You are using heresay to backup your claims, I'm telling you what gamers "say" doesn't even matter. Only you have suggested sacrificing framerate for resolution, which is what you keep assuming to counter my argument. Newsflash, I never said A. frame rate wasn't important and b. framerate is less important than resolution.

It is clear you do not understand the terms I am using so I will define them for you.

Resolution - The amount of pixels that can be rendered per frame on the display. The more pixels you display the more detail of a scene you can show. This is fact.

Draw Distance - The distance from the observer position that objects are not culled from the rendering process. If an object is outside of the draw distance then the observer cannot see it.

Resolution isn't simply about whether or not something is sharper, that is completely naive and unaware of how games even work.

If you don't have enough pixels there is a limit to the detail that can be drawn and that limit decreases the amount of things that will appear distinct in the distance. You can increase draw distance past the limit of detail you can render but it is a complete waste of resources because the viewer cannot see them.

Yep, the usual rhetoric. Sorry, the difference between 720p and 1080p is mostly negligable when actually playing games.

In practice I see people sniping just fine even when playing resolution sub-720p.

I'm not going to argue every point I don't have the same passion for internet arguments as you.

Increased detail benefits gameplay that depends on that detail. Resolution allows for increased detail. You can disagree all you want, your opinions aren't going to change facts and your just spinning in circles trying to reduce its importantce, because everything is a console war to you. 

This is not an argument, this is a correction. Deal with it. Clearly your passion lies in defending your console of choice because your attempting to turn a statement about the objective benefit of resolution into a subejective statement about what different people can percieve and thus what is negligble to them, SOLELY because of the fact that the PS4 tends to output 1080p on games more than the X1. Your insecurity of the resolution disparity not only blinds you from comprehending the fact, but also compels you to futily try to downplay an objective fact about computer technology because you cannot fathom anything other than PS4 vs X1.

Hell, you even think of yourself as the epitome of the average gamer, honestly, if you were you wouldn't even be on these forums.

Your opinion is irrelevant, this is not a matter of opinion, its a matter of fact.

Nothing is wrong with preferring 720p, some people can't tell the difference between 720p and 480, but that doesn't mean you have to lie and say the difference doesn't exist and its not beneficial to gameplay.
