We've gotten to the point where we're calling Matt the developer worse than the best buy dog

Good lord lmao

Says WHO that <<insider matt>> is a developer? get real son

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Says WHO that <<insider matt>> is a developer? get real son

He's vetted

 

[Elog]

Says WHO that <<insider matt>> is a developer? get real son

He is literary one of the few people vetted to have access to both a PS5 and an XSX dev kit according to era (hence why he can only speak about things in general terms).

I wonder how many people actually care about these differences in hardware, and how many argue just for the sake of arguing, out of boredom.

I care because I love looking at system differences and how they affect how games run or look on different systems.
sadly (or great... for the actual end user) nowadays that gets less and less interesting... back in the day with PS1 and N64... or even earlier with SNES and MegaDrive games... that was really cool to see. how ports were handles, what tricks were used by developers to take advantage of the hardware of each system and so on.
or the crazy ass compression work an giant cartridge of Resident Evil 2 on N64! that's just a really cool thing to me to see.

but even now it still interests me, the Switch made things more interesting again tho gotta say.

Lol console gamers are about to find out what ray tracing costs in terms of performance.

not as much as many want to make you believe, especially if it is cleverly implemented.
you can run Control at console settings at 30fps with raytracing on a GTX1070, a card with no RT hardware acceleration at all and is just a bit more powerful than an Xbox One X

 

[Thirty7ven]

How do you know it's falsehoods?

Like I said time will tell

Because he admitted to lying. Then changed his story. Then talked about resolutions. Then he changed that. Then he speculated.

We know the game was being play tested on a PS4 pro. So unless the game was being play tested at 540P, the info is a bit weird no?

But sure buddy, time will tell and until it tells you will just spread the fud. We get it, you need this.

 

[skneogaf]

10 pages already on a ps5 game having optimisation issues. Probably won't be the only one if trying to match the more powerful xbox series x I imagine.

I'm sure it will be fine as will all ps5 games but this may be a sign that having a clocks that are constantly changing will be an issue for some games that need as high as possible speed.

[Dave_at_Home]

This fud is being reported on wccftech as well. These guys will report on anything.

 

[devilNprada]

Why does God of War on PS4 Pro has a Performance Mode and a High Quality Mode?

Did you just criticize someone about their reading comprehension?

 

[thelastword]

Hang on, I thought RE8 was confirmed as next gen only?

Where's this cross gen stuff coming from?

OK wasn't aware they dropped the last gen versions......But by virtue of that it means that the game which is 70% complete was developed in mind with last gen systems for the most part.......They have dropped the last gen consoles because of what? "Loadtimes" because you do a lot of traversal through the village and they wanted to increase ATD and fidelity as well, but then these are strengths right up PS5's alley.......SSD, Geometry Engine, higher clocked GPU. So it seems they are only now transitioning to next gen console strengths, so it's still work in progress as they seek to utilize the next gen machines.....Nothing to see here folks. I have a feeling since they dropped the last gen systems, they may take a bit more time to upgrade everything to meet next gen spec and their new ambitions for the title.........In essence, they are not using the next gen console strengths yet, nor is it optimized for it atm. This game is not releasing in February or early next year as some people think, you heard it here first......Expect a delay with their new ambitions.




Ohhh, and so much for current gen systems not holding back ambition and graphics for next gen......I guess after the recent showcase, we are just getting more answers to that question, which was obvious to many rational posters btw.....

Just because it's not what you want to hear no need to get to upset I understand a lot of you are mentally Invested in the new consoles.

It's a rumour you take it with a grain of salt and see what happens, the game is not out untill 2021 anyway.

Spread what fud? What exactly do "I need" ?

Need anything else ELI5 for you?

 

[Naked Lunch]

In all seriousness, 3rd party performance is a big deal.
99% of the modern games I play are multiplat.
I keep seeing nuggets of info that reminds me of the 360/PS3 days.
It will be interesting to see how things pan out.

 

[Siri]

I myself was barely able to run RE7 - because I nearly shat myself. Honestly, that game, for me, was almost too frightening. There were a couple times I literally shouted out loud, reactively. It’s rare that I ever react to anything. RE7 was a great game for that reason.

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

Not sure if this is legitimate or not, but this could be why we are hearing rumblings about mid generation consoles already. I have a feeling that these next generation consoles are not quite as powerful as they are claiming or they really have to do extensive research to get the most out of them.

there we have it! the PS5 is easily scared! how will the affect game development? Silent Hill reboot exclusive on Series X because the PS5 can't handle it and always starts to hide in a corner and cry while playing it?

 

[Dave_at_Home]

The most powerful 1080P system ever. What a absolute shit show no wonder they are trying to buy up marketing and DLC rights everywhere to force developers to gimp the Xbox version.

What ever happened with the system being easier to be develop for and with the SSD that will revolutionize gaming as we know it.

The only thing happening here is how willing you are to actually believe the PS5 is a total shitshow and Sony doesn't know what they're doing when designing hardware. Doesn't matter what we've seen so far during the PS5 reveal, Unreal 5 demo, or first hand developer accounts. Nope. What matters here is If this current rumor makes you feel better about buying a Series X, than hold on for dear life.

This goes to show how a mod from a forum can stir shit. He dropped this, then said it's referring to a demo from several months ago (probably pre-alpha going by the estimated release date) and suddenly it's news.

Edit: and of course this is being shared by the discord FUD machine. Guys: I've seen gameplay at 4k 60fps on the PS5 with ray tracing. I'm yet to see next gen gameplay on the series X. That's all.

 

[Smoke6]

Xbox Series X to harness the power of Direct X 12 Ultimate ray tracing

Along with the latest AMD and Nvidia graphics cards

www.techradar.com

"With DirectX 12 Ultimate, advanced effects such as ray tracing are expected to reach more games sooner, and it makes developers’ lives easier by allowing them to create games using the same common graphics API and graphics architecture for both PCs and consoles,” Team Red(AMD) said in a statement.

That’s crazy seeing how halo has to get it patched into its game and that’s a launch title!

 

[MasterCornholio]

Yes, hence "vetted"

Need anything else ELI5 for you?

A couple of hairy legs if you have them.

 

[Whitecrow]

I call BS.

Running perfect on XSX but struggling on PS5 even at 1080 is something only possible if you sabotage your own game on purpose. This makes no sense at all.

Fanboy wars should not even exist.

 

[shaddam]

And xbox series s does not have problems?

 

[BaneIsPain]

Without a doubt, RT patch will solve everything

 

[me0wish]

Lol console gamers are about to find out what ray tracing costs in terms of performance.

Nah, the ssd can handle them just fine, Sony keeps winning.

 

[DavJay]

I hope ps5 doesn’t hold back series x this gen.

You know he was saying that there was no lockheart, right?
What kind of imaginary developer that is "vetted" to "have access to both dev kits" would say that?
Even the cleaning person of the office building where dev kits are located would be more knowledgeable on the subject.

 

[Stooky]

Phill Spencer and Xbox stans after reading ‘insider’ post....

 

[Justin9mm]

Hilarious and apparently Sony has the marketing on this game. Reminds me of RDR2, Sony had the marketing, but it looked like crap on the Pro but was absolutely gorgeous in native 4K on the X.

Native 4K? LOL

 

[Max_Po]

I found an equally entertaining gif

 

[Night.Ninja]

The fact that you are deciding to ignore hard facts says it all.

What hard facts?

The only hard facts about RE8 was the choppy frame rate, but it's still early days and time will tell.

And the rumours he dropped about RE8 before the reveal seemed to be all correct.

 

[Silver Wattle]

What Res is the XBSX version meant to be running at? If it's higher than 1080p than this "insider" is full of shit.

 

[Rossco EZ]

Native 4K? LOL

i believe it is native 4K on one X

To be fair didn't a lot of insiders think lockhart was cancelled?

Better example is how he implied the github leak was fake. He was the main guy cited as to why the PS5 wouldn't be 36CUs by playstation fans for months.

 

[Justin9mm]

Exactly, the performance difference would not be that significant. There is some sort of FUD going on here. If this is true then someone is overlooking something that is causing the unstable performance on the PS5. It's got nothing to do with performance capability. Not if they saying it can't even run 1080p but XSX is fine lol

 

[JerryinSoCal]

coming early next year



true, the Series X also has a CPU advantage tho, and a large part of the RAM runs faster as well

but like I said, there is also a lot more under the hood that made the One X just way more efficient than the Pro, which will most likely not be the case here

Yes the One X had more than just those obvious advantages, the GPU was also a year newer and likely more efficient

The new consoles are using parts from the same year and same generation of hardware, there are customizations done to both and rumor is Sony did more customizing than MS but we'll have to wait and see on if that's true and if so how much of a difference does it really make. Anyone who thinks the Series X is going to run something at native 4K/60 and the PS5 can't handle it at 1080p/60 is going to be in for a shock lol.

 

[Justin9mm]

Native 4K? LOL

Ok, just looked it up, my bad. I thought it was like 1800p but damn!

 

[Dabaus]

The most glaring hole in all of this is a Japanese third party not only has Xbox series x dev kits but has also had them long enough to get games running at 4k60 all the mean while we’ve yet to see a single first party Xbox game said to be running on a series x devkit. Sounds like someone is trying to throw sand in the gears so to speak of PlayStations momentum because it’s been a rough few weeks. The fact we’re debating “power” again, a place where ms has felt most comfortable touting the past 3-4 years tells me this probably a coordinated attack of sorts.

 

[Justin9mm]

i believe it is native 4K on one X

My bad, did not realise it was Native, thought it was like 1800p

 

[JerryinSoCal]

Better example is how he implied the github leak was fake. He was the main guy cited as to why the PS5 wouldn't be 36CUs by playstation fans for months.

I believe he said it was outdated which it was, that was a work in progress number not the final performance metric which so many xbox fans still cling to as proof of something, that they wish were true but isn't.

As far as lockhart it could be that devs thought it was cancelled at one point because MS wasn't communicating with them and it sounds like they got a lot f negative feedback from devs when the idea was first brought up to begin with.

 

[DavidGzz]

So it seems they are only now transitioning to next gen console strengths, so it's still work in progress as they seek to utilize the next gen machines.....Nothing to see here folks.

LMAO. Nothing to see here folks. You'd be doing a little dance and ragging all over the XSX if this were about it instead. It's about the PS5, time to wave it off.

He wasn't informed on Lockheart's plans. Most developers didn't even have the dev kits for XSX last year. Not sure what's shocking about it to you.

 

[Rossco EZ]

My bad, did not realise it was Native, thought it was like 1800p

no worries, you can’t tell the difference unless you zoom in anyway.

 

[Bryank75]

So this game just black-screens on Lockheart? Yeah?

 

[CatLady]

Native 4K? LOL

YES, native 4K

Red Dead Redemption 2 looks and plays best on Xbox One X

PlayStation 4 - and latterly, PS4 Pro - have taken centre-stage in Red Dead Redemption 2's pre-release marketing campai…

www.eurogamer.net

However, the implementation of certain effects - shadow quality and the intensity of depth of field - is tied to rendering resolution, an aspect of the presentation that varies substantially between each version of the game. At the top of the stack sits Xbox One X, rendering natively on ultra HD displays and looking magnificent. Taking the runner-up position here is PlayStation 4 Pro, which uses a reconstruction technique - likely checkerboarding - to take a native 1920x2160 framebuffer up to 4K.

Nah it will look like a mosaic.

 

[Nerd Strangler]

Its proof he had no idea about the hardware. He told people to "move past" the github leak in a speculation thread when it was a completely accurate leak of final hardware minus some boost clocks.

DEVELOPER is the key word here, and I was told on top that "yes he is a trusted and vetted developer that has access on both dev kits"

logic dictates that he is lying, so in consequence those vetted for him are lying too, etc etc. , end of story.

thing is, I am not anybody's father in here so as to make it my obligation to set people's minds working correctly, especially for already known things.
so, those of you that want to be fooled by people trying to fool you? be my guest!!
