Call Of Duty: Ghosts Was 1080p For PS4 Graphical Comparisons, Claims Activision

Activision is running to the defense of Infinity Ward as members of the gaming media try to run a damage control campaign after it was revealed that Call of Duty: Ghosts isn't running native 1080p on the PlayStation 4, but was instead relegated to 720p.

[Ultra]

Either damage control or just a political move.

You decide.

[allformats]

Or probably the truth?

[Army_of_Darkness]

Why is every company so scared of Microsoft?! its like 3rd party developers only have the balls to give the middle finger to Sony and Nintendo?? is it because they are less threatening and more humble??
Honestly, this New Gen is getting much more worrisome in that regard. They gotta stop holding back the better hardware for the sake of parity all the time.

[decrypt]

@Army_of_Darkness

Well PC gamers have had to deal with this since the release of PS3 and Xbox 360.

To be honest i think we need more games to be developed the way BF3 was developed. Keep the most powerful platform PC as lead, then have the game stripped down for the lesser platform. That way every platform gets to perform to its max.

If a game is designed with XBone in mind its obvious the more powerful platforms will be limited. This again will hurt the PC more so than the PS4.

[HelpfulGamer]

Update your PS4 to enjoy 1080p Call Of Duty: Ghosts !

[SL1M DADDY]

@decrypt:

PC games do not take a back seat to console games for the same reasons you state. They do so because the PC community does not hold the same market share that the consoles do. When you have millions more people buying console games than PC, then you have developers put their resources into the console version first then the PC last. If the PC community would grow to the same size as the console community, then you would see it the other way around. This was the case years ago and the games on the PC were always better by leaps and bounds. But, the consoles gained popularity and took over the market and the devs have gone where the money is.

[HammadTheBeast]

@slim

PC games market is much bigger than the console markets.

That is why you have unbreakable records set by WoW and LoL.

[Army_of_Darkness]

@decrypt

I agree. Developers should always use the more powerful hardware as their lead then port it to the weaker machines, but the thing is most games on pc aren't as effected in terms of required parity than it is on consoles. The pc versions of multiplat games always had better textures, fps and resolution which never bothered me or really anyone else. It's just when they purposely dumb down a certain console version for equality is when I have an issue.

[BlackTar187]

Hammand thats the point you state 1 MMORPG thats been out for over 10 yrs and LoL which is like a RTS type game.

Give me the sales on the FPS like BF and COD. Do they overtake console sales #'s?

If not then hats the reason. I don't know the #'s so its a question to you.

[Boody-Bandit]

Agreed.
Most likely because it is the truth.

[theoneb]

I will try to explain this the best I can. For all the single console owners there is a big difference on how the PS3 and 360 handled output resolution. The only reason I know this first hand is because i had a 360 early on and got a PS3 later, PS My brand of choice.

For those that dont know every 360 game is upscaled to at least 1080p or 1080i and will display at that resolution no matter what the native resolution is. This was actually a problem for me and many early HDTV owners because some of the vintage models didn't have 720p.

The reason for this problem is that the PS3 didn't upscale the output like the 360. Even if you chose 1080p or 1080i in the screen setup the highest resolution on the back of the box is the only one that would work. This is because the standard for HDTV is 1080i and many sets were made to do only 480i 480p and then skipped to 1080i. It was all software driven what resolution was displayed on the PS3.

I assume that this gen is similar to last gen when it comes to how PS4 and XBOX One handle output resolution. Don't believe what I say? Look at the back of a 360 game then look at the same game box on PS3 everyone of the 360 games will say resolutions of 1080i and higher. Where as the PS3 version will stop at 720p often.

Since its totally software driven, the output resolution, then it makes perfect since how a simple patch can fix what is already coded on the disk. Sometimes for the sake of trial and error some games would display 1080i on PS3 even though that resolution wasn't listed on the back of the box. Granted it looked like crap when it was meant for 720p. Only way to force this to happen on PS3 was to check the box for 1080i and uncheck the box for everything below that. It doesn't work on every title but I remember a copy of Madden doing this.

[daedra]

Haha their is no such thing as truth when your dealing with Sony

[Tangostarr]

@ Daedra

Can you show me on the doll where Sony touched you?

*Points to Sackboy*

On topic: Its beyond me why both versions aren't native 1080P when it comes to COD: Ghost. Look what other launch games are doing and tell me this game is that taxing on these new systems.

[bjmartynhak]

I'm only waiting for the Digital Foundry comparison. Should be fun, regardless of the results.

[cyhm3112]

sadly, even digial foundry is biased, they are helping xbox if you remember the comparison between xbone and ps4 version of BF4

[bjmartynhak]

Well, some people could say the opposite, because the black crush was terrible. The X1 version "popped more" in bright scenes, but was lame on dark ones.

If they did on purpose, I can't really say who they were favoring.

[osprey19]

I wonder how many people who slammed xb1 for this will try to downplay the fact ps4 done the same thing. So much for that overblown story of ps4 cod being superior compared to xb1. I always claimed they both looked the same, now ive been proven right.

[Ju]

But the thing is, it's not. They really reviewed 1080p - this is a retail disk problem, not a software issue. I don't know why this is so hard to understand.

It boggles my mind, that all of a sudden comprehension is simply ignored while we discuss this subject and pure perception becomes an argument based on simple fiction. No matter how one tries to explain the situation. Just to downplay those comparisons even more.

Live with it. The game ran 1080 vs. 720 and the comparison videos were genuine.

No point of arguing if those arguments are getting ignored anyway. Just take it as a fact. I'm getting tired of this. MS police is trying to hard, it's getting ridiculous.

[osprey19]

Tired of this yet u write an essay? Yep, im convinced u dnt care lol
My point is that regardless whether the reviewers did or didn't see it in 1080 ot not. Fact remains that the retail version certainly will not be.
Yhh ut cud be lazy developers expecting an easy ride. But dnt try to convince anyone that it runs on native 1080p 60fps, its been admitted by the cod developers saying it isn't for either platform after they said it was. 😎 Deal with it.

[osprey19]

Or maybe when they found out that the frame rate was awful on ps4 at native 1080p they decided to downgrade the resolution on ps4 so the frame rate can be smooth and not grinding to a halt ay every cut scene.

[Magicite]

cod got shitty framerate even on high end PC. Blame Activision not platforms.

[assdan]

Or maybe they're not lying... If both versions of the game were in 720p, then the ps4 will look SOOO much better in 1080p.

[TBONEJF]

Just getting sick and tired of comparison with these blog sites just enjoy the DAMN GAME for once. jeezes

[theXtReMe1]

Im guessing it was a political move by Activision to help Microsoft save face. Make both games look somewhat identical by limiting the PS4s resolution. Then release a patch at launch to take the PS4 version back to native 1080p... So nobody knows the difference.

The problem, Activision got caught with their hand in the cookie jar and Microsoft was outed. My guess is, it was done by Infinity Wards own people to out Microsofts controlling ways. Show Microsoft that it doesnt matter how much damage control they do, the truth will always come out.
After all, if you were the developer... Wouldnt you want the best of your work to be seen and shown off, without compromise? Not limited by an outside source, who has nothing to do with the project?

Regardless, the PS4 is still getting the best console version of the game and no amount of marketing or NDAs are going to change that.

[Sarcasm]

It's very fishy how they are claiming it's 1080p in the comparisons when it's been confirmed it was 720p. Man, that would be another low for Activision.

[LordMaim]

Or the error was in the final version that went gold, but not present in the review code that was demonstrated prior to going gold. It isn't a coincidence that people said the PS4 version looked better, and it isn't a conspiracy.

[PoSTedUP]

OR... jk, idk whats going on. 'just came here to say **** activision and cod ...that is all.

[LordDhampire]

No, some of the comparisons I saw you could clearly see it was 1080 vs 720 then other sites showed no difference...

So probably just everyone on different copies some probably bought actual retail copies since it released way early if the had a dev console, while some probably got supplied actual review version

[wsoutlaw87]

digital foundry said in their article about this that their copy was 720 for sp and 1080 mp

[Sarcasm]

^LordDhampire

Maybe you saw the multiplayer comparison because it was still 1080p on the PS4. And you could be right, maybe some of them got review copies and some of them got retail copies.

Either way, the whole thing is fubar.

[Ju]

@wsoutlaw87 Yes, but they explicitly stated they did the face-off with the retail copy. And it hasn't been released yet. I guess it will release with the patched version? Makes me wonder why EG felt the need to actually make news out of it. Obviously they reported this to Activision right away and both, Activision and Sony responded promptly.

[obliteratorFTW]

Yes. This was definitely done deliberately. They tried to minimize the differences. There is a huge difference between 720p and 1080p. Strange things happening in this new gen while performing comparisons. DF botching bf4 comparisons, now IW failed at showing the real ps4 1080p version. Sounds very fishy. This is definitely not a coincidence.

[dsswoosh]

We aren't comparing 720p and 1080p though are we.

Its not a simple case of resolution switching to see the differences like we can do on PC's.

We are taking hardware upscaled 720p vs 1080p that has been software upscaled.

Huge difference.

[Bigpappy]

Wasn't the comparison done by Digital Foundry? That would make them seem very unreliable if this were the case. No?

PS4 getting the best version still to be determine. Unless of course 1080p = best version.

[Sarcasm]

No, DF hasn't done a comparison yet for the PS4 vs Xbox One.

The comparisons were done by other various sites, one being IGN.

[dumahim]

I saw IGN compare the two next gen. I watched both on the IGN video and the youtube version and I couldn't see a difference in resolution.

The only stuff I saw from Digital Foundry was them comparing the 360 and PS3 version and then some screenshots showing the difference between pre-patch PS4 and PC running 1080p max settings.

[Ju]

Oh please. It's clearly sharper. Sure you can't see a difference watching low bandwidth feed with no 1080 non-full screen video. But the edges, details in fine polygons, shimmering due to the upscaler is quite apparent in IGNs video if watched at native 1080.

[DaGR8JIBRALTAR]

[sAVAge_bEaST]

This all needs to stop, this is not what gaming is about,,... The drama is over shadowing the games, something Microsoft "claims" to be all about..

Casual Confirmed. the xbone 720p identified.

[hakeem0996]

You people and your conspiracy theories .All they did was make every reviewers and fanboys look stupid .two identical game both at 720p, but just the mention that one was 1080p was enough to make everyone favor the 1080p .now that its revealed that they were both the same resolution everyone is trying to justify being full of shit . Remember when the guy said that he dared anyone to find a difference between the two versions .it's because he knew they were both the same resolution .I STOP BEING A FAN OF CALL OF DUTY A LONG TIME AGO BUT JUST FOR THAT I MIGHT BUY THIS GAME .PRICELESS

[FiLTHY ESKiMO]

Reminds me of this article... which people laughed at, actually.

[Guelly0209]

So much flipping flopping, I don't care anymore, I'm gonna play it regardless

[Onehandband1t]

Don't know about you guys but Native 1080p vs Native 720p, 1080p having more pixels than 720p. After looking at the video, the screen pixel fill rate on both are the same. Meaning 720p even upscaled to 1080p will have less viewable pixels ie there should be more on screen at 1080 vs 720. This is not the case from the video so I believe they are both running at 720p

[Sarcasm]

It has been confirmed by Quaz51 (the guy who basically pioneered the whole pixel counting thing back when the PS3 and 360 in the younger years) that the footage was 720p on PS4 vs 720p on Xbox One for the single player. He also confirmed the multiplayer was native 1080p on the PS4.

That's why some reviewers claim they "couldn't tell a difference" because there was no difference since the PS4 was outputting the same resolution.

The problem is that they have already made the reviews and is spreading false pre-tense that there is no difference between 720p and 1080p when in fact there is a huge difference. See below photo for example.

720p -> 900p -> 1080p

http://cdn2.dualshockers.co...

[obliteratorFTW]

Sorry bro, you are using too much sense and facts for fanboys to understand. They will resort to the same argument 720>>>1080p just because their precious system is unable to achieve 1080p in games it's competitor is achieving.
I would have really liked to know their respones if ps4 was rendering 720p and x1 1080p.

[nosferatuzodd]

this is why i said the industry is very corrupt and its all because of Microsoft back in the day when Sega and Nintendo was going at it none of this buying out developers bullshit was around giving polygon 75000 to dog the ps brand making the games on par because you don't want everyone know you're over price system is weaker all the so called bias game journalist from ign to game informer to polygon all on MS payroll play fare are go home

[gamertk421]

Wow

[MASTER_RAIDEN]

Really unbelievable. then i remember its COD were talking about here and i have to admit, i dont know how i didnt see it coming.

[Avernus]

doesn't matter to me personally (lolcod) but Activision is making this a little messy. They said the game wasn't running 1080p earlier, but now they're saying it was running at that resolution for video comparisons?

Why didn't they say this the same time they said they're going to patch it? You know, something like "We're releasing the patch to make the game run 1080p and have a smoother frame rate, but note that the game DID run 1080 for the comparison videos" Instead we get this, which looks like they're covering up... but w/e. CoD peeps are going to enjoy the game at a smooth frame rate and resolution come launch.

[SonyAddict]

I doubt anyone will enjoy it come launch!.

[badkolo]

you guys never learn, back on the attack, you just want more and more bad news like today dont ya, wobble time . figured some of ya would of humnled down after todays mess

[LordMaim]

What mess are you talking about? All that happened was that people went nuts over a resolution issue that turned out to be a non-issue, and the PS4 version still looks better. That's a good thing.

[badkolo]

ps4's are dying everywere, watching 2 on twitch, both ign's died, a few on gaf, more on youtube, launch games with one being given very low scores , killzone low scores over all, you can paint it all pretty but today was a disaster yet man y of you are back to trolling.

[LordMaim]

Wow, is that ever an exaggeration. Considering millions of systems have been shipped, there are going to be a couple that fail. That's why there are warranties to protect the customer from normal hardware failure. Killzone currently has a 74 on metacritic, dragged down by a 5/10 by Polygon which also tanked The Last of Us reviews so that should give you an indication of their bias. I don't know why you think this is a "disaster" but you're dramatically overreacting. Even if Killzone doesn't turn your crank, literally ALL of the multiplatform games look and perform better on PS4 than the Xbox One, and games like Assassin's Creed IV have exclusive content that isn't available on any other platform. How does that translate into a disaster? Put the green flag away.

[ziggurcat]

@ badkolo:

you mean issues that in all likelihood are a result of a bad HMDI cable? low scores from known MS shills who repeatedly (and purposefully) give sony titles bad reviews?

you're getting worse than greenpowerz/morepowerofgreen.

[MainstreamGamer]

Are you done crying yet? Are you xbox fans still mad that you have to run defense these past few months?

[MysticStrummer]

"ps4's are dying everywere"

So much fail here…

If PS4s were dying everywhere, the failure rate would be much higher that 0.2%.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

Man why do people keep lining their pockets?

[swishersweets20031]

[Soldierone]

Activision is probably just standing their going "uhh Microsoft, want to step in here? Any time now? Tell them its your fault...."

Thats what happens when you accept money when you don't need it.

[ELpork]

Whhoo? ccaarreess?

[blahblah123]

This is actually pretty phony.

Keep arguing over frame-rates and resolutions and you'll forget the biggest killer in CoD has always been and always will be lag. You know it and I know it. Juggernaut, Martyrdom and OMA are but old memories. The weeks of 1887 dual wield nuke madness is long forgotten. Nobody remembers how Modern Warfare 3 was broken in every corner from day one. 720p is just a red herring. Not a single game review ever mentions it but within the first half hour of playing any new CoD from Treyarch or IW, you will meet your maker and it's name is lag.

[Sevir]

If you are playing Ghost, you are WRONG, IW is lazy, no matter the platform they've made a muck of the industry along with Activision's stamp of approval of the yearly bastardisation as the COD brand gets progressively worst each release. As it stands, no matter what version you get, it sucks on PS4 it sucks on XBO and it tanks on current gen and PC, 1080p or not...

Gamers need to give Activision, IW, Raven Software, Neversoft and Treyarch the finger.

Battlefield and Killzone are both far better shooters and it shows

[worldwidegaming]

SNAFU indeed! Way better to just give up with these guys. You had a good run COD...time for your dirt nap!

[Onehandband1t]

Well said sir ;)

[DaGR8JIBRALTAR]

you can tell em this all day..it has yet to register. If you speak with your money,THEY WILL LISTEN!

[ELpork]

....or maybe they just like COD? I prefer BF Because I like to sharp shoot, but IDK that being this mad at a developer catering to a, very clearly hungry, audience is healthy.

[calidredz]

You know I have always gotten both systems and even Nintendo until the GC disappointed me. I have always leaned toward MS just because the controller is perfect for my big hands ( I am 6 ft 7). This Launch is my first PS4 as my main console launch while I am still getting the XBOX sooner or later. I just want to say reading these comments really makes me embarrassed to be in the Sony camp, you guys really should relax. These are only games the companies want our money and we give it to them, why all the extra rivalry I just do not get.

[Ashby_JC]

it's weird that I and others feel the same way. it shouldn't matter..but it does.

it's like dang I have ps4 but I dint want to be associated with the rabid Sony loyalist. it's cool to live your system of choice.

but there are some...not all that take it way to far and way to serious.

[MasterCornholio]

We can argue all they whether Microsoft paid IW to gimp the PS4 version but if there's one thing that we can all agree on,

Is that infinity wards are real dicks

[chaosx]

Don't be fooled ,this is nothing but a way of trying to get at Respawn…. push for PS4 as the preferred console by retro fitting 1080p on Ghosts , to try and ham string what could very well be the futures CoD killer… Titanfall.
This was all a tactical business plan by Activision to try destroy Respawn and show Microsoft what power they wield in the gaming world…… in my opinion, barring in mind my wife always says I'm wrong.

[Ashby_JC]

you forgot the... /s for sarcasm...

...wait...you were serious?!

[Ashby_JC]

honestly..I read the article and I'm confused.

I have never in all my 25 years of gaming seen so much back and forth about resolutions.

I think I'm going to just avoid anything regarding..comparisons...resol utions...yadda yadda.

I'll just look for informative gaming news. about what's really important...to me at least (having fun with games)

[quenomamen]

Do you guys need anymore reasons to stop buying this godamn turd every year ?
I jumped ship at Wack Ops 1, never looked back. You don't celebrate mediocrity.

[cyhm3112]

The problem with all these is most people don't understand about PC hardware, if you have some basic understandings of pc hardware like memory bandwidth, GPU cores, CPU, etc,.. you will know that PS4 is definitely on another class above xbone. But sadly most people are not educated on this. That's why MS can make excuses and manipulate people into buying their inferior console, oh wait, it is not even a console, MS feels shameful to call it a conosole, they call it a multimedia hub!! They deliberately lower the power of xbone to make it less like a console but more like a hub in the living room.

[DJ]

This is going into the history books. I thought the crap MS pulled last generation was odd, but this might be a whole new level.

[Godhimself_In_3d]

Wow not to go with the conspiracy theory here but i got to admit this is fishy. The game has been confirmed to run @1080p for a while on ps4 and this comes to light right after the head 2 head. So the patch comes after the reviews go live seems just to convenient for me. Ima go with my gut they gimped the ps4 for reviews and they where gonna just sneak in back in after the fact. This is clearly a shady practice going on here. The battlefield 4 botch up that they posted and never fixed now this lol. Xbox has a rep as being the console for shooters. They have no exclusive shooter at launch. And both high profile shooters get botched in there head 2 head reviews foul play here. Also most of that video was from single player smh

[BobBelcher]

I'm not surprised by this. Truth always comes out about products just days before they're released. God knows what's going to be revealed about the X1.

[NoLongerHereCBA]

If my eyes didn't deceive me then the Single Player really looked the same.

People should stop with immediately saying MS is doing this and that. Stop with the stupid conspiracy theories, it's making you look foolish and childish. People could also say that Sony messed up the settings in the Xbox One version (color blind mode), which made the colours all funky and ugly, which was much more noticeable than a pixel difference (in the IGN vid)

See how stupid that sounds?

Just wait and see what happens and the play the game(s) for fun.

[PsylentKiller]

The conspiracy theories seem to point mainly in the direction of the XB1, like MS planned this. What if it was Sony that was the mastermind? What if Sony was paying Activision to push 1080p no matter the cost (fps)? Then, at the end, Infinity Ward couldn't go through with it. They couldn't allow the framerate to drop below 60, it's like their trademark,

I'm really hoping that the blame falls on IW and that Sony or Microsoft weren't behind this. If this is solely on IW, then this may very well be the Year of Battlefield.

[KingDadXVI]

How is this a political move by MS. It is quite obvious that this was a move by Sony supported who have been hammered with review after review stating that the 1080p version for PS4 was no better than the Xbox One's upscaled version and the PS4 version has frame rate issues to boot.

So how does it make sense that MS would come up with this ridiculous story.

I will tell you right now what has happened. Sony saw a chance to get a win over MS by pushing to have the game 1080p even though the game disks have already been published requiring a patch before playing. Infinity Ward and Activision provided reviewers with a copy of the updated 1080p game to reviewers as they have stated.

If anyone is responsible for this mess it is Sony and their marketing department pushing for 1080p on a game that was not ready for it. Well it backfired on them and now the Sony Defense Force are out in force and trying to pin this all on MS?

If what people are saying is true that both Activision and Infinity Ward are lying (which makes them open to a class action law suit that would not set them selves up for) then that is even worse looking for the Sony and the PS4. It means that the PS4 can't even run at 720p with out dropping its frame rate.

Sony defenders you get to pick from a game that was reviewed that was outputting 1080p native with frame rate issues or even worse it was outputting 720p native with frame rate issues.

[Objective]

Thanks for the only perspective that makes some sense here. Couldn't see the logic in the other theories presented here.

[DoubleM70]

Hmmm

[ironmonkey]

Might just skip on cod for the first time. Bf4 and kz are a yes still.

[GraveLord]

Doesn't make sense.....so if IGN didn't review the retail copy, what did they review? STOP WITH THE POLITICAL BULLSHIT.

I'm glad I didn't buy Call of Duty this year.

[ziggurcat]

well, well, well... don't the people complaining/mocking the "pixel counters" yesterday look like the fools they are now...

[KingDadXVI]

What are you talking about? The pixel counters have no clue what they are doing.

Pixel counting is only applicable if you have access to the raw stream directly from the console. A video can be affected by the capture process itself and with out the details of the actual capture you cannot determine from a pixel count. You also do not know what other processing took place after the capture when it was posted to websites. Are they using compression for streaming? What kind of compression algorithm? What data in the file is being compressed? The only way to prove the truth by pixel count would be to have complete access to the procedure used.

On top of that the poster on NeoGaf fully admits that he is new at pixel counting and no expert at it. He really does not understand the algorithms that are applied to render the image. His source is images that he has gotten from websites with no knowledge of how those images were processed. His opinions while using a logical approach are incorrect in the simple fact that he does not know what intervening processing was done to the images he is getting off of the internet. To make his analysis even more unreliable he is then running them through his own computer onto a monitor that will run at multiple resolutions. When he takes the image and processes it though his own software on his pc and his pc streams that image to his monitor the video card or on board graphics interpolate the data to adjust the file to appear at the resolution that he has chosen for his monitor to display at.

This guy is just a gamer not a video engineer where as the people that developed the game know what resolution their code is running at.

You cannot do a pixel count on images that have been processed by secondary hardware or software.

In Activision's statement they say that it was rendered at 1080p which I personally believe. The only way to put this to bed to everyone's satisfaction would be for them to do a pixel count on the direct stream from the PS4.

[ziggurcat]

@ kingdad:

i'm referring to the people mocking those who were discussing the difference between the two versions because the PS4 version was 1080p, claiming that they were only seeing a difference because they're sony fanboys...

the xbox fanboys called them "pixel counters", so i wasn't actually talking about actual pixel counting.

[GentlemenRUs]

M$, Gimping PS4 games since CoD...

[feraldrgn]

Coming from Activision, when people who can pixel count say otherwise, not sure whether to believe Activision, or if they're just trying to cover their arses.

[MCTJim]

I thought this was all debunked yesterday? PS4 and X1 side by side..PS4 was 1080 and X1 was 720 upscaled. IGN posted this before things got out of control, but I guess if you act quickly people dont read...did I miss something?

[Godmars290]

What is going on here? Was the PS4 version 1080p or not? If it wasn't why wasn't this pointed out sooner? If the original carp was true, then what exactly is Activision trying to achieve?
