Conan Exiles Runs at 1440p on XB1X, 1080p on PS4Pro; Funcom Didn't Have Time To Get The Most of XB1X

Conan Exiles will run at 1440p on Xbox One X, unlike the previously mentioned 4K resolution, and 1080p on PlayStation 4 Pro. Funcom stated that they didn't have time to get the most out of the Xbox One X's hardware.

They also said they haven't looked yet at the possibility of a Nintendo Switch port.

[codelyoko]

Lame. I guess I'll buy it on PC then.

[KaiPow]

There's always the possibility of seeing a resolution bump in post launch patches.

[Alexious]

Doubt it from what they've said here

[dirkdady]

How come they don't report on the base Xbox one's resolution any more like the X is all there is.. I mean the base is what the vast majority of Xbox owners own as well as the base PS4 and what attributes for a decent chunk of sales...

[XxINFERNUSxX]

Exactly if you want the ultimate experience get it on PC. More settings. more options, just plain better and no dynamic res crap. 4k all the way or 1440p.

[_LarZen_]

Good luck running that unoptimized game in 4K on PC :D

[mcstorm]

I love comments like this. How many people own a pc capable of doing this? Tbh how many people own a 4k TV/monitor

[Ikenda]

You wanted the best performance and you waited to see what the res would be on the consoles? That's dum bro or your just a troll. Anyway hurry up cause once the game is off early access it will be more expensive and then you'll be thinking "damn, I'm dum or just a troll".....

[ccgr]

But it's been in early access for about a year....

[Alexious]

True.

[timotim]

Exactly! Ive had it for Game Preview for a while and enjoy the game, but to say you didn't have enough time seems off. Are we sure they (the devs) said this or was that just added for click bait effect?

[Chris_Wray]

It is somewhat strange that they haven't 'had the time' to get the most out of even one platform. Particularly due to how long the game's been out in EA and the work they've been able to do on it.

[quent]

You should headline the stable framerates instead, those resolutions are acceptable, frame stutter/pacing/tearing is not

[AmstradAmiga]

Let's not get hung up on pixel counts again, let's see how it plays.

[bluefox755]

Kind of a shite game, so you should expect shite optimization across the board.

[timotim]

Actually the game is pretty fun to me...

[Cybermario]

oh damn

[generic-user-name]

Probably not worth the effort. How many X1X's are in the wild? Not that many, hell there isn't even that many 4k TVs in people's homes yet.

[Prince_TFK]

The devs can do whatever they see fit.

[Lennoxb63]

Well it didn't stop the major devs from doing it. Plus 1080p tvs also benefit from the X1X.

[generic-user-name]

That's true, but these guys probably don't have the same resources as the major guys.

[Muigi]

You can get a 4ktv for $300 nowadays granted I wouldn’t recommend them, its alot more mainstream than just two years ago.

[generic-user-name]

Things are improving for sure, but most people are still on 1080 displays.

[Pantz]

Not interested due to censorship of this game on consoles.

[Ricegum]

I know. Also, yet another game on Xbox One X that isn't 4k. Rather disappointing.

[Kiwi66]

Yet they still the highest out of all the console versions so there's that, still don't get how they say they had no time to do better

[Xb1ps4]

Yea.. I’m sure you’re very disappointed 😒

[jokerisalive]

dude wtf are you talking about???? its ALSO ANOTHER 1080P game on the PRO.....NO DIFFERENT from the base PS4. This is a shitty port from a lazy dev team. Pro should be 1440P minimum while the X can propably hit 1800P or better.

[coolbeans]

"Also, yet another game on Xbox One X that isn't 4k."

Yeah, the phrasing of that doesn't go unnoticed. Can we please stop pretending ALL XOneX-enhanced games we're going to hit this pipedream of "4K/60FPS" or "4K native all the time" that was never uttered by their marketing? These two facts can coincide:
1.) Not all X-enhanced games will run at 4K native (or have the option)...
2.) ...but the majority of current x-enhanced games can run at native 4K, and the majority of upcoming ones more than likely will also.

[TheCommentator]

Pro = optimized at 1080p
1X = 1440p without getting the most from the hardware

You're so right though, 1X is clearly the disappointment with regards to power. /s

[BLAKHOODe]

Actually, the nudity is suppose to be patched in on consoles when it officially releases next month.

[Pantz]

“Since launch we’ve been getting a lot of questions from console players with regards to nudity. When we first launched in Xbox Game Preview the idea was to release a nudity patch that players in certain territories could download for free to unlock the full nudity option. Other players would be limited to partial nudity. Said nudity patch has been unavailable since launch due to a last-minute issue with the Xbox Store. All territories have therefore been limited to partial nudity. Microsoft was investigating a solution to the issue and have come up with something that will allow us to roll out full nudity on consoles where the game’s rating allows for it. Full nudity will be made available on consoles on launch day, May 8th. We’ll have more information on how players will be able to access the full nudity option on launch day.”

Cool ok now I'll have to go pre-order it.

[BadElf]

Game isnt letting be place Stone foundations in areas. Flat areas with nothing around.

[cliveo32]

1.8 tf og ps4 ......4.2 tf ps4 pro what are these dev doing unless that pushed it to ultra setting maybe if not lazy dev bull shit ..

[Shineon]

Its ps4pro fault nor the devs,like how are they suppose to work with so little ram,what they look like santa monica or guerilla games or something

[DivineAssault]

What a shame.. Ill be playing GoW anyway so it doesnt matter

[LoveSpuds]

Any interest I had in this game evaporated a long time ago, personally, I think early access type development is a double edged sword.

While I might well have been interested in this title if it had seen a traditional development and release, all of the hype and excitement simply evaporated over the last year or two. Broadly speaking, games simply cannot maintain a buzz over these lengths of time, no matter how good they might be.

[Aenea]

"Funcom stated that they didn't have time to get the most out of the Xbox One X's hardware."

Since it's only running at 1080p on the PS4 Pro with only higher settings than base PS4 I'm now assuming they just didn't have time to optimise for either...

[gangsta_red]

I guess the Xbox X is just easier to port to even when devs dont have the time.

[Aenea]

They already have a PS4 version, there's nothing to port, your comment makes no sense whatsoever...

[Internal]

Guess I won't have time to buy and play your game.

[Tsar4ever01]

I've been looking at game footage of this game foe some time now. THIS GAME DOESN'T LOOK NOR FEEL VERY HYBORIAN AGE TO ME AT ALL!! I still rather play SKYRIM than waste my time and attention on this bland looking game.

[GamerzElite]

This is dead game, http://steamcharts.com/app/...

[Artemidorus]

Thought the pro is a 4K HDR machine? I wouldn't be happy with 1080p

[CarolRGwinn]

I really enjoy this. Thanks for sharing this.
