So 720p on both? Kind of sad
From what I can tell the story is now that they will both be identical, whatever the res/fps end up being. The internet reporting leading up to this launch has been embarrassing.

No. They're planning on going higher. You could read the link before crying.

I read it, and it says the Xbox ONE retail version will run at 720p according to an EA representative, if they are looking for parity then 720p for both machines.
Obviously it's a rumour and nothing is confirmed yet, but some people who played both versions at the Eurogamer Expo sayed the game is not looking good on consoles (blurry textures, average lighting, low resolution, etc...)

This game should have already gone gold, nobody should be expecting any changes from now.
I dont think next-gen versions will go for another 2-3 weeks. 720 could be even later than PS4
Both will have huge day one patches no doubt
What your saying is in contradiction to what you quote in your own post.
It's not confirmed that the XB1 is going to run at 720p, only that it was currently at the show, may or may not be final resolution. (It seems the PS4 was also running at that resolution)
Also they say that they are _aiming_ for both consoles to be the same resolution, which means they may not end up that way but they will try.
If that is their aim and your saying XB1 is definitely going to be 720p at 60fps, it seems the PS4 is going to struggle to hit 720p at 60fps. Going by your logic.
So EA is "aiming" to have the same frame rate and resolution. Will parity be enforced or will EA's "aim" not be so accurate ?
I find the obsession with numbers to be very sad.
It would be so much easier to advertise 1080p and not mention the lower settings but DICE refuses which is great. If you really care: get a PC and stop trying to demand a uglier highres console version.
And the notion that versions are the same because of resolution/fps.. omg. Maybe they are or are not: potentially identical resolution dosent tell it

And the X1 version with better audio and/or AI.
Does AI scale ? By scale I mean that the devs will only have to throw cycles at it and without a lot of fuss get more of something in the game.
Will the PC version by definition have better AI than the console versions ? I would have thought if you wanted to adjust AI to take advantage of 'more' hardware the programmers would have to go out of their way to do so. In theory higher resolutions and better effects scale with the hardware but I always considered AI to be a gameplay thing and therefore not something you can just throw more cycles at.
Of course there is no reason one way or the other to think that the AI would be better with XB1 but audio would seem to be an easier resource to make use of.
Now that i think about it does audio scale ??

62% of the time the AI character in the PS4 version will turn right.
50% of the time the AI will turn right in the Xbone version, making it less predictable and more advanced.

I don't think so, we are almost 2 months from the launch. 1 month before launch is a good time for going gold.
Surely with the xb1 version 60% of the time it will just turn around and head in the opposite direction

Game is released on Oct. 29th, Sony is already hyping a special early PS4 release. Now if you want to believe that the XB1 version is so broken that they're going to have to do an emergency repair on it in the next couple of weeks then fine, for everyone else the game is done.

On the PS4 the AI will lose all it's personal information to hackers 60% of the time 100% of the time.
On the PS4 they will pick 1 random number and use that for all random numbers until a security update. They will also remove features in the same update.
Seriously, can we get back on topic and stop poking fun of history on the prior platforms?
