Disable the reconstruction resolution and change the AA.
Helix mod helps to disable motion blur.
No. It's full of unexplained story beats and cliffhangers like alan wake was. What story there is is "eh" by the end, and the gameplay itself is nothing to write home about it. I was bored before it ended, and annoyed that I wasted time on it.
But hey, you're in a QB thread, so there's a probably some dissenting opinion here
Thanks, I appreciate the insight

This is great news. This game already looked so amazing. Can't wait to see in 4K.

Never played this. Likely will now. You can probably find discs for very cheap.

Hi I'm some dissenting opinion, pleased to meet you.

Btw, what about videos? 4K maybe? (And the full size is 250GB )

But then they should have said high resolution like they did for Recore DE.

It won't be 4K lol) They really should stop such marketing bullshit
Gtx 1060 with 6Tflops can only do 1080p/30fps in this game

Probably not 4k (maybe through checkerboard?) wouldnt be shocked if we got 1440 though
I have finished both Alan Wake and QB, and I like QB much more than AW.
It has more likable characters and much better and more varied combat. Now, mind you, the combat system isn't a revelation or anything, but it is decent.
The game also does not end on a cliffhanger as such. It wraps up all current events, with a hint that
things might not be okay in the long

1060 is not 6Tflops and generally NV cards do worse in this game than AMD cards, but you're right otherwise..... XBONEX is not going to do anything close to native 4k on this title....

Don't listen to that guy, that's complete nonsense.
As far as the story goes, if you make sure to grab all the collectible, read the emails, listen to the voice messages etc. then it expands upon the story a great deal and it adds a huge amount of backstory and motivation for the characters you see during the TV segments.
It's a very linear game so those items aren't particularly difficult to find and it's definitely worth it.
As far as the gameplay goes, don't play it like a cover shooter and experiment with ways to combine your time powers. Stay on the move as much as possible and link your powers together and it's a lot of fun.
Except for the final battle which is just crap.
You should definitely play it though.
Well, I enjoyed this game very much! Obviously not the absolute sole reason, but this made the decision very easy to make.

Probably one of the more underrated games I played last year. Wish we'd see a sequel someday but that has a zero percent chance of happening

The game was fun, the story was Ok, but I also skipped all the "TV show" bits. Very pretty with some weird visual artifacts here and there.

I agree. I have a rig with 2xTitan XP overclocked and it struggles, but boy does it look really good. I have pushed it to go 60fps and it can hit it sometimes, but drops a lot. I have not tried locking it to 30fps though. Wonder if that is what they will do is 4k/30fps, but the way that game was made perhaps that is not possible. Regardless, glad that it is getting some love...very under-rated game.

I'm really happy it is happening, because it sure seemed it wasn't. I mean MS didn't spoke about QB at all early this year when they reflected back on last year....not good. And sadly no DLC was ever announced. Great news. Game should look fantastic on One X. It already looks great on Xbox One, but blurry though and you just see the Xbox One hardware isn't doing that game justice.
Now for that Sunset Overdrive and Ryse patch.........
if only.

While I was overall a bit meh by the end of the game, I'll happily go back to see what it looks like downsampled.
I've played through all Alan Wakes and played through Quantum Break multiple times - QB is by far better then Alan Wake. Gameplay, story, dialog. Much more interesting.
Not a fan of the integrated TV show aspect. That is where the game hurts the most.

It's probably easier to just use the 4.5x flops increase between XBO and XBX to see where they may land with actual rendering resolution.
If the game was 720p with 4x MSAA on XBO then the closest "normal" res with a factor 4.5x pixels would be 2560x1440. 3200x1800 is a bit too much I think but they can opt for something in-between, something like 3000x1688 or something. My money is on 1440p with 4x MSAA reconstructed to 4K though.

QB is a bit of a mess IQ wise. If they could hit 1440p natively with 4x MSAA that would probably look as good/better if they just left it at that res and upscaled to 4k. Or did 2xMSAA at 1800p or something. In terms of what would be easiest for implementation they'll probably go with the path of least resistance which would be as you suggest, just 1440p instead of 720p while leaving everything else the same.
The artifacts acts arent down to the base resolution, they are down to this temporal method used. Which spans 4x the number of frames of a checkboard reconstruction.
Also, 720p is approx 66% of 1080p, rather than it being a straight half or quarter.
Forgive me if Ive misunderstood your post.

Awesome , one of my fav games this gen and personally one of the best looking .
I only wish this update included some kind of combat wave based arenas to flesh out the content .

It was one of the few/only games I ever said to myself, damn I wish the game had more combat set pieces.
I enjoyed the gameplay a ton, even if the story/characters didn't really resonate with me like every other Remedy project. It'll be nice to replay this with some added visual/performance bonuses.

Sorry, I wasnt very clear,I was referring to the horizontal/vertical resolution, meaning it would be unsuitable to use to checkerboard to 1080p.
