Great stuff.Indeed after more than 10 hours on the PS4 version I am about to see a slowdown.

Should't the ps4 version look better? It seems like the extra power is wasted.
Parity.

Is this the very first DX12 Xbox One game to hit the market, except Fable Legends beta? Wondering if it's got something to do with the good performance. I know that's more bound to give Xbox One a CPU advantage rather than a GPU one, but maybe in an open world context like this, it helps.
Perhaps, but I wouldn't put too much credit into it. Software changes won't close the gap when the other console has better hardware.

Built for parity?

That forced parity...
500TF stronger GPU just for a little better performance? C´mon Ubisoft!

Yeah right.

Solid performance all-around. Nice job! (No I'm not sarcastic)
Not entirely. Some scenes show subtle differences. Like this one, the texture on the stand is sharper on the PS4 than on the XB1 for example.

If both games were forced 900p for parity I'd understand complaints. Instead, both are great performers and 1080p. Awesome for everyone!
Edit: The chromatic aberration in the game destroys a really clean image so I suggest you turn it off no matter what version you play. It's sooooo much better.

probably earlier DLCs too

Huh ps4 is significantly more powerful, both being 1080p just proves ubi soft is serious about parity, since all there others games are the same 900p resolution. And almost every game that's graphically taxing has a higher resolution on ps4.
They could use the approximate 40 % of more gpu resources for some extra feature on ps4. Where on xbone is rather impressive such result at 1080p , on ps4 2 fps of advantage in some scene seems really the minimun expected.

500tf stronger? Surely you must be joking.

Exactly. Well put.
It's a useless joke. Ps4 has showed more than a time on multiplat significantly more power.
So should the ps4 version be higher than 1080p? Should the x1 version be 900p even though it can hit 1080? Should the ps4 version look miles better with the same framerate? Should it be 60 frames? Because I hear that the ps4 version does in fact look better in places.

It's not like they can increase the resolution here.
Where? The article talk of some casual texture glitch on xbone.
People really need to understand that this is an MMO. MMO workloads vary, especially in end game, significantly.
There is possibility that final game has much more player vs player vs pve interactions that require more GPU time and in that case Xbone version will drop heavily when PS4 wont at all.
Parity is a stupid term for games with varied, unpredictable workloads.

Fucking hell man shoutouts to Massive for getting to 1080p on Xbone. That's a hell of an accomplishment.
Neogaf
But you know what....this title will prove that devs can do no right. If a game pushes graphics they'll get punished for shitty performance.
Make a good looking game that performs wonderfully and they'll get punished because. ..omg the ps4 should be better.
Let's praise massive for making a game that performs rock solid.

Oh I agree. I own all three platforms and parity for PS4 makes me upset because I'll be playing on PS4 and I would like to see the extra power put to use.
And it further makes me upset because thing like Global Ilumination were torn out of the PC version because of consoles. The game still looks amazing on PC, but it would've been transcendent with GI.
Overall though, after playing both the PC and PS4 beta. (might try it on my One today just for the hell of it), it's a great looking game. So it's hard to be TOO upset. Mild salt.
I'd like to see the same dedication in the next AC on ps4. Different studio but if will be 900p on both, well.
It runs better and some PS fans think it looks much better, why bother trying....

Look the letters also. Xbone has a slightly blurrier image
I think they just get content first, no exclusive items.
Well at least the trailers make no mention of exclusive content other than the new content first.

It does indeed seem so. The metal wall thingy on which the weapons are placed in the background is slightly blurrier on the XB1 version as well.
So:
PS4 - Better performance, no tearing, slightly sharper image/textures.

i wish they measured input/lag delay. I feel like it's pretty bad in this one

It's mind boggling how some here think ps4 is soms supermachine which should give double the performance of Xbone. It's a goddamn laptop GPU. I own one to but am keeping my expectations realistic. It's scary to see most of GAF hold on to the myth the PS4 should somehow considerably beter.
Play on PC if you are expecting a performance an IQ leap. Or else just settle in with the console version and be happy with it instead of nitpicking a small fuckin texture somewhere in the game which seems different between de console version.

Game looks and runs great on PS4. I am glad the Xbone users will be getting the same experience - it's about god damn time! Good times for everyone!
Do You have any examples of this?
This screenshot looks like it using GI from the left light source:
Damn, i wish i had a beta.

Everyone misses things, it's only human. (God that sounds cheesy).
This makes the parity cries in this thread all the more funnier.

Seems to be a lesser implementation of AA or CA, I think. The second image in the gallery is the biggest tell-tale if you look at the tree on the right and the scaffolding across the roof - a lot of pixel break-up.

So the difference is pretty much negligible. Good for XBone owners. Also, the game looking this good and running at 1080p on XBone is one hell of an accomplishment. Good job.
