Forums - Gaming Discussion - Assassin's Creed Unity is 900p/30fps on both PS4 & Xbox One 'to avoid all the debates and stuff'

Conegamer on 06 October 2014

My word, this is such an awful awful thread. There's been plenty of people moderated already but I'd be surprised if that's it.

You know this thread is really rather disappointing. Some of the posts in this thread are just awful. So let's stick on topic please; else you can expect a severe moderation. You've been warned.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Lazy port?? From preview builds it seems that Ubi is up against the wall in getting all the bugs fixed and performance up to snuff. If anything, the developers had to make a decision on delivering the game on both platforms with rock solid framerates. Just because the PS4 is more powerfull that does not mean in all scenarios it will run at 1080P. If anything, the X1 might suffer frame drops and inconsistent graphics while the PS4 is rock solid. Without having the finished game who knows how each game will perform.


Ubisoft already admitted that they created parity to "avoid debate". They actually did the opposite. 

If anything that quote probably was a dumb mistake.  I am sure there is more to going 900P with both consoles then just to avoide debate which any one with even a iota of common sense would know it would do the opposite.

People have to stop complaining. These consoles are not powerful, and 900p is still quite decent. I'd prefer better AI, better textures, more people on screen, more immersive world than 1080p anyday!


yes we need 1000 mindless irrlelvent people on screen to pointlessly kill, really adds to the game ehh.  

Or you can have 1000 AI individual who have something to do that is not totally scripted.  Reacting to things that happen around them in a believable manner making the people and environments including the characters believable.  The first Assassin creed was promoted to doing such a thing but fell way short.  It seems that Ubi is trying again to present that kind of world.  When all is said and done is a few pixel which get scaled to 1080P any way more important than making the world more believable?  


What you don't get is that a cpu doesn't hold back the resolution.  That is the GPU, and the PS4's is at least 50% stronger.  Also people really need to understand that the Xbox One's CPU is only 9% faster.  So yeah I'm sure the PS4 stopped the Xbox One version from having 1090 NPC's /s



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.

HAHA One of the funniest posts about the parity

Lol, yea that is pretty funny.  The only thing you would have to reduce is the AI.  And let's be honest, that's just a BS excuse anyway, as I'm sure Unity's AI is nothing special compared to other 1080p games on the PS4.  What's hilarious is some Xbox fans actually trying to say that this means the PS4 gimped the One version.  Seems they don't understand that a slightly higher clockspeed does not equal better CPU.  In fact, a couple websites did benchmarks on both CPUs and found that the PS4 slightly outperformed the XBOs, probably due to fewer bottlenecks.

@ OP

Ubisoft deserves all the hate, as well as the lower sales, they are going to get from this.  Well, that is if they don't pull an AC4 and release a Day 1 patch that ups the res.  Personally, if they do release a patch, I'll get it new.  If they don't, I'll buy it used or not at all.  Parity is not to be accepted.  I don't remember devs running to the PS3's rescue early last gen and gimp the 360 version of multiplats, so why start now?  MS money is really all I can think of.  They do have exclusive advertising rights this time around.


They deserve every bit of it. The Xbox fans who actually thought the Xbox version was gimped are delusional and willing to believe whatever possible to keep their hopes up for their brand of choice. Don't get me wrong, Sony fans can as well, but this is set in stone and has been since last year PS4 was tested and outperformed the Xbox One handily.We were all warned by Machinima that this would lead to worst case scenario politics causing a company to gimp the game. We all saw Microsofts reaction when Blizzard was having issues optimizing Diablo to 1080p on the Xbone. They cannot handle being second best. Clockspeed wont change things as you've said.

My response had nothing to do with resolution.  I was talking about making a more believable world with better AI.  I personally do not care about the resolution part but I would like to see developers concentrate more on AI, Animation, Physics.  Resolution is all great and good but it’s the end all that makes a game great.  When it really comes down to it, I only care about the finish product.  If the game looks good to me, I just do not have the time to care if its 900 vs 1080P.
