XBOX GAMING THREAD | PHIL TRUE 4K

I'm hoping everything is actually native 4K and not checkerboard rendering, upscaled or whatever else there is.

Based on what is described in the article, I would say with 99.99% confidence that its native 4K.

This is going to be so key to Scorpios success.  This current generation has been a let down in terms of hardware.  Xbox One, One S, PS4, and even the PS4 Pro all have framerate issues depending on the game that's being played.

Didnt even beat FO4 i burnt my self out on it building settlements

Same

There were some cool new mechanics in FO4, but the story gave me zilch and the setting was so similar to FO3 I ran out of steam long before finishing

The rx 480 gpu which is 6 tflops can do 4k at 20-39fps at ultra settings, according to various people's benchmarks.

If a game's settings are dialed back for scorpio, then achieving that locked 30fps at native 4k is that much easier.

Given that, microsoft has stated that all its first party games will be 4k native. 

Devs. can use the scorpio's power however they want, since there's no 4k mandate.

you know, for me, it wasn't even the story itself, it was the typical disconnect between the "story" and what you actually do on your own time in an open world game. Im supposed to be freaked out hunting for my missing son, but Im gonna waste a few weeks building houses first?

Skyrim wasnt perfect either, but I felt much more comfortable just exploring and making my own journey than I did in FO4.
I wish some open world games would just abandon the needless story and allow you to truly make your own adventure in the sandbox

I'm excited for the direction MS is going in with the Xbox platform.

Xbox ain't playin no games with PS anymore.

(Pun intended)

I LOVE Fallout 3 and 4 and I LOVE Game of Thrones.

Should I give Skyrim another chance now that they remasterd it? Someone convince me. I tried it a few years back on the 360 and just couldn't get into like i did with Fallout.

Elder Scrolls series>Fallout series

 

[djyoung08]

played skyrim for the first time ever via the remaster

ended up having an 8 hour session

:x :x :x

Skyrim is a phenomenal game. Glad y'all are getting to experience it

So I recently got the new XBONE S, the BF1 edition cuz I wanted COD.

My question is now I see that the new controllers have a 3.5mm jack that sends out game audio and chat.

When I previously had the X1 I was using gaming headsets that were for a 360 so i bought the adapters had them plugged up in my Turtle Beach DSS2.

I want to use my DSS2 for the surround sound although some people have said stereo is ok but after using me new headsets both ways I like the quality of sound of the audio thru the DSS2 vs just stereo headphones.

I'm currently using Plantronics RIG 505 headsets and the DSS2. The headsets come with a single 3.5mm plug but they also come with a splitter that divides mic and headphone sound. I plugged the headphone portion into the DSS2 and the mic into an old adapter that reduces 3.5mm to 2.5mm. That i plugged into the other adapter that came with the Microsoft headset adapter that went from 2.5mm back to 3.5mm lol so i could see my chat bubble was moving when i moved the mic but when my friend got into party chat i didn't hear him and i think he couldn't hear me.

I seen a video that shows how to but it's hella super complicated and requires additional adapters lol

Has anyone done a work around? I wanna say maybe the 3.5mm to 2.5mm is bad so I'm gonna pick up a new one but also I remember I didn't set my chat to headset and speakers. Will i need to turn that on as well or should I say eff it and dump the DSS2?

apologies on the long post lol

Any recommendations for a wireless gaming headset that works for game audio and voice chat on the Xbox one and PS4? I was gonna get the new astro a50s but it seems like they only work on one or the other not both systems.

I don't wanna have to pick up two headsets

 

[djlunchbox]

The Logitech Artemis G633 or G933 work on both. 7.1 surround sound.

Why does TF3 not need a single player?

Does overwatch need a single player? Tf1's a mp game. Tf2 only has a sp because the devs listened to feedback. Which was unfruitful. So with tf3, they can not have a sp and have even more 1st hand data to show why it wasn't included like tf1.

Lastly, most people aren't buying titanfall 2 for the sp.

Overwatch retailed for $40.

I don't think OW is a game where SP would work. Instead, more of those character episodes would be great.

Sorry, PC retailed for $40 for the base. If you wanted Origins Editions (extra skins) it was $60. Consoles didn't get the base version.

Hopefully COD goes on sale for Black Friday cause I'll cop with my gamers club.

Checked out the new mode survival on the division and wow that's exactly what I expected from the game originally. Can't wait for it to come out. Sucks it took them 7 months to get the game right but it's finally in the right direction.
