'The Last of Us: Remastered' coming to PS4, July 2014, [1080p, targeting 60 fps]

will re-buy the game after the first price drop just for the 60fps multiplayer. i played THE SHIT out of the MP, which is weird because im not really into MP shooters these days. 4 vs 4 tactical gameplay in well-designed (and pretty!) maps was great fun.

fuck that censorship bullshit in the EU though.. took a long while until i realized i was playing a butchered version :(

This makes me happy, if only because now all the frame rate whining will cease.

oh, but what if it drops into the 40-50fps range when things get hectic? ND betta watch out

And it's not just PR speak. It's from Arne Meyer who works at Naughty Dog. 60 fps is real, folks.

I would say that's not a confirmation because Arne Meyer did not write the German translation. It's not in the English blog posts on either US/EU blogs.

Really ? rather than the studio working on new games ?

Not for me, it's utter bullshit that the last year has seen gamers spit the dummy over the slightest thing but everyone is lapping up full price upressed ports of old fucking games.

TLoU is my GOTF but the game is less than a year old , this is bullshit.

They did this in order to get their engine up and running on PS4. It wasn't wasted time.

...and you dont have to buy it. I appreciate the option though as the PS3 version didn't run that great to begin with and it's my choice to go ahead and rebuy it. Not a big deal.

How do you make animations with a framerate in mind? They're still moving at the same speed.

Really, the biggest problem is that 60 fps makes it more obvious that the animation transitions aren't as smooth as they should be to make them convincing. Fixing those would definitely overcome more objections.
 
I still want a ICO collection remastered...
And GOW collection
aaaannndddd maybe Uncharted collection...
don't think I care much about Beyond Two Souls or Heavy Rain

Should've bought a PS3.. I should've

I might one of those weird, easy to please people but I really had 0 issues with TLoU's performance on the PS3. Not saying there weren't any...just they never once hindered my enjoyment of the game.

Finally played Left Behind last weekend and it really made me want to play through it all again. Damn...this game is so good. I will definitely be there day one again. Going digital this time and keeping my PS3 physical copy around because I can not trade away a game this good.

Why don't you calm down and try to understand the people working on the port and the people busy designing new games aren't necessarily the same people? Also, this gives ND some early PS4 live engine testing for future games.

Think before you post.

This is going to be incredible the second time around as well.

Straight in my veins!

The multiplayer is probably what I'm most excited about- a whole new community surviving! GAH!

Yes, yes, yes!

Did anyone ever talk about technical differences between the main game and Left Behind? I can't say for sure, because there were months between them, but I think it ran a little better, and had better AA coverage.

Arne Meyer now speaks German? It's probably just some translated post by some intern who mixed up the details and fucked up.
This. 60fps would be great but I wouldn't take this as confirmation until someone clarifies. Why would they leave it out of the US and EU blogpost but then confirm it in the german translation?

I thought Left Behind ran better but I'm not sure if it's due to the level design, better engine tech or just me use to the framerate hitches from the full game.

Didn't we already have GOW and ICO collections? We got to stop at some point, bro

So the various preorder bonuses of healing speed and whatnot, is that like perks? I have not played the game, so no spoilers please, but does this game have unlockable perks like that in general or is it a unique thing to preorders?

It seems all the preorder stuff is unnecessary fluff rather than substantial as the DLC appears to be included in the actual game rather than the bonuses.

I don't like the pre-order bonuses. Also I really don't get all of the 60fps whining. Lock it at 30 and give me all the visual candy you can muster, Naughty Dog.
 
It's not the only thing, but in the context of purchasing the game again as an "enhanced" edition, it's a fair point of evaluation. It would add value for a lot of people. Going nutzo over it is another thing entirely.

Someone was in the Lego Hobbit thread asking about if it was 60fps... I mean... c'mon.

This is the last straw. Now Naughty Dog is relegated to a port studio and isn't making any more new games.

Relocation and selling of headquarters
Jack Tretton gone
Amy Hennig gone
Brian Karis gone
New IP gone + Massive layoffs
Amazon in stock
Sony's Ryse first "gameplay debut" underwhelming
Uncharted PS4 probably delayed to be turned into grimmer and darker vision and pushed out due to new port responsibilities
Worst launch line-up I've seen. (including FireTV)
4 (Shi) means death in Japan
console is smaller which means it will overheat easier
not balanced because too much went into APU not enough into plastics

If Corrine can't get it running at 60FPS, I'm not sure who could...

I think we should be wondering whether they wanted to make this game 60fps or continue to push the visuals?

Even a stable 30fps would be a step up from the PS3 version.

The US and EU blog posts are written by Arne Meyer as well, the German post is a translation (unless Arne can write in German). Which kinda makes me wonder if the translator messed up.

I know this isn't the popular opinion on GAF, but 60fps honestly is not always desirable. Don't get me wrong, I love 60fps as much as the next guy, but this game is overally very slow paced, and additionally not the type of game where you need minimal input lag. I'm not saying 60fps wouldn't benefit this game, but rather that for a game of this nature I think maxed out IQ at capped 30fps would be a better experience.
