Support NeoGAF

[Pennywise]

Oh yeah, but on this side we got

Major Nelson
Albert
and
wait for it
TheKayle

Good old Kayle is in good company there.

 

[Wishmaster92]

What have you done....

 

[Foffy]

Wait you mean there is no secret sauce? :O

Does Gies still owe someone on GAF $10?

 

[Alienous]

DICE doesn't seem to like XBO much and they're making the engine that powers all non sport EA games. Think about the implications of that for a second.

Does Frostbite have it's own engine team, anyway? Even if DICE itself didn't care for the Xbox One, it would still be supported by the engine. And in the event that wasn't the case, EA would move to a different engine before abandoning the Xbox One.

The implications aren't too significant.

 

[3rdamention]

But Major Nelson said.....

"Wait for the truth"

 

[jacksepticeye]

I foresee a great thread coming

 

[velociraptor]

Oh yeah, but on this side we got

Major Nelson
Albert

and









wait for it












TheKayle

Bravo. I laughed out loud.

 

[Dodecagon]

holy shit

I doubt he's serious

 

[soulassssns]

Don't care I'll get both....

 

[Ploid 3.0]

Oh my.

I hope when Larry Hyrb joins GAF this is the first thread he sees.

Like I said in the other thread. He probably didn't even try hard enough, he don't want to be here, it will be a nightmare for him. Too much work, like a janitor being presented to the aftermath of a 2day food fight scene.

 

[Chamber]

#dead

Perfect reaction.

Holy shit, thats the saddest thing I've ever read on gaf.

 

[AngryMoth]

I will be so glad when these things come out and we can get some definitive answers. All this speculation is getting pretty tiresome

 

[avaya]

Does Gies still owe someone on GAF $10?

Yes. With interest.

 

[Carcetti]

I wanted to go to sleep but this will be the most awesome console war thread, the great battle of our time.

 

[NBtoaster]

Does this even matter? The 360 was less powerful than the PS3 and the multiplatform games for both performed the same and in some cases better on the 360.

Because it wasn't really less powerful.

 

[nib95]

People who've been swallowing daily doses of Microsoft PR and math are surprised by this. Most I'd hope are not.

 

[Vire]

I will be so glad when these things come out and we can get some definitive answers. All this speculation is getting pretty tiresome

What more do you need? You heard it straight from the horses mouth - the developers who are making the games...

 

[Corto]

50% looking down, 33% looking up.

 

[Uno Venova]

I doubt he's serious

i know haha, no one will over this news.

 

[Alienous]

Like I said in the other thread. He probably didn't even try hard enough, he don't want to be here, it will be a nightmare for him. Too much work, like a janitor being presented to the aftermath of a 2day food fight scene.

A two day food fight? More like spontaneous hallway diarrhea.

I can't imagine Nelson being impartial enough to engage in any meaningful conversation on NeoGAF.

 

[FINALBOSS]

So which one of you are going to fess up and admit this is you:

@adrianchm @vithren @ubermlin Does this mean whatever shitty indie game you are making is going to be exclusive to the Indiestation?

 

[PJV3]

MS is still working on what the truth actually is.

Tell MS that. Sony has been open on their specs.

We were almost past the spec stuff - Albert decided it's a good idea trying to spin the difference down to 0%...

A multiplat dev should just leak a few screens, I can understand that, techno-babble not so much.

 

[statham]

holy shit

oh come on!

 

[Curufinwe]

Does this even matter? The 360 was less powerful than the PS3 and the multiplatform games for both performed the same and in some cases better on the 360.

The 360 had a better GPU, more available RAM till Sony shrunk its bloated OS, and a unified RAM pool.

 

[syko de4d]

cheaper, smaller and stronger. You can´t ask for more.

This has nothing to do with the power difference between xbox 360 and ps3. PS3 more power costs Sony 200$ per console and a way more complex architecture. Now the PS4 is 100$ cheaper and developing on both consoles should be around on the same complexity level.

 

[NHale]

Oh my.

I hope when Larry Hyrb joins GAF this is the first thread he sees.

I do too since he was so eager for the truth to come out and since I helped it to come out (I'm still surprised nobody saw that tweet...) he will probably get me some gifts. He must be so happy that the truth has finally set us free.

 

[yencid]

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

What have you done..

this.

 

[Syphon Filter]

That would be a huge difference.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Did he factor in the infinite power of the cloud and the hidden 2nd GPU?

 

[derFeef]

So which one of you are going to fess up and admit this is you:

Must be Derrick.

 

[redtails64]

The sarcasm in this thread is overwhelming... funny, though.

 

[avaya]

Well played Webbo well played.

 

[BleachAndPepsi]

Did he make them fucking race?

I'll subscribe to this '50% faster' being pulled straight from his arse. What a convenient percentage for such a vague attribute.

He didn't make anyone do anything. Read his original tweet: It's what all of the devs he's talked to have said.

 

[Ricky_R]

For someone who previously said you had no dog in this fight and couldn't care less of the "war" going on, you sure do a lot of drive-by postings everytime something positive about the PS4 creeps up or something negative of the Xbone comes along.

And it's always something snarky just like this.

It's called sodium.

 

[Snapshot King]

A multiplat dev should just leak a few screens, I can understand that, techno-babble not so much.

I imagine framerate would be a much better indication of the performance difference than screens nowadays.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

So which one of you are going to fess up and admit this is you:

shots fired

 

[Yawnier]

This also makes me wonder the speed difference between the PS4 and Wii U, goddamn that must be lopsided.

 

[Zombie James]

Update #2:

Adding to OP...

Yeah, but he doesn't know The Truth™ (powered by Doritos®).

 

[Twin Tails]

Oh my.

I hope when Larry Hyrb joins GAF this is the first thread he sees.

This will be the first reply to his first post

 

[redhot_]

The sarcasm in this thread is overwhelming... funny, though.

And for some, crow with a dash of salt.

 

[kpaadet]

Its nice to see devs not hiding behind PR bullshit.

 

[BleachAndPepsi]

What damage control? He is right. We had threads about this very information almost every day for the last three months.

But it is kinda nice to have solid confirmation from a dev talking about several other devs.

 

[fluffydelusions]

This will be the first reply to his first post

Lol

 

[Prelude.]

 

[netBuff]

A multiplat dev should just leak a few screens, I can understand that, techno-babble not so much.

Much of the difference will be in things potentially not visible in screenshots, like in achieving a more stable frame rate even in complex rendering situations (just think of Far Cry 3, for example, terrible on both consoles but much more pronounced frame rate drops on PS3).

At this point, it's very clear Xbone is going to be getting the weaker multiplats: The difference also seems to be much bigger than with the current console generation.

 

[Portugeezer]

This must be the truth Major Nelson was talking about. The truth is coming.

So perfect.

 

[eddfromtheriver]

Let's wait for the inevitable naysayers as they begin to try and come up with arguments to invalidate his post.

 

[Curufinwe]

How many is that now?


Jonathan Blow reporting on their dev friends saying the same.
NFS guy.
The DICE guy.
Avalanche guy.
People Can Fly guy.

Did I miss anyone?

Yes, this War Thunder dev.

http://www.gamechup.com/war-thunder-dev-ps4-gpu-is-40-more-powerful-than-xbox-one-gpu/

Gaijin Entertainment has bluntly stated that the PS4 GPU is 40% more powerful than the one in Xbox One. We already knew this for a long time but Microsoft had never confirmed the console’s GPU specs. Currently the PS4 GPU runs at 1.84 teraflops compared to the 1.3 teraflops of Xbox One GPU.

Anton Yudintsev told Edge in an interview that “obviously PlayStation 4 is more powerful than Xbox One,” and gave some details on how much the difference is.

“It depends what you’re doing. GPU, like 40 per cent more powerful. DDR5 is basically 50 per cent more powerful than DDR3, but the memory write is bigger on Xbox One so it depends on what you’re doing.”
