Sunset Overdrive: Confirmed at 900p, 30fps

http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/09/25/sunset-overdrive-dev-its-the-biggest-game-weve-ever-made

If you're a fan of the Xbox One's amazing "crushed blacks" filter, you're in luck because Sunset Overdrive will be upscaling from 900p to the native resolution of your TV.

We’re running at 900p and 30 fps native. This is a game with a lot on the screen and we made the choice to be at 900 because we wanted to push the level of detail, action, the size of the city and the views you can experience as move around.

and i predict lots of frame rate drops

le x1 is a joke,nothing "next gen" about it

Good. It should have solid performance now.

Lemmings

hahhahaaa..

Ugh, the crushed blacks is a much bigger deal to me than the resolution.

Lets hope for a stable frame rate then. This game does look like it would look amazing at 60 fps though, so I hope it goes to the PC next year.

Isn't that what Watch Dogs ran at on the PS4? It seems to be a growing trend with open world titles on those shitty laptop APUs. The odd one that managers to hit 1080p still runs at 30fps.

" We’re running at 900p and 30 fps native. This is a game with a lot on the screen and we made the choice to be at 900 because we wanted to push the level of detail, action, the size of the city and the views you can experience as move around."

Yep, perfectly understandable and the right move, good job. ISS should have got the same treatment and perhaps the city wouldn't be so dead.:P

It makes you wonder...

aka just wait for the PC version

Still going to be awesome.....FH2 and this for X1 owners. What do cows get to play again?

dx12 secret sauce??

Game looks great no matter what the res is. woule much rather have stable 30 than a push for 1080p.

this is so old they said that several months ago

yeah it was stated ages ago, and the nerve of sony fans when watch dogs was the same, ohdear.

Still a buy and still will be a blast.

Also confirmed to be 0p and 0fps on the PS4. Locked.

And yet the article I linked to is from ... today.

AAA? REally? lol

I hope it doesn't come to PC we don't want it yuck.

Don't jinx it now remember Titan fail ?

That's just sad..

PC release it is then.

At least is more than 720P

The sweet spot.

The game doesn't need to be 1080p. I'm not even sure X1 could even handle it anyways lol

The game reminds me of Wet for the PS3/360. It will be a miracle for it to even reach AA.

Generations are not based on power, they are based on succession which is why the Wii is Considered a 7th gen console despite being seriously underpowered.

People that think Generations are about power need there heads testing.

Saying that, it's obvious that this time round Microsofts console is Far from being the most powerful console of this generation.

Microsoft had the Ball and fumbled it and SONY where there to pick it up.

i Say 'fumbled' but it was more like 'screwing the pooch' really.

So 22fps then?

Silky smooth.

Makes you laugh, the developers made a decision to go with 900p because they felt it would make the game better, the EXACT SAME THING the developers chose with the Order on Ps4 yet apparently it's ok for the order to be sub 1080p but it's not OK for sunset overdrive, Confusing isn't it?

From what i have seen from the Order so far it seems to be a wise decision to cut down the Resolution to improve the rest of the game or to get a cinematic feel

Gamers are greedy buggers, with 900p you get a whole 180p above what we had last gen yet people are still not happy, it's an improvement ain't it ? if things where going backwards i could understand, but they are not are they?

Rolling around at the speed of sound, Got places to go, gotta follow my rainbow! Can't stick around, have to keep moving on, Guess what lies ahead, Only one way to find out!

Thirty Fps, Can't bother for more it causes the developers too much stress! We tried for 1080p, I'm sorry the fps tanked it'll have too stay at..........900p!

Oh yeah!

Will still be fin. One of my top anticipated games of 2014.

Too bad you'll never be able to play it.

This resolution thing has gotten old.

Exactly. Cows are frickin dumbasses.

@scottpsfan14: Yet, i have a feeling SO will outscore The Corridor 1886.

Old news anyway. Still, lol 900p still on the xbone. Cmon, Crackdown, Quantum Break, Phantom Dust, Scalebound and Halo 5 better be 1080p.

Unless their aiming for 60fps, which tend i'll be fine with. Hey, it's a still console, not a pc.

Sorry i edited my post, i think it's fine for both games to be honest, i would rather have a lower resolution with more going on on Screen and more Anti aliasing and more stable framerate which reduces controller Lag.

If lowering the Rez makes a better game i am all for it.

Both the order and Sunset overdrive look really impressive in my opinion.

too much hate on insomniac games.

Never? Please. It's not like you're in some elite club.

I could grab an Xbox One on my way home today. and at some point I will, why not? I figure for black friday I can pick one up for $300 with a game. I have an XBL gold subscription still active and I've been putting XBL "games with gold" in my account for the Xbox One every month they've been available.

Sorry that "this resolution thing" has gotten old for you. Thank Microsoft for deciding to put out a weak console, not me.

@scottpsfan14: Fair enough, i'll retract.

Still, wait for the inevitable PC version, going by Insomniacs latest article

Don't bother. What you just said is way, way over the heads of our resident fanboys.

But yeah, native resolution, no upscaling, no crushed blacks.

Putting gameplay before aesthetics. Good job MS and partners.

Glad so see the Sony mantra of flash before substance isn't spreading to other devs.

So, did cows simply forget about the order?

Yes, the gaming press will be tripping over their tongues to give this a AAA rating. It will still sell less than Knack, though.

XBone..
