| Slimebeast said: By "don't change the size of the image" I meant the OP's, GribbleGrungers images, which are compressed down to 755x425 here unless you right-click and choose "show image" whereupon you see the original full-sized 1920x1080p screenshots. So if I just casually browse and come to this thread and see the 755x425 images in the OP, then my reaction will be "wow, there's almost no difference", but when seeing them like you presented them, cropped and aligned for best possible comparison while keeping the scale, all of a sudden the difference between the regular version and PS4 Pro version becomes quite enormous. So my conclusion is that compressed/downscaled images aren't very good for platform comparisons like this. In order to see "the truth" as I called it, it's important to compare screens in the original resolution. I also eventually understood that there's a second factor at play here, the dynamic resolution of Titanfall 2, and that one of screenshots of the regular PS4 running the game might have cathed the game rendered in as low as 720p in the specific moment that screen was taken. Which made this whole thread even more complicated but I commend you for clearing up and elborating all the details in an excellent way Zekk. Very interesting. |
Ah, gotcha. Yeah you're right, image quality comparisons really demand native viewing. The further you shrink the images, the more relative detail you lose. In this instance, anyone viewing the OT on a 1080p screen is seeing the images at just a 6th its final render.
By the way, i figure you'll be interested to hear (if you haven't already) that DF have done some playing about with the Pro version on a 4k screen, and believe it's running at 1440p. It's apparently still a dynamic resolution, but at the time of their original video they hadn't witnessed any shifts from 1440p yet (we'll probably hear more on the latter point once they get around to doing an in-depth comparison).
Thanks for the kind words o/ It's always a pleasure.
