Xbox One X Enhanced Games - Full List of Titles and Details

Some gaffers in evil within threads have gotten their early PS4 copies and have confirmed no Pro support as of now. I mean, I hope it's patched tomorrow as I will be picking it up.
Ah, okay. I hadn't seen that.

An xbox one X will always play the game in 4k does exactly that.
I can't agree. For one thing, the resolution mode explicitly says it "targets" 4K, not simply that it runs at 4K. But more fundamentally, it's definite that at least one mode is dynamic, yes? So that means native rendering size is not always 4K, without any doubt.

...Yet the text still says "will always play the game in 4K". So that "play the game" can't possibly equate to "natively render", it has to mean "output at, no matter the render size". And if that's true, then quality mode could indeed be 1080p without violating the statement.

That's not proof it does, and maybe it'll run higher. But nothing in the graphic makes 1080p impossible.

Wasnt there a post not so long ago wich improvements AC Origins would get outside resolution? I believe there was but cant remember.

Edit: its on the OP. Duh.

I very much doubt it. The engine doesn’t use CBR on the previous game, or the resolution mode in this one. And presumably they'd say if quality mode had a resolution benefit over standard Xbox One. The quality mode is almost certain to be 1080p.

I was just going by what the article mentioned as both modes being higher resolution:

Whichever option you decide on, you'll still be playing Shadow of War at some sort of lovely ramped up 4K resolution. Which is a good thing.
 
I was just going by what the article mentioned as both modes being higher resolution:
Fair enough. But that article is clearly just restating info from the graphic, which doesn't explicitly give the quality mode resolution (i.e. it's a guess). My guess is that the "ramped up" 4K output for that mode will be upscaled from 1080p. We'll see.

EDITED TO ADD: Looking back at the infographic, I note that the description about users with 1080p displays says supersampling will happen, with no qualifiers. That could mean that only one mode is available, but it could also be an indication that both modes are higher than 1080p. That makes me less sure about the quality mode being 1080p; perhaps it will still be above that, just not as high as the resolution mode.

Under Assets installed it says which assets are currently installed. X is one of those options , only games updated in the last few days have that.

A couple of other games such as Forza 7 demo and Gears 4 are listed as Xbox-Scorpio instead.

That's weird, mine had the pre-index for X1XE, but only had Xbox-Durango;Xbox-Durango-Only. There doesn't seem to be a way to force/push the install so I just deleted mine to redownload as well.

The other two tags are: X or Xbox-Scorpio, right? I've got quite a few games that are tagged X now as well.

edit: That worked, Gears 4 is coming up with Scorpio Assets installed now.

There are quite a few games that have already updated to X versions, but don't show in the section.
Forza Horizon 3 and the Forza 7 demo both have updates.

The games themselves have he assets installed but the flags that control how they sort are not right.

Their are still a few kinks, my gears 4 wasn't X ready , I just deleted it and reinstalled and now it is.

That's weird. I just checked my console and the only ones showing as X ready are Gears 4 and Need for Speed Payback (I preordered that one, shut up). I have Halo 5, Quantum Break, Recore is updating right now, Forza Horizon 3, the free to play games, all of that. And only two are showing up in that section. What's up, will they show up once the updates are installed? Where is the Assets Installed section, so I can look at that?

I'm slowly realizing this 4k updater thing seems to let a lot of games fall through the cracks.

Right now I see:

Overwatch
>OBSERVER_
Forza Horizon 3
Madden 18
Path of Exile
Palldadins
The Culling
Crossout
World of Tanks
Battlefield 1
Elite Dangerous
Gears of War 4
Battlefront 2 Beta
Forza 7
Fortnite

The thing is though, the only reason Gears of War 4 is updated is because I deleted it and started the entire download over. Recore isn't showing as 4k Assets available, but we know Jez posted screenshots of that game stating it installed an X update.

I hope it's just a lil buggy.

Glad to see at least *something* finally for Overwatch, Blizzard has been surprisingly quiet on whether they would do anything for XB1X. As least as far as I read.

I deleted and redownloaded a bunch of games last night, ones that had X have now changed to Scorpio. Halo 5 now says this. Even 360 games and games so old they won't be getting patches.
Games that have been recently updated have had Xbox-Scorpio added now.
File Sizes haven't changed

I'm not entirely convinced that that actually represents the assets now, if it were some kind of compatibility change that all games required, then I think MS would have said , as it would essentially mean regular (older) Xbox One games wouldn't function on X without an update.

Unless of course a manual tweak is made to each game to allow the 16xAA and stuff to happen, but the game works without this. We know MS have to manually vet and create the correct backwards compatibility profile for each Xbox One game.

I've not been on my Xbox One S for a long time, so I'm not entirely sure what's change in the UI. If I boot up my console tomorrow, what should I be looking for? I'm not following this talk of having "X" or "Scorpio" changing.

As of today nothing unless you are in the preview program. The new dash that has all this stuff is not out yet.
 
1080 on PS4, 900 on One
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2015-rainbow-six-siege-face-off
Image quality is typically a pretty cut and dried affair but we see an interesting trick employed here that enables stable performance with a minor compromise to image quality. At its core, the PS4 version operates at 1080p while the Xbox One is 900p - but that's not the whole story. Ubisoft makes use of a "temporal filtering" feature that has a pretty interesting impact on the game.

Essentially, this feature renders the game with half the number of pixels on each axis with an ordered grid MSAA pattern before reconstructing the image to match the final output. This is then coupled with a post-process temporal anti-aliasing solution to minimize artefacts in motion. So, at 1080p, we're technically seeing 960x540 with 2x MSAA. Interestingly, it would appear that the image is processed before being upscaled on Xbox One resulting in blurrier HUD elements and menu text

1080p CBR on PS4, 900p CBR on Xbox One.

Edit: I mean yeah, it's not exactly Checkerboard as we we know it, as Sony's implementation tends to render one of the axes at half res instead of both as RS:S, but you get the idea.

It's some hidden version detail stuff you can see by highlighting a tile in my games and apps and pressing LB=RB+Window button

I just looked, and have the Durango moniker.

I don't know if I should delete and redownload.
 
Ok guys, so less than a month until it comes out and I am wondering how all of this is going to work.

For example Skyrim and Fallout 4 getting One X support. Will these patches be there on day one or yet unknown? And it was said we can already preload 4K assets on our current consoles, but how and when? I have my One S on instant on so perhaps it already has been downloading these assets while in standby.

Yeah, the "Assets Installed" seems to have been changed on anything updated after some time on the 5th of October (I have Rare Replay's copy of PD Zero that was last updated at 02:49 on the 5th that doesn't have the X in assets, then Momodora updated at 19:15 that does, along with anything updated after that), including old 360 BC games, and retro-style indies that wouldn't ever need any improved assets.

Since it seemingly applies to everything updated after a certain date/time, I'm guessing it's something cert-related. Maybe they're requiring 4k-ready dashboard UI assets now, and that's activating the X/Scorpio flag? Stuff like the game tiles, the full-screen hero art used on Home, etc.

do i have to do anything to get the xbox one x updates?

edit - sorry prior to it coming out

And it was said we can already preload 4K assets on our current consoles, but how and when? I have my One S on instant on so perhaps it already has been downloading these assets while in standby.

The setting to allow downloading Scorpio assets is currently only available on the Preview dash - Settings -> System -> Backup & transfer -> Download 4k game content.

If you're not in preview, you'll have to wait for the update to be publicly available (not long now, since they're pushing builds out to the Omega ring, which only happens shortly before release). One of the content blocks you can add to Home on the new dash "Get Ready for Xbox One X", which has shortcuts to the relevant settings section, and to the new bulk transfer tool if you want to copy stuff to a new external or over the network once your X arrives.

thank you
 
Thanks Ahra. I am in Preview but I did recently sell my fat Xbox One and am borrowing my friend's S console. But that still means I am in Preview right?

I went to system and I can't find backup and transfer. I went to the insider hub app and it actually says Join an Xbox insider ring at the announcements part. I don't get this because I've been ring 2 or 3 for a while now.

This is some BS though, it seems I'm really not in a ring anymore. I can choose between delta and omega now. It says I'm level 3,observer, apprentice.

Insider status is tied to your account, but consoles have to be enrolled manually. You don't get preview updates pushed out to a system just by logging in on it (which would be a mess for people who might visit friends who aren't insiders and use their systems, for example).

The rings were renamed a while ago (around the start of the current preview cycle), and ring 3/4 are now delta and omega, so if you were ring 3 before you'll want to select Delta.

Yeah my bad. It was two years ago or more that I went into preview, forgot how it all worked. Wouldn't even make sense that every single console with that account would be in Preview. Maybe I'll just wait for the One X now and just keep it like this.

There's some FFXV news, didn't think it needed its own thread.

Basically that it will be over 30fps on One X.

By the way, still no mention of Prey at all?

FFXV's Pro mode included CB 1800p, 1080p Unlocked Framerate and a locked 1080p 30 mode.

So I expect the modes to be similar, but better on the X.

Probably CB 2160p and a higher average framerate on the unlocked mode.

When I saw the presentation of next week's Xbox update on "This Week on Xbox", it got me thinking about 4K assets. I preordered a One X, even if I don't own a 4K TV yet, since I hope the Supersampling feature will "enhance" the visual experience.

So the question is, do I need to download the 4K assets to take advantage of Supersampling?

Offcourse. Otherwise nothing to downsample then.

Yes I'm really hoping that 4K assets really does make a difference.

no sense in wasting all that beautiful 4 gigabytes of RAM
