Probs been discussed heaps. But do you think the x difference to the s for battlefield V will be that noticeable. I’m only casual and only really play battlefield. ? I get it sounds like a dumb question but the s is so cheap now. ? I play on 4K hisense s7
The X is a very powerful machine it will without a doubt make BF V look and probably play better. If that’s all you play though then stick with the S. If you play lots of games then X all the way.
Ok moose hunter thanks for the response. Still undecided. Dam it haha
Got the ok from the funds manager. Getting one after work. S would be just a regretful purchase I think
Let us know how you get on.
I have an S at the moment but I think I may be getting an X soon.
Play a few games, not many but BF1 looks decent on the S.
Dont have a 4k TV as yet but the X appeals to me for processing power alone although I’m far from an expert in this area.
I have the X.
It’s a glorious piece of hardware. Not only do the games look beautiful, but the UI is super fast, super snappy, and virtually everything else I use on it (YouTube, Plex, Netflix, NHL, etc) seems to benefit from the power as well.
I have the S on a solar set up and with only 50watts its great!
Had one game so far. Not sure I can see much difference but seemed to be able to kill ok. Transfer took forever with battlefield but giving it a good crack tonight so will report back. So far seems a cool machine and very compact and seems to be of solid build and I can wave good bye to the power brick finally. Will try a enhanced game later to see if they are worlds apart.
xbox x, but i will wait for black friday discounts.
BF1 is looking like on a 4K tv on both the X1X and X1S because the resolution is only 1000p. I therefore play BF1 on my PS4 Pro and here BF1 looks beautifull on my 4K OLED tv with HDR because the resolution is 1800p upscaled to 4K.
BF V will however look better on X1X then on X1S and PS4 Pro because BFV will be uptimised for X1X which BF1 is not.
Starwars Battlefront 2 multiplayer is uptimised for X1X and it uses the same graphics engine “Frostbite” as BFV. So you can try to play Battlefront 2 and it will give you a good idea how good BFV will look on X1X. Battlefront 2 looks very good on X1X.
God, this game would look so good on the X if Dice decides to smarten up and enhance it. But I know they won’t.
Sigh. So much wasted potential.
The X is an exceptional piece of hardware - not only does it give huge graphical improvements to games, even if there isn’t enhancements (dynamic resolution really improves on the X), but it also is a very fast machine too.
You’ll notice other tangible benefits too - for example in BF1, The X + the external drive means I’m the first person to spawn into EVERY match regardless of game mode . So you are always guaranteed whatever vehicle or spawn point you want.
I just got an X yesterday, not only does BF1 look prettier, but I load into a match in less than 30 seconds compared to my One S which would take close to 2 minutes to load into a match. I would definitely recommend you go with an X over an S
just wait for the new new Xbox to come out
So after a week, Yeah I like it. For bf1 graphics don’t seem to different but loading Into the next round without 3 flags been taken makes a change. I like it. Can’t wait to see V on it.
I wouldn’t buy an x now with a new console coming out in late 2020.. unless you 100%got the money and will be financially set. Then by all means get the X it’s worth it.
Been having issues with mine sometimes on start up it goes black screen and then static on and off I i reset it seems to work again but takes ages to start up. Then the bf disc has trouble loading, it takes a few times to recognise. Thinking of taking it back to get a replacement but doesn’t always do the same problem. Any thoughts ? Anyone else has this issue ?
Had one for two weeks now and havent noticed any issues. Was running a bit hot last night but could have something to do with the extremely warm weather at the moment.
Overall I’m happy with the performance, its a very nice piece of hardware.
You cannot go wrong with the X. I wasn’t going to get one but I was able to get my hands on a scorpio at launch. Since then I upgraded to a TCL P and have been gaming and watching 4K movies. I love the HDR although it doesn’t start right all the time. Sometimes the colors are faded out but all I have to do is go back to the dashboard then back into the game or movie and it’s fine. My friend came on the 16th and I showed it off to him and he loved it. He is still on the OG xbox and said it’s so much more fluid and the colors are much better. Now my only decision is whether or not to get an SSD. Some people say it’s worth it and others say it isn’t. Currently the games I currently play are on my external 7200 RPM drive and things load faster on that then my internal. Internal I just use for storage.
SSD is a great upgrade. Joining bf1 servers is three times faster (takes me about 10 seconds). Most that say it’s not don’t have one.
Speaking of the X/PRO.
Will we get [email protected] this time? 30hz servers really suck.
