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

I wouldn't say it looks next gen in motion, since I reserve such rhetoric for something that's truly graphically impressive, but it definitely looks like something that is no way in hell possible on the previous generation.
Having said that, "direct feeds" from a lot of console games never seem to match up with what I'm playing on my television. I'm not sure if it's because they look better in motion, or I'm not sitting 2 feet away from the screen, but it's definitely something that I've noticed over the last decade or so.

Penello still posts on GAF; he just pretends all that shit didn't happen.
I just think it's weird to see the double standard; any normal poster would have been nuked from orbit for half the shit Albert did.

A lot of people reserve judgment for final release versions since things can change. Respawn even gave people reason to hope that the resolution could still improve between the beta and release.
Even then, patches can still improve graphics post-release. Look at AC4 and COD for PS4. If you applied your logic to those games for PS4, then people judging those games' graphics based on release or prior would be very wrong.
And I find your statement funny, considering the opposite is usually used in defense of a game when people shit on it before release. "You're all criticizing the game when it's not even final yet. The devs still have time to work on it!" Not saying you're one of those people, but if both sides had their ways, no one could say anything about any game ever. Criticize before release and, "Your criticism is premature! Devs can still improve it!" Criticize after release and, "It's too late! Didn't you already see footage pre-release? Why are you just saying something now?!" It's really silly to complain about it. People will see footage at different times and choose to comment or not at different times.

Whew...
Is it bad that I seriously just exhaled in relief to this news?
CBOAT Lives on!
And personally, I'm glad you pointed out his exemplary record. Seemed like some revisionist history was going on here where CBOAT's accuracy was concerned.

Considering the real value in GAF is from *reading* and not *posting* I would say that most bans aren't meaningful in the way you're talking about.
Neutralfanboy wasn't so neutral so got Neautralized.
The Alpha used low res textures. 25% the resolution of the Beta/final game. Before and again after the Beta came out, he claimed the alpha textures would be used in the shipping game. That was never going to happen. The 720p thing, was just him claiming the final res would be 720p, it wasn't, but that was a far more plausable guess.
Exactly, and this is the reason why I keep mentioning it.
He is an official MS spokesperson and we KNOW that he lied to us, for months and months.

A little puzzled by a three day ban. He hasn't posted in almost two weeks.
His biggest "loss" isn't the ability to post, anyway, it's his credibility which went down to normal levels. As I said, I appreciate insiders and don't expect 100% hit rate, but it would be nice to get explanations after the fact on why somebody thought that his info was correct and why he thinks that it turned out to be incorrect. Otherwise, you are only left with the person's track record, and while it still is exceptional, it got some pretty big hits lately.

The game definitely looks better than the beta on Xbox One. You might be able to see in the video I posted but then again its youtube..

Image compression like this does make pixel counting harder, but it's not impossible. My counts of the images in the OP do support the Beyond3D analysis of 792p. This makes CBOAT wrong, but it also makes this comment from Respawn questionable:
Respawn said:
Also, is it just me or do these Titanfall shots look like trilinear without AF?

I don't think you can even play anything with it offline. You'll get as far as the main menu before having to connect to a server.
Just as well it plays like it's made of pure fired gold then.
Nothing... he stated some facts about xbone hardware which were true, and microsoft's belief that those details would mitigate Sony's performance advantage which was wrong. People just have some sort of derangement syndrome about his posts. They also claim he lied about the reasons for the tier 2 delay, but that is just based on... cboat

What about all the legit predictions he's made over the past 9 years? Even recent ones like DR3 exclusive, etc. Mods shouldn't be cherry picking and not looking at posters overall record. Those other posters probably don't have a track record even close to CBOAT
Ah yea forgot about that requirement. Forget it then! I guess there's no way to really know what resolution the game ships at.
This is the most comically inaccurate analysis of what happened I've seen yet. Not only did they lie or exaggerate on scores of actual verifiable facts about the hardware, but they lied or exaggerated as to how it would actually function in real world scenarios in comparison to PS4. It wasn't some innocent mistake where they truly believed the difference wouldn't be as large. Derangement syndrome indeed.
- He said MS wouldn't give a power advantage to Sony (his infamous WE INVENTED DIRECT X post)
- Differences between games would either not exist or be incredibly minor
- MS would never supply information to the NSA
the list goes on. Just go through his post history, it's a goldmine.
A lil wind won't part the buttocks from GAF.

Anyway, I'm actually surprised that the final resolution is 792p and not higher. What's the reasoning? Or is the Xbox One hardware that restrictive? I mean, the source engine was used specifically to get the higher frame rates and resolution.

If you're planning to play the game windowboxed on a 1080p display, it'll look a lot better, yes. You'll just need to sit closer!Those look worse than my screens and more compressed.
Also a 1080p pic at 500kb...wut??? 1MB is needed for 1080p.

To be fair he didnt say they wouldn't give a power advantage,he said a 30%+ advantage. The rest are bs though.
It's an online-only game, so no.

From reading the thread I suspect that the frame drops and screen tearing are holding it back.

I think this is fairer than a permaban. Other insiders have been wrong and not gotten the perma. We don't want to discourage leaks but we still want to encourage vetting information for accuracy and reliability. No matter what cboat or Respawn says though the game does not look great graphically.
That 30%+ advantage is also bs from Penello.

Is there any E3 vs latest build comparisons for this game kickin aroud yet?
I really don't think you know what the situation was. If people want to talk FUD, look no further than Penello's posts in the summer.
