Forums - Microsoft - So could the X1's secret sauce be "Voxel" Cone Ray Tracing?

Hynad on 19 September 2013

These things will never end, will they?

There is no secret sauce. There is nothing that will bring the performance of the XBO to the PS4's level. It's on the hardware level.

Seriously, why is it so important in the first place? Don't the games revealed so far look good enough already?

Why the need to have the best in everything? Why can't you settle for the franchises you're already hooked to, and be content with the fact that you'll get to play more of them on your console of choice?

 Why all this insecurity and FUD?

prove him its not true or hold your tongue

Oh seriously...

I don't have to prove it's not true...  he's posted a number of these articles (not that I mind)... some if not all are wrong... 

Considering these are all "Secret" it's not for me to prove, it's for others to prove surely.

I'm asking a valid question, from all those that he's posted does he believe this one to be the *one*... or will there be another secret sauce in a few days. Surely only one can be true... or all these things no developer has noticed while developing the games... or only affects certain types of games... The current lack of positive PR about the Xbox performance suggests that either the current games are not using this tech or are unaware of it.

Just ignore him, he's spouting rubbish.

Dang! The X1 seems to have more secret sauces than the shady burger joint down the street!

 

But honestly, I'm not sure what most of the article mean't. What does this mean in laymans terms lol.

People here don't know when to let go of the FUD's their spreading.

Here's a question for you all who believe there is some secret sauce that makes the One as powerful or MORE powerful than the PS4: Why did MS give BOTH the CPU and GPU a boost as a direct response to PS4's specs?

They don't know because most are fakes lol. 

You have people like Adinnieken claiming that the GCN architecure natively supporting ray tracing when clearly the only cards to have done that was the R2100 and the R2500 from imagination technologies.

Why do these threads about Xbox one specs keep popping up? I thought It is already powerful enough as it is and Xbox adopters are very satisfied with what it offers?
