DF Direct: Xbox Series X Reaction - Our First Look At Next-Gen!
- Thread starter ILikeFeet
- Start date
I think it will run very poorly on the OG Xbox One, so agree entirely. Make it a launch day exclusive and you will have at least the Halo crowd on board.
I really don't think he did. I believe it was The Verge and Windows Central and that's it.
It's disappointing but logical, back when the game was starting development there wasn't a Scarlett yet. But it's definitely a bummer.
Honestly, now seeing the trailer bits in this video from last year's trailer it just doesn't wow me much at all.
I think it will run fine, but it just means that from day one, the scope and scale of the game was limited and designed to run on those pathetic Jaugar CPU cores. Sure, the Series X version will run with better textures, graphical effects, 4K, etc, but the extremely outdated CPU/RAM combo on the original One no doubt had an effect on the overall scale and complexity of the game.
The few times I used it on xbox one I always got worse performance in the games I was playing, games like FIFA wouldn't connect back to the server, and I was always forced to reboot.
It's just you can't just say less than one year out of release that the original console the game was made for is no longer considered. Wouldn't be their best interest to drop an install base.
This used to be the standard way of doing things though, along with being the primary way to advance game design/technology. The purpose of a new console used to be to show off what the system can truly do, and what games can look like on it when they're designed from the ground up for the new hardware.
A console with no exclusive games or killer apps becomes much less exciting.
its like every time new consoles comes out. also means social media (if you follow a lot of gaming stuff) is going to be unbearable leading closer up to release.
Lets just hope mods here crack down on the inevitble influx of shitposts.
All too often, when trying to resume a game, it just closes the game and re-opens it or kicks back to the dashboard. Or, if it does work, it introduces performance issues. Which means I always have to reboot the darn thing before frame-rate tests anyways.
Damn, I didn't even think about the fact that halo infinite is going to be a cross gen title that has to work on the baseline Xbox one
Do any of the Xbox models have dedicated hardware for these background tasks like PS4 & Pro?
I don't really understand the disappointment over not having Halo be an XSX exclusive. Sure, the Xbox One is the baseline, but I don't think it will impact the game too much. One of the leads over at 343 was talking about how since their target is high end PCs, there's really not tech limit anymore. Halo will be fine.
My PS4 slim has lots of issues, often has sound but no image when resuming, and I mean the whole console, not just the game. It works much better my One X.
It might have more to do with the actual game though, who knows?
Pretty much. He said "when you do the math" it's twice that of the One X. That's not taking into account the architectural differences. And DF didn't say it wasn't. They were playing good cop bad cop.
Still though, where's he getting 12tf from? Those exact numbers haven't been mentioned yet by MS.
What is RDNA equivalent of 6TF Polaris?
I would be totally shocked if they said 2X as powerful but wasn't 12TFLOPs because clearly that is how they're relating the message.

Where do you think WCG and the Verge got the numbers from?
MS isn't going to directly tell the audience specs yet until they're finalized but it's pretty apparent they are control leaking the numbers to outlets.
Agreed. These two sources are reliable and good sources. I just don't want to get my hopes up just yet.
But yeah, what you say here makes sense. It's controlled leaks and it sounds like this time DF didn't receive the leak, but TV and WC did. :)
We got reliable sources and it's pretty much a controlled leak given to people closest to MS.
MS have yet to officially use the 12tf number. They have mentioned that it is twice as fast. Could leakers be jumping to the conclusion that this means 12TF based on 2 x 6TF?
Personally, I think it will be 12TF as devs would have an actual target spec.
Intresting remark indeed about the companies moving away from teraflop talk because you cant really compare TF of this gen with next gen.
Like if Lockhart is real and is 4TF. They just are gonna say more powerful then the X and better frames or something. Because of they talk about flops it gets confusing. Because 4 is less then 6.
But it really isnt.

Are you sure those outlets are not just multiplying the Xbox One X's 6TF by 2?
Tom Warren and WCG have both firmly said 12 so Xbox has clearly told them 12
Fair enough. I imagine they were told its twice as powerful and have therefore come to that number but we will see.
Or these outlets are just doing the same thing as everyone else without putting any thought into it. They hear it is twice as powerful as XBX so just assume it must be 12TF.
I think you're over thinking this one. Tom Warren is on era so maybe he can verify it but I'm sure it's 12 they're not just going to throw out numbers without making sure they're right
