Re: Apex Legends Feels Clunky On My Xbox Series X vs My PC.

I just assumed that it ran 4K on PS4 pro and X box 1 X. I never owned those consoles, but I know that with their GPU specs (same as rx580) they will barely be running at 4K. So it looks like they run 1440p instead for most games. I wonder why X box series X isn't full 4K? Very strange that anything at that resolution runs noticeably worse on a brand new console. Besides 1080p gaming I play VR which is lower resolution, but taxes the GPU more, so I don't pay attention to higher resolutions in general.

Oh, okay yeah. The new consoles don't have official support yet, so they're basically just running the old generation versions. So in my case the Xbox Series X is running the Xbox One X version if that makes sense.

I knew that the new consoles weren't supported yet, just really odd how different it feels to play Apex Legends on PC then on consoles.

@Popa2caps While it is true the new consoles dont have a version I've noticed a massive difference from my ps4 to my ps5. I imagine going to 120 fps will be a similar step.

Please note, I'm not trying to sound rude and/ or mean in any way, but why did your comment have anything to do with frames per second?

I'm honestly confused by your reply.

EDIT

I'm adding this to make it less confusing in my reply.

I totally understand the differences between high refresh rates, but this discussion is more or less why my Xbox Series X feels so clunky compared to my PC which has less powerful hardware.

Hope that makes more sense.

@Popa2caps Isn't apex still running on specs for a last gen console as opposed to current gen? Which I guess is why it would feel clunkier on your xbox in comparison to your PC.
I'm in no way knowledgeable on this side of things so this could quite easily be entirely inaccurate lol.

@Popa2capsI responded to your post before mine where the discussion was about last gen vs new gen consoles. 🤷‍♂️

As far as why your pc and the xbox feel different I have no idea what is meant by clunky. But with similar specs I'd expect the PC to perform better considering the game is produced to run better on a PC. I mean on PC you have a vast array of options to fine tune the experience. Console you do not.
