The "Next Gen" improvements are basically non existent. What a let down. Especially graphically.
I agree with you, TheGreedyG103. Stadium Creator is one feature, and I understand it required the new systems in order to run, but that is not the definition of "next-gen". Agreed, this stream was a letdown, and it didn't answer the technical questions I wanted answered. It was a Stadium Creator stream, not a "next-gen" stream.
Coincidentally, here are the questions I want answered and was expecting some answers in the stream about that were not answered.
Okay, so I know 4k@120 is not going to happen this year. However, what about 1440@120 or 1080p@120? Did 1440 get dropped because the PS5 does not support it natively? (The Xbox Series X|S support 1440@120 natively, so I sure hope 1440 (balanced) was not dropped in '21.)
1440@120 or 1080@120 is a cakewalk for the next-gen Xbox systems, with tons of horsepower leftover to still run SC. In addition, Microsoft has a 120fps patch for Xbox Series S|X that can make games be able to support 120 w/ minimal effort by the development team. Does the Xbox Series S|X version support this, and if not, why not? These are technical questions that I'd expect/want answered in a "next-gen" stream.
Instead, all we got was a 30-minute advertisement/commercial for Stadium Creator.
Could not have articulated it any better. Let's go even further beyond that. How were there no updated textures? Why does the dirt sitting on home plate still look so artificial? Why are there not any cloth physics? Why is their a lack of Ray Tracing? This game will be killed by reviewers.
