Rumor – Titanfall on Xbox One Might Get Upgraded to 1080p on Launch

MP1st - Titanfall might be getting a resolution boost on the Xbox One shortly after its launch on March 11.

[allformats]

It's a lie. They're trying to build more hype. If this was going to happen, it'd happen from day one.

No one should ever trust EA, far less a source that claims to have close ties to it.

[4Sh0w]

Nah, I don't think it will be 1080p just more rumors to have something to fight about later. The beta was superb at 792p or whatever; games are not just about res and graphics. We've already seen res is not most important in regards to "visuals" and definitely "gameplay", there's a 900p exclusive that looks better than anything else on a console, there are 1080p games that play like a basic ps2 level platformer and still cost $60, so let the pixel counters count, hopefully those kind will be holding hands amongst themselves, still counting, lol while I play the hell out of Titanfall on my X1.

[GarrusVakarian]

I don't think it will be 1080p either.....if the beta had framerate dips into the 30's at 792p...then bumping the res up to 1080p would make the framerate unplayable.

It would be great....but no, i don't see this happening. In the words of Respawn...."framerate is king". They won't compromise the framerate even further just to reach 1080p...and so they shouldn't.

Sure, sure, dude. In your dreams!

[mewhy32]

There are those that want the most for their money and xbone is not that. Pay 100.00 for less is stupid just like ms hoped gamers would be when the said you have to take the nsa kinect, you can't trade used games, you have to be online, and we're doing it all for a whopping 499.99!!!! You'll love it!!!!! If you don't then get yourself a 360 http://youtu.be/2Z-PvKLHDOw

[alexkoepp]

Game is super fun. It's fun at 720p, if true it'll be fun at 1080p. Simple as that, really doesn't matter.

[u got owned]

highly doubt it, maybe 900p but 1080p hmmm... don't count on it.

[Eonjay]

This is getting dumb and I blame Respawn. They should just say what it is. But they wont so we can keep talking about it. Seriously, this is why I respect Kojima. He was like BOOM this is what it is. End of story.

[TomShoe]

It's possible, but I don't see what the point is. The XBOs upscaler was just going to output at 1080p (not native) anyways. Pushing the resolution would make the textures crappier, so why would you do that?

[SmielmaN]

If it was going to 1080p MS and respawn would be trumpeting it from the rooftops. This is PR hype to make ppl talk. It's working, but if it was true the developer and MS would yelling it at us with a megaphone. Don't believe it

[ProjectVulcan]

I seriously doubt the game will run any higher resolution than the beta because it would take a vast improvement in performance to manage it.

Sometimes I wonder if the best solution to stop people moaning is to have selectable resolution/performance.

You can have 1408 x 792 averaging near 60FPS, or you can have 1600 x 900 and locked solid to 30FPS. Two modes.

Then have the game collect data when it's online and see who actually goes for the higher resolution.

It might settle the argument, because I don't think many playing an online shooter would give up the framerate. Be interesting, anyway

[darthv72]

It will be 1080p, the scaler in the XB1 says hi.

I didnt say "native" though.

[VENOMACR1227]

Maybe I'm the only person, but I really could careless if its 1080 or 792. Of course I'd prefer 1080 lol but the game is fun to play and to me that's the selling point for this game.

[dantesparda]

"Rumor – Titanfall on Xbox One Might Get Upgraded to 1080p on Launch"

Why? MS fanboys claim they dont care about res and claim framerate is king. So Respwan instead of worrying about upping the res, work on upping the framerate so it doesnt dip to the 30's. Make it 720p or sub720p if you have to, to achieve that. And dont worry cuz MS fanboys dont care about res anyways.

@ 4show, who i think is just an alternate account for PowerVR

Like imt558 said, "in your dreams" kid. Ghosts on the X1 looks better and performs than Titanfall

[SilentNegotiator]

"there's a 900p exclusive that looks better than anything else on a console"

Really? How long can people live in denial?

[danthegamerfiend]

Im with venomacr1227 who cares what the resolution will be. As long as it doesnt affect the gameplay and overall fun of the game. Why does it matter. I know i will be enjoying the shit out of this game when it comes and resolution will be a thing of the past. For anyone to say that Ghosts runs better then this game, needs to sober up from whatever crazy juice they are drinking.

[Xsilver]

it's too hard believe because you think something like this would of been announced already since the release of the game is so close.

[bleedsoe9mm]

what if it depends if ms gets the update out on time and respawn doesn't want to promise things that it doesn't have control over

[cozomel]

"what if"

what if its not?

[brich233]

If Ubisoft was able to do it with Assassins Creed on PS4, than respawn will be able to do it for their game also.

[Xsilver]

notice you said "PS4"

[starchild]

It's possible, but fairly unlikely.

[GarrusVakarian]

Lol, what? It doesn't work like that...different game, different devs, different system entirely.

AC4 on PS4 before it was patched ran at locked 30fps 900p....obviously Ubisoft thought the PS4 could handle a bump up to 1080p....and it did, it runs at locked 30fps at 1080p.

But if Titanfall is dipping into the 30's at 792p....then why would Respawn up the res to 1080p? It would be an unnecessary addition and one that would further hinder the framerate. They 'could' do it....but they shouldn't. Framerate should be king in games like these....Respawn said that themselves-

"Digital Foundry: 1080p60 on Xbox One?

Drew McCoy: We'll see how performance goes. Frame-rate is king."

http://www.eurogamer.net/ar...

[loulou]

but everyone should trust you allformats/dedicatedtogamers right??

i dont think that it will be 1080p either though

[dantesparda]

so wait,... should we trust you then? Just saying.

[Edsword]

It would be ridiculous for MS(or respawn) to wait until they launch the game and then say, oh by the way we hit 1080p. It might deliver a cool talking point, but all they have done to defend the resolution, they would basically be telling the consumer, oh 1080p does matter. Could you imagine if they did this and then the game struggled in the fps department? It would be suicidal. This ranks as one of the dumbest rumors I have heard yet. The game will run at a resolution below 1080p and it will upscale to 1080p.

[Angainor7]

@ Hatsune Go back to your cave and play Knack troll..

[Elit3Nick]

So people shouldn't trust EA's word about their own game, but it's ok to trust people like CBOAT who got/is getting banned for false information that the fanboys here desperately wanted to believe.

[dantesparda]

Umm, its not EA saying this, its just another person claiming to have inside info just like CBOAT. So by your own figuring, we shouldnt believe this guy either otherwise you are just being a hypocrit and fanboyish

"A Titanfall community member going by the name “DucatiRossi46″ who works “closely with Respawn and EA” has allegedly been told by the studio that “they are aiming for 1080p at launch following the Xbox One patches“.

According to him, “there will be 2 patches pre-release, which should get it to 1080p following the Xbox One patches.”

Nothing more than a rumor, the beta was already dipping into the 30's, so i doubt it

[alejandroelputo]

Its hard to hear xbone and 1080p together when the ps4 is not on the same sentence

[Bigpappy]

If they were to do that and make people expect 1080p then not deliver, that will hurt way more than help. That makes no marketing sense what so ever. May increase day one a tad for those who see this as important for what ever reason.

For the record I hope they don't try for 1080p, as I believe that would end up hurting the gameplay. That is a stupid move for this type of game. If they can get the res up and maintain the frame rate, great. Else leave it to heck alone.

Respawn said they were going to up the res, but I agree with them not announcing a res until they have one that does not hurt the game. You should never promise until you are sure that is the best you could deliver without hurting the overall game.

[StrangerX]

Huh? Why not? I mean, Assassin's creed wasn't 1080p when it came out on PS4 and was updated to that resolution so in regards to Titanfall's resolution, its very much possible since Xbox one was able to handle Forza5 which it has way more quality textures and achieved 1080p/60fps.,so even thou I don't really care if the resolution is bumped or not to 1080p, I rather them take their time in adding and perfecting the server and do all those 1080p higher textures and so on in their sequel with obviously a new graphic engine. But the 1080p bump is very possible even more with the updated SDK tools.

[bornsinner]

so you wouldn't buy a highly rated game if it wasn't 1080p?... wow what an idiot. i believe it will probably be 900p but even if it remains 792p as long as it's hd or sub hd we cant really tell the difference. anyone who says different are just kidding themselves. and i play on a 42 inch sony bravia 653 tv, sure side by side it looks a lil smoother but the difference is tiny.

[cozomel]

Yeah, you just keep telling yourself that. Maybe if you believe it hard enough, it'll become true.

[JeffGUNZ]

I wouldn't be surprised if it was 1080 by launch considering the engine used isn't very demanding. I don't think they can guarantee until after the patch is launched and verified. The beta was fantastic, so if it's that I'd be happy, but I don't think 1080 is totally out of the question.

[cozomel]

"considering the engine used isn't very demanding"

Yet the game drops to 35fps and is only 792p

[bleedsoe9mm]

giantbomb reported titanfall was running at 1080p at the LA preview event on the xb1 hardware , he never mentioned it again , making it sound like he broke embargo on that news , which would make sense if respawn was hoping to get 1080 for launch but was dependent on microsoft getting the hardware update out and working on schedule

[bennissimo]

1080p is irrelevant. This game is awesome at any resolution.

Can we all agree to put this resolution crap to bed?

[xx4xx]

I doubt it'll run at 1080p, but not going to venture a guess on final resolution. There are some things i can be patient with....I can wait the 2 weeks or so when it's confirmed or releases.

[kopicha]

doubt so... obviously fake just to hype. it can bearly run consistently at 60fps during the beta.. unless they intend to change the fps to 30fps which is the last thing they want to do for this game

[SilentNegotiator]

792p to 1080p? Yeah f***ing right.

It's doubtful that it will even get to the 900p that they teased might happen, seeing as they haven't paraded about anything other than it being "def above 720p" (said through their friend at Epic Games).

[badboy776]

ok

[danthegamerfiend]

at Hatsune-Miku People said that about the ps3 and look how that one turned out. Come back when the PS4 has a fully fledged multiplayer title to compare to.

[pwnsause_returns]

I dont get why a game thats based on the source engine cant play in 1080p native on the x1....

i mean, it should be able to

[Fireseed]

You do realize that performance is determined by the quality of the assets and not age of the engine... right?

[kiz2694]

I think the engine has been heavily edited and bloated (going by the huge install size for both X1 and PC) so it will be a little more straining than just stock source.

[starchild]

Some of you don't seem to understand how game engines work. You put WAY too much importance on which engine a game is using.

In reality a game engine doesn't tell you a whole lot about how good a game will look or how advanced the graphics will be. There are Cryengine games that don't look anywhere near as good as the Crysis games, for example.

Or to give another example...the difference between the very worst looking UE3 game and the best UE3 game is literally night and day. We're talking a VAST difference.

Thief on PC is in the top 5 best looking games on the platform and it uses the Unreal Engine 3. But it has tessellation, high quality light shafts, parallax occlusion mapping, screen space reflections, contact hardening shadows, bokeh depth of field and whole bunch of other graphical effects and techniques that make it an outstanding looking DirectX11 title.

Engines are not static things the way some of you imagine. They evolve and improve over time, and are even radically altered on a game to game basis.

[colt-of-tipton]

Hope this is true but even if its not not really bothered, beta looked good enough for me and is as fun as any multiplayer shooter ive had for a while , roll on march 14th !

[iamnsuperman]

Unlikely. Resolution tends not to change after a game goes Gold. I can see it being 900p

[Manic2014]

True, but like Black Flag on PS4, it may get a patch to bring it up to 1080p. It's highly doubtful due to the recent resolution difficulties for the xb1.

[AutoCad]

no problems once new sdk is hands of developers.
Its possible respawn has had theirs therefore these graphical updates.

gameplay makes this game.

[Manic2014]

@Autocad
I'm still hoping the Xb1 outputs 1080p native soon. Hopefully the new SDK get them closer for higher graphical fidelity.

[MorePowerOfGreen]

Multi plats on PS4 were patched to 1080p on day one of retail. COD/ACBF

It's crazy how Sony fans turn 1080p into a idol/god, treating 1080p and xb1 in the same sentence as blasphemous nonsense. 1080p issues on XB1 has nothing to do with PS4 and everything to do with unfinished XB1 SDK/Dev tools.

Like I said, when the resolution differences rumors leaked for Durango and Orbis the original rumors said the Dev tools were to blame due to MSFT being far behind and the hate bandwagon ignored that and/or swept that part of the rumors under the rug, solely focusing on the differences of launch window games and not the real reason.

Based on what they did with Twitch the new SDK wait should be worth it as well.

EDIT
@Lukas_Japonicus

Say what!? LMAO

Sounds salty

[GarrusVakarian]

Man, give it a rest. Being you must be so tiring. You talk more about Sony fans than you do anything else.

Those PS4 games received the 1080p patches because the devs deemed the PS4 powerful enough to run them at 1080p.....whereas patching Titanfall to 1080p while it can't even hold 60fps at 792 is illogical.

60fps >>>> 1080p in competitive MP FPS, i hope they don't compromise on framerate.

@Autocad

"just how thief on ps4 drops to 9fps right?"

Just like how Killzone SF runs at 1080p locked 30fps (30-60fps without locking), right? Thief was a mess on the X1 too, check the reviews, it dipped below 30fps even at 900p. Think before you type, otherwise you make yourself look foolish.

Plus, what i said is fact, the devs deemed the PS4 powerful enough to run CoD and AC4 in 1080p...so they patched 1080p in...and the PS4 runs them fine....so i don't get the point of your comment.

[iamnsuperman]

Firstly, You are talking about launch games that have been ported over from last gen systems

Secondly, you cite two examples. I said it was unlikely as resolution tends not to change. No definite not just unlikely

[AutoCad]

@Lukas just how thief on ps4 drops to 9fps right?

[GarrusVakarian]

What sounds salty? Im BUYING this game, the beta was great, i loved it and Respawn will be getting my money...so no saltiness from me. The only salt i see are from your comments, day in day out. So you calling me salty completely backfires when you realise not only am i buying TF, but im buying an X1 just for it.

All i did was state fact, games on PS4 (AC4 and CoD) were patched to 1080p because the devs deemed it possible...that is fact. That is literally what happened.

It's also fact that TF has signifticant framerate dips at 792p- http://www.eurogamer.net/ar...

Again, fact. But you and a couple of others in this article use the logic that..."if AC4, CoD can receive patches for 1080P on PS4...then so can Titanfall on X1".....but it doesn't work like that, devs are only going to patch 1080p in if they think the console can handle it. 1080p costs power, fact.

So is it not logical to say that upping the res of Titanfall to 1080p will incur even further framerate drops? You can't just add 1080p in and expect the framerate not to suffer. As far as this whole "1080p SDK" thing is concerned, i have little knowledge in this, so i won't act like i know what im talking about. But if that does help with running the game in 1080p then that will be fantastic...but in the X1's current state and Titanfalls state in the beta.....a 1080p bump would definitely hinder the already fluctuating framerate. Fact.

I also find it hilarious that AutCad is getting any agrees with a comment like that, there are tons of games on PS4 that run at 1080p locked 30fps or ABOVE that look better visually than Thief. To actually think that thief's performance on the PS4 is anything to do with the PS4 itself is downright stupid, the devs themselves admit to the game "not being perfect".

Im getting a lot of disagrees from blind, denial ridden Xbox fans that can't see basic logic and facts. They assume im just a Sony fanboy bashing Titanfall.....how wrong you are.

[Mr-Dude]

@morepowerofgreen

And what if these "New" sdk also doesn't do the trick? What is the next excuse? Lazy developers or the supposed secret hardware? And don't you think Sony doesn't also keep upgrading with firmware and a new sdk?

Man, we Sony fans can be in denial but you guys break records...

[4Sh0w]

Lukas nothings final and while you keep posting the Digital Foundry link its still noted that the beta ran very well overall. Also Im not saying it will be 900p but you have no idea what goes on behind the scenes with further optimizations it is entirely possible or not to hit 900p with a stable framerate. Regardless whether you are buying the game you can't make any matter of fact statements, the same way you acknowledge devs were able to go back and optimise for better res with AC BF you don't know for sure what Respawn may or may not be able to do with Titanfall, not even Digital Foundry ruled anything out and of course they've made some errors themselves already this gen with res claims.

[DoesUs]

Still going to Misterxmedia (AKA iMad on N4G). Lol, TF won't be 1080p, new tools are not going to see 50% improvements. Sadly no tools can help with an underpowered GPU and bad memory setup 8) OUCH!

[SteamPowered]

Highly unlikely. Microsoft would have shouted it from the rooftops. And then thanked the Cloud.

[u got owned]

XD

[solidmasta]

Yeah RIGHTTTTTT...RAYMAN LEGEND IS RUNNING AT 720P ON X1... and they want 1080p for titan fall

[maniacmayhem]

Rayman Legend runs at 1080p on Xbox One....where did you get that it ran at 720p?

@AutoCad
Yea, I know he read the headline and couldn't wait to run with it in any X1 article. Not truly knowing what the article was really about. which makes his comment even funnier.

[AutoCad]

he probably saw the headline of that video the guy made being funny.

[webeblazing]

its easy to spot the fanboys. theyre quick to bash and the biggest hypocrites.

[maniacmayhem]

doubt it, there hasn't been one FPS game on both systems that ran 1080p and a steady 60fps.

[Mister_G]

Isn't COD Ghosts on PS4 1080p and 60fps?

http://uk.ign.com/wikis/xbo...

[maniacmayhem]

Funny that you mentioned that, I just read a comment on top that said CoD was patched 1080p/60fps for the PS4.

But I still doubt that Titanfall will.

But if it is, more power to it.

[Tedakin]

He said "steady". 60fps hasn't been locked in many games where it didn't drop frames.

[scott182]

^
COD actually goes above 60fps on the ps4...

[CharlesSwann]

Not like it would be hard. Something has to get knocked down though. Always sacrifices and with the bone, more than most.

[No1up]

It would be cool, but not necessarily needed.

[Tedakin]

I hope this happens, not for the sake of visual quality, but for the LULZ online. Reading the comments would be HI-LAR-IOUS.

[bumnut]

Id rather them patch in more players

[thehitman]

LOL... pigs falling too? Or they talking about it will just be upscale to 1080p?

[MasterCornholio]

I dont think it will happen.

[BattleTorn]

I'd like it to, but yeah I'm not betting on it

[jay2]

All those other last gen games would be in 1080P already, don't believe this.

[JeffGUNZ]

Huh, the update hasn;t gone out till March 4 I believe, so how would they have been bumped up?

[BcozoftheImplication]

It should easily run at 1080p cause the textures and visuals are s**t!! Meh...

[christocolus]

Lmao. An xbx one article comes out with a rumor about an xbx one game being bumped up to 1080p at launch and all im seeing are negative comments from a section of gamers who do not own the console and who claim not to like the game. Seriously you guys need to give it a rest. Just look at the first, second and majority of the comments here? Does the rumor scare you? Are you guys so afraid of the game hitting 1080p at launch or is it the fact that the xbx one might actually now be able to output more 1080p games due to the updated sdk that bothers you?are you guys developers now? Do you work at respawn or plan to get titanfall on xbox one? I dont get it, does this article even mention ps4 anywhere? So whats with all the negative comments?....smh.

Guys pls if you have nothing reasonable or mature enough to add then move on and allow those who are actually interested in this game to make their comments.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

Its pretty amazing how this drew the attention of so many who wont be playing the game on Xbox One. Par for the course my friend, par for the N4G Course.

[GarrusVakarian]

"Guys pls if you have nothing reasonable or mature enough to add then move on and allow those who are actually interested in this game to make their comments."

It's not as simple as that though, my comments in this article were simply stating how it would be illogical for Respawn to bump a game up in res, if the game already runs below 60fps at 792p. Despite the fact ive said multiple times that im buying an X1 for TF, i get called "salty". I didn't say anything bad about MS, X1 or TF in any way, all i did was use basic logic in terms of how upping a games resolution will harm its framerate and how in a game like this, framerate should be king.

Some people don't want mature discussion, they just want to hear what they want to hear.

Do you care to explain to me what this SDK update is that i keep hearing about?

[christocolus]

Dude chill out. i read your comment and i wasnt referring to you. I really dont care if its bumped up to 1080p at launch or not. I enjoyed the beta and if it is released with the current res, i wouldnt mind one bit.

[JeffGUNZ]

Lukas,

I hear what you're saying and personally don't think it will hit 1080, more like 900 probably. Yet, you're referring to a beta, which the main goal was to stress test their servers, hence why they made it open after a few days. They could have the final build with the SDK update in place and just did the beta on the previous build.

It's not like we played a demo of this game, it was a beta. It will most likely hit 900p, but all we can really do is just wait less than two weeks and we will see. We really won't hear anything probably till March 4, when they do they second update for X1, which they already said is in anticipation for TF. I honestly just hope the update allows for preloading that day. Game was fantastic at the beta, so 792p was fine and anything over that is a bonus, as long as it doesn't compromise the gameplay.

[GarrusVakarian]

@JeffGUNZ

That makes sense, maybe the beta was old build, that would explain the framerate dips a month before launch. I really hope the final build runs at 900p, i really do, it would be much better image quality than 792p....which quite frankly looks odd when upscaled to 1080p, especially on bigger TV's.

But more importantly, i want a solid 60fps or very, very close that. 900p @ 60fps? Great, but if not i want the res gimped, not the framerate.

[fanboysmackdown]

Well said christ. I own an X1 but won't be playing Titanfall because I'm into single player games but the game still looks like a lot of fun. It's the usual PS bs on here from the crybabies who won't be able to play the game because they have Sony poms poms shoved up their twats. If it hits 1080p, that's an added bonus and a huge middle finger to Sony's legion of sucks.

[aragon]

grain of salt, rumors rumors, maybe they are doing some insider hunting you never know

[stamps79]

Stabilize 60FPS first, Resolution second.

[Mister_G]

Lol :)

[PrinceOfAllSaiyans]

If a game that has the graphics of COD4, no campaign, and only 6v6 can't get up to 1080p them Xbox One is in trouble. I doubt it will be 1080p on Xbox One tho it will be either 792p like how it is currently or at the most 900p. Which another reason that's its stupid to buy a Xbox One for TF when Xbox 360 will run it about the same and PC way better.

[Rustynail]

You do realize that some other studio is wokring on Titanfall 360 right?

[Mexxan]

Load of bollocks. If the beta was barely above 720 with all the tearing this is just wishful tugging...

[Tedakin]

How is 792 "barely" 720?

[corvusmd]

Would be cool I guess, but honestly it sounds a little fishy that it would be done with patches...not sure how much I can believe this rumor. I can see it hitting 900p, but the only way I see it doing 1080p/60FPS smoothly is if they are using DX 11.2...but seeing as this game was in development LONG before the new SDKs became available...I doubt they implemented that. That being said, even in the beta it looked in ran great at 792p...and direct feed comparisons with the maxed PC version yielded very little difference. SO for a game like this, making sure it runs at a high FPS smoothly is much more important than the 1080p goal...if you can do both go for it, if not...no big loss.

[DoesUs]

Using DX11.2 features doesn't magically unlock something, or allow something to suddenly run at a 50% increase in power. DX11.2 is a feature set same as every DX in the past.

[BOLO]

Dat Titanfall hype train! http://i.qkme.me/3v45fs.jpg

[_FantasmA_]

Right...and I'm Carl Sagan.

[lunatic0001]

I don't really care it could be 720p,900p,1080p...as long as the game is fun as hell...which it was for me...what is wrong with these gamers these days...all they care about is the technical shit...fuck if the game is good as long as I can brag about 1080p 60 fps...its all good...idiots

[Jag-T1000]

Whatever!

[Master-H]

I don't think the xbox is capable of running that, unless they lower the texture resolution down to the alpha resolution like CBOAT claimed or something crazy like that...900p possibly, but full HD highly unlikely imo but we'll see.

[BDG]

And if you believe that you probably still waiting to buy the kinect game where you can interact with Milo (without a script)

[killzone619]

lol thats a lie

[LAWSON72]

No it is called a rumor

[assdan]

This is about as dumb as the people that are convinced that the res will be downgraded to 720p.

[ninjahunter]

Might get downgraded to 720p
"Shows them right, how dare microsoft not be sony"
Might get upgraded to 1080p
"Pfft, pathetic, how dare microsoft compete with sony"

[MCTJim]

Dont care if it 1080 or not..The game is just plain fun!!

[KontryBoy706]

upSCALED. Fixed

[SynestheticRoar]

You believe this. I have a bridge to sell you. lol At half price.

[mochachino]

Its not all about the resolution. Games have to be good first.

[static360]

i don't give a flying f**k, i just want to play.

First great comment here! Agreed brother, bubbles up for the chuckle!

xone sucks, it cant do this it cant do that. ill tell you what it can do, play titanfall. dont matter if its on 360 or pc. it matters that it isn't on ps4. thats it. give it up. no matter if titanfall sucks, itll still play at a higer res than ps4 and have a better framerate. since ps4 titanfall is at 0000p and 0fps. those are troubling numbers.

Titanfall hands down is the best looking fps out right now on any platform my god the game looked amazing in the beta on the Xbox One so leave it alone

[madjedi]

No halo 5 will likely look amazing, titanfall i have heard from numerous people is anything but amazing looking even on pc.

Stop hyping titanfall as the second coming of christ and maybe it won't get nitpicked to death.

Anything over 720 is a plus for the gamers. Won't be surprised if it isn't and I definitely won't be upset if it isn't.

[andron]

Sure, magic of the cloud will do that ehh...

[bparks1987]

People look way to much into resolution. People act like 720P is as bad as 480P. You guys do realize that most people have smaller then 50 inch tv's and if that is the case according to multiple websites. Generally speaking, if you sit more than 10 feet away from your TV, and your display isn’t bigger than 50 inches diagonally, you won’t be able to tell the difference between 720 and 1080.

Wrong. You can tell the difference between 480p, 720p, and 1080p if all of them are on 4 inch screens of a cellphone.

True the difference isn't AS appreciated on a smaller screen, but there is still a noticeable difference.

The problem with the graph is that it pretends once you are out of the 'viewing range', that's it...it's all for not. Which is quite wrong. Even outside of that range, you still see benefits.

The reason why people look into resolution is simple. More looks better, and there is no excuse in 2014 for it not to be 1080p the vast majority of the time.

Given that 1080p tv's have been around for cheap for 10 years now...I should know because I got a 30" in 2004 for $499.

So yes, it kind of is important that a cheap tv bought when the PS2/Xbox were the lead consoles on the market would still struggle to be maxed out by an Xbox, two generations later. Are we supposed to wait until 2020 and a third generation?

So by 2020 4ktv's will be had for cheap, and maybe finally an Xbox can regularly hit 1080p. Hell already you can buy 4ktv's for under a $1000, yet people still apologize for 1080p not being met.

Also people act as if 1080p is so hard to hit. Many PC gamers have been gaming in 1080p since around then, 2004-2005. Hell before I got my other HDTV, I had my CRT which had a max res of 2048x1536. So I was gaming in 1536p in 2004.

Of course videocards struggled then to hit such res, but when I got my old ATI 5850 for $269 in late 2009, it was able to push DX11 games like Dirt 2 with a deferred rendered engine at 1536.

So why is it Dirt 2 on an old ATI 5850, a cheap midrange card from years ago, and it only had 1 GB of memory, pump out a deferred rendered, DX11 game at 1536p at about 50 FPS...but the XB1 needed a forward rendered, last gen tech, 1080p/60 crap for Forza in 2014 for $499 unit?

Also, who sits 10 feet away from their tv? I'm sure some do, but at any time they can pull up a lazy boy or something.

So yes, you can tell the difference between the two resolutions. You may not get ALL the benefit, but you can tell between the two, and appreciate having a better resolution.

..and yes the human eye can perceive HUNDREDS of frames per second.

[idontcare]

this game could be in 480p and would still be more fun than anything else i've played last and current gen.

can't wait for march 13th!

[Ra3030]

This has become a daily dog and pony show. Those tied to the this game Respawn, EA and Micro$$$oft will stop at nothing to keep them AI Bots and this train wreck in the news everyday.

[cruzngta]

It will most likely hit 900p/60fps and that will be more than enough. For anyone comparing Forza 5 at 1080p and saying it cant be done without big sacrifices - that is old already. Forza 5 was a launch title rushed to be out in time and they have gotten the new sdks which were not out back then to better utilize the hardware. Also, the driver updates in March will also help to achieve the coveted 1080p which now seems to be the 'holy grail' of gaming. My PS4 had plenty of games in 1080p as does my XB1 so I am happy either way. Titanfall will be a beast and Infamous is gonna be insane. Can't wait till next month.

[jamstorr86]

The issues developers are having with reaching 1080 on xbox one won't suddenly disappear after the API update. If it does it shows what a awful job Microsoft have done in the first place in building the console.
I do think people should focus more on how fun the games are rather than how many pixels are shown on a screen. Honestly some of the most fun I have had gaming recently has been on indie games with terrible graphics.

[oldassgamer]

If it does hit 1080p (which I hope it does), what other parts of the game will suffer? This is going to be interesting. Get your popcorn ready!

[ziggurcat]

frame rate is the only thing that would suffer.

and since frame rate is king over at respawn, i doubt they'd sacrifice it for a higher resolution. i see it being a maximum of 900p, but only if frame rate doesn't suffer as a result.

[CartBlanche]

I love the fact that it "might" get upgraded. So very non-commital. It "might" also get upgraded to 4K!! As a few people have said, a definite ploy to get sales with the non-commital promise of an upgrade. They should put their money where their mouths are and promise to put it in, or STFU about the resolution and let the gamers enjoy it at what ever resolution it plays best at on the Xbox One.

[fanboysmackdown]

If this does become true, Sony sissies will be hiding under grannies apron.

[jamstorr86]

Titanfall, while isn't ugly, isn't the prettiest game out there. If they were struggling to get 1080 throughout development on a game that doesn't have the best visuals and also requires 60fps due to the frantic nature of the game, I highly doubt they have suddenly discovered a way to get 1080p weeks before the launch. It has gone gold, what it is now is what u will get. If u want 1080 get the pc version. Otherwise xbox fanboys need to suck it up and be happy with what they get.

[payikick]

1080p/60fps Reality if it probably ran Flat shaded Poly's (Trolling)

720p Is more of a Reality with mid settings

Even if The level of detail and texture res is at the lowest possible settings this will be highly doubtful. Titanfall may be running on a modified last gen engine, The fact still remains that the hardware specs on the Xbone could not support full 1080p, at least on this game.

[BigErn]

Look, I own a PS4 and not an xbox one. But the resolution wars have gotten pretty ridiculous. Let them enjoy their flagship game, whether it's 720p or 2,000p. Give it a rest.

[niknokseyer]

That's good news. Titanfall and Wolfstein is 1080p 60fps on XBox One. to be honest I'm fine for Titanfall being 900p on XBox One. Played the beta and it's still awesome at 792p.

[CrowbaitBob]

I gotta LOL at all the commenters that didn't even know what 1080p was six months ago and now they're all experts on how impossible it is to achieve on specific hardware.

Noone on these boards has any experience coding for either the PS4 or the Xbox One, but somehow looking at the performance of a few launch titles is all it takes to know everything there is to know about both systems' capabilities.

[Illusive_Man]

It won't be long until most games are 1080p/30/60fps on both consoles. At that point, the initial selling point of the PS4 being more powerful is moot. The truth is at the end of the day, despite some differences in architecture the power of both console is very similar.
