Sorry, I meant 60 for Oddworld. Screen tearing is still in Sleeping Dogs for me but its very minor, and only when driving, never on foot.

Just had a quick test of 2 others

The Talos Principle is much smoother now also.

Arcania - Now a seemingly solid 30FPS. You lot at GAF have no idea how much this makes me happy! haha! (seriously, its quite underrated!)

Is there any chance you have Hand of Fate?

Edit: Also, Broforce?

wait, Bloodborne is much better. It's more like "consistent with occasional hitching" than "consistently broken"

*record screeches to a stop*
 
The Evil Within - Performance is much, much better judging by the first 15-20 mins.

Yakuza 0 - No noticeable slowdown while running around the city like before.

Bloodborne - Much better load times but not noticing much difference otherwise.

Batman: Arkham Knight - Smooth as butter.

The Witcher 3 is still unfortunately downloading, as are a few other titles.

Thank you. Could you upload a video of driving the batmobile around gotham?

Nice.

Would be hilarious, and very sad actually, if Scorpio DOESN'T do this.

If MS weren't planning on it, they better af right now

Well this is a nice addition.

PS4 Pro is a boost!

After few minutes of testing, it runs better, but since I was never bothered by the framepacing in that game,I can't say if it is eliminated. DF/NXGamer will have to give us definite proof of that.

OK bloodborne plays better imo, still frame pacing issues though and that's from softwares problem to resolve. Definitely feels smoother.

Only need DF to confirm now. FUCKING FINALLY. I might actually consider buying a Pro.
 
Beginning my 8th playthough of Bloodborne right now because of this, I honestly don't see any improvement right now while roaming in Yharnam, but wait for other impressions because I honestly don't have much eye for FPS count, and don't ask me to get whatever the fuck frame pacing is supposed to be.

Bloodborne is my GOTG and I've never been obsessed or disappointed by the technical side, but right now I don't feel any change. I will pay attention to load times though next time since people are talking about that.

BB load times are a lil faster. Performance seems the same to me, framepacing included, tried Old Yarnam bridge. Gonna try to record a quick video on Old Yarnam non Beast and Beast mode.

Trivial Pursuit Live is still stuttery in all the same places.

How such a simple game can run so badly is beyond me. Unity issues perhaps.

And yes, that was the first game I tried, if only because it's got obvious frame stutters.

Wasn't Arkham Knight pretty much smooth as butter on OG PS4 too? I don't recall it having issues.

Just installed and testing a few things around.

A pretty cool thing not mentioned in the changelog is that now you can easily download or upload save games from hdd to cloud directly from the game menu clicking options. It's very cool and easy to use.
 
Someone please try out Rocket League!

THIS IS IMPORTANT!

Nah it wasn't, at least mine wasn't. Someone will probably link the DF article saying that the game is a technical marvel, but I don't care.

I played the entire thing and thought it was smooth as hell. Was really impressed when I threw the batarang around the city and didn't see a drop.

Feature discussion is that way:

Start testing some Beast Mode games!

Interested in Last Guardian, Dark Souls 3 and DriveClub impressions if those are out there.

TLG is Pro patched so it won't see any benefit. DC is rock solid at 1080p and locked to 30 FPS with insanely quick loading times, so it won't see any benefits either.
