Nobody can prove anything
But Assassin's Creed IV ran better on PS4 than Xbox One
As has almost every other PS4 game. Nobody can see any reason why they wouldn't push it to 1080p on PS4. But it's a trend, AC Unity, FIFA and Dragon Age all have Microsoft deals. All the same
AC IV, PES and MGS aren't, and that's where the PS4 has a decent advantage
You're not going to find any facts until documents are leaked. Even then, it there may not be any proof if Ubi are being paid to do this, or just being lazy. |
Thats not the case. n the hardware side of things this can be proven. Simply put, their si no reason why the PS4 and XB1 should perform the exact same way. None what so ever. Its only possible if a developer went out of their way to make that happen.
As for Ubisoft being paid to do this... I would just say its not something I would put beyond MS. Just look at the conversation and see if its so hard to believe.
MS: Hey, you guys partnered with sony for watchdogs this year, how about you partner with us for AC this year, its already an established franchise anyways.
UBI: That sounds good, what you got in mind?
MS: Game will be marketed exclusively on the XB1 platform and all demos and previews of the game must be rnning on the XB1
UBU: ok.....
MS: we will of course cover all the marketing costs and cover the cost of development for the XB1 platform, you will also pay us $5 instead of $12 on royalties for every copy of the game sold on the XB1. But there is a catch though...
UBI: Whats that?
MS: we deman platfrom parity, specwise and content wise. You can't have the PS4 version running at a higher resolution or having extra special content.
UBI: fair enough... that could work. You got a deal.

It's not that I don't believe that that could have happened , but it's only one of a number of possibilities
Equally Ubi could have got the game running at 900p on both and decided not to do more work on that aspect. Maybe Far Cry 4 needs help running smoother, so they put more people on that? Or maybe there will be other differences. We'll find out in a month if there is actual parity for starters, the why question may never be answered
