Good performance presentation but every xox owners must have feeling watching this do they really need xsx as difference is not nextgeneration for sure and we know microsoft will not create xsx exclusive soon

DF: Gears 5 on Xbox Series X: The Tech Demo Analysed In-Depth
- Thread starter Kinthey
- Start date
Dark1x Dictator you should watch the talk with the dev about the PC version of Gears Tactics from GDC.
Might gives some hints also about Gears 5 and Series X
Link and timestamp is in the OP.

Gears Tactics - Bit of gameplay from GDC talk and small look at graphics options. PC version will be optimized like Gears 5 and improved
Gameplay. Not the best quality. As its downloaded from a livestream. This is the "gameplay" used for the benchmark mode btw. Benchmark mode like Gears 5 Some settings Full interview can be found here. Wich shows also the settings in a live way and a very interesting talk with the devs...

When the framerate suddenly drops to 30fps because we're transitioning in to a cutscene or whatever, it's a total immersion breaker for me. At least the PC version allows you to keep a constant 60fps.
Also 24fps would just introduce judder unless you want your console to switch your TV to a 24hz output every time there's a cut-scene for an immersion breaking blank screen during the TV refresh change.
Yeah. They rebooted it at one point. I don't recall the exact bootup time, though, but it was much much faster.
Those features ARE enabled in the demo but the benchmark didn't use them as they aren't available in the PC build.
New hardware runs old game way better, news at 5.
I reeeeeeeally hope we start seeing real next gen games soon. More Hellblade 2 please! Seeing all these old games (that I already played) isn't getting me hyped to drop $500 on a new console at all.
Show us the new next gen stuff already! Where's Halo Infinite?

This isn't an actual cross gen game, this is a patch for an old game. Actual cross gen games will have a much wider gulf in quality and that gulf will get bigger until they stop making cross gen stuff. Xbox's first party cross gen phase is only going to last a year or two, 3rd party games are going to be cross gen for just as long if not longer.
The cross gen approach could also end up being hugely beneficial to MS since we are going to face a big recession because of COVID-19, potentially limiting customers of next gen hardware for awhile.
Why are you asking that in this thread?
wow that 13 sec loading time, absolutely disgusting for a prev gen game.
I was promised no load times in next gen 😂

vrs was mention in video that can be used to bump already very good performance ;)
This demo wasn't optimized for the SSD, as stated in the video.
Very impressive to me because my PC (1080 Ti, 3700x) wasn't even close to delivering consistent 60 fps at native 4k max
I did watch the video they just say they are not using the API, and that it should be faster but not that it would get load times to 0. And I also was half jk hence the emoji.
The Series X is using dynamic resolution scaling in the campaign section they showed.
The only time they turned it off was during the special benchmark they ran across all systems. It showed the Series X performed essentially the same as a 2080.. so similar to your 1080ti.
Turn your "minimum fps" to 60.. and cinematic FPS to "unlimited" and you essentially have the Series X version from this demo.
Two weeks without using the additional features of series x and to push it as good as an rtx 2080, my goodness. the games that utilize all of those new rdna and series x features are going to be amazing.
You do realize that the is a game that's getting Xsx patches after release? Cross-gen games will be better.
There's no need to worry. Halo Infinite was designed with XSX in mind and will be a showcase launch title for XSX.
Do you have the blog announcement for the MP redesign? I loved the game, but having too many modes and the shitty economy made me drop it after 3 months
Here it is, they are doing a fundamental redesign of many elements of the MP systems which won't come up with Operation 3. Link below:

Did you see the os then ? Will it be the same like on Xbox one x ? A part of the new console magic is always a new UX/UI to me
People are familiar with the OS, it's pointless to redesign it just because of "oh my new shiny console". Xbox OS has iterated and should be the last OS ever on Xbox imo, just like Windows 10 is the last OS MS will need to produce on Pc and just keep iterating on it. It only makes sense.
Holy shit at the load time. Curious if it'll be non existent when the SSD is factored in.
So if they updated the pc version with those features like vrs and mesh then it will lift the performance higher on the 2080?
Huh?
Titles for Xbox One running better and looking better on Series X is a great thing. Just because a game is from a generation or two ago doesn't mean people won't play them. If anything, they know any titles they buy on XOX will run even better on next gen. You know your titles will work and get enhancements.
If someone buys a Series X, and gets Game Pass, they'll be able to play Gears 5 at 4K/60FPS with great settings, they'll be able to play the MP at 120 FPS, they'll be able to play games like Sea of Thieves, Ori, and even older games from over a decade ago like Fuzion Frenzy (original Xbox) with enhancements like HDR. I think Xbox owners are looking at Microsofts dedication to backwards compatibility and improving the games & are impressed by it. No other console maker is doing this.
As for Xbox Series X exclusives, Microsoft is obviously making them. We won't see them in the first year, might see them in the second, definitely will see them in the third.
Hellblade 2, as far as I know, is one of them.
Your right that XOX owners at launch might be thinking do I need this right *now*, and they might wait a bit. $400/500/or whatever they price it at, that's not cheap. But down the line when exclusives start coming out, third party drops current gen support, being able to play your favorite games that look better than ever will be great.

Movies already made the mistake of staying with 24hz, I don't want games to do the same. Everything looks better at higher resolution. I can't watch movies without interpolation anymore, the stuttering in panning shots gives me a headache and looks disgusting.
Now i need a tv that supports it and definitely will need to have hdmi 2.1 lol
my wallet am cry
Microsoft is going all out with next gen. I've been a big Sony fan since PS3 but man the XSX is looking killer. They will have my money for sure.
I don't know, maybe instead of adding shadows to objects far in the distance only a 10x magnifier could reveal, a game developed with 12TF in mind from the get go could spend all its budget on things that you can actually see and look much more of a generational leap, even without new features.
Sure but, again, that's not what was compared.
The benchmark was made without those features enabled on Series X or PC.
The actual demo with the extra features isn't what was benchmarked.
