I don't know if we are allowed to make threads about this but this seems strange, wouldn't the 12Tf compensate for the slower ssd ?
With SSD becoming way cheaper and faster i do hope Xbox does a refresh with gen 4 at least so devs don't change things like this


We have started looking into optimizing the game for Xbox, but it is definitely going to take a bit of time unfortunately; QE has been made to be played with the PS5’s extremely fast SSD, the Xbox SSD is quite a bit slower and so we are going to have to change things quite a bit to make up for that difference in speed.

How would more GPU power compensate for slower storage? That's not how anything works.

(Yes, GPU can be used for data decompression, but not in a way that would offset PS5's much faster I/O block.)

PC games seem to have no issue with slower storage , you see no difference in games comparing GEN 3 to 4 SSD, and sometimes even sata SSDs

It is not allowed to think that Tflops compensate for SSD speed.

All I know is any time a thread is posted like this it gets locked

PC also have Main RAM

Because very few games exist that really push real-time storage speeds to their limits. If this game is really made in a way that requires 5.5GB/s of data (more after decompression) to be streamed in, even in shorter bursts, the less than half as fast Xbox SSD would be an issue.

all it means is they have used the ps5's disk speed to do less work managing loading data. they didnt use the speed to do something that wasnt possible, they used it to say 'fuck it, just grab what you need when you need it'
now without that headroom, they have to write some more code to pre-load and manage data like every other developer does. it's pretty clear that it's not an insurmountable task, its just work they didn't bother to do / havent done yet

Seen gameplay videos. I find this extremely hard to believe.

Dev seems to be using these soundbites as a marketing tool.

Some years back they were claiming they’d released at 4K 60fps with real time Raytracing

power of the SSD strikes...................again

Never heard of them. Probably looking for free marketing by click bait articles. Good luck. Game must not be good enough to sell itself.
