Switch: 'We don't know, we have no plans'. Scorpio: 'We don't know, we have no plans'. (who needs Google translate) sooooo let me get this straight. PS4 pro gets the 4k (2k upscaled but still) output out of the box WITHIN THE SAME DISK done though maybe 2 lines of coding to differentiate between one setting for the PS4 and the Pro settings for the Pro...and it's too hard to do the same for the scorpio? It's the same goddamn situation. Hell some devs are already working on these patches Bioware has one ready for PS4 pro (not even a parch mind you all copies of MEA will be identical on the disk it is just a settings issue) But it's too much to ask to do the same to futureproof the Xbox version? |

I mean let's face it... Bioware has the dev kits. All the have to do is up the goddamn settings to increase the quality of some effects or the resolution. Is it a laziness thing or do the want to annoy the Xbox fanbase at this point just for shots and giggles?

It's possible they don't know because Microsoft don't have all the answers yet. Unlike the PS4 and Pro, the Scorpio hasn't been released yet, so there is no real way to do develop something for it unless Microsoft gives them some sort of dev platform to work with.

Scorpio is just an Xbox One with more resolution options. They might patch in better textures and lighting for Xbox One scorpios around release to cash-in on launch sales but it's a rather trivial priority.
Bringing ME:A to Switch is a completely different ball game. If there is one thing EA should have learned by now it's that the target audience just isn't there on Nintendo platforms for late ports of third party games to justify the additional production, manufacturing and logistical costs.

If they want to annoy the Microsoft fanbase they would say to you that BW has an exclusivity deal with Sony for extra contents for about a year. THAT would make people annoyed. |

If there is one thing EA should have learned by now it's that the target audience just isn't there on Nintendo platforms for late ports of third party games to justify the additional production, manufacturing and logistical costs. it's a bit more than just more res...it is a hell of a lot more horsepower, more than the Pro...all they had to do was bake the same differentiated settings in the Xbox version really. But yeah I agree the switch port would be a nightmare especially since apparently the docked version of the game has better resources than the mobile version |

They have to it runs all Xbox one games...but patch in better graphical options? Come on why in hell would MS contractually force them not to say they will add the same features they are adding for the ps4 pro version? Unless Sony is paying them NOT to say it because they are feeling that it would steal the thunder of that 4k tech demo. Eh maybe things will change by E3, by then they will start talking about the first piece of story dlc for Andromeda and maybe they will do what Bioware always does and show it on the more powerful hardware. |

Whoah, there chief. Don't go putting your cart before the horses there. They've got time after this game comes out to figure out if they're gonna do anything with Scorpio. Right now, all that they're worrying about is shipping it. |

I'd rather be sure they are working on this patch now given their track record. |

No, I am not going to diss the game itself because of Bioware's laziness in this regard but I am not gonna put stock into any empty promises they make about technical fixes either because of their track record. |

There is more really but yeah...very poor track record Not to mention that they have a VERY funny idea of "fixing"...just look at the extended cut that was supposed to fix the ending in ME3... |

I don't see why 4K on the Xbox One S considering it can display in 4K. That being said, maybe we'll see a Scorpio re-release of Andromeda when the Scorpio comes out.

The scorpio is gonna run the Xbox game like the ps4 pro runs the ps4 game which is only patched to run at higher res. Why re release the game when it just needs a fucking patch?????? |

There is more really but yeah...very poor track record Not to mention that they have a VERY funny idea of "fixing"...just look at the extended cut that was supposed to fix the ending in ME3... All those issues you list are just reasons for them to focus on getting the game right for the available platforms as they currently exist. There is no point preparing something in March for a console that might not be here til December, when they could (and should) be working on finalising other issues with the game. I strongly suspect that they will support the Scorpio. Whether they do it as a patch or as a physical re-release is a different question. I agree that the latter would be a money grab but not surprising. We're probably talking about an 8-9 month delay between the release of MEA and the release of the Scorpio so I kinda understand why they're not doing anything about it this far out. EDIT: There's also the issue of financial backing. I suspect MEA will sell very well, but in the event that it flops EA probably wouldn't want BW wasting time and resources in updating the game purely for the Scorpio. |
