Depends, it's not unheard of for a company to change things up when something is leaked. Just so you know next time, it's "YOU" not "U".

Titanfall retail screencaps (XB1) show 792p resolution? CBoaT ;_;

Jokes on you, it wont look the same then.
The right amount of detail... I popped into this thread at the right time.
Are those really direct screenshots? Even the HUD looks like poo on these images, which either tells me that they are heavily compressed or Respawn is not using the seperate layer for the HUD? I love the theories people come up with to defend CBOAT. He was wrong; simple as that. Get over it people.. it wasn't the first time and it won't be the last (unless he's gone forever)

The game could look better. You can blame the Source Engine, even when modified, there's only so much you can do. Source is very CPU bound and the reason choses was to accommodate a PS3 port before the acquisition. I guess if they update the engine you can hope for a completely different look, otherwise a CPU bound engine won't do well on the PS4 either.
That being said, the game doesn't look like a Wii U game for pete's sake, there are times when it looks pretty good.
I just played a bit with the numbers and have this:
1)1920 / 1408 = 1080 / 792 = 15 / 11 = exact integral scaling is possible
2)
Code:
>>> 32. * (2**20) / (1408*792)
30.089990817263544A realistic usage would be 24 bytes per pixel (12 per sample) in the backbuffer, with the then remaining ~6.45MB used for shadow maps and other misc stuff.
Code:
>>> (32. * (2**20) - (24 * 1408 * 792)) / (2**20)
6.4765625It might also potentially leave the frontbuffer in the ESRAM, though I find this setup unlikely. That would consume an extra 4.25MB, leaving only 2.2MB for other things.
Been covered in the thread. The HUD shakes so no separate layer.

It'll be 60fps, probably the same differences as CoD (texture detail, lower resolution, not as good lighting).
What prevents using movement data while rendering a HUD to a separate layer?
I just like that you use Python as your calculator.
Here in the netherlands, some gaming stores are buying up german stock of XB1's to sell.
Too bad no-one seems to be interested in buying them here either. PS4's still sold out until late april.
No idea, but this is the speculation.

Weren't people playing the beta at 792p? And with better textures than the alpha? He doubled down on already available info. That's why it was so bizarre. Ah well, he'll be unbanned before he probably intended to post again so all's well.
You dig it?
More like a smacked arse
Strange speculation.
I don't think any game has utilized the display planes as of yet though. Especially none that are sub 1080p, which means all but like 2
Cant wait to try the PC version. I hope Origin has good deals on it soon.
Anyhow I honestly believe that Respawn went with 792P resolution to avoid the "720P lol" shitstorm. So they dodged a bullet?
If those are native screen shots....wow. No exclusive should look like that, specially on a system from 2013-2014.

I wouldn't be terribly surprised to see a Wii U game looking like that to be honest.

Looks like WiiU to me.
Wondering the same thing
Ah ok; thanks for your initial reply also ^^
I'm interested in buying, but only when they officially support and release the device here. I'm quite sure this is why a lot of people don't take the dive yet + the lack of commercials etc for the regular folk. I'm also still curious as to what the 'promised' compensation will be.
A friend of mine ordered a PS4 on release in the Netherlands. Got one at home, but it wasn't working. Now 2+ months later he still hasn't gotten one in return, since replenishing stocks takes ages and are really low on numbers.

Not if it's running the Source Engine which is CPU heavy, that's actually why it could be better on X1. Both X1 and PS4 excel in their GPUs, not so much on CPU power.
How does Wii U compare to X1 and PS4 CPU wise? I don't know much at all about the Wii U.
Wii U smokes them. There was a rumor that the real reason Sony are having financial troubles is because they had to put so much resources on figuring out what kind of space age technology resides inside a Wii U's CPU.
Needless to say they still haven't figured it out.

This feels like the peak of this whole resolution gate and it's quite depressing to be honest.
Is it? Because even the most shitty ass laptops run source games fine.
As for TF, it is an awful looking game, the most appallingly flat lighting, but it is the studio's first title, I'm sure they'll step it up a lot for TF2.

I dunno this is former IW. They didn't really update their last MW game, before the whole Activision spat happened.
I thought BF ran at 720p.

BF4 is 720p on the Xbox One.

I have no idea either. I get that the Source engine is probably a large factor in how it looks (I'm not claiming the Wii U and X1 are of comparable power), just that I could definitely picture a Wii U putting out a similar level of graphics in an FPS. It doesn't really matter what engine it would require in order to do so.

You're supposed to post good looking screenshots when you say something like that, not... that...

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
Still, think we can safely say BF4 on X1 looks better than Titanfall on X1.

I believe Frostbite is only used by EA internal studios. Respawn is not owned by EA, EA is just a publishing partner therefore they wouldn't have access to the Frostbite engine.
edit: and for further clarification BF4 on the Xbox one is 720p using the Frostbite engine.
BF4 is pretty fugly on the Xbox in multiplayer.

I would say so. 64 player, land/air/sea vehicles, decent graphics whilst doing it.
My bad, then, for some reason I thought it was 900p on both PS4/XB1, I remember now.
Understandable, I guess. Frostbite though, is pushing so much more than this game it seems (64 player battles) and graphics at 720p. Hopefully we see TF on Frostbire one day.
Siginificantly behind. On par with Xenon (Xbox 360 CPU) at its very best. Less than half of Xenon and utterly destroyed by Cell in SIMD tasks.
No chance of hanging with PS4/Xbone CPUs. They have better architecture throughout, more execution units, a lot more SIMD resources, higher base clock, and more than twice the cores. I would consider it a great victory if someone found a task where it's only 20~30% behind. Probably something very single-threaded and very contrived.
Also hamstrung by much lower system memory bandwidth.

The extra 72 lines of pixels do not save this game's visuals in any way or form.
Luckily it's fun.
