Made a comparison for Titanfall beta, not exactly the same frames but you can easily see the difference. First before/second after:

Thanks for these.

Made some gifs:

Here is my quick comparison video, 30 seconds of running around Angel City before the patch, and 30 seconds after the patch.

Very strange. What player and/or codec pack do you use? I recommend CCCP and the bundled MPC-HC.
Anyway, I've just captured some titanfall, but I'm really terrible. I'll try and do a more "scientific" comparison video

that worked! thanks!

 

[Blimblim]

that worked! thanks!

CCCP is great, just the minimum to get all codec types running with the best quality

Hey Albert! If you are still lurking, take note. THIS is site to go to to host any new vids you want to show.

I'm working on an upload service for the site so people can upload their own videos. It will be heavily moderated so people don't send crap, but it should allow for some nice stuff hopefully. We'll need to find some money for the hosting though, working on that too

That sounds great Blim and I hope it works out great for you guys! Still, it's quite annoying to hear "We're bringing SuperX MegaFantasicalJourney Alpha! Here's a trailer." And it's hosted on a craptastic site with Droid 1 level video quality. It's one of those things, if you want to showcase your game, show it in the best light. Put the lower quality bs on youtube the next day or something...

 

[Durante]

That's good.

I still wonder who ever thought it would be a good idea to add some sharpening to those sub-1080p jaggies when upscaling them.

 

[teh_rhn]

still looks like shit

Bless his little heart

 

[The Flash]

I can't really see a difference but I haven't trained my eyes to notice things like that. Glad it seems to be an improvement though.

 

[pixlexic]

Some games were adjust to use the old filter.

I wonder if they will get patches that adjust image quality for the new one?

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Got the update, thanks Live team

 

[Guymelef]

No mater what, Titanfall still looks like shit, even on PC.

 

[angelic]

Odd choice from MS side. It would have made more sense to enhance the filter, not remove it altogether.

That detail degradation in the KI shot is pretty profound.

There was no extra detail, you were seeing distortion by a filter.

 

[Mendax]

Here ya go!

that's just sad, really......

What's the deal with "Kodjima"? If it's a joke I don't get it.

This is hilarious btw.

MIsterx: Well seem like Kodjima has no other options and must support inferior Japan tech.

 

[Majanew]

MisterX has to be a joke character.

*Is he serious?

 

[digoutyoursoul]

MisterX has to be a joke character.

He wrote the screenplay for Police Academy: Mission to Moscow

 

[FairXchange]

I'd appreciate it if someone in the know would explain what the hell the scaler was attempting to do pre-patch. Anyone know? All it did was crush blacks and sharpen everything causing aliasing and other oddities. What were the benefits, or the original motivation for implementing such a scaler?

Transcribing russian written names into western script i think

No mater what, Titanfall still looks like shit, even in PC.

Sadly that's true but me and my bro will give it a go on PC.

 

[Dizzy]

Definitely looks better now without that extra sharpening.

because the games do not run at 1080p native but are "stretched" to fit that resolution it has a negative effect on graphical fidelity. The sharpening filter was trying to hide that but because it sharpened the image way too much it actually made image quality worse in another direction.

 

[Insane Metal]

That was a great update. Titanfall looks much better without that shitty sharpening filter.

 

[Caddle]

For me the black crushed was fixed a while ago check your TV settings

 

[Nintenchris_one]

Mine refuses to update. Restarted a million times

You talking about the crushed blacks if you chose full RGB, instead of limited?

Not in DR3.

No update here...

I still have the OLD OS: 6.2.10217.0 (xb_rel_launch.131205-2200)

Worked fine for me.

 

[ironcreed]

Titanfall still looks like stank on stank, with a dash of jank, jank, jank. Looks pretty damn fun, though.

 

[Always-honest]

Good news for xboxone owners.

 

[Gestault]

What's the deal with "Kodjima"? If it's a joke I don't get it.

(Protip: All indications from normal people are that it's a joke site, like many of the "Sony Defense Force" and "pro-Sony" Youtube personalities from last gen.)

 

[Caddle]

Yes the black crush in dr3 is gone will take pics

 

[BibiMaghoo]

Here ya go!

I feel dirty for clicking that after a 2 minute read. That is spectacular, the guy cannot even spell Kojima.

Mine refuses to update. Restarted a million times

I just turned it off by pressing the power button 5 secs, then I turned it on again, a green progress bar appeared for a few minutes and update done

 

[Nintenchris_one]

It's so frustrating, why can't we force an update.. Even Nintendo has that down

Bad example, this shows sharpening being a good thing.

Tried 3 times. Ugh

 

[Gestault]

Bad example, this shows sharpening being a good thing.

It's an accurate example, and I'd disagree that the "aggressively sharpened" apple gives a desirable result. You can see the exact sort of artifacts and appearance of aliasing that resulted from Microsoft's process.

 

[ymmv]

That's good.

I still wonder who ever thought it would be a good idea to add some sharpening to those sub-1080p jaggies when upscaling them.

They probably invited a group of twelve year olds to make that choice for them.

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

Those titanfall pics looks exactly the same to me. What is everyone seeing?
