Battlefield 4: First-ever PS4 gameplay footage surfaces, hands-on suggest “nothing to criticize”

Battlefield 4: First-ever PS4 gameplay footage surfaces, hands-on suggest “nothing to criticize”

[ABeastNamedTariq]

Hmm... While it's no PC version, from that awkwardly angled video, it looks pretty good. VERY smooth.

[snipermk0]

Good game, bad player.

[Maddens Raiders]

Good game + great console = One happy gamer and one frightened wallet right here.

[Enemy]

Man it's weird that they don't even talk about the Xbox One version.

[Godoftheweek]

@Enemy

I don't think it is weird, rather I think it is very telling as to what state the xbone version is. It is either not as far along, or it does not look as good, or both. That for me is the only logical explanation.

[thechosenone]

better version here.. yt is garbage.
http://www.ign.com/videos/2...

[AgentSmithPS4]

Why are most of the players in gameplay vids so bad or just plain weird?

[dantesparda]

Ugh! why is there still pop up, cant they get rid of the pop-up/pop-in? (whatever you wanna call it)

[ShinMaster]

Looks better than I was led to believe...

[MWong]

Looks beautiful and runs smoothly, too bad the player was awful. I mean the guy looked like most of the time he was on a stroll.

However, I do wonder if this version is optimized at 1080p version or is it running in the native graphics probably 900p. I laughed at 3:06 into the vid when the person walks in front of the camera. It reminded me of a bootleg movie.

[starchild]

Honestly, as a PC gamer I have to say it looks great on the PS4. No screen tearing and it seems to have minimal aliasing and a fairly steady framerate.

I'm very picky and from what I can see I wouldn't mind playing this version at all. I'll still be getting the PC version, but it's good to see the PS4 will look great too.

[NewMonday]

BF4 has more going on but straight up KillzoneSF is the better looking game.

[aCasualGamer]

From looking at the pause menu and the description for L2 and R2 buttons, it doesn't seem to be the PS4 version. The buttons are convex, and we know that those buttons on PS4 are concave. Might just be me overanalyzing this footage.

[blakstarz]

@Enemy

If you think about Battlefield tends to be catered a bit more to Playstation whereas COD tends to be favored more on the Xbox brand.
So it make sense to see the PS4 version shown more, but I'm sure the XB1 version is just as good, just like COD gameplay demo tend to show the Xbox more in the spotlight than the PS3.

[lex-1020]

@Enemy

Not really. The Xbox doesn't sell well in Japan. Actually it's sold so poorly that Microsoft abandoned the market all together. Not really surprising.

[Christopher]

***Why are most of the players in gameplay vids so bad or just plain weird?***

Because most of us aren't good/great at every game. I suck at shooters. But, I enjoy playing them still.

[JoSneak]

smooth that's the key

[WillM17]

In 720p resolution and high scaling, recording from a tv

[3-4-5]

can't wait for this.

Probably the first next gen game I'll buy.

[ballsohard2013]

wouldnt really call it next gen... only because any game that is on both ps3 and 360 can't fully live up to its potential...

but this game looks decent enough to get me by

[starchild]

It doesn't matter if it is cross-gen.

Battlefield 3 was on PS3 and Xbox 360 as well, and it still looked amazing on the PC.

Cross gen games like Battlefield 4 and Assassin's Creed 4 were among the most graphically impressive games I saw at PAX Prime.

[Volkama]

I'd say cross-gen matters, but Battlefield is a good example of doing it right. The features and scale take advantage of the hardware, they aren't just layering on some extra detail over the same experience (which is more common).

[trancefreak]

God off screen has been looking good but direct capture would be so much sweeter.

Not much longer folks and I will have this beauty connected in my face with gorgeous games.

[_FantasmA_]

What is God off screen?

[andibandit]

Yes God looks pretty good off screen, but i agree, a direct capture of God would be better.

Down with the Atheists!!

/s

[a_squirrel]

And now we see the importance of grammar.

"God, off screen has been looking good but direct capture would be so much sweeter."

[trancefreak]

LOL! A punctuation contest for my "enthusiasm"; Brilliant!

This Bud Light goes out to you MR. Punctuation man!

[GuyThatPlaysGames]

I thought i was watching BF3 gameplay.

[seanpitt23]

Iam not impressed at all.

[lex-1020]

Who's Iam? And why is he not impressed?

[dcj0524]

Is Iam a middle eastern name?

[yeahokchief]

Not bad, but i'd rather be playing GTA V.

[hades07]

@ Enemy and Godoftheweek

The reason you dont see Xbone is the same reason why you rarely see playstation advertised along CoD, exclusive deals each company has. CoD gets their DLC published first on xbox and has advertising deals, playstation does the same with Battlefield.

[Tsar4ever01]

I wonder where and how they are beta testing the next–gen verisons multiplayer on servers since they're no next–gen consoles spread out around to test the servers stability on?

[Majin-vegeta]

If PS4 can do 1080 @60FPS and the xbone can't does that mean DICE isn't gonna make the PS4 version at that frame rate??and has to have both versions equal??

@WB Don't get mad at me for asking a simple question.Not my fault you're gonna buy cheaper hardware.

[theWB27]

Don't you ever get tired of it? Seriously...

To the 3 of you...it isn't a valid question.
http://www.nowgamer.com/new...

"Battlefield 4 will support 64-players and 60 fps for the first time on Xbox One," Bach explained. "This is a big deal for us because it’s something we’ve always wanted to deliver but we couldn’t do it without taking away from the core 'Battlefield' experience."

DICE has been stating from the beginning that X1 and PS4 would be the same experience.

http://gamerant.com/battlef...

http://www.trueachievements...

I don't know what your version of dumbing do down is...but it's usually the way BF ran on PC's compared to PS360 versions.

Again...I haven't heard anyone suggest the X1 version would be gimped. Nor confirmed it would be 1080p on PS4 only.

My question stands...does it ever get tiring..

[cell989]

he was asking a legitimate question

[Godoftheweek]

It is a valid question, which as of yet an answer for has not been given. Don't you ever get tired of devs dumbing down the PS version so that it is on par with the xbox version?

I know I do.

@blackmonone

Flame wars are inevitable when dealing with console parity or in this case the lack thereof. To criticize someone for asking a legitimate question in the hopes of avoiding another flame war is pointless and silly imo.

[blackmanone]

I think he was referring to yet another person trying to start a flame war.

[Kingthrash360]

very legit question...tho it might rub fanboys the wrong way,(not to say your a fanboy...your question is understandable many are tired of the flame war) i see a legit question. im even curious of that.

[ATi_Elite]

None of your links say anything about "1080p"

They ALL say 64 player 60fps but NO MENTION of 1080p!

Majin-vegeta was asking a LEGIT question.

XB1 version is NOT in 1080p

[UncleGermrod]

I understand your frustration. The bottom line is that while the ps4 will likely be somewhat more powerful I don't think it will be apparent so soon. Take all the math out of this and just look at it....there's really nothing to suggest that the xbox one could not run a game like BF4...that being said it could be using more % processing power than it is on the ps4, but lets be real about this...maybe in a year or so there will be a couple of titles that could show case that the ps4 is a bit more powerful, but really by how much? who knows. Ill have them both so I could care less but it does get a little old. Everytime a next gen game is mentioned, everyone claims that the xbox one will not run it as smooth. I guess only time will tell

[GiggMan]

I agree with Majin. There has been 3rd party gameplay footage for AC4, Watchdogs, and Battlefield 4 running on PS4... No such footage exist of 3rd party (non exclusive) software on the X1. Not even TitanFall... I'd bet if TitanFall was on both platforms they would probably have shown that too on the PS4 lol.

I hope if there is problems getting X1 versions of games up to speed it doesn't affect the PS4.

[thechosenone]

He's asking about resolution and you post articles that don't even touch on that issue. WTF

I've heard countless Dice devs state that the Xbone version is config to run at 720p/60fps over the past few months.

And this tweet here from a Dice dev corrects false info that BF4 on PS4 resolution will be the same as Xbone.

"To clarify: BF4 running at a higher resolution than 720p in the PS4 dev environment. Final resolution when the game is optimised at launch!"

https://twitter.com/repi/st...

[theWB27]

No crap the links don't mention resolution...that's the whole point of me posting them. Where is this confirmation of PS4 running at 1080p 60fps or the X1 possibly gimping development.

I posted links to res down there. Here they are..

http://n4g.com/news/1339241...

http://www.ign.com/articles...
"Another contributing factor was resolution. While EA and DICE have not confirmed what resolution the game will run at on next-gen consoles, for the purposes of this demo, it was running at a resolution higher than 720p, but not 1080p. Though the difference between the two formats may not be recognizable to more casual players, after spending the week checking out games running natively at 1080p, it was readily apparent to me."

http://www.videogamer.com/p...

"The PC version of Battlefield 4 will look better than the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions, executive producer Patrick Bach has suggested, telling VideoGamer.com that DICE is "doing as much as [it] can" with the next-gen versions, "but we need to compromise in some places."

No one is backing up Majin's pointless and nonfactual question. I don't care that they haven't shown the X1 version...the PS4 version has BARELY been shown itself.

Quotes show both version won't be on par with PC and NO QUOTES IMPLY ANY PERFORMANCE DROP ON THE X1.

All I'm asking is for someone to show the X1, any evidence, dragging down development. Not opinions...actual evidence. No one is backing up Majin's question...where is it confirmed BF on PS4 is running 1080p 60fps?

Majin
"If PS4 can do 1080 @60FPS and the xbone can't does that mean DICE isn't gonna make the PS4 version at that frame rate??and has to have both versions equal?? "

He/she asked about frame rate also...

I've confirmed X1 is 60fps and the PS4 isn't 1080p....can anyone do otherwise.

PLEASE!!!!!!!

[GiggMan]

"All I'm asking is for someone to show the X1, any evidence, dragging down development. Not opinions...actual evidence."

I'd love to be able to provide that evidence but unfortunately no one will show footage of a game running on X1 for us to make a comparison. You don't think that's strange at all? Anyone can "say" both versions will look the same but proving it is another thing.

"DICE has been stating from the beginning that X1 and PS4 would be the same experience."

Yeah well so has Ubisoft and everyone else. What else are they suppose to do? Tell the truth? All they can do is keep saying that and keep hoping people believe it while showing off the better versions.

[dantesparda]

Hey WB, you're really not getting Majin's question. We all know that the PS4 hasnt been confirmed to run at 1080, however, what he's asking is "IF" they can get the PS4 version running at 1080/60, will they gimp it becuase of the X1 version. That's what he means. And dont run any of this sh*t to me about there being no proof of the X1 ver dumbing down the PS4 ver. We all know how its easier to get games to run at higher resolutions and higher framerates on the PS4.

What i believe is that game will be gimped on the PS4 because of X1 (as most games will be, in order to keep console parity. But, any dev that does this will not get my money. I dont sweat any company or any game. So i'll buy only what i think is worth it.

So now you want to imply what Majin "meant" when the question is right there? There was no "IF" in there.

Majin asked since the PS4 can do 1080p@60fps and the X1 can't does it mean they'll hold the PS4 back and not make it 60fps.

There is nothing anyone can say to legitimize his/her question.

The fps has LONG since been confirmed at 60 for both X1 and PS4 and resolution hasn't for either.

I don't need to give shit about anything. I don't need an excuse. All of you laggies can try and defend that blatant, misinformed, fanboy question but all any of you are doing is looking as >insult here< as Majin.

Every single one of you who tried to defend this question can't answer it because it isn't legit.

60fps has been confirmed LONG AGO for both systems. Resolution hasn't for either. I don't care how any of you try and spin Majin's question...it still comes up looking foolish since the info is all there and it's blatant Fanboy drivel.

There has been almost NO footage of BF on PS4. DICE isn't running around showing the PS4 version. So it doesn't mean much at all that they aren't showing the X1. This is the FIRST time it's been seen running on PS4 in this state. 1 time for PS4...0 for X1. Doesn't say much either way.

[Sitdown]

*checks majin-vegeta's post history* Yeah, I am pretty sure he was asking a legitimate question. Haha. I too would like to see a link from a legitimate source saying the xbox one can't do 1080p and 60FPS.

[BitbyDeath]

@WB27, the question wasn't posed because the game 'might' be inferior. The question was posed because the hardware 'is' inferior.

And by the looks of your answer you think they will be the same so the simple answer from you is 'yes'.

[ShwankyShpanky]

WB: "So now you want to imply what Majin "meant" when the question is right there? There was no "IF" in there."

Oh my...

"If PS4 can do 1080 @60FPS..."
"If PS4 can do..."
"If PS4..."
"IF"

@ShwankyShpanky

Oh dear GOD that was a homerun!

So WB......could we get an answer to this from you?

[dantesparda]

Wow, just wow! WB may well be one of the dumbest fanboys yet. I wasnt trying to "defend" his question, you re-re, I was trying to explain it to you. But its obvious your comprehension skills are no good. You got to much fanboyism in your head! I know what his question was implying I was just trying to help you understand. But whatever, go be all defensive and sh*t cuz you know you've been made a fool of. Listen, WE ALL KNOW BF4 IS 64 PLAYERS/60FPS. What we dont know is what the res will be. He's basically asking/saying, "IF" the PS4 version can hit 1080, will they gimp it because of the X1. Thats what he's saying/asking, he just messed up and said "framerate" instead of "res". Im sure he knows its 60fps but not a confirmed 1080p on either system. And if you are gonna sit here and act like its not more possible for the PS4 to hit 1080 than the X1, well then i dont know what to tell you other than you are a delusional fanboy. Kapeesh!? Now bye, bye. I've wasted emough time on your dumb a$$

[andibandit]

@Ati_Elite

"Majin-vegeta was asking a LEGIT question. "

that would be a world first

[ma1asiah]

Johan Andersson, who is the technical director at DICE, among other things responsible for the next generation Frostbite engine 3.0 has admitted that the resolution Battlefield 4 on PS4 will be a little higher than 720p and specifically it be 720p upscale to 1080p.

PS4 can run a lot of games at native 1080p for sure but Battlefield 4 is not one of them.

[user7402931]

yeah ps4 can run battlefield 4 1080p

[BitbyDeath]

Xbox doesn't have the leverage of starting a year earlier and therefore having 10 million extra people onboard... I don't think MS can call the shots on that anymore.

[Bathyj]

Thats all true but I fear it will take publishers a while to realize that and continue to walk around on eggshells so as not to offend MS.

I say make the best game you can on Xbone and make the best game you can on PS4 and if they are not the same then so be it. That will be the information gamers need to help decide which console they should go with.

[starchild]

Microsoft never called the shots on that. This is the most absurd thing I have heard. I don't know why some of you keep saying that. There isn't a single shred of evidence to support such a claim.

PS3 versions of multiplats sometimes were a little inferior because it was more difficult for developers to get good performance out of. Along with the fact it had a little bit weaker GPU and a bit less available RAM due to the higher OS overhead on the PS3 relative to the Xbox 360.

Even so, there are many examples of multiplats that were better on the PS3. That wouldn't be the case if there really was a policy in place that said that PS3 versions couldn't look better than 360 versions.

Given the hardware in the PS3 and 360 the differences that we saw are exactly what I would have expected. It's absurd that some people still repeat this conspiracy theory as if it holds any water.

[insomnium2]

@starchild

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

" Downloadable games must ship on Xbox Live Arcade at least simultaneously with competing platforms or Microsoft may refuse to publish them, Eurogamer can reveal.

Microsoft also demands publishers release games with at least the same content "on-disc" across platforms.

If these conditions are not met, Microsoft reserves the right to not allow the content to be released on Xbox 360."

[dantesparda]

@starchild

"Microsoft never called the shots on that. This is the most absurd thing I have heard. I don't know why some of you keep saying that. There isn't a single shred of evidence to support such a claim."

Oh except for the fact that there is such a policy in reality from MS. Otherwise, i actually agree with all this other stuff:

"PS3 versions of multiplats sometimes were a little inferior because it was more difficult for developers to get good performance out of. Along with the fact it had a little bit weaker GPU and a bit less available RAM due to the higher OS overhead on the PS3 relative to the Xbox 360.

Even so, there are many examples of multiplats that were better on the PS3."

[starchild]

@insomnium2

I knew someone would pull out that article.

First of all, that is clearly talking about parity in terms of features and content, not graphical parity. I don't know how some people twisted that into MS somehow demanding graphical parity.

Furthermore, it seems that even that policy really wasn't enforced much because there are quite a few games that have exclusive content on disc on the PS3. Assassin's Creed 4 is only one upcoming example.

Finally, we saw plenty of graphical and performance differences between the PS3 and 360--sometimes favoring the 360 and sometimes favoring the PS3--which again knocks a giant hole in the theory that MS secretly demands graphical parity.

So, again, you guys state it as a fact, but not only is there no evidence to support your claims, all the evidence actually points in the opposite direction.

I'm not trying to defend MS, I'm trying to defend the truth. I don't believe for one second that MS has, or ever has had, a policy which demands that multiplats on their consoles must have complete graphical parity with the versions on other consoles.

This is why I also believe that we WILL see graphical and performance advantages on the PS4.

[insomnium2]

@starchild

"Microsoft reserves the right to not allow the content to be released on Xbox 360"

It doesn't say they will not allow it. It says the reserve the right to do it. if the publisher or the published game is not big enough it would be easier to enforce.

Now as far as evidence supporting the quote I put out I would say FF13 is a halfway good example. the game was said to be finished on PS3 but they postponed the release cause of X360. Now the word 'content' is kinda grey area. Do they mean quality or quantity? It doesn't say. Clearly the quality of the content was worse on x360 but afaik it is the same game quantity wize.

That example actually fights against Majin's question and would lead me to say that no they will not gimp the PS4 version but I really cannot say anything for sure about MS. To think they even have something like that in the first place speaks volumes on what kind of business practices they have or they are willing to do. They fight dirty. It's like throwing sand into your opponents eyes in a fistfight. Cheap ass tactics. The way XBone was unveiled (DRM and such) is the epitomy of that.

[XboxFun]

Where (or who) does it say that the Xbox One can't do 1080p @60fps for B4?

that is the better question.

[Shuyin]

Yeah, on low settings.
Njoi.

[BigShotSmoov007]

How Dice is handling this is nothing new. If I remember correctly when Battlefield 3 came out, all they showed in the beginning was the PC. The first console version they showed was the PS3 and thats all they really talked about and around a month from launch they showed the 360 version and in the end both console versions looked and played the same with the PC or course being the superior version. I look for both consoles versions to be the same here as well, especially with Microsoft having that exclusive deal where they get the map packs first now so everything should just relax, we will all get the same game and same experience cause this is how Dice & EA does releases with Battlefield.

[dantesparda]

@xboxfun

"Where (or who) does it say that the Xbox One can't do 1080p @60fps for B4?

that is the better question."

Ummm, Dice does! Look it up. So really its not a good question at all, its actually a rather dumb one. Man, are all MS fanboys this misinformed? No wonder they think the X1 is good system, sad really! The stupidities of fanboyism

[theWB27]

I'd be proven invalid if someone can provide where BF on PS4 has been seen or confirmed 1080p locked and not on X1. I can't find it.

Cell989

Can any of show you a quote from DICE or any hands on that specifically says PS4 is running 1080p 60fps locked and it's not the case for the X1.

If you can't provide a link stating that as FACT...then my question is valid. Nothing else should be said about specs this and that...links and quotes.

The point is that no one has seen BF4 running on (Xbox One) WHY IS THAT ??????????????????

[theWB27]

@BoriboyShogun
Links stating the X1 version is inferior or GTFO...I won't answer hypothetical ?'s.

I've provided links and facts showing the PS4 version isn't running at that fidelity and them also stating X1 is running 60fps with the same unconfirmed resolution.

Can you provide that info?

[Kayant]

@theWB27
When did he say it's inferior?? All he said is that no one has seen it running on an XB1 devkit yet because it's all been on speced PCs.

[XboxFun]

Sorry WB27 but looks like no one can actually answer your question.

They keep saying that Vegeta's question is legit but how can it be legit when there is no proof to even his question?

Why would the PS4 version be gimped when they haven't even shown anything for the X1? Who says the X1 can't do 1080p @60 fps? Perhaps if that question was answered then we can ask the same about BF4.

You even provided links and proof for your own questions that seems to be getting overlooked by everyone.

[theWB27]

@XboxFun
I know..and it's funny. Everyone is tackling everything other than providing the info needed.

I'm posting less and less here because of this nonsense of people talking non facts and then other people actually backing them up.

Kind of stupid at the end of it all because we all know the same facts...but because it's the PS4 it somehow gets this mythical boost in performance that no one can confirm.

Back to GTA5

[BoriboyShoGUN]

Who said the XBOX version is inferior??? All im saying is that BF4 being such a huge launch title and being known too push systems to their MAX!!! Why would u not show it running on your system by now????????? Thats why people are suspicous about it, at least the PS4 is showing something even if it isnt the finished product.

[black0o]

as soon as we see a 3rd-party title running on an Xbone we can re-open this

for now chill and hope that x1 version to be ready before the 22nd

[PFFT]

Are you retarded?? The Xbox One version has already been confirmed to be 1080P/60fps by Dice.

[Majin-vegeta]

I wont stoop down to your childish level by name calling.

Oh really they did link or GTFO?

[PFFT]

http://news.xbox.com/2013/0...

Perhaps not BUT your past fanboy remarks makes you stoop much lower.
ANYWAYS, Nothing on the resolution But in this Q&A session with Xbox Wire DICE confirms a few times that the game will be running at 60fps Off and online.

[thehitman]

It says 60 fps but nothing about 1080p...

[ShwankyShpanky]

Careful, guy. Wouldn't want WB jumping down your throat for spreading unverified disinfo.

Odd, he still had bubbles when you posted that... can't imagine why he didn't bother to correct you.

[ziggurcat]

@ PFFT

your link only references 60fps, there's nothing about it being 1080p.

however, since we all now know that xbone *upscales* all games to 1080p (which confirms that no games are running native 1080p on xbone), i suppose it will technically be 1080p.

[ziggurcat]

@ the disagree:

http://n4g.com/news/1355991...

Aaron Greenberg said himself that xbone upscales all games to 1080p, which means there are no native 1080p games on xbone (even though they still claim there are).

[DaGR8JIBRALTAR]

Doesnt say anything about 1080p in that article.

[GABRIEL1030]

PS4 is capable to run Battlefield at 1080p and 60 FPS, but maybe DICE will cut off the version for not embarrass the Xbox One, because EA is a close partner of Microsoft. Where is the Xbone gameplay? :(

[clae1]

It is possible that ps4 is capable to run bf4 at 1080p and 60 fps but not fact. Hell, drive club is finding it hard to do 60fps. To think bf4 is more technical and demanding than an arcade racer.

[hakeem0996]

So no one noticed that it wasn't a 64 players match .it's the same demo people were bitching about that was playing on XBONE at PAX .

[SpideySpeakz]

Yes, they may have to dumb it down to avoid any retaliation from Microsoft. The gaming industry still wins, but the gamers lose.

[clae1]

Really? Talk about dumb!

[starchild]

Guys, if the PS4 can do 1080p in this game, believe me they will do it. They are not going to make the PS4 version render at a lower resolution just to match the Xbox One version.

All this past generation we saw countless examples where one console version was better in some way or another over the other version. This shows that devs will take advantage of individual strengths of each console.

Sometimes the PS3 version would be better as in Castlevania Lords of Shadow or Final Fantasy 13, and sometimes the Xbox 360 versions were better like Red Dead Redemption.

Devs basically try to get the best performance they can out of each platform given the time and budgets they have to work with. The PS3 was harder to get optimal performance out of and that is the main reason multiplats sometimes were a little inferior on the PS3.

The PS4 is not difficult to develop for this time and it is more powerful than the XB1. I have not the slightest doubt that we will see that advantage play out in various ways on multiplatform games.

[user7402931]

+1 starchild

[BallsEye]

are you totally stupid? Ps4 can;t handle 1080p 60fps high settings in battlefield and that's it. You're left with 720p medium 60 fps and it got nothing to do with XO version. It's still good. I enjoy last gen 30 fps bf3.

[Majin-vegeta]

Lol im sorry but everyone here said KZ:SF couldn't do 1080 @60FPS low and behold what do we have here thats exactly what it's doing.Well since "YOU" seem to know that it cant do 1080@60 then tell me almighty dev how can you possibly know more than the people working on it??

BTW thanks for showing how mature you are.

[tuglu_pati]

"after having played Battlefield 4 on PlayStation 4, “there’s just nothing to criticize.” The game “ran at a smooth 60 fps looking amazing the entire time [with] no sign of low quality textures or any issues at all.”"\

that is definitely great news.

[GiggMan]

I'm glad to hear that too even though I didn't have much doubt.

[shivvy24]

I actually did have my doubts but im so happy to be proven wrong

[Sitdown]

Do you have an obsession with being button hurt? Or are you just one of the few people who actually think it's cleaver?

[Summons75]

Well no S***. Multigen ports are never going to push the console to the limits. It look amazing on Ps3 already it will look better on ps4 by logic but 'eye-melting' better from what everyone thinks. COD still looks like it was from 2005 on new consoles and old. The only difference I've noticed on Watch Dogs on ps3 and ps4 is that ps4 the character has his hands in his pockets.....nothing mind blowing. Wait till BF5 to really see the difference.

[blackmanone]

THAT'S the only difference you noticed from current gen to next gen Watch Dogs? Can I have whatever drugs you're on? :).

[KwietStorm_BLM]

I just don't understand why they haven't shown the game running on PS4 yet. There's been so many opportunities.

[Biggest]

What is the purpose of this video?

[KwietStorm_BLM]

This is quite clearly an off screen video recorded with a camera, and not a proper showing directly from DICE or Sony. Do you know the difference?

[cell989]

this video should be a solution to your yapping

[KwietStorm_BLM]

There was no yapping involved, and this isn't a solution to anything. Move along.

[Soldierone]

I think you mean in terms of demos or conferences, and the simple answer is that the PC version looks "better."

It's similar to commercials. Why instead of gameplay do they show this vibrant cutscenes? Because the cutscenes look better than the actual gameplay. So you get in aww and want the game.

[BallsEye]

My guess is, they wan't people to believe it will be equal to pc version while it's a lot behind with 720p medium settings. If such video would be released internet would boil saying dice can't program on ps4 cause Knack looks better.

[cell989]

MY concerns have been resolved, the gameplay looked smooth and action packed, cant wait for this one on PS4

[venom06]

OF COURSE THERE IS NOTHING TO CRITICIZE... that clown Scott Lowe @ IGN that said something bad about BF4 on the PS4 also said that CoD Ghost graphics were subpar and that it was ok..

PLEASE take IGN with a grain of salt when it comes to anything concerning BF4...

http://www.ign.com/articles...

[clrlite]

I take most of what they say witha grain of salt in general.

[Sevir]

8v8 on a 64 player map... -_- I hope they restrict map sizes to the appropriate player count... This map is way too open for the amount of players on the map...

It does look good though, and coming from PS3 this will do quite well for me. Though I won't be on BF4 at launch. I have Killzone to thank for that. BF4 for looks remarkable. Kudos to DICE.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

No need to restrict the map. If anyone is actually silly enough to setup 8v8 or if you actually enter that match, it's on you. People have been questioning for months why the behind closed doors console gameplay had limited player counts.

[Kujii]

Gameplay shown is 16 vs 16

http://hypeup.net/index.php...

Ill reserve judgement for direct feed of 64 players.

[aceitman]

well its only shown 16 vs 16 cause they are limited to space at the Tokyo gameshow , that means they have 32 ps4's running and 32 tvs, that is a lot of space to take up. on the floor . the e3 and gamescom they had a separate huge room to play the 64 players game.

[Kujii]

@aceitman

Ah that makes sense.

[memots]

Actually lower count on most map makes the game more fun, Way more strategy and kill count even more.

[90Supra]

Direct-feed or GTFO...

[Kaneda]

Is the map too big? Even for 64 players... Begining was he just kind of looking around..

[Kleptic]

pretty sure that video was not 64 players...have you seen the alpha videos of this map with 64 players?...if anything, it could be too small for that many...although, it has a ton of vertical vantages...

32 on 32 has people EVERYWHERE on this map...

[BallsEye]

it was 16v16

[gamertk421]

I don't see much difference between that and the current Gen, tbh, but that could be video quality.

[kingduqc]

Everytime there is console gameplay of a fps I cringe when the people try to aim. It take them so much time to aim down at the enemy and every movement look clunky.

I'm the only one noticing this?

[theEx1Le]

Generally its because a bad player is using the controller. High sensitivity and good muscle memory means that type of aiming is usually non-existent in even average players.

[Bathyj]

Have you ever seen off screen footage of a shooter and thought, man, this guy is nailing it?

No. It just doesnt happen. Maybe all games journalist suck at playing games.

[Skynetone]

well he is standing up and looking down at a screen, not the ideal way to play a game

looks rather boring I think titanfall will be a better suit for my action junky needs, but its looking like a long wait for the ps4 version, but I do have a 4770k build, so I might check it out on pc

[Mikeyy]

IDK about titan Fall, I mean I love the original IW and wish them well with that game, but I'm burnt out on COD. Just tired of 6 vs 6 gameplay on closet sized maps, The gameplay needs to slow down a lot, its way to chaotic, I think Black ops 1 had it right, it slowed it all way down, and it was much more fun.

Titanfall is going to do the same old stuff we've been playing since Modern Warfare 1. I would need serious convincing, and they need to aim much higher then the status quo to wow me.

I don't understand the dislike of battlefield. You've got tactical gameplay, with squads, you've got vehicles, helicoptors, jets, large maps, 60fps fluid gameplay, 64 players, this is everything you could ever want in an FPS. Just epic warfare, yet people crawl back to their pitiful 6 vs 6 gameplay of COD and its clones...

WHY?

[Bolts]

Simple. BF series requires actual skill and situation awareness that the typical CoD maze runner lacks.

[Destrania]

Looks solid. PS4 day one for me.

[_LarZen_]

It really is not looking good, but I recon that is the camera filming the TV fault.

[Mikeyy]

We've already wen't over this. Battlefied 3 had the same issue, beta rolled around, and low and behind, the graphics sucked, everybody cried, and Dice told us its a beta build.

Release comes around, high rez textures where there, and game looked good again.

The same is happening here, OCT 1st when the beta comes around, all you people are going to scream the graphics suck ect. and history will repeat itself, its a beta.

[_LarZen_]

Hope you are right, because this looks bad.

[dethpuck]

Looks great. x1 version should look just as good. For bf3 there was a concern about the 360 version, and it turned out to be the better console version. I have full confidence in dice

[BigShotSmoov007]

I don't know if it was the better console version. All websites I seen that did comparisons said they were the same. Either way, fanboys love to jump at the chance to say the X1 will be inferior cause Dice hasn't talked about or shown it. Dice did this with Battlefield 3. They didn't talk about or show any 360 footage until about a month before launch and they turned out to be the same so all the Sony fanboys just calm down and realize the the experience will be the same for both consoles as far as looks, gameplay and overall experiences.

[xKugo]

Actually, the Xbox 360 version has much lower textures, worse bit-mapping, more screen tear and a less stable framerate. You can read the comparison on both DF and Lens of Truth. They both come to the same conclusion.

[dethpuck]

maybe, however i remember threads for week sabout input lag and chat problems. dont forget teh promised game fiasco. In the end It doesn't really matter. My friends will all be on xbox one, and in the end that is what matters to me. if I want to play the best version I could just play it on PC.

[jhoward585]

BF4 ran smooth(hiccup free) on PS4.

Off topic:

I'd really like to see titan fall running(1080p/60fps) on X1 hardware.

[memots]

Zing !

[Supermax]

A developer will never make a multiplatform look better or run better on one console and not do it for the other.they would be risk loseing millions of potential sales on one platform if they did.

[jhoward585]

Agreed, but there's certain things a DEV can't hide no matter how hard he or she tries.

[jmc8888]

But in this case they make the PC version amazing with all sorts of graphical options from low to ultra.

Then they take those assets and adapt them to PS4 and Xbox1 and see what each can do.

If people think that developers will not take advantage of the assets they have and the capability of the platform they are really fooling themselves.

Remember BF4 is competing not only against CoD, or on PS4 KZ:SF, they are competing against all games for gamer's money.

If they make the PS4 version worse then they can, then they give an advantage to these competitors, especially the direct competitors.

The Xbox One/PS4/PC version of games are not competing with each other and don't have to worry about stepping on each others proverbial toes.

Would someone really not buy a game because whatever their console was capable of, if a better version exists, they will choose not to buy their console's version out of spite? Yeah I think them competing against other games is a bigger factor in their decisions.

They have every reason to make each version the best they can possible, and considering the PC version has all sorts of configurable assets, even if they somehow didn't want to go out their way and somehow step on another version's toes, the assets are literally staring them right in the face.

[DrJones]

Well said. Intelligent post.

[T2]

yes you make a good point... if killzone looks 20 percent better for example than bf4, they could potentially lose out on some customers... I think they are better suited to maxing out each console however they can.

[awesomeperson]

That didn't apply this gen. Many PS3 ports were noticeably shoddy thanks to the complex architecture. I don't really feel like its dev's biggest worry to gimp a version simply such that it runs the same as on another.

[boing1]

True if you own multiple platforms.

[Xristo]

Happy for, soon-to-be, PS4 owners! Here's to BF4 being awesome on all platforms!

[cunnilumpkin]

ps4 version is medium settings and is native resolution BELOW 1080p

medium, not high, not very high, not ultra

medium, one step above the lowest possible

so basically, a "next gen" system goes from ps3 settings of 704p at the lowest possible settings to maybe 900p at medium settings, not what I would really call a "next gen" leap at all

more like a minor upgrade, and from looking at all the games on ps4, that seems pretty consistent

whats really sad, is the xbox1 is even weaker

"next gen" looks more like ps3.5 and xbox360.5

[jhoward585]

Comparing PC resolution to home console resolution wont matter much because majority of LCD TV out on the market have screen enhancement filters while most PC monitor don't.

The filters on an LCD tv tends to blur the graphics a bit.

[Majin-vegeta]

Shouldnt you be petiioning for GTA V for PC?

[cunnilumpkin]

why would I, lol...its coming and it won't look like trash like it does on ps3/360

plus, I plan on waiting until its on sale for $20 on steam, should be about 2 months after release

just got bioshock infinite and mafia 2 for $11

you keep buying those $65 games though, and that dlc too

[xKugo]

The first part of your statement is true, but I disagree when you say that this is consistent with other PS4 next-gen games. I'm sorry but all PS4 exclusives are at native 1080p and frankly that's OK. A console is not going to achieve the amount of graphical fidelity of a PC gaming rig for the price that it is offered at. It just won't and people are OK with this because honestly a gaming PC is not worth what it cost to most people. It doesn't have the type of games that the mainstream media and general public care about and PC gamers are often looked at as socially unaccepted nerds. RTS, strategy and the GOD genre do not appeal to most people and PC has nowhere near the amount of AAA-exclusives that it used to. And that's just the truth, whether you want to except it or not.

Also I'm going to tell you something right now and I hope that PC elitist like you get this through your thick skulls. I have a gaming PC; I pretty good one in my opinion. A 4770k CPU o/c at 4.1Ghz, EVGA GTX 780, 4 slotted mobo with 16gb of Corsair DDR3 ram +3gb of GDDR5. That PC, with all it's raw power, will not run games 5 years from now on, even on low settings. A console will and it's because cnosoles last whereas PCs do not. A gaming PC from 5 years with no upgrades would not play AC3 at all but a console can because they last. It just won't and this is something that people like you seem to overlook; unless you upgrade it, you will not be gaming at a higher resolution than consoles for any more than 2-3 years, especially if it's not a really good one. Consoles may not be what gaming rigs are, but they have WAY more longevity than a PC does. It's not even close, just to be honest. I love PC gaming but it has it's faults , dude. It's not perfect by ANY stretch of the imagination and can be extremely annoying to deal with.

You should really excuse yourself from even being in this article, because it has nothing to do with PC players like me OR you. We have no business comparing a gamign PC to a console anyway because the two are not comparable. Leave the console players alone; No point in diminishing their excitement for the PS4. Go to the PC section or something. There news about project cars and DDR4 early previews. Make yourself busy.

[cunnilumpkin]

hmmmm....that's weird because an NVidia 8800 gpu came out the same time the ps4 did in 2006, it ran games better than the ps3 ever DREAMED of running them and STILL does to this day

want proof??

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

the ps3 can only run bf3 in the LOWEST possible settings at 704p

so, everything you said, just so you know, is absolutely, 100% false

a gtx 660 ti is FAR more powerful than the ps4 EVER will be, and that will be true 8 years from now

and an 680 absolutely KILLS the ps4

and a 780 is a full generation beyond the ps4

[sorane]

"A 4770k CPU o/c at 4.1Ghz, EVGA GTX 780, 4 slotted mobo with 16gb of Corsair DDR3 ram +3gb of GDDR5. That PC, with all it's raw power, will not run games 5 years from now on, even on low settings.

That is one of the most clueless and wrong posts I have ever read on this website. You know absolutely nothing about pcs. My old 4850 in my backup pc runs things just fine still and that was midrange when I bought it 5-6 years ago. I can easily run multiplat games at higher settings than the console versions with it. I seriously got dumber reading your post......

edit: Oh and I gotta say that ps4 version in the vid is looking a lot better than I thought it would. Wish it'd have cross-platform play even if it was limited to gamepads.

[mistertwoturbo]

I have a 2600k at 4.4ghz, and a GTX680.. I do play most of my games on PC, but man it's been about almost two years now where most of the games barely break a sweat. It's like I bought a 600hp Ferrari to drive it at most 140mph knowing it's capable of 200mph. While it's great fun at 140mph, it's a shame that I can't take it to 200mph more often. Obviously not a direct analogy, but it's pointless considering the amount of money I've spent.

But one thing I love about consoles is that you know they tax the hell out of those systems to try and extract every ounce of the hardware and in a sense you get what you pay for and in the case of the PS4, it's only $400 and will deliver some kick ass games.

[tigertron]

I have a couple of PCs, one of which is one that I bought in 2005. Can it play GTAV or the Last of Us? I very much doubt it.

[memots]

Maybe its cunnilumpkin no one cares what you think.5
Or Stfu.5

I am a PC gamer first and i can tell you you are being an ...... , We are talking console here so gtfo.5

Buying a new Video for a couple hundreds dollars every year is what ? My last PC.5 ??

[windblowsagain]

Trouble is the video he posted about 8800gtx is bullshit.

No fps counter, no proof whatsoever.

And no a 8800gtx is not going to max out BF3, if it did it would be 15-20fps no aa.

I think maybe cunnilumpkin had a sony/microsoft machine dropped on his head as a child. That would explain why he hates consoles.

Or he bought an 8800gtx and is butt hurt.

[sourav93]

Looks good. Can't wait for the 29th of Nov! (lucky Americans :P )

[glenn1979]

man its funny how people speculate about ps4 vs xbox1,i will judge when the games are out, I don't care whose the most powerful , in the end is all in the hand of the developers and indies, quality games,sevice,feature etc etc is all that matter in the end that will sell or move the machines

[meatysausage]

exactly

[Belking]

pc and xbox-one versions will be the one t get. Ps4 version doesn't use Direct x which the game was built aroun. Plus xb1 and pc versions will be 64 players and 60fps and 1080p, not on ps4 though.

[Kayant]

The FUD is strong in this one.... Loool

That's interesting yet we haven't seen BF4 running on an XB1 devkit yet... But it's been shown on PC and PS4 two times now. And dice never confirmed 1080p for next-gen consoles.

[prodg52]

That rumor that the PS4 doesn't use Direct x 11.2 has already officially been proven wrong.
http://www.gdcvault.com/pla...

[srd4484]

sorry but MS owns Direct x. It's something similar to direct x

[BG11579]

People still think that Direct X is something good?
In PC gaming, Direct X is only hindering the power of the machines. Why do you think that MS created a nex version for the Xbone?

[PFFT]

Yeah but DX11.2 will be exclusive to Pc and Xbox One. Already been confirmed by Ms. Ps4 will have to stick to Open Gl even if its compatible.

[meatysausage]

dude, the XBO and PS4 versions will be exactly the same, 720p 64 players. Xbox wont have the better version, its still a launch title, you wont see any difference. Not this early in the console life

[Mikeyy]

They seriously need to ban you, you add nothing constructive, provide zero proof and spread false rumors, you and the discrete GPU guy, Elite gamer.

Nothing but BS ever comes out of your posts.

oh and why hasnt the Xbone version been showed off yet? oh let me guess, I have to wait till the 29th, and MS reveals the "real" xbox one. Thats what your camp beleives anyway.

[ziggurcat]

sorry, belking, but xbone can't do native 1080p. it upscales all games to 1080p, so BF4 on xbone will be 60fps, but natively less than 1080p.

PS4 version will also have 64 players, so i don't see why you're beating your shallow chest over that.

[Manic2014]

Read the tweet.

https://twitter.com/aarongr...

Forza 5 is native 1080p. Stop spreading false info.

[ziggurcat]

i suggest you read the tweet again.

he claims forza is native 1080p, and in the same sentence says that *all* xbone games are *upscaled* to 1080p.

which means that while he says forza's native 1080p, the reality is, since he also says that xbone *upscales* all games to 1080p, the forza isn't actually native 1080p.

you can't say something is native 1080p, and then in the same breath state that the console upscales everything to that resolution.

[urwifeminder]

Pc for me i can not go back to a lower resolution for BF4 the change was massive.

[WorldGamer]

All I have to ask all the haters now is....... http://www.reactiongifs.com...

[xKugo]

Better than I was expecting. Jackfrags said it was comparable to mid-settings on PC and it looks like that's about right. Didn't see any pop-in which is great because the game is still being tweaked and optimized. Even from the off-screen video, the visual upgrade to PS4 is literally night and day from PS3. Game will probably be comparable to mid-to high settings on the PS4 with a solid 60 fps and if lucky at a resolution slightly below 900p or even right at it. Sucks that it probably won't be 1080p/60fps but it's still WAAAAY better than BF3 on PS3. Wasn't even 720p/30fps so this a gigantic jump is visual fidelity. Overall news is well recieved.

[Supermax]

Just a thought only 10 percent of PC gamers will have a rig capable of ultra settings.

[thehitman]

Less than that... 10% of PC gamers will just be able to run this at 1080p ultra settings at 30 fps.. even less about 5% probably will run it at 60 fps.

Which comes to my next point people really shouldnt be argueing what resolution the game is running at. People should be asking what texture/effect/lighting levels the game will be on compared to PC. Will it be medium? high? ultra. Resolution only makes the image more crisp but a 720p game can look MUCH better than a 1080p game if it has better textures etc. Its already confirmed that w/e settings DICE uses it will be adjusted around locking the game at 60fps so what quality is left after that is the BIG ?.

[Mikeyy]

If this was on steam I'd consider getting it, I did just get a new GTX 760, but I refuse to use Origin.

[Bladesfist]

I don't get why people say these things. I have a rig that will run it on Ultra, why should I care if others do not. I know 0% of console gamers will run it on Ultra as well but I don't care about that either.

[srd4484]

How can people judge the graphics from watching this video? Seems like everyone went straight to the comments section. This video isn't the greatest. Calm down people. Lets wait for a better quality video.

[Jovanian]

PC for me

Console BF4
-gimped controls, playing a shooter with a controller why would ANYONE do this
-sub-1080p native resolution, probably around the 900s
-good framerate, but at the cost of graphics and anti aliasing. Its about at the medium setting on consoles

[srd4484]

http://news.softpedia.com/n...

Patrick Bach, the executive producer working on Battlefield 4, says that the coming shooter can deliver 64-player matches running at 60 FPS because it uses the features of the new Frostbite 3 engine and the extra power of the Xbox One home console.

He tells the official Xbox site that, “Many of the leads on the core Battlefield development team have been working together for years now, some since the beginning with Battlefield 1942. Now that we have the tech, the team and the hardware in place, we can create spectacular, 64-player matches at 60fps on the Xbox One.”

I'm outta here! "drops the mic"

[Mikeyy]

Pick that mic back up, You answered the question like a politition, because you did'nt even answer the question, we already know the XBONE version is 60 FPS.

People are asking for proof the Xbone version is 1080P.

And a 1 paragraph article? LOL.

[voodoogts]

Those are PC rigs... just look tgs coverage pics. Lol

[PFFT]

Yep like they did with Need For Speed over at gamescom. The dev for need for speed did say that one of the console version would look PC like now we know why. Cause the so called PS4 version was actually running on PC. And that smug SOB Shuhei was boasting about.........lol poor little S***.

[ziggurcat]

@ voodoo & PFFT:

post a link proving your claims or quit your trolling.

[Nekroo91]

dont know what a devkits is?! sony isnt like MS using nvidia high end gpu when they use a low end gpu from amd...

[Ve_Chuy]

a Shooter with a gamepad is like playing a fighting game with a mouse. So ridiculous

[TKCMuzzer]

Lol, you PC gamers, your make me laugh. It's far more relaxing after a day at work to lie on your couch with a game pad than sit yourself 2 feet from a monitor using a keyboard and mouse, oh a lot less nerdy to boot.

[Ve_Chuy]

Dude is a pc i can do exactly that to. Try play dota 2 with a controller and tell me how relaxing is that.

[horndog]

That doesn't look 1080p/60. Thought the ps4 was capable to handle anything. Oh well...didn't beleive the hype to begin with.

[Sonysexual]

Dead Rising 3 - 720p with "Dynamic Resolution"
Killer Instinct - 720p
RYSE - 900p
Forza 5 - 1080p

Compare that with:

Blacklight Retribution: 1080p
Warframe: 1080p
Killzone: 1080p
Knack: 1080p
Drive Club: 1080p
Resogun: 1080p
Planetside 2: 1080p

[MasterCornholio]

Dynamic Resolution?

Is that similar to what the developers did with Wipeouts frame buffer on the PS3?

Nexus 7 2013

[neoMAXMLC]

A Microsoft fanboy not believing in the hype of a Playstation product. So surprising.

[xkevmandc]

Lol, that's looks outdated....getting the PC version.

[corvusmd]

Are we sure this isn't a dev kit? Not actually trying to talk trash, but seriously, it's well known that at least up to this point PS4 has been using devkits for demos...not saying that THIS is, but is there any proof that it's not?

[younglj01]

Personally 720p 60fps with 64 players would not be bad for an launch multi-platform title.But if PlanetSide 2 release on the PS4 in Ultra then DICE/EA might be forced too say that XB1 is not as power as the PS4...

If SOE is able too delivery High End graphics on the PS4 with PS2 as an launch title,then I can't wait too see what ND and SMS will do.

If this is PS4 gameplay then it look lovely.I think Multi-platform games will be developed on the PS4 then XB1.With so many MP titles showing on the PS4 is truly shocking.MS had the biggest 3rd Party Marketing Campaign with the 360.

So hopefully developers take advantage of both systems...

[SonyAddict]

Has any game ran on x1?.

[GodGinrai]

forza 5, killer instinct, ryse, DR3.....

[SonyAddict]

Show me proof!

[GodGinrai]

Go do your own damn research! lol..google is your freind. It not hard to find native X1 footage of the games I just mentioned at all!

Maybe you should stop being an ignorant fanboy. you proclaim the proof does not exist..but a simple google search will prove you wrong, very quickly. go ahead..knock yourself out, homie.

[solidboss07]

I believe that with time and optimisation XBone and PS4 could run this game 1080p@60fps, there just won't be time to deliver that.
And the facts are that PS4 would be much more capable of delivery, just fact, move on.

[tudors]

Looks pretty much the same as BF3, which is not really a bad thing.

[windblowsagain]

I've played the PC version as well. Looks ok. Did not blow me away. But early days. No difference other then players atm.

Only way to tell PC/PS4 will be side to side under a magnifying glass.

[Klonoa-dreamtraveler]

red shirt confirmed.

[CallDaCheeseBox]

It looks really good! I can't wait to play this on PS4. I'm so glad that the PS4's hardware allowed them to employ higher framerates!

Why are we looking at the same damn series? This isn't nothing new like COD same shyt every year.

1080p??

I will be very dissapointed if it does no do 1080p especially when many ppl are emphasizing tha the xbox 1 and ps4 are next gen.

[Metfanant]

Nah...neither console is going to hit 1080p...last we knew the PS4 version was running somewhere between 720p and 1080p at 60fps...expect something like 1600x900 like Ryse...

[Rageanitus]

that's too bad

I am a PS fan, but i'm gonna laugh at all those PS/Xbox fanboys who kept emphasizing that its better than a PC etc etc.

[Metfanant]

It's better than any PC you can build for $400 that's for sure...

HNNG!! DAT WATER!

"EA sends out the message to media outlets that nothing is wrong with next gen versions of game compared to PC, and to never look directly at gameplay"

[solidt12]

ooooh I cant wait!!!! Im gon shoot somebody!!!!

[Kos-Mos]

This is supposed to be next generation? Pc have done this years ago. Why do people critize Wii U? Oh forget it.

[Metfanant]

And still nobody cares

Why do PC gamers come across as so insecure? They take off cam footage which has little clarity and use it as an opportunity to big up their own PC. I just don't get it.
