Thuway: Titanfall 360 Close To X1, CBOAT Leak Was Genuine

Insider thuway confirmed that despite Respawn's denial, the leak about alpha textures being final is real. Also, Titanfall 360 looks good enough to be close to Xbox One's version.

[Gozer]

Oh Lord here we go again

[TomShoe]

Come on everybody, let's go again.

http://images5.fanpop.com/i...

But still, that's not surprising. Bluepoint is the best in the business at ports. I wonder how this will affect XBO sales, considering you don't need one to play the game. Will people ditch their 360s for a slightly improved version? Time will tell.

[Gozer]

@abzdine
Most ports look similar because they use the same assets. Even your "mighty" ps4 looks similar to the 3rd party ports that it has right now. So you are trolling for no reason.

Titanfall for X1 will be the version to own, I have no doubt.

[Festano]

I hope that things will change on xboxone.

[Eonjay]

Why no 360 BETA.... oh.
So PC it is.
Colonel Marines is gonna be awesome!
In all seriousness though that good news for 360.

[Alexious]

Personally I'll stick to my PC version in 4K, shouldn't even be heavy in terms of requirements as it is Source Engine after all.

[Kleptic]

Alexious: No joke...So far it looks like a business laptop could run it...Probably going to be one of the more popular games for 4k, as the requirements are going to be extremely low i'd imagine...at least based on whats been shown...

[Gazondaily]

Time will tell :) Not long to go.

The question is, who do you trust; the devs who have stated quite CLEARLY that the alpha textures are not the same, or a leaker, who has been wrong on many accounts.

Also, it has to be said, the insecurities of certain fanboys BEGGING, HOPING and PRAYING for Titanfall to suffer, particularly on the X1 is so transparent lol.

All that will disappear with the sequel no doubt; when it graces all consoles :) See Bungie and Destiny for proof

[BlackTar187]

@ septic

Did people actually say anythign bad about Bungie?

They have made great games in every single athing they've done. I can't imagine that many people hated on BUNGIE. I do see hate for Halo and i like Halo but i can see where people would think its kinda over the top and such. Anyways Bungie are great they've made great games everytime they've attempted games.

[Codey47]

@Truefan

I'm a PS4, PS3, PSVita launch owner and 360 owner(Since Nov 2013)

I have very little interest in Titanfall and have zero interest in seeing it on a Sony platform. I won't purchase Titanfall on 360.

I think you have the message now

I'm NOT interested.

[silenius]

I don't see the problem with this.
actually I'm quite happy as a gamer for these news.
the reason is..

A) I don't own a strong computer to handle Titanfall at max settings.

B) I Don't want to spend money in XB1.(No titles that interest me) + it's too expensive for what it is.

C) Xbox 360 has more or less 78 million owners...
which means that even if the 10% of them get Titanfall on 360 that is a massive 7.8 million players!
MORE than the install base of the XB1.

i think my argument stands quite solid.
So if the rumor is ture... then I could not be any happier.

[scott182]

@xfan1

Don't throw your X1 away because it can't have an open world game in next gen 1080p.. :'(

[mewhy32]

i have two 360's and a PS4. It's sad that the 360 has almost the ability as the bone. i'll be getting this on the 360. Well i'll have to get two copies so my kids can play against one another LOL.

[AngelicIceDiamond]

@abzdine

"game looking the same on x1 and 360 is an insult to you xbox fans."

Only a fanboy would say something like that good god. How is that insulting?

Its proof Titanfall is in a good hands of developers. Just because its last gen doesn't mean we should just gimp the version and tell last gen owners to screw off.

Destiny's coming to current gen as well your probably hoping they gimp the PS3 and 360 version so you can feel superior and better about your purchase.

Because god forbid the devs tiresomely trying to develop all the platforms at the same and make the current gen look presentably good despite pushing the very last inch of power devs are struggling to get out of these old machines...

Insiders VS devs http://www.dualshockers.com...

Yeah, I'll believe the guys who's actually, believe it or not, have been working on the game for 2 in a half years.

[WrAiTh Sp3cTr3]

Infamous doesn't even look next gen. You folks are hyping because that's all you have to hype right now.

[BlackTar187]

Wraith,

Now we know you smoking crack.

[Silly Mammo]

@WrAiTh Sp3cTr3- And all you X1 owners have to get hyped about is Titanfall and it's not even an exclusive.

[MysticStrummer]

@Angelic - I don't think the abdzine comment you're replying to has anything to do with gimping, and even if it did it would be the XB1 version being gimped to achieve parity, not the 360 version.

I think the point of that comment was that XB1's tech is such a small step above 360s that the game looks much the same on both. It's an insult to present such a small technical advance as "next gen". Just my interpretation. Discard at will.

As for believing the devs, Respawn originally claimed Titanfall was only possible because of the cloud. Do you really believe that?

lol @ Wraith. I imagine being a blind gamer is a tough thing to pull off.

[ShinMaster]

With the Xbox One hogging all the hype surrounding Titanfall, I would be surprised if many people out there are not aware that the game is also available on their Xbox 360s.

If the word spreads to everyone out there who's considering buying XB1 and Titanfall that the game looks and is pretty much the same on 360.

What did you guys expect from COD devs.

[WrAiTh Sp3cTr3]

Blacktar, lol, if I do it's not the type you could afford...ask your mom.

[ITPython]

I had a feeling that despite them claiming otherwise, that the rumor was likely true. I mean Respawn said "Why would we lie, that doesn't benefit us", and I immediately thought, of course it benefits you, since people will be buying the full game anticipating higher textures, but won't get them. And since they already bought it and opened it up, they are screwed and Respawn gets a +1 on a sale. It's a classic bait and switch tactic.

And you know what Respawn will say to those who figure out the truth? "Oh don't worry, we will be patching in the higher res textures soon, we just wanted to make sure the release was smooth as possible". And 2-4 months down the line they will patch it in.

The really sad thing is, they will probably add more texture resolution months after release, but it's not going to be nearly as much as they originally claimed. Cause let's face it, the XB1 simply cannot handle it. And there is a high probability that when they do add that tiny bit of extra texture res, that it will impact the fps. Which makes me believe that they might sneak in a stealth resolution drop-down to make up for it.

I actually feel kinda bad for the XB1 players, they are getting shafted left and right and it doesn't seem to be slowing anytime soon. Although we all saw the warning signs, yet they still chose to buy the console. So maybe I don't feel bad afterall.

[u got owned]

I smell a lot of insecurity in this thread

[UKRsoldier]

ITPython -

So the Xbox One can't handle 720P/60FPS with textures that are anything other than low-rez? Hmm, thanks, you sure sound like you know what you're talking about.

/sarcasm

[BG11579]

At this point, I'm wondering if the PC version is going to be truncated in some way to favor the Xbone's version.

[ZombieKiller]

Well honestly, it was my initial idea to buy the X1 with Titanfall...but I have been struggling to justify a purchase with all this crap surrounding the X1. The policies, the forced kinect, etc etc.
Since my 360 red ringed 3 times, I didn't want to pump any more money into MS. I'm also a Playstation fanboy because I've been treated like crap by MS in my opinion and just like the PS brand better

BUT--

I reflowed my 360 and it's been working VERY well since then. So I think that I am just going with the 360 version as this game is the only exclusive I see so far that fits my wants.

[christocolus]

@Gozer

If the final game on xbx one is just as good looking as the versions which gamers and critics tried out at e3, gamescom and the xbx one pre-launch road show then theres no need to worry.

The game will soon be released, then we will know the truth but for now xbx fans need to treat this as the rumor that it is.

@abdzine

Xbx fans aint complaining so why are you bothered?

[abzdine]

cause almost only xbox fanboys own x1. wise people anticipated these things since may 21st.

you decide to buy x1 you assume all this.

[hakeem0996]

I never thought that would see the day where people would believe an anonymous leaker over the people that actually is making the damn game .I've seen it all . I need to cancel my N4G account before i get infected with a huge dose of STUPIDITY

[805Junior805]

The demo at E3 was running on PC

[Stryfeno2]

@hakeem0996 Oh dear God, take me with you.

[BitbyDeath]

'Xbx fans aint complaining so why are you bothered?'

They're too busy being in denial to complain, read some of the comments above, sad, just enjoy your console even with its flaws. Surely you bought it for a reason other than cause it was made by Microsoft.

[dale_denton]

lol keep it M$..

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

The Developer already denied it, so end of story, what the hell is wrong with this site, consider another user gone after this, tired of this biased site now -_-

[elninels]

Not the site, the users of said site.

[MannGamer]

Ok let's admit that those rumors are true. As soon as the developer came out to deny it, they will sure add something to make it looks better than the alpha. They will definitely had something more so that it doesn't look like the alpha.
So even if those rumors are true as of today. They will surely be wrong by the time the game release cause MS can't afford that rumor to be true at all. And again because a developer came out to deny it that only confirms that they will add something more on the Xbox One version

[FlunkinMonkey]

A second account running off spouting rubbish about the PS4 is moaning about what is wrong with this site, brilliant. The irony is strong.

You're tired of this site? I'll tell you what, how about you take you and your multiple personalities with you? Vamoosh.

Ta'ta

[ITPython]

"The Developer already denied it, so end of story"

Yeah, cause we all know it is impossible for a dev to lie. Just like it is impossible for the president of the United States to lie.

Boy, if only that was true.

[Prime157]

You obviously don't get that this is user submitted news.

[silenius]

I don't see the problem with this.
actually I'm quite happy as a gamer for these news.
the reason is..

A) I don't own a strong computer to handle Titanfall at max settings.

B) I Don't want to spend money in XB1.(No titles that interest me) + it's too expensive for what it is.

C) Xbox 360 has more or less 78 million owners...
which means that even if the 10% of them get Titanfall on 360 that is a massive 7.8 million players!
MORE than the install base of the XB1.

i think my argument stands quite solid.
So if the rumor is ture... then I could not be any happier.

EDIT: sorry for the double post...

[sergons]

Lol Titanflop will run at max settings on any ancient pc, same as cod.

[frostypants]

Wait...I thought the One version used "teh cloud powah". Surely this game is not possible on the 360 if "teh cloud powah" is so important? Or, if all the versions use "teh cloud powah", then why again do I need a One?

[esemce]

Only possible in the clouds sounds like MS BS to me. EA and MS make a great couple like a marriage made in hell.

[DoubleM70]

Really

http://www.respawn.com/news...

[ITPython]

Can you imagine a world where the AI in TF isn't controlled by the cloud?

Just imagine... instead of them standing around doing practically nothing, they can stand around and do literally nothing.

Amazing!

[Prime157]

@Doublem70

It's a form of dedicated servers. People who don't get dedicated servers have never gamed on pc pre-cod:mw1. Stop buying into the pr. MOST OF US GET WHAT PLAYER HOSTED VS DEDICATED MEANS.

The cloud that ms is pushing is an interesting form of dedicated servers, but not what they keep spinning it to be. I won't deny that it could be what they spin after a few years, and maybe that is their plan. HOWEVER, right now and at least 18 more months it will be a dream and until that dream is achieved it's just pr spin.

[BG11579]

Remember... Remember the latest Simcity that used dedicated servers because it was necessary for the increase performance (AKA cloud computing)...
Oh that went well...

[otherZinc]

For those of us that played the TitanFall demo, know it was Badd@ss! just the way it was. I'm positive, 99.9% of us would play TitanFall as is!

Question:
How's TitanFall running on the PS4 & PS3?

Hater articles make me laugh.

[ThePope]

Respawn has been nothing but open about the game. Not only that why would they lie about their first game.

Yeah this article is going to get all sorts of up votes because the Sony fanboys are BEGGING for the rumor to be true.

[DoubleM70]

@otherZinc

I'm laughing my ass off. The game is tight as hell. They like reading this propganda bull shit. I guess they forgot about all the Game of the year awards it has already. Even before the game has came out. I smell fear.

[T2]

titanfall would in fact run better on the ps4 but it just so happens it's not available, just like sony exclusives are not for xb1.... but I see great trolling attempt.

[kickerz]

Hate to say it but no Titanfall would not run better on your PS4 because it's an online game running on microsofts dedicated servers. Respawn choose Microsoft because of this. Yes it might be 1080p on PS4 but the online experience would be pretty average with player hosted matches.

[DevilishSix]

Kickerz

Hate to burst your bubble respawn didn't chose MS dedicated servers, hell they have came out and said they were the last to know of the exclusive deal with MS. Oh and do we know for sure that MS is operating the servers, this is an EA published title and they like to maintain control of their games. Not sure MS has anything to do with this title other than its only on their platforms.

[kickerz]

Well if you read DoubleM70s link a few posts up, a guy who works for Respawn states they went to Sony and Microsoft at the start and Microsoft was the one who offered dedicated servers. Maybe he's lying, maybe it's more about money.. I don't know, I'm just saying what I've read ey .

[Silly Mammo]

@otherZinc- If it turns out to be good, I'll pick it up for my PC. Can't think the specs will be too taxing on my mid-range PC.

[Arkardo]

Well there you go, if this is true i sincerely wish the best for titanfall taking down the protagonist paper to COD, maybe this is what all Xbone fanboys need to realize the inferiority of the Xbone

Then they could move on, accept the facts and praise their games for what they are and not keep denying what the world has been telling to them everyday

[ThePope]

Wouldn't praising the games for what they are be the point for everyone? No matter how good a game looks if it sucks, it sucks. But look at it this way while Xbox One owners will be killing it in Titanfall on the best MP servers ever made. Sony fans can play Killzone online. Well I mean if you can find a game. I hear that's pretty much impossible.

[Qrphe]

If Xbox fans deny that 1080p is better than 720p and that 60fps is superior to 720p, then it's clear they'll never accept anything.

[Malacath]

@Qrphe

Do you even know what you are talking about?

What do you mean by 60fps is better than 720p?

Frames per second and resolution are totally different things.

As usual another sad pathetic fanboy talking crap.

[BallsEye]

Amazing how people still believe neogaf insiders, even when dev himself went on forum and denied it. Shows how blind **** hive is.

[BG11579]

Amazing how people deny all MS past history and believe what lie they say.
Until this day, some "insiders" from NEOGAF have told more truths than MS did. That's why people believe then. Specially with MS, because they feel it's a good policy to lie to costumers. Then gain the habit of doing it. When people found out, they as usual denied it with the power of all their money.
E3 :"Look at this games, all in 1080 and 60fps... Only possible in Xbox One". Somethings can't never be taken back.

[BallsEye]

@BG11579

Amazing how you forget sonys past. first PS that you had to put upside down to read discs. ps2 that had more issues than any other system and was boasted by sony to have graphics on par with Pixar movies. ps3 that was supposed to have 4D graphics (yep another lie...4d graphics..lol) and again showing fake gameplay of killzone, saying it's real time (hello first e3 killzone gameplay). Did same with ps4's Deep Down, putting hud on screen to make you believe it's gameplay.

Every company will do anything to sell product and sony is not sait, just like MS. And insiders on neogaf making riight predictions? If you would really follow you would know that they were right only 2/20 tries and only with the obvious stuff. Keep trying.

[DigitalRaptor]

It's amazing just how much stock you put into the words of Xbox officials about the power of the Xbone and "the cloud" that hasn't shown anything remotely tangible, and the ones like Penello and Hyrb that sign up for Neogaf to damage control lie about their product and get ousted for blatantly lying to their consumer base. No other corporation is even close to THAT desperate to manipulate their consumer base.

Talk about blind, when you are the one spreading crap about a game like inFamous: Second Son where we have already seen how outrageously amazing it looks running on PS4 hardware in native 1080p. I guess that GDDR5 definitely doesn't help with open-world games. Right?

And dude, if it wasn't for those Neogaf insiders like Pete Dodd, you'd still have your gracious DRM f**kbox, that believe me, would be getting MS a lot more heat than you see today.

"only with the obvious stuff"

You don't even know the scope of what these insiders have leaked now, do you? SMFH.

[CertifiedGamer]

See if they would have said the xbone version looks close to the PC, it would have been a complement, but the insults is already said and done 360 looks close to the Xbone.

[hellzsupernova]

Ah yes. Not long to go now. I'm sure the game will be a lot of fun and is that not the main thing?

[alb1899]

Will yo guys feel better if it was just for X1, so you don't have to compare and talk?
What is the problem?
I don't care if it look similar
From the first time I saw Titan Fall I new it won't be about graphics.
You guys are just jealous that every x1 owner will have more fun than you
You ps4 fan boys want this game so bad

[mayberry]

With how cheap the 360 is, the majority of sony fans have one, myself included, this game will be played by the most die-hard sony fans! Without getting a xbone! Gamers that only have a ps4 are problably very rare!

[Prime157]

I'll enjoy it on my pc, thank you. You xbox fanboys label anyone who isn't a fan of what you are a fan of as a Sony fan. I admit, I'm actually a battlefield fan more than this new moba: cod style. Have fun killing bots.

The difference is that I have been gaming on dedicated servers longer than some of you to understand the pr you get fed.

[ocelot07]

I really really don't. Now if I did want it ill just get it on PC and if I really wanted to. Ill use my PS4 controller with it :0. Or if for some reason I don't want it on PC ill just buy it on Xbox 360. You do know this game is coming to 360 right?

[avengers1978]

How close is "close". TitanFall is a huge chance for MS to show current 360 gamers the reason why you should go next gen. If it fails to do that Halo 5 is there next shot and that is late 2014- early 2015. That could turn into an issue.
I mean they really don't want Sony to be at 10 million and them be at 5 by the end of next year.

IMO I think TitanFall will be loads better on XB1 than on 360...
And if MS has any say over it, it should even be better than the PC version(not saying it will, but it does make sense for XBOX/MS to make the XB1 version of the game the best version)

[miDnIghtEr20C_SfF]

I can't believe this guy is getting news headlines. Most of the time always wrong, and N4G sony fans hoping from the worst of their always bad Xbox/MS rumors they pull out their butts.

Now it's Respawn versus random internet guys. Thuway isn't even in the video game business yet all these people believe all this crap. The dude is a med student. He has nothing to do with video games.

[DigitalRaptor]

So how does Pete Dodd have all his contacts?

How does anybody know anybody?

The dude worked for Nintendo in a fairly high-up role for some time, and has had roles at VG companies in the past. Only the mindlessly desperate loyalists are looking to discredit a person who knows more of the industry and people within it, than they do. What this is, is classic outsider complex.

And what about all those negative rumours we heard months in advance to E3 that ended up being outrageously true? You folks were still blindly damage controlling those "rumours pulled from our butts", so it says more about your inability to handle the truth than those promoting it.

[Majin-vegeta]

This is popcorn worthy. http://www.reactiongifs.com...

OT:Wish it was March already so we can finally find out who been lying.

Edit:@Convas and what if they're right??

[bessy67]

But they're not right.

https://twitter.com/Respawn...

[Majin-vegeta]

Of course they're gonna come out and deny it.Why would they tell you it is??That would just mean loss of sales.

[bessy67]

Stop being such a fanboy Majin-vegeta. You'd believe Respawn if what they were telling you made Xbox sound bad, but you don't believe them when what they're telling you isn't bad for Xbox. I mean seriously, in what world is a med student a more trusted source for information on a game than people working on the game?

[Majin-vegeta]

@Bessy lol sounds like my comment struck a nerve.

Like i said come March will find out who was right and who wasn't.

[Kryptix]

We'll see what happens with that. Battlefield 3 had the same thing going where the developers said the game will look better but ended up looking similar to the final product.

http://www.computerandvideo...

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

If EA told them to compress the game for the beta then most likely being the same people, they didn't tell Respawn to compress it that much so we might see a few improvements here and there similar to BF3 and BF4 during and after the beta.

[-Foxtrot]

Your calling him a fanboy for not believing them even though he could call you a fanboy FOR believing them....but he didn't

[avengers1978]

That tweet is in reference to the alpha on the XB1, and it being similar to the final build of the XB1 version of the game. It does not compare the 360 version to the XB1 version, in any way.

[Convas]

March will be interesting indeed.

If the insiders are wrong, they'll simply say "THINGS CHANGED, WE CAN'T CONTROL THAT" and suddenly, they're absolved of all responsibility.

[barb_wire]

But on the flip side..

What if it turns out the insiders were (are) right?

What then?

[malokevi]

Then Respawn are the liars. But if I have to choose between trusting the developers of a soon-to-be-released game [who have stated prior to this that Alpha visuals were tempered], or self-proclaimed "insiders" from neoGAF... I'm going to trust the former.

[Hicken]

@malokevi: Cuz devs would never lie to try and get people to buy their games.

[darx]

What if they all lied. What then?

[Irishguy95]

Respawn will have lost all credibility with the gaming community for good.

[TomShoe]

Devs usually don't lie, they just hide the truth, much like the Aliens: Colonial Marines debacle.

[n4rc]

Its ridiculous is believe this over respawn. They come out and 100% denied this was true.. And stated why would they lie?

And why would they? So the day before release they are shown to be liars and sales tank? Hypothetically anyways

It makes no sense.. What does make sense is using less assets for your alpha test..

[malokevi]

@Hicken

Copout response.

Whose more likely to lie? The devs who have a reputation to uphold, or some nobody hiding behind a Pseudonym and posting on a forum that has historically entertained rumors that turned out to be ridiculous?

Use some sense. People already know this game is fun to play, they have nothing to gain by spouting BS. At this point nothing can stop this game, as hard as the "insiders" may try.

[Eonjay]

@malokevi

Or they could just do a beta on 360 and be done with it. Seems a little odd that 360 is left out.
Destiny beta is on 360, PS3, Xbox One, and PS4.

[Kayant]

@Eonjay

Respawn are not developing the X360 version so that could be why there isn't one.

[Kayant]

Can't wait to find out who's right.

Is the X360 version for sure 60fps? If so XB1 will still have better framerate performance at the end of the day.

[ichdich]

Xbox 360 , 600p - Xbox One - 720p

[GW212]

Yeah, you're probably right. Although, Titanfall isn't impressive from a graphical standpoint. Wouldn't surprise me if the XB1 could hit a higher resolution.

[ichdich]

Titanfall’s Gameplay make me Forget About Its Resolution while playing the Alpha.

[sAVAge_bEaST]

Either is COD, and we all know about Resolution-Gate. 720p Source Engine is all the xbone can seem to handle....

The funny thing is that a few months ago, people were calling the Ps3.5, IN the same breath that Gimmie Gimmie Gimmicks,(CLWD & KINECT) xbone was the true next gen experince.. Turns out, it's the other way around. the xbone360.5, can't even output 1080p60fps.

[eliasg]

still no Titanfall for PS4...

[SmielmaN]

How's The Order looking on the xbone?

[FITgamer]

I said in previous article that i wouldn't be surprised if they were keeping the 360 version such a secret to try to push Xbox One sales because the two would be almost identical.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

This crap again.. I'll listen to Respawn over NeoGAF goober any day.

[Mikefizzled]

I have to agree with you there. Especially cause of your great username. When you're not called GiantEnemyCrab do you refer to yourself as Riiiiiiidge Raaaaaacer?

[badz149]

OMG it's GEC!

[GW212]

Either way, Titanfall doesn't look impressive graphically. I'm hoping the gameplay makes up for that. Outside of Halo, I don't care for the XB1 exclusives so this could go a long way to getting me to pick one up after a price drop. Until then, I'm good with my PS4. I'll be a happy camper when Infamous drops in 6 weeks.

[Play2Win]

On PC it will put every console to shame. Just saying.

[Play2Win]

And what is your point? Windows is Microsoft, yes. And I'm fine with it.

[GW212]

Blood from a stone. It may look better than the console version. But that's like saying "my shit stinks less than yours."

... Unless you like stinky shits. To each their own.

[JustPlay4]

The infected

That kinda a dumb comment just because you need windows doesn't mean it ms platform, that like saying if I buy a game from steam if a valve game

[Prime157]

The_infected was trying to make you look like a Sony fanboy like most xbox fanboys do. The die-hard xbox fanboys don't understand that pc gamers are the most common, and it is deeper than just "ms made Windows."

[Play2Win]

Your comparison with shi* is poor and immature. And it is not the same. What I said is the truth. And titanfall in 720p would be really sad to be honest. You will hear a lot more laugh when it is confirmed running in 720p on bone. Not from me because I will be playing in 4k but by sony fans that also play in much higher resolutions than you.

[SmielmaN]

Infamous looks craaaaaaazy!!!! So pumped! Platinum trophies in 1 and 2 for this guy :)

[Ko_Uraki]

The word "close", doesn't mean nothing. Even PS3 and XBOX360 Ghosts versions are "close" to the next gen versions. This is a crossgen title too.

[Charybdis]

I assume CBOAT is the guy who got one of his (valve) insiders fired (?), did he also issue an apologise of some sort to his insider?

[Mikey94]

Are they still on this seriously. Lol NeoGafers just never let up. If Respawn already said the Alpha was Reduced for smaller download size i would assume it will look 2x better then the 360 version.

These so called insiders are a joke. No one has ever seen or even know who was making this game for 360, but the second Respawn announces who making it all of a sudden these so called insiders start talking comparison between 360 and X1 versions. Lol.

Reasons to never believe these guys is cause they pull most of these rumors out of their ass, never any proof and the fact Respawn already turned all this down and they saying Respawn is wrong lol. Ill listen to the Developers on this one.

And for people that are saying this doesn't look impressive graphically how would you know you haven't seen the final build. Obviously people are judging the game by the Alpha build.

[GW212]

Even if it improves materially from the alpha build, it still won't be very impressive graphically. Sorry.

[Ron_Danger]

Or they're judging the graphics based on the engine used for the game.

[Eonjay]

Exactly, Look at UE3 vs UE4. Every engine has its limits. If you run Doom on its original engine on the Xbox One, its not gonna suddenly look like Crysis.

[curtis92]

This 'must-have' xb1 game... also on PC, also on 360 (and apparently very similar)... way to make XB1 a must-have.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

a must have MS game... they win regardless of which version you buy.

[Master-H]

Say that to my pirated version of Windows 7..

[badz149]

[OC_MurphysLaw]

@badz149... bubbs for the laugh.

@Master-H... congrats on confirming that you are part of a much bigger issue in the industry.

[DigitalRaptor]

It's unlikely you need Windows to run this game. Ever heard of CrossOver?

But you're right, if this game does well, it's all good for MS.

[vazurahan]

Those guys at BluePoint are geniuses on porting.

[Mikey94]

There used to Making games look better now they have to make one uglier lets see what happens. But I expect the 360 version to be rough. Zero talk about it zero gameplay footage.

[vazurahan]

They made good Vita downports.

[Fishy Fingers]

First site to knock out an Alpha Vs Beta comparison is in for some hits.

[Festano]

This rumor convince me more and more to get the PC version.

[Ko_Uraki]

It will be the same of the One version but with a better resolution.

[Festano]

I do not think, because they speak the xbox360 version is closer to that of the xbox one. Surely the PC version in addition to the higher resolution, there will be many more effects.

[Eonjay]

This is correct. The graphics are held back by the engine, not the hardware. Like I said above, running the original Doom on the Xbox One or Titan card wont transform it into Crysis graphics.

[JohnnyTower]

I would almost Always go pc if your rig can handle it. It's like comparing the book to the movie, you already know which one is gonna be better...

[Seafort]

We'll find out if it's the same in February for the beta test.

Will be interesting to compare PC and Xbone versions of the game.

[Majin-vegeta]

March 11,2014 Will be one hella of a day.The truth will finally be out.

http://youtu.be/HRNnrm-fs_U

[strigoi814]

interesting....i guess xbox360 should stay more longer

[quaneylfc]

a measurement of the shits i could give: enough to comment a pointless comment on this thread and not even read the article

[odderz]

Yay, controversy!

Not sure how I feel, but, that's one more reason to not rush to buy an XB1, I guess.

[MasterCornholio]

Let's just wait until the game releases before jumping onto conclusions.

[4logpc]

I just don't understand why Respawn would lie. This isn't like Colonial Marines or any other disaster. They have nothing to hide and no reason to lie. The hype for this game is already very high.

I'm gonna go with Respawn on this one.

Edit: Respawn should just release a side by side image of an alpha titan and a final code titan to shut this guy up.

[imt558]

Disaster like Alien can happen again.

Well, if Respawn release side by side pictures, watch for PC version. @ E3 and Gamescom game was running on PC. Maybe Respawn will show PC image instead Xbone version.

[feraldrgn]

"Also, Titanfall 360 looks good enough to be close to Xbox One's version."

Is that a nicer way of saying the Xbox One version looks close to the 360 version?

[jmac53]

I knew the 360 version was going to be close to the One version especially since Bluepoint is in charge of the port. I got a bunch of disagrees the last time I posted about this so bring them on fanboys!

[cruzngta]

Would be funny if the 360 had the better textures and more consistent framerate!!! It shouldn't - propably 600p on 360 720p upscaled to 1080p on XB1. This should be interesting - can't wait! Dat 720P baby!!!

[Duke19]

Its probably a bit of column A and a bit of column B. wouldn't be surprised if the Alpha textures were in the final build, just with more post-processing or lighting added, or something funky like that.

Also don't really care personally - looking forward to getting this on xbone

[Alexious]

Yeah, it's likely that the truth is a bit on both sides.

[Festano]

Hope it's true what they say.

[iceman06]

This is exactly my thinking as well. The textures will probably not improve, but they will add some post-processing tricks to make them shine a bit more. Thus allowing the same textures to be used cross platform. While, at the same time, hiding any flaws that might be perceived in the "upgraded" version.

[drsfinest72]

So an insider confirms alpha textures are final which is then confirmed by another insider, sounds like rumors to me

[Codey47]

So the alpha has texture issues or are the alpha's alpha textures in question?

[Alexious]

The matter is that alpha had low res textures and Respawn said they weren't final, but leaks are saying they are, for Xbox One at least.

[The_devils_chum]

Not to rain on thuway or cboat's parade but i said this the other day when the beta was announced for pc and xb1. I was saying there were 2 reasons why xbox 360 didnt get the beta so far. 1st is they think it will sell more xb1's and 2nd is there will both be in 720p, and thats microsofts vision of next gen.

[Alexious]

I wouldn't say that is Microsoft's vision of next gen, clearly they are not dumb and they know that 1080P would be better. It's just that they made poor choices with the hardware and as such, games are struggling to go past 720P.

[hello12]

Has anyone ever considered this THUWAY guy is CBOAT,

[Alexious]

Uhm...I don't think so, but interesting theory!

[hello12]

Something is clearly wrong if the x box 360 version looks like the xb1 version. I seriously doubt it. If it is- most be a driver issue on the xb1, i guess the tools are just not there yet for performance.

The x box 360 graphic card is ancient is been the same since 2007 and the 360 has only has 524mb of memory, to work with

The xb1 graphic card is only about year old at most and the ram available for games is 5 to 6 gigs, plus ESRAM.

This rumor is false if you just look at the specs for both machines. XB1 is lights years ahead of the x box 360 when it comes to specs.

[KingDadXVI]

You are quite correct. The Xbox 360 GPU was capable of 77 GFlops while the Xbox One is at 1.33 TFlops or 1033 GFlops which is 13.4 time more floating point calculations on the Xbox One per second. The Xbox One memory also has 7.5 times the bandwidth of the Xbox 360.

So if there is any limitation to the Xbox One version it is due to the SDK and drivers which are being updated.

Now if someone wants to take Thuway's rumor over the developers statement then that is up to each person. However, even with a currently gimped SDK and/or drivers their is no reason that the Xbox One can't put out the textures that the developer has claimed. You also have to take Thuway's statements with a grain of salt. Many of his statements have been clearly incorrect. Remember he does not work for any of the companies involved (his information comes via unknown sources who may very well have their own agendas i.e. trying to spoil the launch of a game not on the PS4) and is a self professed diehard Sony fan.

This is a new development company that has a lot to prove and their first blockbuster game could make or break the company. It would not be in their best interest to lie about a fact that will most certainly be measured the first day this game is out in its final version.

Prepare for TitanFall people. It is coming whether you like it or not.

[jackanderson1985]

Has anyone considered maybe these "leaks" are initiated by MS to find the holes and plug them? Also who cares if they're the same textures the game looked good from the leaked videos but if graphics are all you are about then I'm sure the PC version is waiting you. Even if Respawn release a poor quality version modders will have it high quality in a month

[corvusmd]

So....despite the ACTUAL company officially saying this isn't true, someone that loses nothing by spreading a rumor is confirmed by another person that ALSO has no downfall from spreading a rumor...and we are supposed to believe them instead because "they heard" something. The game isn't even gold yet, in Alpha and Beta testing this isn't uncommon. For an Alpha or Beta it looks pretty damn good. This smells like fanboy damage control to me....

So...for a game that "no one cares about" or "that looks horrible" ...there sure is a lot of aggressive hate on this page. Hmm I guess everyone that likes that game and has played it and loved it was wrong....because surely this isn't just insecure ranting. That sucks I was really looking forward to this game. I was REALLY disappointed with Infamous 2 after playing Infamous...so I have no desire to play the next infamous (based on actual past experience)...maybe I should go to an Infamous page and let everyone know that it looks horrible and that I'm glad that it's not coming to XB1...that won't look jealous or pathetic at all...it'll just let everyone who likes that game know they are having fun "wrong" :/ The intelligence and maturity level around here is horrible, like arguing with liberals....medicine for the dead. When will kids realize that spreading this kind of hate only rings true with those that ALSO already hate it..to everyone else with an open mind and/or a different opinion it just looks immature and insecure. JUST PLAY GAMES, stop killing the industry you claim to love, and just go have fun again.

[Dewitt]

From Stomp at NeoGAF:

"Thuway and famousmortimer have never been verified at all, and in fact they are both abundantly clear that they are NOT industry insiders. They both give their real names and professions publicly. They make it clear that in both their cases, they talk to people in the industry. In FM's case, I think it's not so much that he did talk to people in the industry, but rather his success with the PS4NoDRM thing got him connections to talk to some people in the industry. So when you hear something from either of these people, you know "This is something from people who appear to be connected, but don't have any first hand information because they're not in the industry. So are they using discretion in terms of choosing their sources or the certainly or degree to which they present the claims they heard?"

They have sources, they are not insiders so their credibility is as good as if any of us said it. Ignore this XB1 hater, respawn themselves denied it, all I am worried about.

[Kennytaur]

Respawn has no motive for lying, it's not like people can't tell if the textures change or not.

[DevilishSix]

You are naive aren't you. did the Aliens Colonial Marines disaster not teach us anything? Developers have a game to sell and they will say whatever is in their best interest to sell said title.

[Kennytaur]

If making reasonably logical assumptions make me naive, then yes, sure. Guilty as charged... Do I really have to explain the difference between these two for you?

Respawn has their name on the line here, they can't blame it on outsourcing the Xbox One version and they can't fall back and play the "but, we made Borderlands"-card either, as they no longer have anything to do with CoD. They need Titanfall to be great and false statements will backfire like crazy in this day and age.

[UKRsoldier]

Devilish -

So, you believe that a developer would choose to commit figurative suicide by straight up lying about the textures in their own game in order to sell a few more copies NOW, but then face public uproar when the game came out and have their reputation destroyed forever?

Do you people ever think things through?

[DevilishSix]

Well Kenny I am just saying in this industry trust is getting harder to come by. Respawn maybe an ok group of guys, but when it comes to anything EA published, I am a skeptic all the way.

For example DICE is a pretty well liked and trusted group of developers, yet look at the mess EA put them in. If your going to grant trust before its earned at least verify.

[RealtorMDandDC]

Respawn has many $$$$$$$ reasons to thwart the facts. It's in Respawn's best interest to promote and Hype the game they are developing.

Look at EA /DICE and Battlefield. So much hype and it has been one helluva ride with nothing but negative buzz about the game.

I wanted to buy Battlefield, but after reading everything about every version of the game, I've taken it of my list.

The last Aliens game, the developers hyped it and it happen to the the worst thing since Superman for N64..

It's a developer best interest to provide the best spin to ensure their product sells the best.

[DevilishSix]

This does hurt the case to buy a X1 to play Titanfall, if the 360 version is close then why shell out $500 in cheddar. If it's not going to just be on X1 then the X1 version needs to stand out and say you need to play me on the X1 instead of the 360. So is the X1 version saying that? You guys tell me.

I guess the most disappointing thing about this game is that its not X1 exclusive. It's the biggest game all year on the X1 platform (I predict Halo 5 does not come out this year) but it can be played on two other platforms. That is what really is disappointing.

[UKRsoldier]

Why shell out 500? Probably because the Xbox One has more than just Titanfall on it? Dead Rising 3, Forza 5, and Ryse are not available on any other platform? Just a thought...

[Hakoom]

should of been on the ps4 with 1080p 60fps
what a waste to damage an excellent game like this ~_~

[Hercules189]

It depends, does the PS community behave like 12 year olds like they do on this site. If so, then it wouldnt be worth it.

[aondaatje]

N4G is Latin for Pony reach arounds. Ponys believe whatever Sony and other Ponys tell them. Better get used to it

[Kennytaur]

PC version says hi, and brought some extra bells and whistles.

[aondaatje]

I don't recall and 60fps games on ps4. There has been a bunch of stuttery 40-60 fps games but that's about it

[CernaML]

Either way, it would look and perform better than it would on the X1. Or do you honestly believe Microsoft is holding back the X1's "hidden" power?

[reaperofsouls]

there obviously not that performance difference between the 360 and the bone

[Tedakin]

Respawn denied the textures thing twice after Thuway and CBOAT posted. This is from 2 days ago.

[CrossingEden]

https://www.googledrive.com... Graphically this game looks fantanstic. I think it's time we use WAY more direct feed footage instead of youtube quality footage.

[MultiConsoleGamer]

Nope.

[Tedakin]

Why would Respawn lie about this? They could have just not mentioned the textures in the Alpha and people would have passed right over it. They told Alpha testers BEFORE they played the textures were only 25%, not when they started asking about it. It was apparently in the NDA they signed. If the game comes out and the textures are identical to the Alpha, then Respawn just pulled a huge Obama and lied repeatedly right to everyone's faces. And as they said, how would that benefit anyone? ;)

[Father__Merrin]

all them years they used to downgrade P.S.3 saying blah blah looks like P.S.2 graphics

now look at them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm saying it first, it's 360 graphics HA HA HA

game should be good but I see no reason to shell out £429 just to play exactly the same game as 360 version

imo halo 5 and destiny will blow titanfall into orbit,

[mmj]

Am I the only one that thinks this is probably a ruse? create a **** storm about textures to take the attention away from the fact that the game is only 720P... that way on release day everyone is thinking "rejoice! the textures aren't crap afterall!" instead of "720P wtf?"

[aondaatje]

Other sources say its not. Go figure. U will excuse me if i don't believe the word of a pony giving another pony a reach around.

[The_devils_chum]

Dah!! that's why they haven't announced a demo for the xbox 360, because they know the visuals and resoultion would be very similar. Soon I expect CBOAT saying that devs are tired of being dragged through the mud by microsoft, crytek,ubi-soft, and now respawn.

[Tedakin]

Respawn got slightly sassy about this issue. Someone actually tweeted them the other day "A person with inside knowledge claims the textures in the alpha are final." And Respawn replied, "We have inside knowledge too. ;)"

I'm going to believe Respawn over a rumor for now.

[djtek184]

The power of the cloud is useless.

[Sh0ckWav3]

i just reserve it for 360...d;)

[XiSasukeUchiha]

Cool i guess

[Max-Zorin]

Wow. They say it isn't true but everyone is still putting faith in what someone said on another site. I hate my generation.

[FlyingFoxy]

Cool, hopefully the L4D3 (Source engine 2) leak was genuine, cant wait for that on PC.

[beatled]

good thing i'll be playing it in 1600p

a full gen beyond anything ps4 or xbox1 will EVER have

pc kills ps4/x1

[iliimaster]

well first of all lets get this straight the xbox one doesnt have voice messages... idk about u guys but i like to talk smack or respond from someone talking smack after i whoop on em or win the match? thats only possible on the 360 and now ps4! until that feature is there the xb1 is a downgrade in live services according to my preference

[MCTJim]

Once again, the devs clarify and these "insiders" say its false or to the contrary. I think the devs are more believable than these so called insiders with a NeoGaf mod account named CBOAT..yes I believe that the CBOAT account on NeoGaf is a mod account, which is used to spread FUD. I've been reading the threads on Gaf and he seems to be getting more and more...human speak....not cryptic as usual.

[Clarence]

The game looks fun, but it's definitely does not look like next gen graphics.

[RealtorMDandDC]

I have to agree with you there.

[JohnS1313]

The 360 version looks almost like the Xbox One version? Yikes. So I guess the Xbox One just isn't very powerful. You'd think the 360 couldn't even be close.

[DJ]

No surprise, they need to ship the game soon. The quake 2 engine can only be pushed so far, so both versions are going to look pretty similar.

[Qwagy UK]

Requirements for this game are low, nice to hear even the xboxone is able to run this @ 720p.

[UncleGermrod]

seriously, these sad "insiders" need to get real. what exactly is it that they do for us? sometimes they are right, sometimes they are wrong, and all the time it doesnt matter.

This game is from a start up studio, headed by the man who defined 7th generation multiplayer. I for one have no reason to feel that zampela would lie like that. He has even been outspoken about his inability to bring his franchise to playstation owners...he is deff not the one to just say what they tell him to.

I get why leaks are exciting, and sometimes these guys are right (who knows, maybe respawn is lying), but seriously...these guys have a very sad purpose in the community.

X1 is weaker than ps4, and X1 is far from perfect, but i am sick of people trying to claim that it is incapable of making pretty games. Just stop it. I cannot wait till this comes out and these dopes are wrong. There is no reason for the gaming community to ever be taken seriously if this is all we have to contribute to it. We are more than some little sub-culture that argues over hardware disparity all day long. how bout we just talk about the game...do you think it looks fun?, are you excited?, are you not? why?....nope, lets have two trouble making babies ruin any chance of a good conversation for us all.

I for one work hard to enjoy my games, and i payed hard earned money for my ps4/x1. I like to play all different types of games, and titanfall sure seems amazing. I would prefer to talk about things like features such as maps, guns, abilities etc. over things like "merp, textures wont be good, derp schnerp".

Take a f***ing hike Rasheed!!!!!

[IRetrouk]

I agree with the point you make, sometimes you can get a good conversation going without all the willy waving, although titanfall does nothing for me I can understand why people are looking forward to it, im sure it will be a very enjoyable game for those that buy it, no matter what platform its on, I may give it a try when I get a xbox one, but at the min quantum break is what im looking forward to the most from xbox, I loved alan wake and am looking forward to what else remedy can come up with.

[MajorGecko]

going to get this on 360 because battlefield bores me i need something fresh and hopefully destiny will also be amazing

[RealtorMDandDC]

When I watch the video it so reminds me of COD with Mechs. Now that could be a great thing but again, I have not seen anything ground breaking or earth shattering.

It's going to be interesting when Titian Fall comes out. I'm curious about resolution and FPS.

Not much of a fan of online only shooters. I want a story then the option to get online for multi-player.

Side note: If they are gigantic powerful Mechs, why is there no environmental destruction?

If I'm playing with uber powerful Mechs, I want to blow everything up or as much as possible. I've yet to see a building collapse or a car explode?

I think Titian Fall will showcase the short comings of the Xbox One especially since there is a PC version coming out also. I am not a PC gamer they only thing I use my PC for is work and trolling the internet.

Maybe we will see environmental destruction in Titian Fall 2 for PS4?

[UncleGermrod]

"I am not a PC gamer they only thing I use my PC for is work and trolling the internet"

"Maybe we will see environmental destruction in Titian Fall 2 for PS4?"

-and trolling you sure are

[RealtorMDandDC]

@UncleGermrod...I was being FACETIOUS if you even know what that means? If you don't know what it means try looking it up on your Google Machine....

I don't troll that's why I have 5 bubbles and you have 2.

....please don't fool yourself. If the game is close to successful on the Xbox One there's a good chance EA will bring it to PS4 unless Microsoft purchase's the rights of the game. Mass Effects rings a bell?

It was EA's decision base on projected sales figure for the Xbox One that help with the exclusivity plus probably a bucket load of cash from MS. But EA was the main principle to make that call. According to the links below. If future sales forecast was a reason to make Titian Fall exclusive for Xbox One. And EA is currently looking at sales now and see that there forecast was a little off. As a business I really think they will reconsider the position of a next Titian Fall if there is one.

Couple of links to to defend my so call trolling:

Link 1: http://www.gamerevolution.c...

"Titanfall's console exclusivity apparently had nothing to do with Xbox One's cloud features, but rather console sales forecasts."

Link 2: http://www.gamezone.com/new...

"If you ask Respawn or Microsoft, they'll say it's because of the Xbox One's cloud servers. You may even remember, back in August, designer Fairfax ‘Mackey’ McCandlish calling Microsoft the "Apple of videogames" when it comes to multiplayer and communal gaming -- something Titanfall emphasizes (there's no singleplayer campaign). McCandlish at the time explained the exclusivity was based on Respawn being a small team and having to pick a single platform. "Xbox made the most sense," he said.

Microsoft and Xbox may have made the most sense, but it doesn't look like it was a decision based on console power, community, or cloud servers.

"I think you should assume that we made that
decision when it was back a few years ago when we decided to go exclusive," explained EA's Chief Financial Officer Blake Jorgensen when asked if the deal with Microsoft for Titanfall's exclusivity would offset potential sales the game could have had if released on PlayStation."

Link 3: http://www.reddit.com/r/Gam...

I've provided quotes from the links so If you're too lazy to click you do not have to.

With that being said, I will not be rushing out to purchase an Xbox One because of a COD clone with Mechs and ABSOLUTE NO environmental destruction and no single player campaign.

Side note: I see any people talk about graphic does not matter, but that's such a load of you know what. Most people purchase a next gen system for the graphical upgrades in future games.

If graphics did not matter, N4G would have an Atari page and Colecovision page and we would be sitting her talking about PONG.

Graphics and resolution does matter that's why buzz words like "Retina Display" has helped sell millions of iThings.

Blu-rays...people purchase blurays because they have an HD TV and want to appreciate the resolution a Blu-ray experience provides.

People pay the extra for Imax because of the visual and audio experience.

[Grimhammer00]

I will agree - xbone footage (or PC pretending) shows no destructibility. That's staggeringly odd in a game with walking tanks. You can get away with it in cod....just a little effects, smoke/dust is needed.

But mechs would leave crators, collapsed buildings and shatter ear drums! Imagine standing a foot away from a tank cannon firing! Yet audio seems very cod - loose and functional. But not bf4 quality.

The idea of titanfall is sexy! The current implementation weeks from launch is meh.

[Azzanation]

Titanfall is clearly a game for fun, can you fanboys put all these textures and Resolution and Frame Rates to rest. The game is not designed to be eye candy.

Gameplay > Graphics

Look at Killzone SF, great eye candy but for what?

Id rather them focus on the gameplay any day of the week.

[lesrima88]

shows that xbone is still stuck in last ten

[sebzhd]

What a big big Quenelle de 500$

[OwnageDC650]

The game looks like fun and I'm hearing good things about it. I have my doubts about it running at 1080p and I don't think the textures will be a lot better than the alpha version but there's only one way to find out for sure. March 11th can't come soon enough.

[DOOMZ]

I seriously doubt it folks!

[gigoran]

The xbone get funnier every day

[skoorydook]

200 plus comments, yeah wonder why sites put these articles up, little hint if nobody wants them then stop replying to them.

[lunatic0001]

I swear what is wrong with this generation of gamers....when did resolution or graphics ever make a game...graphics and resolution don't matter much when u are defending a damn console...if u care about graphics and resolution soooooo damn much....u are defending the wrong platform and need to get urself a PC....I can't wait for titanfall should be good and infamous 10 days later....march can't come soon enough
