PS4 too powerful for Call of Duty: Ghosts... woah!

 

[Elios83]

Basically PS4 is too powerful for this game

 

[Jack_AG]

I dont buy it. Polygon says otherwise and even scored the game lower on PS4. Polygon truth > DF lies

 

[alr1ght]

 

[Skeff]

So polygon gives the PS4 version a lower score because it has a higher framerate? That's hilarious

Perfection.

 

[chubigans]

Dammit man, the framerate is too high! We need more particles! MORE!

 

[Hung_real]

good job IW

 

[Mendax]

The perfect final twist. Is the gap really that big between x1 and ps4?

after having seen livestreams and reviews of both consoles' games that should be pretty obvious

 

[MDSLKTR]

lolygon

 

[Pagusas]

What now PC owners? What now?

Triple Buffering, Vsync, G-sync, 120hz native monitors. Yeah we have lots of things to allow us to lovingly embrace games like this.

 

[Shining]

PS4 - It's so good it's bad.

 

[feint_ruled]

So polygon gives the PS4 version a lower score because it has a higher framerate? That's hilarious

To be fair to them, the visual side effects are indistinguishable. Even DF had to analyse frame content to find out.

 

[Dario ff]

So frame rises over 60fps are bad now?

Most console games that are locked to a consistent 60 FPS always tend to run above 60 FPS. It gets locked to prevent tearing and overheating tho. For example, Bioshock runs above 30 without Vsync. They have to account for situations where the screen might get too busy, like a fighting game with lots of effects going on the screen at the same time.

 

[stryke]

The introduction to next gen has never been more entertaining.

 

[ILoveBish]

Over delivering on value.

 

[3rdamention]

lol, what a twist

No kidding too much power. I guess it is the PS4 that is "too future"



Pushing better than 60fps. Although it is a problem, it is a good problem to have. Use some V Sync or dial back to a locked 60fps, and hopefully the problem is fixed. At least the framerate isn't dropping considerably.

 

[DrZeus]

The feel of 120fps in 4D!

 

[Leftovers]

Too much power?

 

[KillerDark]

Haha wow, thats crazy

 

[Y2Kev]

We are not worthy!

 

[darkwing]

problems because it is running over 60fps?

add more dogs

 

[kasane]

I just cant, this is too funny.

 

[Gamespawn]

So basically, CoD on PS4 is too good?

Nay, Too Future!

Edit: damnit 3rdamention!

 

[Interfectum]

The crows will be extinct around the Polygon office is this keeps up.

 

[prwxv3]

Wow what a twist.

 

[chubigans]

To be fair to them, the visual side effects are indistinguishable. Even DF had to analyse frame content to find out.

Are we talking XB1 vs PS4? Because I don't agree.

edit: ok, nm

 

[AstroNut325]

DAT effects parity leaving too much GPU muscle unused! Barring AA and resolution it looks like developers are trying to get effects parity. So naturally you end up with more frame rates on the PS4.

 

[ZROCOOL]

PS4 > PC

 

[robertsan21]

To be fair to them, the visual side effects are indistinguishable. Even DF had to analyse frame content to find out.

Then they should have their eyes checked. Its a huge difference.

 

[nib95]

So polygon gives the PS4 version a lower score because it has a higher framerate? That's hilarious

That's what it sounds like lol.

On a side note, where are these massive frame rate drops that Polygon and Joystiq speak of? There seem to be barely any in the frame rate analysis video?

Shenanigans afoot it seems...

 

[Pharaoh 117]

PS4 is just too powerful. Sony should tone it down on future firmwares.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

What now PC owners? What now?

lol

 

[THEaaron]

This is my favourite video:

Damn.. dat aliasing on Xbone.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

IW somehow messed up PS4's power advantage. Come on sons.

PS4 really is the better version but this issue is ridiculous. IW need to patch that up.

 

[xenogenesis]

 

[MrChocolate]

I don't think using Call of Duty as the foundation for hardware crunching assets is going to bode well in your proposed taunt.

Triple Buffering, Vsync, G-sync, 120hz native monitors. Yeah we have lots of things to allow us to lovingly embrace games like this.

 

[GANGSTERKILLER]

In that DF video the PS4 framerate doesn't even drop below 60fps. Oh yeah.

 

[kasane]

Someone update the banderas gif that lags so that its super fast

 

[feint_ruled]

Are we talking XB1 vs PS4? Because I don't agree.

Then they should have their eyes checked. Its a huge difference.

No, I mean the effects of a too-high FPS and too low FPS are the same - frame tear and judder. Resolution is clearly different!

 

[Xater]

Are we talking XB1 vs PS4? Because I don't agree.

Yeah I could immediately see the difference in aliasing between 720 and 1080. It was especially visible on foliage and fences.

 

[Slayer-33]

This is fucking hilarious.

 

[Nozem]

That comparison tool thingie is nice.

 

[Slair]

Does this mean that, what people were perceiving as frames dropping below 60 was in fact frames dropping from above 60 to 60 which gave a noticeable different feel to the responsiveness of the game and then they just assumed it was dropping below 60?

 

[Monty Mole]

So frame rises over 60fps are bad now?

It's only bad because they're not locking the framerate to a multiple of the refresh rate.

The PS4 can only output 60fps max, as it's locked to 60hz. So if it's rendering at over 60fps you're going to get judder. Hence IW just needs to lock the framerate to 60fps and everything will be fine.

The good news is that PS4 has plenty of muscle. It bodes well for the future

 

[Skeff]

That's what it sounds like lol.

Shenanigans afoot it seems...

"slows to a crawl" is a phrase I remember hearing.

 

[thelurkinghorror]

WTF?

 

[FairXchange]

I always recognized that these frame 'dips' in Ghosts on PS4 seemed more like an anomaly than a performance hit.

 

[Oxirane]

What now PC owners? What now?

Flood the forum with PC posts.

 

[Kaako]

Lmao who would have possibly conceived such a thing! Must be the power of la li lu le lo.

Oh I see. Yeah this has to be the first time I think anything like this has happened.
