720p mode is built into the PS4 OS. It's under Display settings.

Did anyone else notice the game is getting a PhotoMode like Infamous had? That will be awesome!

Good, good, it's all about that purist experience.

Wat. Really?

 

[fluffydelusions]

Can I get my jaggies back when I play at 30 fps tho? #teamjaggies

 

[PSOreo]

Wat. Really?

Apparently so; this is from Eurogamer

 

[Andrew.]

I want a 480p or SD option.

Seriously, I should be able to experience this game with A/V cables. I want that 2000-2001 feel.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Still no gameplay video.

Can you post the link to the USK where it failed the submission?

Doesn't that just downscale the 1080p rendered game? I don't think setting the display settings to 720 would make the game render at 720p

There is no supersampling support built into the PS4 OS, so it does render at native 720p.

Yeah fucking Germany and their laws that prevent uncensored violent games to be released in other countries.

BPjM just approved the version Naughty Dog gave them..

 

[DevilFox]

I want a mode called Kawaii that place Joel's big eyes face on clickers, do it ND!

Guys this is getting out of hand

This is just the beginning. Brace yourself for an heavy shitstorm when the game releases, I bet my 2 cents.

From the comments section on the EU PS Blog...

I’m glad there’s a 30fps option. 60fps aids shooting but robs the game of its atmosphere and tension. Tomb Raider on PS4 was proof of that. In a game like TLOU, that atmosphere is crucial.

But if an option to lock to 30fps is that easy to implement then what I’d really like is an option to lock to 24fps, like films. It could be really cool, and if not you wouldn’t have to use it anyway. You could even get the classic Ocarina of Time effect, which I loved as a kid. There’s a reason that game was so atmospheric and well-loved, after all.

Please tell me that was a joke........

I'm pretty certain the person was being serious. I didn't sense any sarcasm.

 

[toastyToast]

That's absolutely 100% sarcasm

 

[anexanhume]

30fps mode, lol. Do they have a 720p mode, too?

No, just a 7p5/10 mode.

 

[hwateber]

30 fps mode for people who prefer it? Gimme a crushed blacks mode too!

 

[off duty ninja]

Awww, home sweet home. Those other TLOU threads were really scary!!

No Xbox One version is planned at this time.

As if this one is any better?

Come on guys, let's discuss framerates.

 

[Birbo]

Is the DLC available from the start, or do you need to play through the game first?

I could've sworn that I read Left Behind is unlocked upon completion, but I could be wrong.

Either way, you save LB for when you're finished.

 

[off duty ninja]

Protect me from all of the 60fps elitists!! I am all for some 60 fps as it is a rare treat in a major console release but some of those folks are straight CRAZY!

On a side note. Since we now call lower fps "filmic" can we call higher fps "gamic" or something along those lines?

 

[TetraGenesis]

Would a kind fellow gaffer clear something up about this game for me?

Does the game's core mechanic center around protecting the little girl? If so is it similar is to those Ashley sections in RE4?

cheers

The whole game is built around not being that, actually.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

As far as I know, Left Behind is locked until the main game is completed, and trust me, you'll be glad of that.

 

[off duty ninja]

Thank GOD

Spoiler

Naughty Gods to be exact

!! An entire game built around escort missions would be freaking horrible!

 

[TetraGenesis]

Photomode has me so unbelievably hyped, like, more hyped than I was before. I said it when I first tried it in Second Son, I'll say it again: Photomode needs to be in every first party PS4 game from here on out.

 

[Andrew.]

Except that re4 is anything but horrible and 3/4 of the game is the best escort mission ever fucking created.

Same here, that feature has me much more hyped.

 

[Betty]

A photo mode like Second Son? Hell yes.

 

[off duty ninja]

Oh sorry, not knocking RE4. I haven't played it in ages but it's one of my favorite survival horror type games. I don't really remember those specific missions.

In general I hate missions that require you to worry about some stupid NPC who seems to want to just run off to their death.

 

[Birbo]

Already played through the main game on PS3, but never got around to Left Behind. Thanks for the info though.

Why is 60fps important?

"It was a toss-up before; people were saying that you lose quality and graphics and what not, but being able to compare apples to apples like we have now with The Last of Us, going back and playing the 30 Hz version feels broken."

Where did this come from suddenly? Insane if not a bullshot.

You escort Ashley for 1/4th of the game, max. And while RE4 is one of the greatest games of all time, the escort parts are fast from the best part of that game. I don't want to get into one of those overdone RE4 v. TLOU discussions, that's not what this is about at all, but TLOU would not be a better game if Ellie were fragile and needed protecting.

It's a bullshot. This is the real one.

And this is why I'm wondering why they included the option to play the game in a "broken" state.

Good call. There hasn't been much discussion about framerates. We should continue on that.

 

[murgo]

So guys, are you gonna fap at 30 or 60 strokes per second when you get the game?
