Respawn Confirms No 1080p For Titanfall On Xbox One

Just two weeks ahead of its March 14th release, Respawn is still unable or unwilling to confirm the display resolution for Titanfall on Xbox One. What has been ascertained, however, is that the game won’t hit 1080p on the system with Respawn’s Vince Zampella confirming on Twitter that rumours that full-HD will be supported are untrue.

[5yN4MWQU]

This was confirmed like a month ago.

[kingdip90]

Well some "insiders" said the game would run 720p then another "insider" said 1080p after optimization and re spawn refused to comment. So now it's confirmed no 1080p even though it was pretty clear from the start that it wouldn't be....

[Hatsune-Miku]

Logic commence

[ic3fir3]

Cboat? loool
titanfall run 900p or 1080p fact

[Eonjay]

@ic3fir3

"titanfall run 900p or 1080p fact"

They just said it wont be 1080p so I assume you are talking about a PC setup.

When the developer, tells you, it wont be 1080p, believe them (in my Maya Angelou voice)

[MasterCornholio]

@ic3fir3

If the developer says no 1080P then it wont be in 1080P.

[FamilyGuy]

I just want to see the head-to-head of 360 vs X1 for the retail release.

I wonder what the first "AAA", 1080p FPS will be on the X1, will it ever happen?

[VENOMACR1227]

Anyone catch the header of the article, release March 14? Um, it's March 11 (in the states).

[Sarcasm]

Whoever thought they would push an additional 2X in pixels has no idea how hardware works. Actually there's a lot of that going around.

[assdan]

Did this really need to be confirmed? Lol. I'm guessing it will be around 792p. Maybe a little higher, maybe a little lower. I really do like how straight forward respawn has been though.

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

So... 900p FTW lol, I don't complain about 900p, it's close enough ;)

[GarrusVakarian]

No 1080p is disappointing, but i care more about if the framerate is going to be as...fluctuating (for lack of a better word) as the beta was or not.

Whether the final build is 792p, 900p or somewhere in-between, just make sure the framerate is solid 60fps or 60fps the vast majority of the time.

@ic3fir3

The denial in people like you is absolutely astounding, you get told by the very people who make the game that it's not going to be 1080p, but you say it's a "fact" that it still could be.....wow.

[SilentNegotiator]

It was confirmed by common sense when the beta was 792p...

[darthv72]

And resolution changes the appeal of the game how exactly?

If the game is fun, get it. Personally Im getting it for 360 as i dont have an XB1 or a PC capable to play it. Last time i built a gaming PC was for when Half Life 2 came out.

Yeah, im pretty much out of the loop and Im okay with that.

[mcarsehat]

people need to stop going to neogaf, its not worth the risk.

[malokevi]

It'll be 2160p. Fact. Incidentally, pigs fly.

HI LUKE!!!!!! XD

[TheGreatAndPowerful]

Awww...that's a shame.

[pyramidshead]

I'm imagining the outrage now if Cboat is vindicated.

The comment section here alone would be glorious and tonnes of fun.

[mikegeezy69]

lol that second "insider" clearly was not a fanboy or anything. emphasis on CLEARLY lol.

[mewhy32]

Well o f course there won't be any 1080p on the xbone. I mean it's not like this game is coming out on PS4 or something. I'll get the resolution I want from this game on my PC.

[mp1289]

Its confirmed, Microsoft payed EA money so that gamers wouldn't enjoy 1080p Titanfall on consoles.

[Jessika_S]

Everyone here keeps saying that it runs at 900p when in fact it actually runs at 792p, I think once it got leaked that it ran at 720p they said it didn't so they pushed it a bit up.

[thorstein]

What about on X360? Will it look better on that system?

[Sci0n]

Titanfail, so the one none exclusive game that X1 owners are trying to crown as the messiah of all games will not be in full native 1080p on a 500 dollar next gen brand new console? go figure. Picking this game up on PC or 360 if you are interested won't be so bad after all lol.

[webeblazing]

but the order not rendering the gsme in 1080p doesnt matter. i had to. the million articles to belittle a console is sad, even tho i cant stand ms, we had how many months of this. regular gamers barely get news for a website that is meant for gamers.

and honestly wolfenstein looks better. we all know the people at respawn. they just want to make a game they want to make, and dont care about gfx. im glad they are not making cod every 2yrs. hopefully they make something different after this.

[kopicha]

ya i remember few days back someone said there is something call "optimization" because of the rumored article while many dont think that is possible and he was so positive about it and think others are stupid for making claim it is not possible that the rumor is true. And with logic we knew it is not possible when the rumor is being posted

[Hellsvacancy]

I know but some crazy people think Respawn are going to magically patch it to 1080p

[jackanderson1985]

didn't they patch COD and AC4 to 1080p on the PS4? it's not exactly magic but i do doubt it'll be 1080p and if it's not at launch then they won't patch it

[die_fiend]

But they didn't do that on Xbox one. 1080p on Xbox one is the point at which it becomes magic

[badz149]

@jackanderson1985

it's not magic if the hardware is capable but will be magic if the hardware is incapable to begin with.

[FamilyGuy]

@jackanderson1985

Optimizing a game so that you can double the resolution is not something you can just patch in the short time they did. It was an unlock because the PS4 was capable of that resolution from the start.

Those games got patched 1080p because the devs thought MS would be ahead this gen and wanted to follow their "parity" rules. They INTENTIONALLY held the PS4 versions at a lower resolution on their retail release to follow MSs rule and unlocked it's full potential with a patch that was designed from the start. Patches and DLC don't break MS parity rules. Currently, no big named 3rd party publishers gaf about MSs parity demand because the X1 is far behind the PS4 in sales and therefore can't make demands.

MS is still restricting self-publishing devs and that's why the PS4 is getting so many more indie games than the X1. MSs rule about releasing at the same time or first on their platform is causing devs to ignore the X1 altogether.

[Rowco147]

Wondering if x one will look much better than.360 version

[rafaman]

People get jealous because it is a exclusive game and it will be awesome. Its just natural they try to say bad things about this game. Nothing but Sony fanboys jealousy

[vitullo31]

Yeah they must be so jealous since they cant play it on the pc... at 1080p..... /s

[thezeldadoth]

^ but they bash PC too, and nintendo. They only magically own a PC while talking about titanfall and bashing xbox one.

[MysticStrummer]

"They only magically own a PC while talking about titanfall and bashing xbox one."

There's nothing magical about owning a PC that's capable of running TF. They're very common.

[badz149]

a wise man once said;

"One does not simply own a PC by magic"

http://cdn.memegenerator.ne...

[chrisarsenalsavart]

Playstation fanboy will play it on his pc while playing infamous SS.
Thank you!

[BitbyDeath]

"They only magically own a PC while talking about titanfall and bashing xbox one."

Wouldn't they also magically own a PC in order to comment on N4G?

[HmongAmerican]

You are saying like people need to buy the xbox to play this game on. Well, many people actually play this game on PC. Exclusive mean not release on other platform. Get your fact straight before spewing none sense.

[Jessika_S]

I'm a fan I don't care about resolution the game is incredibly fun the beta was great so I can only imagine being able to choose different Titans and waiting to play on the other maps. One thing is that this game is not that exclusive when you have it coming out on 2 other platforms Xbox 360 and PC. I believe they held back the Xbox 360 version on purpose to give the Xbox One some breathing room, I think the Xbox 360 version is going to look pretty close to the Xbox One version of the game and it might hold back the Xbox One from moving units at retail.

[Petebloodyonion]

Let me ask you all a simple question!
If you can all play TitanFall on PC (1080p/60 frames sec) then why did you all bought a PS4.

Except for Resogun,Killzone and Knack all the games can be found on PC
All of them run at 1080P and 60 frames/sec
You would already own Diablo3, and many indy games soon to be release on PS4.

You would all have saved 400$
with 400$ you could purchase the best version of:
Watchdog
Witcher 3
The Elder Scrolls Online
ETC.

Now before you hit the disagree button below at least answer the question!

[badz149]

@Petebloodyonion

"Except for Resogun,Killzone and Knack all the games can be found on PC..."

are you trying to say that nobody who bought the PS4 wanted to play those games? and you still ask

"why did you all bought a PS4." like seriously??

it's a more valid question if you ask "why do you even want to buy the XbOne when you can get TF on PC with higher setting?" that's if you are only interested in TF. many PS4 fanboys are interested in TF so, there's really no need for them to buy an XbOne just for it, right?

[Petebloodyonion]

@badz149

" it's a more valid question if you ask "why do you even want to buy the XbOne when you can get TF on PC with higher setting?" that's if you are only interested in TF. many PS4 fanboys are interested in TF so, there's really no need for them to buy an XbOne just for it, right?"

But here's my point why did you bought a PS4 then? Your actual 1080P/60 frames Titanfall PC can play all the ps4 games in better settings except 3 games that are exclusive to the ps4.

Again since it seem everyone here as easily a PC that can play Titan Fall at max setting then why bought a system that as (to this date) only 3 games that can't be played on your Pc?

As for me the record I don't own a next gen consoles (nor a 1080P pc) I don't see the point in investing 400$ (even less 500$) in a console that provide me with the same experience as my current one.
so I'll stick for the moment with my ps3 and 360 until a true next game gen blow me away (meaning not a game with a resolution boost compare to the old gen).

[BitbyDeath]

@Petebloodyonion,

PC doesn't have anything like PS+.
Since PS4 has come out i've gotten

Resogun
Contrast
Don't Starve
and Outlast

And haven't had to pay a cent since I last resubscribed a year or two ago (Thanks to stacking on cheap sales over the years). Subscription doesn't expire til sometime in 2015.

Those 4 games alone cost more than a yearly subscription.

[madjedi]

It is an online only competitive fps with mechs, exactly what is there that makes ps4 fans green with envy?

Realize that not every gamer is a competitive fps addict, some of us prefer a single player experience, without having to deal with idiot humans doing stupid things.

Some ps4 owners would be jealous of titanfall and other couldn't give a rats ass, if it every hits ps4. I am not lacking in fps games to get my competitive fix on.

Again if xbox didn't act like titanfall was the second coming of christ like you just did, it wouldn't get picked on so much.

And yet nintendo or xbox fans never attack sony exclusives, so knack being unfairly proclaimed as the worst game ever made, must have been my imagination.

[Petebloodyonion]

@ BitbyDeath

and again all theses games (except Resogun) are on Pc and were on sale in a Steam's Sale.

My whole argument isn't about PC vs PS4 or lowering the value of the PS4, it's about how every poster suddenly have a magical PC that can play Titan Fall (or any other games not available on a Sony Platform) way better then the MS Platform.
Now again with that aspect in mind (to all players that need to remind us that they have a better solution on pc)
Why did you bought a PS4 since all the game except 3 can be played on your current PC?

I'll give you the answer
Because they don't have that gaming Pc and when they bought the PS4 at 400$, it was a way better deal compare to buying a PC to play games.

[BitbyDeath]

@Petebloodyonion, you were asking why get a PS4.
Steam sales are no comparison to free PS+ games.

As for nobody having a PC, everyone needs one to comment on here so obviously everyone has something.

[rafaman]

I forgot that every PS4 owner owns a good PC.

All PS4 fanboys swim on money lol

They can have a PS4 and a PC, but not a XBOX ONE. Weird!

lol

[RAWSTA]

It's just trolls from the other side trying to get attention with there 1080p.

[pyramidshead]

Misterxmedia am cry:(

[otherZinc]

He also confirmed TitanFall on PS4 to be running:
0p "native"@ 0fps

[Mister_Dawg]

hahahaha.

Comedy gold there :-)

[FlunkinMonkey]

it will honestly run 1080p on my 2 year old PC..

Now THAT'S comedy gold..

[Kingthrash360]

whats funny...even respawn wish they didnt sign the exclusive contract right now.smh
the real comedy tho...is to see how close the 360 version is to the x1 version....because they been hiding that version, i'm thinking pretty close. ms keepin it under wraps so people will buy a x1 instead of just getting a 360 version. as far as install base goes pc and 360 stand to sell more copies of the game than x1.

[memots]

@flunkyMonjey

"it will honestly run 1080p on my 2 year old PC..

Now THAT'S comedy gold.."

Yup and it will also be running on a 8 year old console too the 360. So much for Next gen.

[GamingNerd013]

U know I never really understand y it isn't 1080P at 60 FPS I mean the engine it uses is 2004 and it doesn't look anything demanding whatsoever. O well like people say gameplay what matters most but still it's really stupid that graphics can't be in same level as gameplay on X1.

[bennissimo]

Cool story.

[styferion]

Hey a question for anyone, is there gonna be a crossplay between 360 and XB1?

[Mega24]

This is not news... I think?

[kevinsheeks]

true i suppose

[imt558]

In CBOAT we trust!!!!

[CYCLEGAMER]

Why don't they just say what it is, instead of telling us what its not?!?!?

[megazero12]

because they are probably working on patch till launch and he was asked whether THIS particular story was true and he said well "no"

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

You are right after I read the article again. Look at all the fanboys downvoting XD. I don't think it will be 1080p, but 900p is at least a step up from last gen

[Sci0n]

Get over the maybe there is a patch coming BS! there is no patch coming that will boost the res! ignorant SOB. People like you give other straw graspers false hope. The creators of the game themselves confirmed what the res will not be! If you want to play the game in full 1080p get it on PC, if you don't care about res just get it on the 360. We still don't even know how close the 360 version and X1 version of the game will look but we do know for sure that the 360 has the largest install base out of the 3 choices.

[stuna1]

It was pretty obvious from the start this wasn't going to happen! At 792p they were already experiencing frame rate problems. The most some could hope for is 900p the max! But I'm kind of leaning toward them bumping it up those 8 frames to 800p. Truthfully the 800p whould be in response to proving CBoat wrong.

Either way I think Microsoft will be responsible for TitanFall losing quite a bit of shock value by just giving the game away, IMO I think that that's a bad move.

[ic3fir3]

I joke people evaluate a game for a beta, which increase the resolution, the game gets worse frame rate lol, ever thought that the beta is very old? and the frame rate improves until the final version.
What may very well happen that the final version runs at a resolution of 900p, and with a better framerate than the beta.
Stop evaluate the game for a beta, the alpha bf4. had a lower resolution.
  and a less stable framerate

[Nekroo91]

yes the alpha bf4 had huge fps drop. But the beta is the near final version so it wont be optimized from 792p to 1000p the max would be 900p.

But wait ..you spoke bs about the order framerate which is in pre alpha. Oh the irony

X1 isnt capable of running Titanfall at 1080p Fact!!( because your opinions are facts) if you want to play it at higher resolutions than the x1 get a pc from 2008.

[devwan]

@ic3fir3

The "Beta" aspects of this game were nothing much to do with kinds of Beta tests you are comparing it to.

The titanfall Beta was primarily to stress test the servers and see how the game performed when played on a large scale. Respawn claimed they discovered a number of issues that they could then address. It did its job. It was also about hype - create a fuss over access codes and people want to get in more and more - simple marketing tactic these days.

The kinds of Beta tests you're thinking of take place many months before a game goes gold, not a matter of days and weeks.

If you're expecting a huge resolution increase and a rock solid frame rate, you're likely only setting yourself up for hurt, same as the guys who jumped in the air last week when the latest 1080P rumour started and an official-looking Twitter account highlighted it when in fact it was just some forum post and the twitter account was a fan-created one.

Sucks to be that desperate I suppose...

[jackanderson1985]

how is it a bad move exactly? it'll increase the install base of both the X1 and titanfall itself... people who were hanging around for a cheaper X1 will pick it up now seeing as they get a free game and making the console effectively only $30 more than the PS4 (£3 if you're in the UK and buy from gamestop)... Respawn (well EA till a certain amount) get paid for the game regardless and have a bigger install base for going into Titanfall 2

[stuna1]

But it will obliterate the sales potential for the game profit wise! At least for the Xbox1 version of the game, and as so many are quick to point out, software is where the money is made or, does that formula not apply in this case!?

[aerisbueller]

I agree. Even it did obliterate the sales potential profitwise, as stuna1 says, they need to increase the install base of the XB1 much more than they need TitanFall buyers, and I imagine EA got a ridiculously good deal out of it.

[Kayant]

On the flipside it's good idea in order for them to shift systems and gain more market share. Which IMO is the primary purpose of the Full exclusive deal. It's already viewed by casuals thanks to the media and MS's marketing as an XB1 *exclusive* first than an MS exclusive also available on X360 and PC.

[air1]

So is it a bad thing to get a free game now?

[choujij]

You can get 1080p on PC tho. :)

[Alexander1Nevermind]

Wow, at least two people can't accept the truth...(language alert)

http://m.quickmeme.com/img/...

[Fishy Fingers]

Same story with Battlefield 4, doesnt mean I'm not enjoying the PS4 version.

[Fishy Fingers]

These "insiders" have such a s*** track record, why anyone puts any faith into what they say is beyond me.

[jackanderson1985]

sure if we didn't have insiders who'd provide us with all these stories inbetween game launches...that being said anyone who straight up believes an insider is mental

[mark3214uk]

if you thought it was going to be 1080p your dillusional

every good game will be 900p and below on x1,whether you like it or not the x1 is not as powerfull as the ps4 and never will be

[CorndogBurglar]

Crap, sorry man, I meant to hit agree. Not disagree.

But you're right.

[jackanderson1985]

doesn't it depend on your definition of a "good game"... like say Fifa personally think it's a great game and it's 1080p... TR (some say it's great some don't) that's 1080p...wolfenstein is 1080p and that could be a great game

no-one except the deluded fans have said it's as powerful as the PS4 but if the 360 can do 1080p games (few and far between but there none the less) i'd be willing to bet my house and wealth that the X1 will be able to do 1080p

[MasterCornholio]

"o-one except the deluded fans have said it's as powerful as the PS4"

But didnt you make claims of the system having a secondary GPU that would allow it to achieve 1080P 60FPS with ease?

What made you change?

[jackanderson1985]

@cornholio i never once made those claims so not sure where you pulled that from or whether you're just confused... i do believe as time progresses they will achieve 1080p60FPS with ease no doubt it's how technology generally works the more experience you have at it the easier it gets to develop

also if you go through my comment history you'd see that resolution means very little to me... 32inch tv from more that 5 foot away and upgrade from 720p is negligible at best to me

[TheOmniGamer]

I hear the resolution of Titanfall for PS4 is 0x0 and runs at 9 FPS like Thief.

[uso]

I gona eat crow, when eurogamer posts is face-off of Thief.

Let´s see

[barb_wire]

Bet the 360 version has the same resolution but higher frame rates.

That's why it was delayed 2 weeks.

Can't have the 360, which is over 8yrs old upstaging your less than 4 month old new console.

[CrossingEden]

Here's a game that's graphically more impressive than titanfall yet is 1080p.
http://segmentnext.com/2014...
And according to previews it's pretty good. Your argument is now invalid.

[windblowsagain]

Titanfall isn't impressive at all tbh.

But that's more down to the engine. Does not look good maxed on PC from the beta imo.

But crossingeden.

Wolfenstein is graphically like a PS3/360 title with updated rez. assets look poor.

[FlunkinMonkey]

The graphics matter now, huh? Forget about all the other 720p inferior multiplats, huh?

We can see straight through you, son.

[GW212]

1080p native or upscaled? Bethesda studios didn't specify. Honest question.

[Zanzibar106]

Um. Really? So the news that Wolfenstein will be 1080P/60FPS on both XB1 and PS4? What does that mean?

[Major_Glitch]

It means that wolf will still look better on the ps4.

[BX81]

Look better? Who cares if it might end looking slightly better. I want the version that has solid game play. I just got my ps4 kz bundle. The game runs at 1080p but when I'm running when playing mp you can see how choppy it is. It takes away from the game play.

[towelie1288]

cant wait for this game
its really fun and a blast to play with friends

[jollygoodchap8]

Don't worry the magical 1080p/60fps rumor will emerge again in couple days lol

[g-nome]

The fact that the xbox one cannot render this game in 1080p is actually a disgrace. Will still be good i'm sure , but come on , pc is already at 4k . The xbox fans deserve better than that.

[headblackman]

the x1 fans really don't give a damn. we play games. not resolutions. resolutions are just extra bonuses, so let's treat them as such. the x1 fans and adopter have a console that will pump out amazing games for the gamers to play for many hears to come. games that get massive awards and is actually fun in reality (and not just perception) with or without i high resolution.

[AgitatedOcelot]

By definition, Xbox gamers have always been casual gamers who accept mediocrity. So no, specs probably don't matter much to an Xbox gamer. The FPS as played on a console is a mediocre experience to begin with because of controllers and auto aim. Xbox defined the casual fps bro gamer scene. And the U.S. Xbox console centric market has always been focused on nothing but small map cod like FPS games.

Problem is, if you don't care about updated specs, Xbox 360 is good enough. And that's why Titan Fall won't be anything close to the system seller people think it will be. Most Xbros will be content to play it on their 360, because they play games, not resolutions, and there will be far more players on the 360. Including most of their friends who still have a 360.

Don Matrick didn't realize how right he was when he made those comments about sticking with your 360. $500 is a hardcore fans price for a console, and that's why Xbone sales are dead in the water. The hardcore early adopters hit, and after that sales fell off a cliff.

[jamstorr86]

Well duh

[Ko_Uraki]

Did not care before. Don't care now :) .Titanfall remains a must buy on one

[CharlesSwann]

I'm surprised. I thought for sure MS would have them turn down some effects to get it to go 1080. Guess it could't be done without looking obviously less than the beta. Not a good sign that.

[jamstorr86]

60fps is a must for this game. no chance of 1080p on xbox one

[DeadManMMX]

And no one getting the game really cares.

[incredibleMULK]

Of course you do. >:-|

[DeadManMMX]

No I really don't... at all. Not even a lil bit. On my 44 inch it wouldn't make the slightest bit of difference. That and I have both systems and I want all the exclusives for both that are good regardless of resolutions and blah blah blah. Those who actually have the system love it, it seems the people most up in arms about all these resolution things are the people who don't or won't ever get the system. I've been watching these and forums on Other sites for years and the insecurity is strong in one particular type of fanboy. Seriously you guys have a hell of a complex. To the point where you see 20 to 1 ratio of negative comments on every Xbox article that comes out good or bad on every site. It is hilarious and you all know deep down inside who you are Bring on the disagrees.

[Hicken]

Oh, they don't care because it's not happening.

But if he had said, "Yes, Titanfall will be 1080p, 60fps when it launches," you'd all be screaming from the rooftops about it.

[DeadManMMX]

No, I think most of us would be like "Ok, cool" and move on with our lives. Not particularly giving a crap. I can't believe that resolution articles are dominating this site. I can't wait till we have actual news about new games coming out. I miss the old days when consoles launched with killer apps at the same time. N64 and Super Mario 64. Xbox should launch with Halo. PS4 should launch with.....trying to think of one game that defines the system. I'm going to say Uncharted unless they buy Crash Bandicoot. Man I'd take a Ps4 Twisted Metal in a heartbeat but not without Jaffe. 3, 4 and smallbrawl uggh. I'll only take God of War if he goes to sleep for a few thousand years and wakes up with new gods in the future.

[incredibleMULK]

>:-| sweet.

[Gore-Content]

Oh well, you guys will still have 6v6 action.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

I have a prediction. Titanfall will launch on 3/11 and it will have a resolution and frame rate. Time to move on already....game is fun, will be successful no matter the resolution.

[TristanPR77]

Many xbone fans were counting on this yesterday. I read many comments of people believing the rumor was truth and titanfall would be 1080p on xbone.

So much for that ”we don't care about resolution" stuff eh?

[MasterCornholio]

And using the power of the clouds and the new SDK as a means to achieve that. Yes i heard pretty stupid things like that before.

[hankmoody]

I don't so much care for it but if it were to come, I surely wouldn't say no to it.

[MadLad]

Dat PC doh.

[The_devils_chum]

Seriously ! if you can't get killer instinct 1080p 60 fps titanfall surly wont be.

[dale1]

get the pc version for this game,the x1 version has some serious frame rates when theres a lot on screen.the 360 might not be that far off the x1 i kid you not

[Golden_Mud]

o_o , man this post is a laughable post , APPROVED !!!

[jay2]

Going back to my 1080p game michine

[jay2]

Love the disagrees, sorry you lot overspent on XBone I played some AC 4 and Thief after posting this.

[urwifeminder]

Looking forward to it just got Garden warfare on xb1 the co op is a blast, will be putting some cash down on Titan next week.

[TheTowelBoy]

So? If you want the best fps experience you should play it on PC. The only thing giving me pause is Origin. Even then I have ME3 on it so I might just bite the bullet

[purp13m0nk3y]

I don't think anyone actually believed that Titanfall would be 1080p on Xbox1.

It would be awesome if they manage 900p still with good levels of AA but I'm not holding my breath.

Realistically I'd say not much higher than the Beta resolution. To do so would mean sacrificing to many other assets to make it worthwhile. I played the beta briefly on a PC and even maxed out at 1600p it was still pretty meh visually.

It was fun. But I hate COD style shooters, and it really did feel very similar. I just hope the final game offers more variety in terms of play style. I like my shooters a little more tactical and cerebral personally.

[hankmoody]

No worries. The game will still look good and most importantly, will be a blast to play.

[payikick]

Want Titanfall at 1080p/60fps with highres Textures???

Build a PC with a GTX 750ti and a copy of the game for what you would pay for an Xbone......

[user9597082]

FORGET HOW MUCH FUN THE BETA WAS.
THIS GAME IS DEAD TO ME NOW BECAUSE CLEARLY ITS TERRIBLE

Said 95% of N4G commenters

[InTheLab]

I said that because of bots, no single player, and no co-op. Resolution doesn't mean much when the has so little to offer for full price.

[user9597082]

While you're the only person on here with rational complaints, there's more than enough to offer. How is a concentrated multiplayer not worth as much as a concentrated singleplayer game with no multiplayer? It's actually worth way more when you go and look at stats for games like Halo or the older Call of Duty games and see that the multiplayer end provides an infinite source of replay value.

Most people are bickering about resolution as if it's the only thing that matters in a game.

[k3rn3ll]

Isn't mp coop only not on rails?

[InTheLab]

@Shiny

Take a look at Skyrim or any other RPG and compare it what Titanfall is offering. Or how about other 360 games like Halo which usually has an outstanding campaign. How about Gears, which comes with not only an sp, but several co-op modes that add to value. RPG's are not a fair comparison so how about TLoU? That game is an easy 10 hours of gameplay and triple that if you're a competionist. How about fighters? Even before online was a thing, they still offered stories and Soul Edge/Caliber even offered full campaigns.

Then check on Titanfall's peers like Dust 514 or Blacklight. How much do those games cost? Or how about MAG? I felt the same way about MAG but at least that game had massive battles with 100 or more live players.

Or compare it to Battlefield or CoD. Killzone. Even Crysis with it's half assed everything came as a complete game for $60.

And what happens if you travel and can't connect or your internet goes nuts like most Xfinity/Comcast/Time Warner customers? Now you can't even play the single player because there is none. You can't play the survival mode because there is none. You can't do s*** with Titanfall without Live so all new X1 owners automatically pay another $60 just to enjoy Titanfall.

And of course I'm not saying Live is a hurdle. It would be if all there is to Titanfall is 6v6, bots, 14 maps, a handful of Titans, and nothing else.

[Hicken]

Yeah... actually, even BEFORE the beta, people were changing their minds. Only being 6v6, having a limited(one?) number of game modes. So many bots! Those things were enough to turn people off the game before they played it.

[InTheLab]

I can't help but think of Titanfall as a missed opportunity. Imagine how epic a massive 60 man battle would be. Instead of giving away Titans after achieving some arbitrary number of kills or simply hanging out for 3 minutes, what if you had to take out Titans or complete objectives to earn Titans instead of bot homicide, rinse/repeat.

Make it harder to get Titans or limit the number of Titans on the field at any given time and that eliminates the need for bots as those spots would be filled by live players.

This game could have been insane but instead they went with bots, low player counts, few game modes,super kicks, cloaks(ugh), and auto aim pistols.

[talocaca]

If someone had told me two years ago "Microsoft's flagship title for the next Xbox will run 720p" I would have NEVER believed it.

I know resolution isn't everything but this is all kinda shocking...

[GW212]

You're exactly right. This is a complete under-deliver by MS. Xbox kiddies can stomp their feet all they want but this is indeed disappointing.

PS4 is having it's issues as well right now but they are all fixable. Fortunately, the hardware is up to par. The software/feature set will get there over time. Unfortunately for XB1, you can't magically upgrade the console hardware. SDKs and software improvements can only take you so far.

[Sci0n]

I agree and most of the in denial xbox fanboys agree too even though they can't allow themselves to admit it since they are in full damage control mode. 2 years ago I was pretty certain the next xbox console might have even been more powerful then the PS4 or neck and neck with it especially after seeing how the PS3 360 era went with exclusives. 2 years ago no Xbox fan who was looking forward to the X1 thought it would be this inferior compared to the competition. The it doesn't matter we don't care about res or maxed frames owners are liars, in denial, blinded or just the ultimate suckers.

[SynestheticRoar]

How about 1080p on the 360.

[o-Sunny-o]

This game has no hope to get Call Of Duty sells. It's released in 2 weeks and only released on 3 platforms. CoD always release near fall so it can be under every kids Christmas tree. I didn't even know this game was coming out in 2 weeks. That shows how much I cared. Enjoy it everyone who plays it. ^~^

[SonyROXitoohya]

Mmhmm we believe u. Don't worry u look cool acting as if u had no idea lol such an obvious lie. Hah it's just so childish how fanboys act, gives gamers a bad rap.

Ps u obviously care for it, ur here posting about how u supposedly don't care for it. Lol such an idiot.

[JOEgolferG]

Its a PR stunt this game will release with 1080p 60fps on the Xbox One after optimisation!

[SegataSanshiro]

Oh man reading that comment was actually kinda sad to be honest

[JOEgolferG]

It was a joke big lad im just a sick troll. ps im a PS4 fanboyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!

[quenomamen]

Thats after they turn on Teh Cloud ! Get your facts straight .

[WeaseL]

My old PC runs Titanfall fine but not BF4 or COD:G.
Its a really old engine so I don't no why they can't get it to 1080p

[SonyROXitoohya]

Yeah not really surprising, people believe rumors too much.

Funny thing is the ones actually complaining about it not being 1080p are ps4 fanboys lol, gotta love their insecurity, jealousy, and ability to deny everything even when proven lol.

[JOEgolferG]

You are probably the biggest Xbox One fanboy ive ever seen ever though lol

[blahblah123]

Output resolution on Titanfall isn't going to make any difference on any platform. The game looks pretty rough in spots at 2560x1600 on PC. Texture resolution and lighting are what need to be improved. But it's just a noisy arena shooter so I'm not sure any of this is important in the first place.

The game was originally architected to work on 360 and PS3 and the overwhelming sales will go the 360. PC plays ok, but maxed out, it just looks like ass.

[bobacdigital]

I still cant believe people were freaking out about the game going from 792p to 720p ... the difference is so marginal in terms of visual quality ... at least frame wise it will run better if they drop it to 720p.

[gigoran]

Accidental double post. Lag

[gigoran]

The funny part comes from the xbox boys praising their 1080p upscale all last gen, only to now say "resolution is no big deal".

[No1up]

I don't care.... What makes me angry is why they just won't spill it less than 14 days before launch? If it's 720 then so be it, but stop being little bit"+3s about it.

[Bolts-N-Rays1109]

Oh well. The game will still be a blast.

[bam3737]

Little disapointing but its not a dealbreaker i had alot of fun in the beta cant wait till mar 11!!

[hkgamer]

480p confirmed...

[Flames76]

It will be 900p/60fps which is great i played the beta on the XBox One and hands down its the best looking FPS ive seen for next gen on any platform

[PR_FROM_OHIO]

You can't be serious BEST LOOKING FPS on a next gen console?? LMFAO!!!!

[xDHAV0K24x]

go away

[MetaReapre]

I want to agree with you, but disagree. Best looking FPS on XB1 yes. Even possible it could be the most fun one to come out this year. However, Killzone Shadowfall still looks better, even though this game will be much more fun. lol

[crusf]

Xbox One And Ps4 PFFFT.... My Sega Genesis can run Titanfall 4K 60 FPS

[jmc8888]

Well that was a captain obvious moment.

Sorry, no way in hell can any dev for any game on any system go from 792p and dips to 34 FPS to 1080p/60 in a couple of weeks.

People who thought that was true or even possible are morons.

[Tedakin]

That beta build was from December you realize...... k.

[rataranian]

Console problems?

[DomceM]

900p? more like 1p.

[ma1asiah]

In all seriousness this game is all about the gameplay and not about pretty pixels....and in the gameplay department it ROCKS!!!!

If it looks as good as it did during the beta then I'm cool with that.

I will let the rest of you get back to your dick swinging competition and I will get back to playing games.

March 14th (TF's launch in New Zealand) can't come fast enough totally love this game or at least what I got to play of it during the beta.

One point I will add though for all the pixel counters is this, PC gamers, and journalist have all stated though that even on maximum settings it looks only slightly better than the X1 version (in respect of the beta). So in all honesty I don't see what the big deal is.

[creid2352]

There's a game that supports 1080p/60fps and is 3D. It's called life and you can play it by moving out of your parents house. I could care less what resolution the game is set at, it's an awesome game. The Beta had me and about 2 million other people sold on this game so whether it's 720p, 900p or 1080p, it's going to be a heavy hitter for the Microsoft users (XB, XB1, PC) and I'm going to buy it.

[hobbitooo]

i foresee there will be lots of login problems in the first 3 days of the launch.

[TomahawkX]

March is going to be a very interesting month indeed.

[xDHAV0K24x]

Better than 0000p

[corvusmd]

The game looked great at 792p and even compared to the max pc setting direct feed, there was very little difference, so no matter what..I'm sure it will be fine. I have no problem believing that it's a possibility it'll hit 900p native, but no matter what...as long as it stay that smooth and fun...who cares...everything is so fast and hectic in that game, you don't really stop to stare at the grass anyway (which does look great). I always thought that the 1080p rumors after the beta were a little fishy, so I wasn't holding my breath. However, if they had started the game after the new SDKs..and were using DX 11.2 tiled resources....1080p/60fps EASY....no brainer. Hopefully this works as well as everyone is saying it is, and developers take advantage of it. It could revolutionize gaming.

Just an interesting read/video about using DX 11.2, it's a link to a board post, but I like the way he breaks it down in, then he includes the source and actual videos. It's a great read for anyone that wonders how this is going to work, and why if it does, XB1 will be hitting 1080p/60fps like it's a joke and now developers will be able to use MUCH more detailed textures if they choose.

http://www.ign.com/boards/t...

[reko]

OK expert.

[XxExacutionerxX]

Respawn is a small studio, thats why there is no single player. Titanfall 2 will likely be a bigger game and will come to the PS4.

[waljaber]

come on Respawn with 6 vs 6 and still no 1080p.

[Zanzibar106]

My God, when are the Sony fanboys going to remember history? Remember when the multiplat games for the PS3 were clearly inferior to the X360 versions? Eventually the devs started understanding the PS3 better and the games got better looking and faster.

The same will be true for XB1. As the devs get better at squeezing every ounce of horsepower out of it, the games will run better. 1080p/60fps will be standard, if not this coming Christmas, the next.

Look, there's no question that the PS4's hardware specs gave the devs a boost at the beginning. You are welcome to claim that.

But when you say that the XB1 is 'incapable' of 1080p/60fps you really look unintelligent. It's COMPLETELY capable of it. Look at Forza at launch. And it will get better over time, just like the PS3 - and every OTHER console ever made.

If you think that the launch titles have 'capped out' the hardware specs of the XB1 THEN YOU ARE COMPLETELY DELUSIONAL. THAT HAS NEVER BEEN TRUE, NOT ONCE, NOT EVER, IN THE HISTORY OF THE CONSOLE MARKETS.

[MetaReapre]

Actually, you are mistaken here. Yes, there probably will be a time when 1080p/60fps will be commonplace for the xb1 but that will be because they had to sacrifice something else for the game.

The XB1 does have the inferior design when it comes to gaming. The esram is only good for the computing of the cpu, it doesn't do well to help the gpu which is what is most important for video games, but not saying it can't be used for the gpu, but it would have to be bigger to be of good use. This is a much bigger problem than the set up for the ps3.

With the ps3 it had the memory in the ram that it needed, but it was different than what developers were used to, meaning they had to figure out how to use the power they were given.

The difference in the situation is ps3 used foreign technology than what devs were used to while the xb1 is using the wrong kind of technology that it should have used, making it weaker in certain areas.

[Zanzibar106]

Fair enough, in rereading my comment, I wasn't clear - the PS4 does indeed have better hardware specs. I don't think anyone doubts that. MS made several decisions that will hamper its abilities, and PS4 games will look better than XB1 games down the line.

But people shouting that the XB1 is 'incapable of HD graphics' is just silly.

[lesrima88]

lolz

[MetaReapre]

Well this was expected, for me anyway. The resolution doesn't really mater at this point. I do expect this to be a really good game, but I'm still on the fence on whether this will be the kind of game I enjoy.

For me, I worry more about games on consoles starting to run 60 fps, I wanna see more of that lol. I do own a gaming pc, but i don't always wanna play there unless its a game i want modded or what not.

Another thing is I'm tired of people commenting about trolls, whether it be Sony or MS fanboys.

[up2snuff]

Graphics are over rated. I'd rather have a great game that looks OK than a good game that looks great. I.E. Morrowind over Skyrim.

[mmj]

They had to confirm this? the beta can't even run 792P without dips into the 40's, they'd have to target 30fps to get anywhere close to 1080P.

[SoliDRevolver777]

Damn that sucks.

[SoulSercher620]

Wow I am shocked by how many Xbox fanboys say they don't care about resolution yet they go on about how Ryse is the best looking game this generation. Sorry but I find it hard to believe that these people don't care about resolution especially at one that is NOT next gen.

[UncleGermrod]

In other news, Microsoft's Xbox One to include Kinect sensor and cancellation of the dreaded DRM policies announced this spring. ...

Old News Brah!

[GiantEnemyCrab]

I hear DR3 and Ryse may be launch titles?

[DaGamingKing]

I'm not fussed, everything upscales on X1 to 1080p, so if its 720p, 792p, 900p etc, I am still "playing in 1080p". So its a null factor for me. Personally I am more interested in frames per second as that is what makes a game fluid etc.

The beta rocked, had so much fun, and I personally couldn't care less about resolution.

I understand to some this may be an issue, its your personal choice but for me its a null factor.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Who ever said this would be native 1080p? And frankly what I played it was fine, not at any point did I stop and say "wow, this just isn't playable because it's not 1080p".

[killzone619]

i would rather play titanfall on console. sitting hunched over a mouse and keyboard just isnt my style.

[dekke]

i played beta on PC with xbox pad but One Does Not Simply Run at 1080p :P

[killzone619]

using a controller against M&K users? bad move

[S2Killinit]

0uch, PC fans rejoice

[dekke]

nah i own also ps4 :D

[FanboyKilla]

Ummmm let me handle this. March 11 xone owners will be playing titanfall. if you say ill play it on my pc, lol thanks for the support. You will still be playing titanfall. So much for you not careing about the game. Ms wins either way. It went from its comeing to ps4 to it sucks anyway. Lol Oh its just cod with mechs. 1st off they made call of duty, dont forget that. Look at cod now, its pretty much the same game zamp left them with lmfao. 2nd how many devs would love to have their game compared to cod. Havent you played cod? But you dont want to play a game better than cod? Lol i know you hurt it isnt on ps4, truth be told id be running around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to get a ps4 if they had titanfall. Hows that 1080p 60fps s*** working out for you now? Its like you got a lambo but no gas. Im only talking to the hater, not ps4 owners. Sony showed you knack and killzone. Ms showed you titanfall. You made your choice stfu and live with it.

[GoPanthers999]

I honestly believe that MS will have to release an updated X1 to get to 1080p. It will suck to have to buy an updated console, especially with these long *$$ed game installs. The tech in the box just was not good enough, thus I have a slightly inferior console. Still going to play the he11 out of Titanfall and Halo.

[Tedakin]

Yeah they're not going to do that and tell millions who already bought it SORRY your console is obsolete, immediately buy another one.

[Tedakin]

It's funny that we were just told something we all knew, and have known, for months, and fanboys are acting like it's a real gut punch. The beta, even in 792, looked great.

[Incipio]

Sad violin

[Qwagy UK]

Well that is a shame, I was hoping that we was seeing a turning point with the xbox one and 1080p, I'm sure it won't be long now, although 900p is pretty good though, has 900p been confirmed anyone?

[Geekman]

You guys care too much about resolution. This is coming from someone who does not like the Xbox One.

[g-nome]

Well going back to some bareley 30 fps 720 p games on the ps3 after playing ps4 for a while I have to say , higher resolutions and frame rates make it a lot better experience for me. Im sure most of us expected at least 1080p for all games this generation.

[Geekman]

Alright your opinion, but I was talking about resolution, not FPS. I DO care about fps, because I can't stand slow frame rates. But as long as the game look DECENT, which Titanfall does, I could care less about if it's 720p, 900p, 1080p, or 2,000,000p. Granted, if it looks like garbage I wont play it, but 720 and 900p both look good. Most of the time.

[arugula]

So the PS4 is selling well but with a low software base. Would you rather a console that can do full 1080 with little games to play or a console that has a lot of fun games to play?

[NeloAnjelo]

The sad thing is this game can easily run at 1080p on the PS4. May even look better, along with streaming and sharing features.

MS money and EA greed ensures that gamers cannot choose the better version, which in turns stagnates growth and benefits no one. This game will sell XBones in the short term only.

Rather than investing that money in new IPs, and creating in-house games, MS rather buys a game... like Gears and TitanFall. No essence, skill, soul or growth at all fron MS. Here's money, give me this.

[Dirtnapstor]

Here's the solution to remedy the lack of 1080p...
You need to plug your Xbone into a HD TV that is less than a 36 incher. A set that small wouldn't truly display the differences between 720 & 1080p.
There you go! Enjoy!

[Haki1112]

http://a.disquscdn.com/uplo...

[lemoncake]

@everyone insulting this game and players for it being a sub 1080p game...

Hindsight is a bitch, enjoy killzone with its lower res than this.

[lemoncake]

Bad xbox news no mods closing comments for trolling and spam, bad ps4 news and suddenly the mods start closing everything. This article just goes to show. And this comment will probably be the only thing they do close here
