Wolfenstein: The New Order Will Run at 1080p 60FPS on Xbox One

OnlySP: A Bethesda representative has confirmed to OnlySP that the game will run at 1080p/60fps on the Xbox One.

Wingsfan243719d ago

Glad they confirmed this quickly before all these debates about the resolution started up instead of talking about the actual game.

Magicite3719d ago

well...its not like this would look like next-gen game anyway.

ramiuk13719d ago

exactly,it looks ugly so no wonder its 1080p.
but i hope its the start of MS games being 1080p or as close as possible

abstractel3719d ago (Edited 3719d ago )

I completely agree, the only real next-gen looking gaming on the XboxOne is Ryse, and that was quite the looker. 900p didn't seem so bad in the Gamersyde videos.

Wolfenstein is a high-res PS3/Xbox360 game. BF4, Ryse, Killzone Shadowfall all look a big step up. XboxOne's next biggest looker to me looks to be Quantum Break.

I would not gloat and be satisfied about Wolfenstein being at 1080p 60fps because it doesn't look any better than last gen's PC ports of FPS shooters.

Edit: But really, factually the PS4 is stronger and it will and already is showing in both exclusive and third party games. If that's ok with you, that's fine. I will end up getting the XboxOne for a strong exclusive first party title like if Quantum Break turns out as good as it looks to be. But deal with the fact that XboxOne is technologically (minus the kinect) inferior.

dcj05243719d ago

In your opinion. Looks fantastic to me.

UnHoly_One3719d ago

We can't have any good news about Xbox, can we???

Ryse looks great, but that's not good enough because it's not 1080p.

Then when something is 1080p, it's because the game doesn't look good in the first place.

Can't we just give this a rest? Does everything have to be a damn argument on this site?

thezeldadoth3719d ago

man these comments are so predictable. you don't even have to click the article yet to know that sony fanboys are gonna be on here claiming its only because the graphics are shit. you guys are so passionate about your non-innovative mid range pseudo PC.

DoubleM703719d ago

I laugh at you now it doesn't look next gen. Make up your mind fanboy. shut the hell up and play games.

BallsEye3719d ago

Funny how people say XO is so weak it can't run COD better than 720p but Ryse which is superior visually to any other next-gen game runs in 900p high AA and example in article in 1080p/60. Both games look better and run better than COD. Prooves it's up to dev and their engine.

mr2333719d ago

Wow, what a waste of a bubble.

CrowbaitBob3719d ago

Yep, totally confirmed my assumption about PS4 fanboys. I knew the inevitable response to a 1080p/60fps game on Xbox One would be something along the lines of "still looks like crap" or "that's because it looks like crap."

dantesparda3719d ago

Here we go with the parity bs.

cozomel3719d ago (Edited 3719d ago )

@zeldadoth

And you are so passionate about your trolling. Seriously guy give it rest, you're obsessed with Sony fanboys. Get off their you know what

@ballseye

COD runs at 60fps, Ryse doesnt and has alot of fast action going on screen, while Ryse dips into the teens frequently and is much slower paced game. Also its made by Crytek, who are known for pushing graphics. So i'd say the are about even on a performance level. And what it really proves is that the PS4 is a more powerful system. Otherwise why would the devs choose to make it 720p on the X1 but 1080p on the PS4? Makes no sense. But then again, fanboys arent known for their sense.

To the rest of the fanboys, stop being so defensive. A game that looks like this better run at 1080p/60fps on X1, otherwise you'd have more things to worry about

starchild3719d ago (Edited 3719d ago )

Well if you don't consider this game to have good graphics, the PS4 doesn't have any graphically demanding games that run at 1080p AND 60fps either. COD Ghosts and Wolfenstein are about the only games that do.

Mr-Dude3719d ago

Well i'm a Sony fan, and I am happy the X1 is getting 1080P @6FPS. Now the next gen can start, and we can really see the difference between the games. BTW no Sony fan ever said the X1 couldn't archieve this...

CrowbaitBob3719d ago

Agreed Mr-Dude.

Fan =/= Fanboy

Flames763719d ago

Take off them fanboy glasses wolfenstein look sbetter than any game on the PS4 right now

Akuma073719d ago

Agreed.

The graphics in this game look horrible. I have thought this ever since the first trailer was revealed.

Anyone who says it looks great are either talking out their ass, or blind.

Ashunderfire863719d ago

Call of Duty Ghost looks uglier than this, yet that couldn't run 1080p on Xbox One. This is a longer FPS shooter with better graphics all in 1080p 60FPS, so be happy man.

DaGR8JIBRALTAR3719d ago

YodaCracker3718d ago

How come when PS3 games ran worse than the 360 versions, it was because developers were "lazy", but when XB1 games run worse it's the console's fault?

MadLad3718d ago

ElderGeek; a very reputable, if small, site said they felt it was one of the most next-gen looking games so far. Maybe it is needed to be seen first hand.

UnholyLight3718d ago

Wait a minute, let me get this straight. Some good news about Xbox One being able to run 1080p @ 60FPS and there are STILL people downplaying this.

Where could this god forsaken place be that I am seeing this negativity?!

Oh right, the internet,

carry on

deSSy27243718d ago (Edited 3718d ago )

On PS4 its also 1080p. I mean, your logic is "it looks ugly, so no wonder its 1080p". So, by that logic, PS4 should render this game in 1440p or 4K or whatever?

Cmon!!!!

The game is 1080p on both PS4 and X1 BUT, on PS4 it will look better because "resolution" is not the same thing as "graphics settings/details".

You want more exapmles? Just compare 1080p + very high graphics settings to 1080p + very low graphics settings (its just an example on PC).

Learn the difference already!

Gamer19823718d ago

The problem wasn't running 1080p it was the fact it ps4 was doing it and it wasn't. If both do it then its not really a problem. Everybody wins.. To run at 1080p 60fps though somethings gotta have taken a hit somewhere graphically especially this being an FPS. Not even PS4 can run a top looking FPS 1080p 60FPS.. This is not a shot at the Xbox One but more of a shot at how bad this game is going to look..

abzdine3718d ago (Edited 3718d ago )

is it 4K on PS4 and PC then? :D

joke aside, looking forward to seeing the final product and judge from there and tbh this game is far from impressive looking.

insomnium23718d ago (Edited 3718d ago )

@unholy

Yes you can have good news on XBone. I think people are quick to say this game is not pretty to begin with is because we all know how quickly this site can turn into s*it like it was back in 2006-2009. Some clown is bound to say "see these consoles are equal in power I told ya" or something.

To tell nothing but the honest truth with no shots fired if this game runs equal on both platforms and looks the same it will not be very taxing to the PS4's hardware to run it.

It might be a decicion of the dev to make the versions equal. MS might have helped the dev to make that call. The dev might've fealt a little lazy not to take advantage of PS4 hw. There's no way to know.

SilentNegotiator3718d ago

LOL, one multiplat manages 1080p60fps on Xbone and PS4 and suddenly Xbone is just as powerful as Ps4, eh? Oh the sad delusion.

Developers are going to keep pushing the envelope. The disparity of the two systems isn't going away because one game is uncomplicated enough to manage 1080p60fps on both systems.

Guess that sdk really helped .... if this is a continuing trend ps fanboys might have to find a new thing to rant about.

Gazondaily3719d ago (Edited 3719d ago )

To be honest, its based on an old engine and doesnt really flex those next gen muscles as far as I can see.

If there is parity in something like The Division then yeah, that would be a strong argument in favour of the X1 and resolution debates etc.

AnEwGuY3719d ago (Edited 3719d ago )

@ Septic..

First of all, iD Tech5 isn't an "old engine"; it was brand new, mid-way through last gen, and has hardly been developed. All signs point toward future Bethesda games using the engine, and their games are always huge, open world experiences. Plus, iD's engines always have a long life, and are very adaptable.

Second, your "point" is moot, since there have been some games made on "old engines" that were sub 1080p on the X1, like Ghosts and Thief.

sobotz3719d ago (Edited 3719d ago )

@Septic

Titanfall is running on a 2004 year-old engine but still not confirmed 1080p or 900p on Xbox One.

So it's a good thing that Wolfenstein can runs on 1080p 60fps

Ausbo3719d ago

@septic I agree. But its not always the engine. But also the tools they have to work with. As far as division is concerned, I'd be surprised if either console versions run at 1080p with those amazing visuals.

nicksetzer13719d ago

@septic Doesn't change that less intensive games have run at both lower res and framerates before the sdk, also i said IF, but i guess even the thought of anything positive about xb1 is unfathomable to you...

scott1823719d ago (Edited 3719d ago )

The game runs at the same res and fps on the ps3/360 as next gen consoles do... We have seen parity in multiplats before, but not very often.

I feel that resolution and fps do matter and I'm glad that both next gen systems can run this at the same resolution/fps. But I think we are seeing now that the "play the games, not the resolution" bit was bull crap all along. I hope for continued parity in the future now that we know how everyone really feels.

cozomel3719d ago

@nicksetzer

You're making assumptions, you dont know if this is running of the new SDK. And even if the X1/Ps4 version both run at 1080/60 it doesnt mean they are equal, one could still have lower res textures, effects, shadows, be missing things, one could hold its framerate better. Dont count your chickens yet.

nicksetzer13719d ago

Actually i do, the new sdk is being used by devs already ... so what makes you think this is the only dev without access to it?

Anonagrog3718d ago

@Septic,

The engine can be changed as necessary; they do have access to the code-base. It isn't some rigid thing set in cement that needs re-writing from scratch every few years.

Utalkin2me3718d ago

@AnEwGuY

1080p and 60 fps is not a major feat on the xbox1. The feat is doing that and still making it look just as good as the PS4 version.

Gamer19823718d ago

nothing to do with sdk see when making a game you only have so much power look at it like a game. You have so much GP (game points) PS4 has more than Xbone, 1080p costs GP, 60FPS costs GP, MSAA 4X costs GP and so on.. To get 1080p 60FPS this game will have had to take a hit somewhere.. As the Xbox has less power than the PS4 past games have proved that you cannot ignore the facts here in fact this could be just like last generation where games were purposely nuked to look the same on both systems..

Xsilver3719d ago

this would be something to brag about if it was the Witcher 3 a game that actually pushes the next gen consoles :/ because right now both Witcher 3 and Watch Dog are rumored to not be 1080p on the Xone so Wolfenstien doesn't change anything and for some reason i think you know that.

fr0sty3719d ago (Edited 3719d ago )

You can run mario 64 at 1080p... it won't matter because you're still using blocky n64 models and textures. If a game doesn't push the next gen envelope and can run at 1080p60, it isn't that impressive. Wipeout HD ran at 1080p60 on PS3 (with a few shortcuts, but the point is still valid) with only 256mb of VRAM and a GPU that was outdated before it came out by a good bit.

So, not exactly silly. This game was a current gen game ported to next gen, not much different than tomb raider. This isn't like a game of the visual quality of The Order: 1886 or DriveClub running at full visual parity on both systems.

The fanboys are out on this one... bunch of disagrees to posts like this, without anybody actually providing a solid argument as to why. I'd like to see a counter point from someone who actually knows what they're talking about. Are you out there?

fr0sty3719d ago

Ok, I did some digging, and apparently I'm wrong. There is a game out there that is better on Xbox than PS4. The Order: 1886 has an unannounced Xbox One port in the works, with one super-cool exclusive graphical feature PS4 doesn't have...

Clunkyd3719d ago

does this mean that ps4 version will run at 120fps? :P

torchic3718d ago

didn't the PS4 version of CoD:G run at +60fps and so brought framerate problems? :D

but your point is valid. if this game can run 1080p60fps on X1 then surely it must easily do higher framerates & resolutions on PS4

PS4 is more powerful that X1 and will always output better performance & visuals on the same game #dealwithit Xbox fans, no need to be so sour :(

Utalkin2me3718d ago

No it means the PS4 version will better textures and such.

insomnium23718d ago

Either it will look better or run better. Always*. No point arguing this.

insomnium23718d ago

Oh dear. Didn't you know of that Kinect game that is already 1080p? What a disgusting little troll you are.

How about a game like Plants vs zombies? That should hit 1080p 60fps easily. Hell it should hit 4kp and 240fps on XBone. Is that something to brag about? Seriously?

RealtorMDandDC3718d ago

Is it upscale? or Native? The article just stated 1080p/60fps.

If it's Native, that's good news for Xbox One owners. And shows there is hope.

People complain that FPS and Resolution does not matter. It does this is a new generation of gaming. It's 2014 for the love of all things good.

If a mobile device can output/input in 1080p and higher. I want my $400 plus game console to be able to do the same when it comes to games. That's not asking for too much.

Many are making excusing stating it does not matter, but it does. What's the point of next generation gaming when you're not getting next generation fluidity and visuals (resolution)

Yes, I agree game-play matters, but a great frame-rate and high resolution helps to enhance the level of immersion. The holy grail of gaming is all about "immersion"

Games are all about immersion. The more you can do to enhance that level of immersion helps to enhance the overall gaming experience.

There's a reason why imax exist. The audio and visual at a imax theater enhances the level of the movie-goers experience. For example Gravity & Superman where great movies to see at imax.

Why can't this be said for games. I want a developer to do the best they can, utilizing all tools available to give me a maximum immersion experience.

Also if resolution did not matter when we go to the movie theater today it would still be in black and white and silent.

We see if HD if you have 20/20 vision, we buy Blu-rays and retina displays for HD. Why is it so different for console gaming?

Even the PC guys has harped and beat the drum that PC can do 5900x8080 resolution and they can play their games at 500fps. (sarcasm)

But when it comes to a next gen console gaming in 2014 that cost over $400 for price of admission frame rates and resolution does not matter all of a sudden.

Resolution and frame-rate should matter in this new generation of console gaming, because if it did not we should all feel bamboozled. And we should of just stuck with our PS3's and 360's for a sub-HD gaming experience.

What would be the point of going next gen gaming when the past gen of gaming consoles can provide a sub-HD gaming at 30-60fps gaming experience.

Redlogic3718d ago

Out of curiosity, did they state if it's native 1080p or up scaled?

IcarusOne3718d ago

Is this all that the next gen is going to be? Debates and articles about pixels and frames per second?

Yawn.

IcarusOne3717d ago

It's a shame we don't care about fun anymore...

TheSaint3718d ago

I wonder if this'll do the classic MS flip flop?

DeadlyFire3718d ago (Edited 3718d ago )

Even so. Running this game at 1080p on both platforms means one of two things.

A. They chose the weaker platform as the base platform for the game so graphics and framerate parity wouldn't be an issue on the platform
or
B. They chose to downscale XB1 version's graphics to keep it at 1080p with 60 fps.

Looks pretty decent to me. Could have looked better maybe, but I can live with its looks. Considering Wolfenstien 3D graphics could have been the option for this game and I would still consider it.

ITPython3718d ago

Ok, here is a sincere question for XB1 owners.

Due to all this resolution-gate stuff, there is a good chance that developers might start making more games 1080p @60fps on the XB1 just to steer clear of the resolution and fps debates/fiasco's. Good news, right?

The thing is, no matter what party we are affiliated with, we all can agree that the XB1 just is not as powerful as the PS4. We are constantly seeing multiplat games running at less fps and/or resolution on the XB1 just to keep them looking roughly the same visually (with upscaling) as the PS4 versions. This is simply a hardware bottleneck that will always be present, and while there will undoubtedly be things that can be done to narrow that gap, there will always be a gap.

So here is my question: What would you guys prefer, 1080p @60fps with downgraded texture resolution and/or other effects (lighting, AA or otherwise)? Or would you take something like 900p @30fps and have a game that still looks really nice, like Ryse?

I assume most will take the latter, a nicer looking game graphically, but with less resolution and/or fps.

Honestly I would be very worried as an XB1 owner, because if devs focus most on getting 1080p and 60fps due to recent controversies, the XB1 versions will no doubt be noticeably less appealing (graphics wise) compared to the PS4 versions, due to the fact that they have to downgrade quite a lot to reach 1080p @60fps (unless the game just isn't very demanding). Whereas if they simply dropped the fps and/or resolution, it could be pretty close graphically via upscaling.

I ask this question in complete sincerity, and hope I don't get bubbled down to hell because of it.

insomnium23718d ago

Don't worry. You won't get an answer from them. Disagrees on the other hand you WILL get.

Major_Glitch3718d ago

@ITPython Smartest post on this fail of a thread. It's funny how all the die hard M$ fans are out here, once again saying graphics matter because they saw a headline saying an x1 game is gonna do 1080p @ 60 fps. Some of them are even trying to use this to justify the laughable assertion that the x1 is somehow technically equal to the PS4. Poor things. Let me spell it out for you guys, Wolfenstein will STILL look better on the PS4. The x1 is STILL less powerful then the PS4.

jasonc12133718d ago

Xbox owner here. To answer your question I'd prefer something like Ryse in 900p than a 1080p stutterfest. It would be kind of cool to choose which resolution you wanted in the game's settings (like on a PC).

As I get older I ask myself when im playing ANY game.

'Are you having fun???" If the honest answer is no. I usually will send the game back (gamefly) if the answer is YES. Ill keep and buy it.
