I agree, people should wait until the 12th until they freak out over the differences but it's looking likely that the Xbox One version has the same issues as the PS4 one at a lower resolution.

Did you see the recent comments from Infinity award talking about how hard it was to make a game across 6 platforms?
Found it really amazing how they would state something like that shortly after the game's launch. The statements combined with the reviews as well as the news is this thread pretty much sums up the fact that COD Ghosts is the worst COD game in a long time, if not, ever.

Smooth, a somewhat better looking X360 port with smooth FPS across MP and SP ---> According to player impressions.

Though that is likely the case, doesn't that Jeremy Conrad guy have a massive hate boner for MS? I'd like to confirmation from a slightly more impartial voice.

I hate it when NeoGaf goes down. I don't follow any other forum and I only know of GameFAQS, so while it was down I took a peek on those forums - worst mistake ever. Specifically the Xbone forums. The ignorance is INSANE!
I really hated my life for an hour.

Fair enough.... So far, we have Conrads tweets and the YouTube vids popping up. The videos aren't helping any, that's for sure.
That's right

Honestly if you're buying a Next Gen console and you're an fan of FPSs, all you're options are really, really, mediocre at best (at least to me).
Call of Duty that doesn't seem to run decently
Battlefield that has some frame rate issues and isn't 1080p
Killzone which is... Killzone. (I never liked Killzone)
Pretty sad launch.
Yeah, so similar they couldn't make the One backwards-compatible.

So another baseless rumor started? Looks like. Next thing you're gonna tell me the PS4 has overheating problems.

The pc recommended specs were pretty telling on how much of a disaster this game was going to be performance wise.

This.
Absurd requirements considering how mediocre the game looks.
I really don't know how you mess up this bad.
this thread is about to get awesomer

So I wonder what the odds are that Treyarch's next-gen 2014 COD will perform better all around than IW's 2015 one.

I don't see how...on either next gen console - that this game can run below 60 fps. It isn't nearly as detailed as KZ:SF or BF4. It doesn't have a high player count...I just don't get it.
Then again why on earth it needs 6GB of RAM on PC is another question. Only thing I can think of is it just isn't optimized very well for any mid to high tier platform. Maybe Infinity Ward went nuts thinking they'd have all this extra power for once.

Think that says something more about IW than it does anything else.

Probably meant ceiling. Some people have been going around the threads saying that what we're seeing with the confirmed resolutions and framerates on the Xbox One are the ceiling.
But people are going to troll no matter what. Fucking console wars man...
Yeah, console wars are fun, but this is looking like a IW issue. Which is also fun.

First im hearing of bf4 having framerate issues . If you dont like killzone that doesnt mean others dont too
Makes sense when you think about it. If IW can't get the game running smoothly on the more powerful, easier system to develop on then the other one should drop just as much if not more. I doubt lowering it to 720p is all they needed for a smooth ride, this is IW we're talking about.
Anecdotal evidence points to their 2013 effort outdoing IW's 2013 effort (Wii U).

Why do people keep forgetting sledgehammer in all of this?
They're nearly the same size as infinity ward. Activision isn't paying them to sit around.
Yeah, I was hoping for something more phenomenal.
So IW is using a crotchety old engine that ain't optimized worth it's cobwebs for next-gen. It's not all that surprising. Laughable, but not surprising.

This will be really interesting news for Battlefield and Killzone's multiplayer communities. If CoD has completely shat the blanket on next-gen, then the 60fps difference might cause a small fracture in the facade of the Great Gaming Satan.
Theres an xBONE joke sitting right here...

I think we can all agree at this point that infinity ward is a terrible dev. 720p on X1 and frame rate troubles on ps4. The game doesn't even look good. I think we should hold IW accountable for these issues instead of arguing hardware issues on this example.
So the embargo is not because XBO releases one week later than PS4? Silly me!
their engine has probably been so warped to run on last gen, that its just not taking well to new hardware...unless its brute forced as the pc specs suggest.
what!? lmao
That seems to be what I'm getting out of all this; not particularly thrilled with any version of this game with how things are shaping up. I guess these are the growing pains of next gen...
Funny how reviewers cannot even talk about the Xbox One version. Must be pretty bad if there is an embargo on reviews. The few YouTube videos we have seen of the Xbox One version had pretty bad framerate issues so it's moot. Once the review embargo is lifted we'll hear the same story except 720p + framerate issues.
It's ironic because the opposite used to be the case. Treyarch were the ones that used the crappy unoptimized version of the engine with the first Black Ops that resulted in awful performance on the PS3. That was a year after Modern Warfare 2, which had had optimizations done by Infinity Ward, and performed just fine on the PS3.
I wonder if all the tech gurus are working on TitanFall now.
dayum that's a quick ban

You are making an assumption but then stating matter-of-factly that he "obviously has a horse in this race?"
Oh, OK.
And as to why he's stating the XBone version has frame rate issues (what you call "belittling"...that's a pretty fucking easy question to answer: because it has frame rate issues. Go look at that YouTube video posted previously. When a 30 FPS Youtube video looks like a slideshow just from panning from side-to-side, you've got framerate issues.
Considering the guy you are accusing of whatever used to be an editor at IGN and now does a podcast, he either saw these issues himself or it was reported to him by people he trusts.
But regardless, we can all see them in the video. They exist. This isn't a Bigfoot sighting.
That might be helpful. Especially since I actually know who Conrad is, and I have no clue who you are. Thanks for suggesting this solution.

Given how bad it looked to begin with and everything else that has gone on with this game I'm tempted to give the Xbone crowd a pass on this one even if that version has worse framerate drops.
