ehh im going to be mad at the final xbone version I know. 900p looks almost as good as 1080p because of the way they are doing AA but its much smoother than the ps4 version.
whens its 1080p i bet that smoothness go away.
Shadows look rougher to you? Playing through the opening, the first long hallway with enemies, i notices the shadows cast by the enemies seemed a little less refine.
However, no time too switch on the PS4 and compare, too much goodness to be had on XB1 regardless.

A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.
Nope. It's not giving me the "download" button.
I even checked the Alpha file and it lets me download it, or at least has the download button available.
Has to be a bug.
FUCK!

I've posted a Bungie Beta FAQ several times. Look for it in the thread or the OP. It might help you.

wat. A super can easily beat an interceptor. So can heavy weapons. Try using the turrets on it too
also deej said the interceptor setup wont be the same at launch
Yep.

Oh, right, I thought it was confirmed that the shared world/co-op stuff would work without Gold. But I see what you mean.

That sucks. PS4 needs more stability.
Happened to me too. The first time I told it to resume and it did. Now at 71% it keeps going back to queued when I try to resume

Supers -at least the golden gun- can take out a tank in two hits.

Confirmed: A Bungie game being inputted on a Microsoft Controller feels like home.

Man I want that winter gear thats in the art during the installation.
Then I suspect it was due to heavy lag in that particular match. It was way worse. At a point, an interceptor was bounding from place to place without smooth motion. I thought it was changed or something because I thought I killed an interceptor with a super in the alpha
Okay, I'll have to take the fact that it didnt work as me shooting where it displayed the interceptor had been

If you're seeing stuff like interceptors not taking any damage from supers or turrets, that is lag.
What you playing on a 100" screen?
I been told that is the only way to tell the difference.

You have so much time to kill someone who activates golden gun in front of you, I don't know how you got killed.

I don't know what the words you are speaking mean.
After playing the first two missions on xboxone after playing the ps4 version since the beta launched this are the only differences I noticed:
-aliasing is much worse on xboxone (this is probably because the beta runs in 900p and therefore should be already fixed int he most recent build)
-shadows are lower resolution in some areas (this is very noticable in the tower by the ship vendor, they are almost the same in the open world tho which seems very strange)
-by default the game was much darker, upping the ingame gamma fixed this
-imo the controller on xboxone is just way better. Rumble is more diverse, aiming is more precise and pressing the sticks for sprinting etc. feels better. This was the first time I noticed you can single fire with the assault rifle if you pull the trigger and instantly let it go again (this might be me, it probably works on ps4 but the "stickier" triggers didnt lead to me discovering this), why are there other rifles in this game? ar can now single shot, burst shot and auto fire...
Using the "View" button instead of the "touchpad" isnt as nice though because its so small. (Im still hoping for real touch support on ps4, that would be awesome)
-loading times seemed to be way shorter, but I havent tried the ps4 version since the most recent patch which seems tho have improved loading times.
Damn, now I cant decide which version to buy...
Slightly better looks and dlc first or the version with the imo better controls and also imo better online service.
What exactly was the deal with the dlc? I heard something about 1 Year waiting on xbox?
That would probably seal the deal for me, I cant wait that long.

I take it our xbox friends can play now too? Wait system update? Boo!! Does this add anything? Also is it true our progress in pvp is reset?
no, it's not really that bad
It looks pretty rough compared to PS4 yeah.
140" actually.
Still the full version won't look like this so eh whatever.
Ah did not see that, thanks, that's exactly what I needed to know.
Me too, so I guess we'll know soon enough. But I can never really tell a difference with this shit.
