Battlefield 4 official discussion/thread. [PS4,XO,PS3,X360]

BF4 MP doesn't look so hot, maybe the idea of 64 players, levolution and big maps are really dragging the graphics down but this is what I call "current gen uprezzed" graphically. Hope the SP would deliver in the visual department.

Ummm...who is that saying it? I don't think that can be possible. Is this just a randomn guess?

It could easily be possible, especially if PS4 is higher resolution than Xbox One. I could see it having better image quality across the board. BF keeps the image quality and framerate pretty much the same from single to multiplayer.
 
A heavily scripted, tight environment SP can't look worse than the MP. DICE Must have put much more effects into the SP to make it look as good as possible. IMO, the GPU difference in the machines can't be that high. I think its just a "Fun" tweet, a joke. THats why I asked who is that person that ppl are taking his word seriously.

Thats what I think. I don't think a focussed linear SP on Xboxone can look worse than a 64 player MP set in a huge map on the ps4 in BF4. Maybe a clearer picture due to a higer resolution, but still, that can't make it look "better" than the SP. "Better" is subjective, though.

If you remove the ESRam from the argument and are stuck with 'just' 68Gb of bandwidth for everything... It's highly unlikely but with the way things are going at the moment, not improbable...
 
If they're trying to reproduce the carrier destruction scene as faithfully as possible then yeah, I could see this happening. Especially if they need to drop to 900p on PS4 to achieve that.

If it's 900p on PS4 and say 720p on Xbox One, I could see how he'd think the PS4 multiplayer could look better than the Xbox One single-player, especially if he demoed the two on a computer monitor up close. Could be other image quality factors as well. The interest will be when we can directly compare the two to see how different it really is.
 
During sunday night football last night they showed a new battlefield 4 commercial for xbox one. It looked quite good and at the bottom of the screen it said " actual xbox one footage".
Jack frags could be refering to the xbox one single player looking better.
It actually makes the most since for sp to look better than mp.
Plus Dice said that systems with support for directx11 would have an advantage because of something about the frame buffer. Who knows? I think its more likely that both next gen versions will be 900p though. There is not that
big of a power difference between the two systems.
 
I guess the only thing he could compare aside AA/resolution is how the PS4/XONE versions correspond to PC quality settings. If SP is medium so is MP probably..

It appears he only has access to PS4 MP and XB1 SP - if the SP portion was better looking than the MP portion it wouldn't raise any eyebrows as that is was you'd expect.

The fact it's causing such a stir would seem to indicate the opposite!

Power differences could just be one part of the issue. Development environment, tools, and whether or not some devs are struggling to get the ESRAM up to par with the PS4's GDDR5, all could factor into it. We have heard that the ESRAM is causing some issues with launch games but that it should get better.

That said, 720p vs 900p seems possible given the power differences alone.
