Star Wars Jedi: Survivor PS5 Update Available Now, Here Are the Patch Notes

I'm long done with the game but I'm curious to see if this one actually makes the performance decent, as that was definitely the its biggest flaw.

Hopefully Digital Foundry will do a follow up showing the re-worked Performance Mode in action, but this sounds like the patch I have been waiting for before jumping in on this one.

@StrickenBiged ya I'd like to see an update too.

I'm also hoping that Respawn does a PS5 PRO update patch when that happens. Would like to see a stable frame rate with more Ray Tracing in Quality mode. It's taken forever to get this far. Back on topic I'd like to see another video to see how this game does with today's patch on a PS5 Pro.

I own the game, I just haven't started playing it yet because of these patches lol. I got it on sale. This really hurts EA more than me.

I was looking forward to getting round to this but the talk of it being a bit of a technical disaster made me hold off!

Glad I held off on this game.
Okay, so performance mode is now seemingly solid 60fps. What about image quality too? Don't really want to play in upscaled 864p and if the scaling breaks apart in motion.
Hopefully Digital Foundry revisits this game.
If solid, will get in a sale.

I just got EA pass but I’ve never been able to get into Star Wars in general.. my cousin is a freak about SW and tried to get me to watch them in ‘proper’ order.. I got disinterested 30 mins in..

Would a non Star Wars fan enjoy this game?

Freaking finally. Was holding off to play.
Can confirm that it now holds stable 60fps in performance mode and no screen tearing.

I‘m waiting for digital foundry. Maybe I can finally play that title now

@WolfyTn I feel yes, maybe. It feels like Uncharted in Space with a sprinkle of Souls-like. The difficulty varies if you want a challenge; the hardest mode can be pretty challenging. The Story is not it's strongest suit, so if you don't Like Star Wars I think if the gameplay appeals to you, you will find it fun.

As soon as it’s stable I’ll go back for the platinum. Great game mechanically but it ran like absolute garbage. It definitely should have been delayed.

@WolfyTn I'm not the biggest SW fan (enjoyed the Original and Prequel Trilogies, hated the Sequel Trilogy, watched Rogue One, and have no interest in any of the Disney+ TV shows) but I enjoyed the first of these two games a lot. If you haven't played it, I'd start there (I think it was free on PS+ Essential a little while back...?) and decide whether you liked that before jumping into this sequel.

It was never that bad on PS5, broke my mind people complaining

@EchoRange I thought it was terrible on PS5, screen tearing galore, frame hitches and find quality mode better than performance. Was surprised it fared as well in reviews as it did.
Hopefully this patch sees some improvement as I stopped playing it was that distracting.

Too late for many i suspect. Most are likely waiting for a sale. I waited on fallen order and felt far more satisfied with what it was and my enjoyment of it knowing i paid less than half price for it. My opinion of the game's shortcomings would have been far different ha di pad full. price.

The fact that survivor released in the state it was is unacceptable and I am done supporting the broken release model. Pretty lame it took as long as it has for a performance fix attempt given the dev and publisher resources.

I played for 2 hours and quit to come back to it. Glad I did. Sounds like this and CyberPunk that I also put off is now going to pay off for me.

I have been playing this in Quality Mode and other than traversal stutter, the games has been pretty good performance-wise.

The visual bugs are quite humorous but surprisingly common.

the resolution in performance mode is still poor sadly. framerate is much better but still has slight slow down to it in more action heavy moments. it feels like we are going to have to wait longer for this to be polished up to a current gen standard if you ask me.

I held off on buying at release due to the stated performance issues with the game. Glad it's finally been patched up I may just pick it up today as I believe it's on sale!

This was a buy from me till I read digital foundries piece. Now it's unlikely I'll play it this generation and even then not on console. I ambition is fine I guess, but I'll take razor sharp resolution & good framerate over RT and effects any day.

Basically adding all the content they are going to have to create for the PS4 version of the game, as the PS4 version can't do ray tracing, shame the studio has been force to do this by the bosses rather than refine their raytracing code and proceed to the third game.

I got this at launch and am still playing it. I’m on hour 80, trying to clear all maps and optional bosses. It’s really a great game. My main complaint is it’s too big, actually. It can be overwhelming the amount of things to see and do. The combat and exploration is satisfying enough to keep me engaged with it all and the story has really picked up toward the second half.

I’ve been playing in standard 30 fps mode and haven’t had any major issues. It’s steady, by my eyes, save for one area on the largest planet that stuttered for a few seconds toward the late game with a lot of enemies and NPC’s on the map. I’m not sensitive to frame rate so it’s been fine and many of the planets are quite beautiful. The facial animation is relatively poor compared to lovely environments and finely detailed rendering of your incredibly customizable lightsaber and hairstyles.

@NotSoCryptic

Sorry, PS5 Pro? Did you mean PS4 Pro or do you have a dev kit? If yes for dev kit, can we be friends?

Well, playing at quality mode is actually better, and in performance mode ia also better... mind you I never have got problemas with tearing and else, but I prefer raytracing and a more "realistic" visuals, which is funny, you lot do love pixelated nostalgia games, or any game at 30fps only because you just love them i.e. Zelda and RDD, and the screen tearing usually means that your Nan's telly is not capable of displaying games that required 2.1 HDMI... I'm enjoying the NG+, for me it's a better patch.

I finished it three days ago, dammit. Solid 60 fps in performance mode would have been nice.

Games good I don't count this in star wars canon or anything Disney has done. Just a fun game that's all.

Both modes are performing better now. Still not perfect.

Performance mode runs much better and looks fine without the RTGI but the image quality is still very poor.

Quality mode has better input response and does run better overall. However, the RTGI is of a very low quality - have they reduced this setting? 🤔 it wasn't great to start with but the blocky squares of lighting walls seem to pop in slower or not at all. This isn't in every area though.

Overall I'd still suggest quality mode over performance as with most games these days. The 60fps isn't a lock and the resolution is way too low - we should get used to this standard for such modes now.

do we think they will actually improve the resolution in performance mode?
this is an actual question..
what are the chances

@Powerplay94 Timothy zahns thrawn trilogy is the only sequel trilogy to the original starwars trilogy. All books we got a scrap of a trilogy instead. Lol 😂 I bailed to thought it would of been good but no I'm a fan of Katie Sackhoff check out battle star galactica with her in it.the writers today don't respect the source material that's why it's bad and absokha 🤣😂🤦 nope il stick with the book thanks 👍 , I like the story their making here looking forward to the third more cal kestis adventures.

@Whately86 PS5 Pro. No.

@NotSoCryptic How are you mentioning a console that hasn't even been announced yet?

(Perhaps it would be best not to be friends, if you believe you're playing a console that isn't out yet)

@Whately86 How are you not mentioning a console that has credible sources pointing to its existence and even Microsoft says is coming.

"(Perhaps it would be best not to be friends, if you believe you're playing a console that isn't out yet)"

I believe I made it clear with "no". You're not intune with whats going on enough for me to want to talk to you beyond a comment section thread. You'd make a terrible friend. You're the last person I'd share what dev kits I do have in my possession.

@NotSoCryptic Yeah, better not be friends.

Doesn't make sense how you talk about wanting to see this game with this new patch perform on a PS5 pro, if the pro hasn't even been announced and much less released. Which led to my question if you had a dev kit.

Someone who can't be clear about what they're talking about must be hell to play with.

Keep your imaginary PS5 pro, hope digital foundry makes a special video just for you

Today I checked Frame Rate and it's fixed, it's Amazing Game now and even Graphics has been tweeked with better colors and no frame rate drops and I already accepted game as it is. Forspoken is also fixed and I would compare it with Secret Of Evermore on SNES among other Square Games.
