how all last gen, consolites (particularly Lems) would claim ownage over and over again over even SMALLER pixel differences. Sometimes as low as 702p vs 720p.

The difference between 1080p (PS4) and 960p (XB1), is a helluva lot bigger than the difference between 720p (360) and 644p(PS3). More than double, actually. In absolute terms, Lems are missing out on 230,400 pixels. In the last gen case of 644p, the inferior version would be missing only 97,280 pixels compared to a native 720p game.

Last gen that was literally all lems could hang their hat on. Now, "it's no big deal". "I can't tell the difference anyway".

Pathetic.

so?

Ahhh look... another resolution thread, with all the usual "XBone is crap" & "PC beats both of them" bullsh**.

It's from Thuway admittedly but i can't find anyone explaining it in a simpler form. It's really not as simple as the res is 960x1080p.

From what i've read it's rare that all assets are rendered in 1080p but the game is still considered native 1080p so it seems this whole thing is open to interpretation and it could be something we see in other games but are unaware of.

Barely anyone outside of GG really seems to know what it's all about properly.

Doesn't excuse the fact they weren't transparent though. That should be the main talking point.

I'd also point out they do some funny stuff with their servers too but were honest about that. No one has picked up on that yet it seems many companies and devs could be telling some less than honest truths when they claim they use dedicated servers.

since killzone MP looked amazing at half HD then 960p is amazing

So this title is only worth playing on PC then.
