Tim Sweeney on the Tech Demo: "Nanite and Lumen tech powering it will be fully supported on both PS5 and Xbox Series X and will be awesome on both."

Raging after seeing those graphics and tech, running on the most used 3rd party engine? Lol

Literally nobody cares about that demo being possible on Xbox except for Xbox fans.
The crazy fans always hope the other system is not able to do something and flops. They don't care about competition and how it pushes the industry forward. It's basically children bullying because they are so insecure.

For sure.
But it was just a tech-demo and there is no reason to think all of that tech isn't possible on Xbox.
Thinking otherwise is just stupid, no matter what fanbase a person belongs to.

It's UE, after all.

The tweet I posted is the continuation of the OP tweet.
They choose to demo on PS5 due the SSD perf.
It's not like he can come out and say: "Because Sony paid us a lot of money"

So why is this any news? We knew this from the start when they showed it. They already said it after in the articles.

It's not about if it will run on other platforms. UE has always been multiplatform engine. It's about HOW it will run on the other platforms.
 
Lol little late to walk back yesterday. Oh well he made everyone who was not a Sony loyalist pissed off man up and live with it. Lesson learned dont trash the platform your store is on lol. As they say dont bite the hand that feeds you. It was fine to do demo but he should of left it at that since he had a store. Going on twitter ond doing a technical break down why the platform your store is on is POS and is 4th rate had to make the marketing team pull that hair out. It be like phil going on Twitter and doing a breakdown why the series x sucks especially to a market who refers to themselves as the master race.

Lol, when did he say that? Black or white thinking where if something isn't praised it's dogshit is fucking retarded.

This.

Mind you, the funny part is the people talking as if Sweeney had to "walk it back". As if people were going to boycott games made with UE LOL.

I'd also caution that the differential in UE3 performance between X360 and PS3 was way wider than the TF count of each machine's GPU would suggest. Engine efficiency is about much more than fill-rate.

Competition is good. But it is also good to see a winner, and if you're a fan of one side you'll be pumped your side won. When we were on the Tflops war, we had xsx as a clear winner.

When someone makes a decision such as better ssd vs higher tflop, there is a tradeoff. There will always be winners and losers. If someone loses, that prompts them to better prepare for the next round. This time it seems the ssd may be a critical advancement, but that still needs to be confirmed with actual games.

I feel like there is more to this story. As an outsider looking in, I think Epic damaged their relationship with Microsoft.

Sony fans should probably prepare themselves for some type of exclusivity deal with Epic to bring first party games to the PC.

Mmmm..all that juicy data streaming in....at 1440p 30fps.
Compromises _ Epic obviously wanted to highlight the UE5 new features to their max, of course there are trade-offs... In the future devs will have the tools... and the freedom to prioritize whatever they want. Simple as that.

60fps is still on the table 😉

That 1440p 30FPS demo was pulling out 20M polygons, so if Epic optimizes the rendering to get closer to promised 1 polygon/pixel they can free up A LOT of performance, theoretically even 4K60 should be doable (8-9M polys). But we are still at least 3 years away until we get the first games utilizing UE5 anyway.

as amazing as the demo is, 1440p and 30fps isn't a good advertisement for next gen on any console
I highly doubt the vast majority of gamers cares that much about resolution and framerste with the quality shown by Epic.

And it's hardly surprising we'll still be seeing 30fps games next-gen to begin with.

and yet there was so many on here lambasting that the next assassins creed gonna be 30fps. if anything I would expect to see more 60fps at the start of a gen as most graphics engines will not push the hardware to its fullest, later in the gen is where I would expect more cutbacks

But Tim Sweeny said PS3 was easy to develope for !
