"Some of the hardcore data collection, correlation, and translation that we expect to do is difficult and takes a lot of horsepower, and that is one aspect of the cloud that is attractive to us."

I really wish you would stop speaking as if you know things about technical aspects of software and hardware.  You don't.  You hear things then repeat them.  Mostly with clear bias.

The issue is... I know about technical aspects of software and hardware

Youve sure not shown it on this site.

Insomniac are good developers, I see some pretty good IP coming from them in the future.

I think clouding computing this next generation will be focused on already online games, or its multiplayer portion.

Maybe a cloud singleplayer option for harder AI, but still with option for normal singleplayer.

I'm sure I did... dozen of time here... you just missed but can look at my post history.

BTW if this game have a offline mode it will run everything in the Xbone's hardware... no Cloud will be used or needed... maybe they are using the Cloud for development that but it is not anything new because a lot of devs uses Servers Farm to offload the processing.

Edit - The Cloud itself is not even close to anything new

im very aware of your post history. Though if i comment about it too much then ill get myself banned.

The only thing this confirms is that the cloud is being used for certain things but it isnt being forced on you.  

And stop with the smiley faces in discussions like this.  We arent teenage girls fighting with one another.

@Op - Curious about this game.  I liked Resistance, Ratched, and Spyro so I hope it is good.  Didnt play fuse but from my understanding im hoping it is better than that. Still waiting for gameplay.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Are you mad? You can talk anything with me without get banned... I don't know what you are afraid about.

And I like smiles

If this game plays offline it didn't use Cloud processing for nothing... Forza 5 didn't use too... it only uses the Cloud storage to storage and share the drivatars... all the processing is done offline (GT5 does that too with the B-Spec profile). Sunset Overdrive was one of the games impossible on another plataform due the Cloud but now the Cloud is not required or needed...

BTW MS stopped to talk about the Cloud because they faced all the fud over it.

Im not going to comment about what devs do and dont do.  I dont know what they do and neither do you, if they say something then trust them and show a little respect.  If they say theyre using it then there is no reason to say they arent.  Whether it is a lot or little is a different story.

No im not mad either, no worries.  If you want to know then PM me, im not going to bring it up in public.

And you really think because they stopped talking about it it suddenly is gone from their plans?

Argh seriously shut up about the cloud now, its freaking annoying, until their is factual evidence the cloud is better!



By 2015/16 it will become evident just how important the cloud is. And how much of an advantage it is to Microsoft. I believe this will be the most important factor this generation. 2nd being multimedia function.

Gamers will be a massive minority in terms of voice by 2017. And this is the last gen where just a games console will sell.
