SPOILERS IN THE VIDEO

Summary:
PS4 - 1080/60 during the fighting locked
XBO - 1360/1080? /60 during fighting locked

Cinematics for both are in 30 FPS with a few drops and rises here and there.

Gameplay drops frames ONLY after the match is done, likely a loading issue.

Norwegian_Imposter · Apr 13, 2015

Eeesh I thought this game would be 1080 on the Xbox 1 :/ pretty embarrassing that it's still happening for Microsoft.

Lovely Salsa · Apr 13, 2015

Couldnt they do 1080p on xbone? KI is 900p and I think it looks better

ItIsOkBro · Apr 13, 2015

Did not see that *presumably coming for the XB1 at all.

Spaced Harrier · Apr 13, 2015

Only superior European internet can handle 1080p 60 clearly.

secretanchitman · Apr 13, 2015

I'm all for the PS4 getting 1080p, but didn't Netherrealm say that both PS4 and Xbone are 1080p?

TheHall · Apr 13, 2015

How is this stuff up before the reviews are?

Mindman · Apr 13, 2015

Any other details in the vid? Like what type of AA used and such?

DarkLordMalik · Apr 13, 2015

900p on Xbox One? I honestly don' think the game is demanding enough for that resolution.

Chucker · Apr 13, 2015

Can't watch the video at work. Why is the presumably thrown in front of XB1. Wouldn't surprise me at all, but why comment if we're not sure?

Reviews are embargoed, this likely is not

Just can't handle playing in other regions =P

In all seriousness I'm fine with 900 on XB1 as long as its locked 60 in matches, KI at 900 looks amazing so I'll be happy.

Gonna be a good time for fighting fans. Got my MK/KI on XB1 and Street Fighter soon on PS4.

edit: Wait OP says presumably, so we don't know what the XB1 version is actually?

Tenebrous · Apr 13, 2015

Solid 60fps on both systems is all that really matters in a fighting game.

OnionPowder · Apr 13, 2015

I'm just happy this is a locked 60FPS. Looks good in action.

Jigolo · Apr 13, 2015

"A around looks like 1600x900p" - at around 1:30 of the video

That's what he says so that's why I put presumably.

CryptiK · Apr 13, 2015

900p on the Xbone.. what a joke.

It's just embarassing for MS at this point. Especially for a crossgen UE3 game.

Chairhome · Apr 13, 2015

Man. A little disappointing if true. I switched to xb1 to play with some friends.

N.Domixis · Apr 13, 2015

I'm surprise people are surprised that the xbox version isn't 1080.

Moosehole · Apr 13, 2015

I can understand the slight disappointment XB1 owners may feel over the resolution, but I think everyone should be happy that both consoles are 60fps locked.

Alienous · Apr 13, 2015

Glad to hear MKX uses superb postposses effects like "DOF".

I remember this dude being the guy who was throwing out terms he had no idea about regarding the Uncharted 4 demo, and came to a different frame-rate analysis conclusion that Digital Foundry did with Assassin's Creed Unity and its patches.

I'm somewhat sceptical of this, but it seems like good news regarding the framerate.

abracadaver · Apr 13, 2015

Can't be that bad if we need a performance analysis to know its 900p. People in europe have been playing it since friday and I didn't see anyone mentioning the resolution.

I'm more shocked that the cutscenes are only 30fps. Are x-rays 60fps at least?

Regurgitated · Apr 13, 2015

I thought 1080p was confirmed for both?

T.O.P · Apr 13, 2015

Unexpected but it doesn't bother me if it's rock solid 60fps (users also said that the game looks great)

No disappointment for me at all, I'm perfectly ok with 900p as long as we get 60fps and not real effect loss. I'd prefer 1080 sure, but as long as it's not below 900 I am perfectly fine. I've played KI at 900 (even lower for awhile) for awhile and it hasn't bothered me one bit.

His framerate analysis of Bloodborne was also flawed because it calculated FPS in some weird way and didn't include frametime like DF.

mintylurb · Apr 13, 2015

Presumably? Yeah, I don't buy that 900P/60fps.

They are guilty of their own issues as well in terms of making up speculations or getting things wrong. He did his own video of GTA5's framedrops being fixed long before DF did anything on it.

I think he's not perfect, but still a decent overview

Nope. 30 too. Injustice and MK2011 were the same, I think Fatalities and Brutalities too...a choice more than anything. Cutscenes are mostly pre-recorded movies using in-game assets, used to move the story and hide loading screens. Only a few are in-game per se, which look better and have more effects than the movies. Guess that also confirms the earlier theory that pre-recorded ones were done earlier and lack the updated visuals and effects the rest of the game got.

jett · Apr 13, 2015

The fight intros, x-rays and fatalities are 30fps too. I guess he considers those "cut-scenes", maybe? Hopefully the framerate in the PC version will not be locked in those situations.

The crossgen comment doesn't even apply in case. There is no porting from last gen versions done here. NetherRealm developed the game for PS4 / XB1 entirely from the ground up. In fact Netherrealm isn't even developing the PS3 and 360 versions, they are outsourced.

Do you mean unlocked?

Yudoken · Apr 13, 2015

Oh man, I wished the cinematics and xrays were on console on 60 fps too because they probably will not run on pc in 60 too because of that =/.

Mask · Apr 13, 2015

I've had the weird slowdown happen during Jax's fatality, right near the end. Went relatively low, maybe about 23-25 fps?

Other than that, it's been rock solid on the PS4.

Oh god is "high voltage" doing the 360/PS3 port. God what a shite developer.

Dammit! I bought if for X1!

900p? Wtf.

missed a word

Bloodrage said:

Why is this surprising? KI is Xbone exclusive and it was originally running at 720p. This is a multiplat game, probably developed on PS4 first.

Dictator93 · Apr 13, 2015

jett said:

hah yeah. Usually when stuff is runs at 30fps on console because of performance reasons... even though it is 60 usually... it then becomes locked on PC for "reasons."

Let's hope it doesn't do that.

Chobel · Apr 13, 2015

XBO - Presumably 900/60

What does "presumably" mean here? He doesn't have the XB1 version? I can't watch youtube now.

If the cinematics were made at 30fps wouldn't it require developing brand new ones to let pc's run them at 60fps? Probably means they will be the same.

suddenlyissoon said:

Well, there has been a pattern regarding parity for quite some time now...

Nzyme32 · Apr 13, 2015

Was watching some videos of the PS4 version and it seems they have cut some of the blood effects (possibly a german version) in Kotal Kahn's fatality where he pours blood from the opponents heart on his face. At least they were in the preview videos shown via the twitch streams

mattp · Apr 13, 2015

weird how the framerate jumps to ~45fps during the cutscenes whenever a qte prompt appears haha

It means he didn't graduate from Pixel Counting college.

I think it's a genuine concern. I don't know how MK9 on PC handled it though.

That's definatley the case most likely. They design their engine to fit the needs of the consoles and so they can't just unswitch it for PC.

Its the same with CC2's games. They are always at 30fps, on PC as well. And even now on next gen, its still 30fps even though those games COULD run at 60fps on both console and PC considering the requirements.

Kysen · Apr 13, 2015

If DF/NR say both are 1080 this guy is going to have egg on his face.

LiquidMetal14 · Apr 13, 2015

Plantation 4 does it again

While it's coming to PS3 and 360 eventually, it's better to look at this game as prioritized for current gen. NRS worked on just the PS4 and XB1 versions with no real regard for how the other versions turned out. Think more Shadow of Mordor than FarCry 4.
