DLC Pre-Order Bonuses on Wii U already, too.

This is the real big news. Not good, not good at all.

Guys I just got clarification or the Proof about the email here it is.

People here are too technical for their own good. I know from the moment they said "Full HD" that GAF would take it as 1080p, and rightfully so, but that clearly wasn't what Activision meant.

 

[NBtoaster]

Call of Duty Classic (COD1) runs in 1280x720 on XBLA with 4XMSAA.

Duh, it's a nine year old game.

Who is Bianca Blair?

 

[Dorfdad]

Also for the record: Bianca Blair is a Publicist for Activision so it's legit.

Some people take that for granted.

Halo Anniversary in contrast is Sub HD. (Better graphics aside)

I have a feeling you want your reputation back lol.

 

[SapientWolf]

B...b..bbut GAF said it "knew" that it "definitely" was 1080p at 60fps.

I blame Activision for not trying hard enough.

In all seriousness, 720p is still better than what Wii offered. In time, there will be 1080p title for the console. Just don't expect too much partiality from activision for a system that does not possess an install base significant enough to warrant that kind commitment of resources.

Then how did they find the resources to add all those sexy DX11 features to the PC port? Acti doesn't really give a damn about that platform either.

 

[la_briola]

Actually, it's the complete opposite of a "lazy port".
It seems to be at least on par with the ps360 version's and also has pro controller & wiimote/nunchuck controls added.
All everyone is waiting on is more info regarding Nintendo's Online Infrastructure.

Thats not saying much. What are the Wii U Gamepad features?

 

[Dion Blaster]

Did anyone think Activision of all people would achieve 1080p? I never understood this hope. They are not a company whose words you should trust.

 

[polyh3dron]

lol my retina macbook pro runs MW3 at 2880x1800 with ultra everything at 60FPS.

PC Port runs at 2880x1800 with DX11, the budget for the PC version must have been 5 times what the console version was right

But treyarch is. I mean, just to be clear, I never expected the wii u version to be 1080p but treyarch has put in some serious effort in their wii COD ports

tough days for the wiiU. first nsmbu, now cod. what next?

MY CONCERNS ARE NOT EASED, DORFDAD

I was just making a point that it wasn't a lazy port. I personally don't care for Wiimote/Nunchuck controls but it's my understanding that A LOT of Wii Call of Duty fans were very excited about the inclusion of that.

As far at Wii U gamepad features go, this is what i know:

It has a map on it and weapon/killstreak icons as well.
It allows for "off tv play".


Of course if the Nintendo Online Network is subpar, then this game and every other multi-platform Wii U game with online play will flop.

I'm glad they're being called out on their bullshit.

1080p matters.

Would be shocking if it wasn't.

Of course.

No surprise there

The first three posts -_-

The first three posts -_-

I'm pretty sure they where talking about that they would be shocked if Black Ops 2 wasn't coming to Wii U.

 

[Hiltz]

The news hardly comes as a surprise. I'll never believe any PR guy who blurts out a buzzword like "full HD."


Anyway, I commend Activision for taking advantage of the GamePad and continuing to stick with the Wii remote & nunchuck (God knows that's how FPS games need to be played on Wii U).

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Than what was your post about?

 

[BY2K]

Seriously, the bigger news is that the Wii U is getting DLC at launch. As a pre-order bonus.

The Wii U is starting that shit from day 1... :/

And check it, it's gonna be on the disc.

 

[ShdwDrake]

Yeah this is one reason I'm skipping the wii u and waiting for the PS4/720.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

I didnt read the thread, I thought all the posts we're relating to the pr dude saying it was in 1080p.

 

[Meelow]

Because the Wii U version of Black Ops 2 won't be native 1080p?

 

[TwEE-N-Toast]

Is there demos on the 360 I can download to see what native 1080p is?

 

[Medalion]

Really, "reality check"?

Yeah the fact it can move even a few P's above 480 a lil bit is the best thing about this system...like seriously

 

[KDash31987]

Rayman Origins, and Virtua Tennis 3. Only ones I can think of off the top of my head that aren't Xbox Live Arcade titles.

 

[Reiko]

some 1080p 60fps games

Perfect Dark XBLA
Daytona USA
Double Dragon Neon
Sonic CD
Sonic 4 Episode 1 (lol)

 

[Medalion]

Rayman Legends, and Virtua Tennis 3. Only ones I can think of off the top of my head that aren't Xbox Live Arcade titles.

No longer Wii-U exclusive cuz the lack of 1080p love lol

I think it's somewhat funny because you posted in the thread. Not trying to shot you or anything, just thought it was a funny coincidence.

I thought Dorfdad was done making threads

Better him than pramath's rubbish. Dorfdad is completely inoffensive.

Its fine, I did say it was the same game though. I even pointed out what the hell were people talking about with missing particles or whatever they were saying.

edit: How in the hell I forget that thread..

 

[denshuu]

Welp. That's no surprise really.

720p Native on console is good enough at the moment.

No, it was good enough 6 years ago. It's old now.

I did say "At the moment". The other consoles didn't come out yet.

LOL COD is not even native 720 on the other consoles.
