I doubt Ubi knows how Scorpio is gonna be called.

 

[gamz]

Thats gotta be bullshit.

No, they are lying about it. ????

 

[ekim]

So apparently it has a more consistent framerate than on PC?
Also, Scorpio seems to be the name. Not even Xbox Scorpio?

As I said they simply say Scorpio.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Thats gotta be bullshit.

Maybe. Journalists generally suck at figuring out resolutions and frame rates, but that what's in the article.

 

[BleedOrange]

a certain subreddit has the scans

the obvious one

I went to the obvious one. I see no scans.

 

[mike4001_]

What's kind of the Codename still. But yeah. It could also be named Scorpio.

But then it would be called Xbox Scorpio.

So they would refer to it as Microsoft's new Xbox Scorpio console.

 

[Theorry]

"Someone got early access to a Game Informer article for the next AC game. The game was conceived shortly after Black Flag's release, with production beginning months before Unity's release."

 

[edbooneyebrows]

No, they are lying about it. ????

I mean why the fuck would PC version run worse then Scorpio

unless they purposely gimped PC version?

or what did they gave low spec pc version

I mean they were up for 30 minutes and we had 2 or so pages talking about them. You gotta be more on the ball

Who the fuck knows? Chill.

 

[peppers]

Ya I am reading the whole thing right now but I find it really strange. Like is the Xbox name going to be the base model and the constellations are going to be the pro models? Is the next one called sagittarius? Or an entirely different name altogether?

 

[ekim]

But then it would be called Xbox Scorpio.

So they would refer to it as Microsoft's new Xbox Scorpio console.

Now you are splitting hairs. I doubt anyone outside of MS knows the name of the console yet. Why should devs know the name now?

 

[Strootman]

Just noticed, xbox twitter just changed the profile pic with a white background.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Could just be because the vertical slice they saw was optimized for Scorpio since they're likely showing it on Sunday at the Xbox conference.

 

[blakep267]

Who the fuck knows? Chill.

Oh boy. I can already see the meltdowns of Scorpio being the preferred version of some games for whatever reason over PC

 

[gamz]

Just noticed, xbox twitter just changed the profile pic with a white background.

Yup.

 

[Xumbrega]

Wow @ AC Origins 4K/30fps with consistent frames within weeks on Scorpio


Scorpio is a BEAST

 

[MosquitoSmasher]

AC Origins will likely look very damn good like Unity and Syndicate, with that in mind if Scorpio runs that in 4K/30fps.......

That is quite damn nice. Didn't think i would be really excited for a new AC, but the info in that article sounds really damn good to me.

Native 4K?

thats impressing then

Settle down man, the game is still in development. Surely it's easier to work with a machine with a set spec versus hundreds of different configurations.

Wait till the game is out.

 

[dancmc]

Just a little more than 48 hours!!!! Keep those leaks at bay.

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Hahahaha

Wouldnt the demo PC build be set spec of config

 

[LukasTaves]

Thats gotta be bullshit.

It's not, just saw the scans.

Likely the pc demo wasn't optimized yet, but in the very least they say it's 4k on Scorpio and really smooth, though at only 30fps.

 

[Art Vandilay]

Now you are splitting hairs. I doubt anyone outside of MS knows the name of the console yet. Why should devs know the name now?

Agreed. If they're trying to keep the name under wraps, telling the devs isn't the best way to go about it.

 

[ekim]

We expect 4k/60FPS now?

 

[Theorry]

There is also a loot system.

From what i read it looks like the game goes more towards Witcher gameplay.

 

[The Pet of the Month]

Wouldnt the demo PC build be set spec of config

Yes, and good point, but I have no idea how Ubisoft tests out their games. Could have been running on a lower spec machine, maybe the renderer needs work, maybe there are test options enabled that are impacting performance, etcetera.

Sit back and have a Dr. Pepper, my man.

 

[Self_Destructive]

Maybe the PC version was running with some Nvidia effects bogging their systems down lol

Native 4k/60 fps is not going to be a norm on a console for a long time

 

[Welfare]

What are the chances every game shown on stage (outside of ID@Xbox) is native 4K? They are setting up 4K streams so might as well use it well for the best viewing experience.

 

[hanspampel]

Unity was the best looking game of 2015 next to Battlefront
good job of getting it to smooth 30fps on 4k.
that bodes well for other games

 

[gamz]

Native 4k/60 fps is not going to be a norm on a console for a long time

Besides Forza 7, but yeah.

In two fucking weeks! Nutso.

AC games are quite dense so a solid 30fps at native 4k is definitely impressive.

 

[MosquitoSmasher]

Yeah it really sounds damn good. Seems like changed the combat quite significantly too, which is only great news. Great article with very interesting info and it looks quite sweet in the screenies.

That part about Scorpio sounds promising. If most/all developers can get their games that easily on it without much obstacles....that's nothing but good news.

 

[creamhackered]

Microsoft refers to Project Scorpio as Project Scorpio or Xbox One 4K internally. I'd doubt they're calling it just Scorpio without the Xbox branding. Xbox Scorpio? Maybe.

 

[wesleyshark]

Never said impossible

 

[blakep267]

I don't know about that. Maybe not future games, but I def see Forza 7, Halo 5, gears 4 all having 4K/60.

 

[wesleyshark]

I don't know about that. Maybe not future games, but I def see Forza 7, Halo 5, gears 4 all having 4K/60.

I'm talking new games, should have clarified. I think we'll see some here and there but I would imagine we'll see far more 4k/30 titles.

 

[BleedOrange]

Microsoft refers to Project Scorpio as Project Scorpio or Xbox One 4K internally. I'd doubt they're calling it just Scorpio without the Xbox branding. Xbox Scorpio? Maybe.

Xbox S....

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Microsoft needs more flak for killing Scorpions

Makes way more sense.

 

[EvB]

We need more gifs!

 

[Xumbrega]

who needs e3 when you have these gifs

 

[LukasTaves]

Ow, I should have phrased it better XD

I meant that even the pc version was 30fps, and that it was smoother on Scorpio. Not that Scorpio running at 30 is a bad thing for a game like that.

But, they ported the game in just a few days to Scorpio and it was running like that already.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Battlefront 2 at 4k is gonna melt yo' pants

 

[The Pet of the Month]

To be honest, I can't quite decipher the story here.

 

[fantomena]

Good stuff. AC: Origins in 4K on Scorpio and running smoother than the PC demo they (Game Informer) were shown. That, plus they got it up and running on Scorpio in just weeks after getting the dev kit.

Sounds either bullshit or they had a bad PC.
