The exact conversation about prey is here: https://youtu.be/m1lG-ntf-e4?t=2857
Does Major Nelson really like prey?

Hines--"There are even other games that we are still looking at...that the team is still working on..."
(Hines slows down as Major Nelson starts pointing and silently mouthing the word "prey" towards him)
Major--"Prey??"
"Prey"
"Prey?! Yes!"
"Prey too (or maybe they internally still call it Prey 2?), we are working on something"
"Thank you!!"

A good anti-aliasing solution can really boost the image quality in games so I am quite surprised that it was left as it is. I know it is a very different game but I do hope that Forza Horizon 3 improves on the anti-aliasing when they enhance that.
Indeed. This situation is also quite ironic given the fact that Horizon 2 for the 360 had gorgeous AA. The game had one of the best IQ for a 360 game, if not the best.

Yeah, it's annoying on the menu screens because the camera is moving ever so slightly and creates a horrible shimmer.

I really hope that they'll go back and fix it at some point, even if it was to add an extra option in the menus so that the people who wanted to could choose to have it if they needed it. I know it's not quite this simple but one of the DF videos stated that all the cars on the screen using exactly the same level of detail irrelevant of how far away they are which has very little onscreen benefits when you play the game so I'd be happy if they altered that or even the texture filtering.

Even 4K downsampled with 8xMSAA couldn't save me from all the aliasing in Horizon 3.

Forza 7 on 1X looks cleaner to me in my 1080p plasma.

Just picked up Dishonoured: Death of the outsider, Mafia III and The evil within 2 in the online sale.

Now I really must finish Dishonoured 2 first...

Prey doesn't have a patch but does it get any performance upgrades running on the X? It's on sale and was thinking of picking it up.

Anyone able to test if Dishonored 2 input lag is addressed at all as a side effect of its X enhancements?

The sale is tempting but I need to know if the X patch did anything to help that problem at all. It seemed to run very stable on PS4 Pro but input lag made it highly unpleasurable. I also tried the PC demo but my rig fluctuates the frame rate too much for my liking there too...

It's a game I really want to play since I loved the original but can't get over how bad it feels for technical reasons. 30fps lock is fine but for one reason or another the controls completely lack precision imo

Did it have input lag on the Xbox one originally? I thought it was only an issue in ps4.

That black Friday sale is nuts! Glad I refunded Battlefront 2 - gives me some store credit to splurge.

I think it annoys somewhat because my Xbox is essentially a Forza machine and I absolutely love the game and it seemed that Microsoft pushed Forza 7 as their marquee X enhanced title, it was the one they showed to people like Digital Foundry to demonstrate the power of the console. it does a really good job in some areas but it just can't remember anybody mentioning the shimmering.

Recore Update Summary:

Probably the most impressive Update in terms of visuals.

The difference between X and S almost generational leap But there is a problem: The game is almost broken now. If you die once and get back to the Game,you can't fıre your gun and stucked when i tried to open the chests :(

Significant input latency on CryEngine titles seems to be a PS4-exclusive problem. Homefront: TR is the same, although nobody has actually scientifically measured it. But yes, Prey on Xbox was the best all-round console version. Good framerate, responsive controls. Misbehaved on external drives, though. I do recall that Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 had some weird streaming issues on external drives on XBO so, again, it's probably a CryEngine quirk. And it's probably been fixed by now anyway.

Did we ever find out what the Dead Rising 4 X update did? I can't find anything definitive on the internet or here with search =/ Also for those that have it should I go with the Deluxe Edition or Regular? There was something about the ending being locked behind the season pass?

Also need to figure out what's up with Recore, I want it but not if it's broken now lol

Yes happened to me as well. Wondering what that was. Whatever happened,turned Recore the most impressive Update. The graphical Upgrade over the S is simply crazy.

The texture quality, shimmering and aliasing are a big downer for me.

Dead Rising 4 looks great on the X. Crisp image quality and solid performance.

Are Quantum Break shadows always this flickery? http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/YogsamG/video/39387489

I see. Yeah, I guess see it now lol. I guess it wasn't updated?

My game install is just 8 GB. Is this right or what?

Just bought Rise of the Tomb Raider and high performance mode is my jam as a 1080p user. I want as many non-60fps game to have good high performance modes with the X as possible.

Glad to see ReCore finally updating for me tonight after others mentioned they've been getting their update over the past day or so.

And any update on if Prey is getting an Xbox One X enhancement patch? I feel like there was a quick, casual tease during the Bethesda segment of the X1X launch event stream, but I haven't seen anything official.

I'm trying to decide between Prey and FFXV now, and if you were to ask me before getting an Xbox One X which one I wanted first and which one I'd wait on, I'd answer differently, but the enhancement patch is making me impatient to play FFXV even though I've wanted to wait until the base game is complete (RIP me).

How is Battlefront 2 on the XBX?
ReCore looks like a nice boost.

Battlefront 2 looks really good and runs rather well.

Get FFXV since the patch is already out. Plus if you have a redbox near, it's only $10 right now.

This was fixed in the most recent preview dashboard update.
Wait really?!?!? I was so dissapointed with Quantum Break as I thought it had made the game actually look worse in some respects. I did notice there was some notes about texture improvements in some of the preview notes. That build goes public today doesn't it? Keen to try it out now.

Yeah I was having the same issue before the update, tons of shadow glitches especially on faces. Tried it today and I couldn't see it anymore.
