Hahahahahaha ok.

10,000 NPCs on screen at one time? What a load of garbage!

I don't buy it.

I don't know they might give it a rest for a couple ye-PWAHAHAHAA! ok I couldn't get that one out with a straight face

imaginedvl-

mean, saying that they are using all the power is true in my oppinion. The tools are not optimized yet for the consoles yet so of course they are using very bad algorithms. But in term of power, I do not see why they would not be using 100% of it. Later during the generation they will come out with new and optimized algorithms which will also use the same 100% power but with better results. This is what we see with each generation.
If you are talking about the PS4/Xbox One difference (or the fact that it looks like there is no difference between the two) is another thing or again, maybe their tools are just not very good on PS4 which would be weird as it is basically the same hardware... or lastly they may be working closely with Microsoft to actually optimize the Xbox One version very much while going the generic way with the PS4...
So at the end, I believe the statement is quite right. They may just be not very good at programming yet :)


i really doubting that,devs have been saying sonys tools are the best in the business(atleast the ones at beyond3d) and im doubting sony just got bad at it all of a sudden,cause it looks like ubi done very good with those tools on blackflag. i cant imagine ms has these wonder tools that overcame quite a big diference in gpu/gpgpu,,,, they think we're mentally challenged and will believe their pr shit... they blew their cover with the first statement they made when they said they're making everything equal to end all debate(more or less), and have been trying to get their huge foot out of their mouth ever since

yep. basically devs use the power more efficently. And it's Ubisoft so no surprise to hear they're not using it efficiently. 

So Mark Cery was wrong, Ubisoft is already using GPGPU to it's maximum potential, it seems.

Just because all 5000 NPCs can be interacted with, doesn't meant they're all individuals with unique response algorithms. There are maybe a few hundred reaction/response variations, which would be nice, but it's unlikely to be as amazeballs as they make it sound.

God I hope the PS4 and XBone aren't tapped out.

And the bullshit train continues....

every single year, every single generation, someone comes along and claims their game is pushing the console to the absolute limit, and yet still, the next year they claim the same and push things further.

Nothing but PR babble.
