This shit is straight out of some deviantart fan-fiction. Do you really think a developer would do that just because they want to kill some random internet figure that only GAF knows? Please.

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

When you look at a game running on your screen fully blown and running high res textures, then the story changes.
I can look at some Knack screens and believe it's a Wii U game, but after playing it and seeing all the intense physics, I know it can't happen on the Wii U. Same thing applies here. The Wii U version of TitanFall would probably be comparable to the Xbox 360 version if they ever made one. I'd be curious to see how the 360 version turns out by the way.

No, that's crazy.
But why is it 792p? Someone clearly cares about not being labeled 720p.

forstbite has godawful netcode,so it's useless for multiplayer shooters too, pretty graphics or not
I feel like assuming the decision to have a game running at a higher resolution is because of an inferiority complex is trying a little too hard. I think it's likely that it's the highest resolution they could get with the performance they wanted.

Why not? You do know that Bioware changed the ME3 ending when they script was leaked right? Just because you think it's fan fiction type shit, doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
You do see the difference between those 2 scenarios, right?
I don't think that's true.
The beta had plenty of screentear, and taxed performance, the visual bump from 720p isn't significant, they should have dropped it down, I think they would have had 'resolutiongate' not happened.
I can picture it now. The devs at Respawn are sitting at their desks browsing GAF when they stumble across CBOAT leaking that the alpha textures are final. At this point they panic, and decide that they have no choice but to put the non-shit textures back in quickly.
It just makes too much sense.
Partly due to the fact that they are priced around 570, people are not that stupid thankfully.

I'm kind of amazed Microsoft even wanted this game to be a flagship exclusive. It really doesn't do the platform any favors. Maybe they expected it would look a little better in the end.

I suppose you're right, but, again, it does happen and very very often. Am I saying that Respawn is this vindictive? Nope, but come on, 72 extra p? Little sheist if you ask me.

And if the beta is anything to go by, they still failed to lock down 60fps consistently. It would be disappointing if the full game has those drops as well. (Someone would still defend it though.)
It's a weird resolution to go with considering it doesn't improve the iq of the game in any meaningful way.
We'll have a good sense of that with the retail release. If they have it at the incrementally higher resolution alongside the same performance quirks in the final game, I'd definitely agree with you. I sort of have a feeling it's something they worked out already, post-beta.

So. I Dont get it. People are considering the CBOAT leak fake or what?. Is 792p is a big deal or something? For me, this is only a confirmation. And is hard to believe that the XBO cant handle the old source engine at 1080p.

Luckily for MS it's actually a game, and not a bunch of stills. The launch trailer showing all kinds of crazy action, and the word of mouth from the beta, will sell more systems than those screenshots methinks.

It might be the source engine but I doubt it's anything like it was back in 2006, just like how cod ghosts is still quake 3 yet runs shit also, it;s all the extras they tackle on and things the engine probably never intended to do.
What if... it was more important to them not to have a PS4 version exist for comparison?... D:
Confirmation of what exactly? Basically everything he said about Titanfall has turned out wrong so far. The textures aren't the same as the alpha, the private chat isn't a bespoke implementation, it's not 720p (the difference between 720 and 792 is unimportant here, it was already at 792 and he claimed a downgrade from that). So what exactly does this confirm for you?

I don't think so, not considering the fact that the system is still $500. That is what has kept me from jumping on board. I'm not a big fan of spending half a G on a console I'll play for one, maybe two games.
So you think it's even plausible that they were going to ship with the textures from the alpha but instead increased them, just to spite CBOAT? Don't lose your grip homie.
Sublyminal

Hell no that alpha texture shit was retarded of CBOAT to say. I'm saying resolution wise, though, you never know.
Because it plays amazing? Is this game really so offensive to the eyes that the fact it might a game people actually love to play is lost on everyone else?

Agreed on that front. Bumping it to 792p when you still have framerate issues, tearing, and other small visual bugs makes no sense to me. How could you even justify it? Do any tv's even support 792p? Doesn't 720p scale to 1080p better, anyway? I'm honestly curious to the answers, so someone with technical knowledge please enlighten me.
Yea makes zero sense considering that there's quite bit of framerate issue and the fact it's extremely difficult to tell the difference between 720p and 792p. It's like they sacrificed better framerate performance just so the game doesn't get the 720p label.

the resolution sucks, but i'm digging the artwork. looks good in that regard.
It was all part of the same package. Alpha textures, 720p, no Xbox live party chat. That was the claim I think.
Sublyminal
Neo Member
IMHO it wasn't really that good and honestly I think the only reason people are excited for the game is because it offers something new in the sense of FPS genre. I played at a friends house and honestly it got old after a few hours. But, he'll tell you that he loved it up until the moment the beta ended.

Ahh, well I didn't read the thread, so I assumed it was all about the 720p claim. Anyone who thinks devs are going to leave in alpha textures though are off their meds.

I'm getting good at this.
They didn't buy it for the graphics

It sounds like you didn't like it but he did? Sorry, it just seemed dismissive the way you phrased it.

Typing from my phone, forgive me. He loved it, I liked it but didn't love it. I could see myself playing it for about two or three months (much like I did Ghostz) and then be done with it.

Yep. And it's not just that he said it would be 720p, he said directly that it wasn't 792p. So it's not just, Oh I heard it would be 720p, and it turned out to be slightly wrong. I picked up a 1 week ban (I deserved it) before for insulting another member, so it's definitely weird seeing a 3 day ban for something that is normally considered a permaban. But tbh I have no horse in this race, I don't think cBoat will be posting much either, so it doesn't really make much of a difference anyway. I think it's a good standard at GAF that insiders have accountability so they don't abuse their position.

After beta was 792p and better textures than alpha:

This wasn't about 72 pixels. OP should add this, so people know what the topic is about.

3rd day...the 11th...CBOAT is jesus aka Titanfall !! Dun dun dun
Looks pretty good from 10fts away...
Anyway, Day One patch is 840mb for TF.
720-->792 patch amirite?
But seriously, why do devs keep releasing day one patch for a game that has "gone" gold?

We need a CBOAT here in Neogaf, he is very important and a trust insider. If somebody wants CBOAT ban, for such minimal error. Its because wants to keep blind about the XBO reality. Or you considered all the CBOAT leaks fakes, only for this. This is not a game, waiting that a Insiders fails, to reclaim his head. Cmon, what a Joke.
