Looks gorgeous regardless.

 

[omonimo]

I expect it, because there are some games that can pull it off. If it doesn't? Welllll PC ver. For me.

The fuck? The hell you have seen 60 fps free roam on console? In any case I doubt Insomniac will ever work to a pc port.

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

I am utterly confused by the people saying they "don't care". No matter the type of genre but especially for a action game like this , 60fps is a must.

95% (well, probably even more) of similar open-world games are 30 fps. If it was really a must, nobody would have played them.

 

[op_ivy]

I don't mind it being 30fps but not achieving 1080p is kinda disappointing. Phil did say that the new 10% reserve would be put into the effects and other things so maybe they opted for that route rather than upping the resolution.

i believe the devs mentioned they upped the numbers of enemies on screen at once

 

[Kajiba]

yeah, i'm fine with this

Same. Going to have so much fun with this game.

 

[rbanke]

Insomniac have never really created games with 'superb graphics' (although Resistance 3 and Ratchet and Clank Future look very good). This just looks fantastic.

Resistance 3 was a beautiful game that was ruined degraded by what looked like several coats of Vaseline on the screen. I love their games but am not really surprised by the news, they seem not to value IQ as much as other things.

 

[7DollarHagane]

Stop worrying about numbers. The game played great at E3. It was a crazy amount of fun. That's what matters.

Framerate is a number that directly affects gameplay though.

 

[BeforeU]

Looks pretty good to me. Gameplay is solid.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Actually, have there been direct-feed gameplay screenshots of SO?

[VE3TRO]

There was the direct feed gameplay from E3 but it seems to be YouTube only. I'll have a look around though.

 

[Silky]

Apparently MGS5 is 60!

 

[Louis Cyphre]

In the end yes but it's apparent other peoples focus will remain on this. So if that is what will prevent them from enjoying it then I'm not sure what to say but the discussion is still relevant leading up to its release. I just hope we have the ability to turn off that ridiculous trail blaze.

 

[BigTnaples]

Bleh.

Disappointing, was hoping they would hit at least 1080p. Art will suffer judging by the footage.

 

[Can Crusher]

Seems like the kind of game where 60fps should be a priority.

 

[Radec]

60FPS for this type of action game is perfect tho.

 

[Feindflug]

Hoping that's a locked 30fps, as the game will really need it.

Saying that, the footage form E3 gives me hope that will be the case. Seems pretty smooth from most of the footage I've seen.

Having the frame-rate locked at 30fps even at the most demanding times is probably the reason why they don't have any plans of upping the resolution, of course if they maintain a steady 30fps they could always improve IQ with higher AA/AF e.t.c.

On another note I find it weird that we haven't seen 1280*1080 games on Xbone, it has slightly less pixel density than 900p but it will most likely scale better.

 

[Hoo-doo]

Gamersnyde has them. Can't get a link, on mobile.

Those are in 1080p, without HUD, and framed in such a way that I doubt they are actual in-game shots.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Ryse was 900/30 and looked amazing.

This is fine.

 

[VanWinkle]

I expecting 30fps, but 900p is definitely disappointing. Thisngame has an art style that lends itself to a really crisp image quality.

 

[CrackPebbles]

Ah I guess its expected :c

Id be all over the hype if this game had like a 20% turbo option (like DMC3/4) Since it always looks just a bit slow to me in the previews. But with 30fps I don't really see that happening.

 

[jem0208]

Framerate is a number that directly affects gameplay though.

Yes, however if the game is fun regardless of it being 30fps why does it matter??

 

[omonimo]

Apparently MGS5 is 60!

Apparently it's 720p too on xone.

 

[Fox_Mulder]

I'm a sad panda

 

[DeadlyBunny]

Game looks fun. 30 fps is disappointing, but if it's a rock solid 30 then I guess It's acceptable. Either way as long as the gameplay feels good it will give me a reason to save up for an xb1.

 

[zoukka]

Seems like the kind of game where 60fps should be a priority.

Yep, an action game. And look at how many 60fps action games we have today!

 

[bob_arctor]

yeah, i'm fine with this

As great as it looks, that gif is a perfect example of a game that makes you think how absolutely ludicrous 60fps would have been.

 

[i-Lo]

Game looks gorgeous regardless and at least it's neither 720 nor 792p.

 

[7DollarHagane]

Seems like the kind of game where 60fps should be a priority.

For example I remember playing dead rising 2 on console and then on PC later, the difference was so apparent and the game was so much more enjoyable. I guess as someone who has been playing on PC and enjoying 60fps (even without max effects) I really hoped it would be the standard this generation for console exclusives.

 

[OverBlood 3]

No wonder it looked so slow.

 

[omonimo]

Why someone here expected 1080p or 60 fps in a free roam on xone? Dream?

 

[Stealthcobra]

Wow. That actually reminds me of ratchet and clank.

These guys make great games. Don't worry.

the rail grinding and variety of weapons...screams ratchet and clank.

 

[StuBurns]

That was an odd hope, considering it hasn't been standard for a very long time.

 

[bombshell]

Apparently it's 720p too on xone.

If it's the same as GZ, but I don't think that's confirmed. However, it probably will be the same.

 

[Crossing Eden]

yeah, i'm fine with this

.
I think we should let the game's visuals do the talking.

 

[Portugeezer]

You can't ask for much more in an open world game on the Xbox One, 900p30 is fine if they can get a consistent framerate.

 

[Schweinehund]

I dislike how the initial question is a resolution bump and not a FPS bump.

 

[7DollarHagane]

Yes, however if the game is fun regardless of it being 30fps why does it matter??

And why compromise the most fun, the most responsive, and the most smooth experience you could have with this fun game and many others just for some extra graphical effects?

 

[Fox_Mulder]

If only we can have a PC port

 

[Capeo]

I could understand one or the other (1080p/30fps or 900p/60fps) but 900/30 is pretty sad for an exclusive that's been in development this long.

 

[N.Domixis]

meh, game still looks colorful and vivid.

 

[-PXG-]

The game looks crazy fun, but goddamn this is a bummer :/

 

[BTM]

And it will still probably be the most fun game of 2014. Which is really all that matters.

 

[darkness_s]

That was an odd hope, considering it hasn't been standard for a very long time.

That's like saying that it was an odd hope to expect most N64 games to have 3D graphics because it wasn't the standard in the SNES gen. People expect the standards to rise in new generations.

 

[Guymelef]

Why someone here expected 1080p or 60 fps in a free roam on xone? Dream?

1080?
-Exclusive
-Dat 10% GPU more power.

 

[StuBurns]

If it's the same as GZ, but I don't think that's confirmed. However, it probably will be the same.

GiantBomb said it's 1080p/60fps on PS4, so it's almost certainly still 60fps on XBO, maybe with a bump to 900p, who knows.




Also, fucking PC port begging, stop it.

That's like saying that it was an odd hope to expect most N64 games to have 3D graphics because it wasn't the standard in the SNES gen. People expect the standards to rise in new generations.

No, it's nothing like that.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Sigh...

 

[PBY]

And why compromise the most fun, the most responsive, and the most smooth experience you could have with this fun game and many others just for some extra graphical effects?

I dunno. Infamous wasn't 60 and I thought that game looked and played great.

 

[Freeman]

For the type of gameplay they were going for I thought 60fps was guaranteed.

900p/30fps, the worst of both worlds.

Does Insomniac owns the IP?

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

smh at people trying to act like they really expected a hectic third person open world game to be 60fps

 

[Xando]

The game is still a ways 'till release date, I have full confidence in Phil and the folk at Insomniac that the final release will run at 1080p and 60 FPS.

Isnt this game supposed to be out in September or something?
