CoD: AW is 1080p on Xbone

[greenmedic88]

I can't even believe people are still making this argument.

Scratch that: yes I can. Some people will never cease to disappoint.

It simply demonstrates either a fundamental lack of understanding in how resolution is measured, or a mule stubborn willingness to pursue a false argument.

1080x1080 native resolution, progressively scanned = 1080p.
1360x1080 native resolution, progressively scanned = 1080p.
1920x1080 native resolution, progressively scanned = 1080p.

And prepare to have you mind blown if you can't grasp the simple measure by which 1080p is defined:

5760x1080 native resolution, progressively scanned = 1080p.

BY DEFINITION: 1080 only refers to the vertical "lines" of resolution; it has nothing to do with the horizontal resolution.

P simply means Progressively scanned as opposed to Interlaced (alternating lines of resolution are scanned each refresh cycle).


Is it the same as Full HD (a marketing label that specifies 1920x1080 pixels of resolution, progressively scanned)?
Obviously not.

But then Full HD was not what was used to describe how the game will run on the XBO.
