People on GAF are choosing 720p to play KI and DR3... the image is way better without the upscaler.
A hint for Xbone's owners... set the Xbone to output 720p for these games while MS didn't fix that.

No this is wrong. Massively.
Run the Calibrate HDTV under settings. It starts by clearly saying make sure you have turned ON the 1080p setting if your TV supports it. Then it runs you through resetting all TV sttings to factory. Then it runs through all Contrast, Brightness, Black Level settings, Colour Temperature Rone among others. It requires you to follow it exactly the order Microsoft are telling you to do it. Its way more extensive than the set ups you get on Blurays for example.
My blacks actually arent crushed. I played this last night to see. My picture is not like the top ones in this thread. But more importantly are not like the bottom washed ut ones either.
If you run the set up and do it properly at 1080p you do not get crushed blacks. The image for example in a dark scene is not invisible in places.
Categorically. The 1080p image I recieve after doing the set up is infinitely better than without set up and 720p.

Maybe you're just not seeing it or don't want to see it. Otherwise you can help out the people at AVForums and AVSForums that are having problems with their calibrated displays.
I'm just annoyed that I've had my TV settings calibrated (using settings from HDTV Test I believe), and now along comes XB1 with its HDMI passthrough, which crushes blacks and degrades the picture.
I knew Star Trek: Into Darkness* lacked its usual quality when I watched it via XB1's Blu Ray player.
Between this and the HDMI passthrough, the black levels on this console are screwed up.
My TV simply has Full, limited or auto - Unlike Samsungs who use HDMI black level, low / normal.
TV - Limited Xbone - Limited = Crushed Blacks
TV - Full Xbone - Full = Crushed Blacks
Also tried variants of the above, with no better image. My TV is configured correctly, and everything was spot on with My WIIU and PS3.
Anyway it's good the XBox One introduced you to TV calibration as it seems you have enjoyed washed out TV for the past 7 years. Maybe because you had the tv's brightness up to compensate for the gamma adjustment on the 360?
Calibrate HDTV settings included -> big plus.
Altering contrast and gamma on console -> huge NO.
Using HDTV calibration via XBox One is nothing more then a patch trying to undo a basic flaw.

So he hasnt run the Xbox One HDTV set up for the input his HDTV is accepting his Xbox One signal. He clearly says he used the settings from another source. My freind paid to have his HDTV set up proffessionally. But since then has realsied every device gives a different output. His recent Sony Bluray Player he bought for £400 ( Not a cheap Bluray player these days ) changed his picture again. You should set up your TV for each device and input. Hance why all TVs now can save settings for each input.
As I only have 1 input now to my TV ( The Xbox One ) I made sure to set it up via Xbox One exactly as instructed. I know what crushed blacks look like. I do not have that on my Xbox One at 1080p. My Killer Instinct does not look like either picture in the OP.
Ive posted a video about how my Sky runs perfect in the UK with no juddering. So Im not lying about my results. I will attempt to try and capture my Killer Instinct at 1080p. Thats harder though, as it has to be camera. Because card capture wont work, as it would need my TV settings also. Microsoft have included terminology for all makes of TV in their set up.
