As someone who ground out the Platinum trophy in this game, this is a night and day difference. The crowd scenes running well is a (French) revolution.


still lots of pop in though right?

or am i having a stroke

man that game was allot of fun
 
Hmm I've seen frame-rate drops in this game, they don't really look like that. That looks like the game speed has decreased not a frame-rate drop.

Are there really situations where the game speed decreases in this game? I've played about 20 hours and haven't seen anything like that. Maybe it's just how share factory videos come out?

I assure you the game slows down quite a bit in certain instances especially:
when i killed the one reborn. Massive slowdown.

Very pleased with the boosts we're seeing so far. Props to Sony for releasing this option after all. Now I'm sad that I didn't register for the beta :(
 
Fuck yes.

FUCK YES.

FUCK YES.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEES.

I CAN'T FUCKING WAIT FOR THE PUBLIC RELEASE! HOLY SHIT!
 
Anyone look at Assault Android Cactus? That game has tons of screen tear when there are lots of enemies on screen, although it's not always obvious because the screen is so busy. Would love to see that eliminated.

If someone shares their beta code with me I will create a gaf burner PSN account and pass on the information back to them so that they can redeem the beta and then we can keep passing it on one by one for all the people who need it
 
FUCK.
I should have bought a Pro, instead of a slim...

I didn't think they'd ever improve the performance of older games....

Well. At least I only paid 200$ for my PS4.

Guys, we need an Infamous: Second Son gameplay with Beast Mode. The game ran at 45-60fps at the time. I imagine it will stay locked with Beast Mode.

GTA V single player- got my fastest car and raced through the city straight to the freeway. Equipped the railgun and mini gun and destroyed everything until some brave cop managed to get up close and finish me off.

Solid frame rate the whole time. Although in fairness performance always felt pretty good in GTA V on PS4.

Just got home from work.

Boost Mode? That's WHOA.

The guys at Digital Foundry will rightly pop boners. This brings them so much content to benchmark.
 
I can confirm that Battlefield 4 in a 64-player conquest match now runs like a dream. The visuals are really hard to go back to, but the performance is smooth as fuck now.

All you people saying you are going to go get a pro, better hurry. These things arent readily available everywhere. Most of the time stores have 1 or 2 units and most have none at all.

As other mentioned it has Pro patch but if I remember correctly

Tomb Raider Remaster and Killzone Shadow Fall also had 40-50 fps modes.

I'm going to test XIV when I get home. XV already has a pro patch so it probably won't see any change.

True. Plus we're getting that almost 60fps patch here soon anyway. Still, just curious.


Edit: Good place to start is probably around Quarrymill or Idyllshire. Though I don't remember much if any of the Primal fights had slowdown or not.
