it's a 30fps game
Good to know though. Thanks for testing it.
It can already, the drive just needs to be formatted with no extra partitions and files need to be in the appropriate folder.

Wether the game is capped at 30 or not, PLEASE do upload 60fps videos.

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?
Need more bloodborne impressions!
Hmm, okay, well is there an option for that on the PS4? I dunno, I don't upload videos often
>20 second load to the city and looking noticeably smoother - here's hoping the official Pro patch next week matches or exceeds it.

This is incredible looking at some of the results. It's almost too good to be true. Watch next week people will be reporting their Pros have started to catch fire. lol.
Hey guys,
Just wanted to confirm that I'm stoked.
BB is running consistent, I don't think I ever noticed any bad FPS in the game before. But going through old Yarnham it looks like it's locked 30 FPS. I HOPE IT'S NOT FUCKING PLACEBO. I haven't played it for a year.
Besides that so is AC Unity capped at 30fps... it's gorgeous (has anyone updated yet)? And Just Cause 3 seems noticeably smoother. I'm going to see if it works wonders on Skyrim SE.
Congrats Sony! You did it.
I just want a 1080P SuperSampling Universal to all games now. This machine is superb!

Yeah, on PS4 Pro you can record and upload 1080p 60fps videos.
It's uncapped. The original could get to 40fps according to Digital Foundary.
You'll need to use a video that doesn't cap at 30fps to notice a difference.

It has an unlocked frame-rate, there may be points it can reach higher than 30 fps which you won't see in a 30 fps video.

Would love to see Rainbow 6 Siege Terrorist Hunt Mode with the unlocked framerate
Someone hit 110fps, albeit looking at the floor.

I just started UC4 by accident, and the PS4 popped up a notification saying that the application changed the resolution of the screen. Is that new?
I just played around in it for a fair bit and the actual framerate was in the 70's for when I was in the midst of a firefight.

Ok so here we go...
I started the stopwatch from the time I pressed the button and waited until my character was in the game world (so the little countdown after you elect to go to a location is included). Leaving the planets I waited to start the stopwatch until the circular button countdown finished. And for clarification, this is not on a stock PS4 Pro hard drive. I have a Seagate hybrid installed.
Orbit to the Tower
Boost- 56.65 (tested twice)
No boost- 1:10.12
To orbit from tower
Boost- 10.53
No boost- 16 sec
Orbit to iron temple
Boost- 50.77
No boost- 1:11.44
Iron temple to orbit
Boost- 9.72
No boost- 10.98
Orbit to Mars
Boost- 39.02
No boost- 38.22
Mars to Orbit
Boost- 9.81
No boost- 10.56
Orbit to WotM
Boost- 37.82
No boost- 39.61
To summarize, fairly significant improvements going to and from the social spaces like the tower and the iron temple.
There may be very tiny improvements going to and from planets/missions, but that would require more testing.
110 fps

Yep. That's the highest it hits. Averages at 75FPS.
Hmm, I can stream 1080p60fps, but video clips only let me select dimensions

So since Skyrim has a pro patch, this mode wont work? Meaning, boost mode wont fix the skyrim's lower framerate on the pro?
Thanks for taking the time.

This...changes things for me, perhaps I will buy a pro in the future.

Actually, for some reason you can only share play or stream 60fps. Videos only in 30fps... unless thats changed in this firmware??

Why isn't Sony shouting this from the rooftops? It's not even in the official blog update?!?!?

Someone needs to test the Siege Engine part of the Wrath ot the Machine raid in Destiny. There is major fps drops on that part.
Delete the Pro patch.
Game keeps crashing on me :/ or won't load in boost mode.

I'm also stoked but Skyrim also has a Pro patch and won't see any additional improvements.

I have PS4Pro, signed up for Beta, no code yet...
Have almost the whole PS4 PS+ Library installed and ready to be tested
C'mon Sony, where's my code!

if it turns out as good as early impressions, they probably won't need to. plus they can work out the kinks for E3

Just booted up Tales From The Borderlands for the first time, everything seems kind of smooth (aside from clunky animation). Not sure when I should be expecting major slowdowns, this is my first Telltale game.
No problem.
Got excited after testing the tower first. Would've been awesome to see that much improvement on missions too! Still pretty cool though.
Which is kind of frustrating because I'd take the performance over their wack Pro support any day.

It's still in beta. Expect a big fanfare around the official release.

For games with downloadable pro patches not on the disc has anyone tried deleting the patch and seen the improvements?
