Battlefield 1's dynamic resolution looks to be a bit broken

Hm...
Gameboy port confirmed?

It's neat seeing modern graphics rendered at such low resolution. It's like screenshots from an alternate dimension where computing power massively outpaced display technology.

I'm digging the 160x90 maintaining aspect ratio.

I noticed this happening to me when I go to the Xbox One dashboard and then back to the game, it gets all pixelated like that for a quick second, then back to normal, not really an issue as it doesn't happen to me during gameplay at all. But cool to know that it's the dynamic resolution trying to keep it all running smoothly.

This is fucking amazing hahahaha, I'm going to try and play at the lowest resolution possible on my rig when I can. Will post results.

In about 4-5 hours of gameplay this has happened once to me for a split second.

HA, and people will tell you this is the best looking game on the XB1....
Dynamic res is all about locking the framerate, didn't dice get the memo? Resolution drops of 160x90, means there's no minimum rez, who knows, it may even drop lower...all for that 60fps locked????......but Oh NO... it's barely even 50fps locked, what a game... long stretches of 29fps and below....Dice keeps on delivering.......

Is this part of a lot of issues this game has on consoles? Or does this have less than BF4?

I have no idea.
Here's a video confirmation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfOVnGLIvUI&t=5m15s
160x90 must be a bug. I'm sure It'll be patched soon.
Console CPU's must be the bottleneck in conquest mode with 64 players online.
If one adds zero, is there a change

that "give me 320x120 @240FPS" joke isnt funny anymore

Played for 5 hours last night on PS4 and never saw anything close to this. Didn't even notice it was using dynamic res. And I sit about 4 feet from a 42-inch display.
Not saying that the info in the OP is wrong- just that it must not be happening often.
No- even a technique like this won't necessarily allow for a locked 60 if the CPU hits a bottleneck. It seemingly improves the experience, though- or DICE wouldn't have chosen to do it. One thing is for sure- BF1 both looks and runs tremendously better on PS4 than BF4 did.

At that 160x90 resolution it definitely has a Gloom vibe, lol.

Anything for 60+ fps
How would you rank it on a scale from Literally to Unplayable?

You should ask Mark Cerny to install a new CPU into your SoC. Because that's extremely important when it comes to framerates on large conquest games in Battlefield.
You can give Dice shit about this particular bug where the min res isn't set for the dynamic scaling, and general launch optimization bugs, but you can't give them shit for hardware limitations. That's on the box you're playing it on. If you care a lot about performance, you're on the wrong platform.

Can it at least run a stable 60fps at 90p?
Wait for the Deluxe version.

Would be if bf1 was gpu Limited and not cpu Limited.
Still my favorite

Looks like the 3DS port.

Time to get my native 160*90p CRT out of the basement.

We had giraffes in BF4?
BF3 beta. It was wonderful

You're in the wrong place, I'm afraid. From what I can gather, this thread is for drive-bys and snark only.
BF3 Beta was probably the worst beta i've ever played. (Oddly enough BF4 beta ran better than BF4 at launch)
Well, to be fair, my comment was made mostly in jest; as a software developer, it really tickles me when a feature works too hard/well at its purpose and ends up transforming into a bug.
