Re: Battlefield 6 Boss Says Call of Duty Only Exists 'Because EA Were D*cks'

MattSilverado

@Dubplant of course! rubber ducks, nice and easy.

Never heard of this guy, I've played MOH back in the day, what an amazing game, same as the first COD, etc, but now I'm away from FPS like for so many years I can't remember the last one I've played, maybe COD 4 campaing. Never multiplayer...
But, what I wanted to point out is how much talent, leadership and vision this guy must have... hats off!

Re: Space Marine 2 Patch 5.0 Adds PS5 Pro Support, New Mission, Customisation Options

@NintenGuy check the facts. Compare visual quality and/or what you get from it. I'm not dramatic. I got a Pro day one (and I think PSSR will be key and will get better), I just pointing Sony is leaving this to luck, luck being how much work/effort is the developer putting into PSSR. Take Alan Wake 2, can you say Remedy is not up to the task? But the result is pretty bad, so what's up? Is the internal resolution is too low then don't use PSSR, etc.
But the point is, yes, I keep saying Sony is in a bad position. Please read the release notes for EVERY PS5 Pro patched have, they say "you will get better quality..." and do you think it's what you are getting? It's kind of a joke. I play games since late 80s, PC, consoles, I did own very much all early 3d accelerators so I do know what you get as an early adopter, your mileage can vary... It s ok if some implementations/games with PSSR are better than others, but there situation is kind of comical right now. You get a game with PSSR and you almost know it will look worse that without it, that's a fact, not my words. But in the end I don't get how the devs release something in bad shape and call it "better" (say Jedi survivor). Enough... Just wanted to get it out of my chest.

@JustCameHereToSay yes, I know, but also of course they know "the roadmap" to get good quality, in the end if Sony needs more time to train the model... it's already known all the work required for dlss to look good... maybe should have launched PSSR later (I mean for games is bad shape), or issue a statement letting the users know about this. I'm a software engineer so I understand about incremental improvements and else, but it's NOT a step in the right direction what Sony did, horrible renditions of PSSR free in the wild.
I hope we get decent PSSR for all games, but the lack of feedback from Sony is alarming. Also what devs are doing, their implementation is a mess and they release it anyway!

@Bamila Sony is really in a very bad position with PSSR... Implementations are really mixed in results/quality. I don't understand what level of QA is undergoing from both the devs and Sony itself, I would have imagined that for the firsts titles Sony would be more involved in helping to achieve good results... So it's either "devs are left alone to their luck" or PSSR at it's current state is not good. And I do have a Pro, it's not that I'm talking just because. The thing is you now read "... using PSSR to improve the quality..." and there are more chances that quality will suffer other than improve. A shame.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Fallout 4's Next-Gen Version?

MattSilverado

I booted up my PS4 saved games, from almost EIGHT years ago... "story" is completed but I think I've 70% of the map to explore yet. 60fps is amazing, and load times are quite fast, around 5 seconds, I remember those being quite slow back then.

Graphics are showing their age mainly talking about lighting... this game would be awesome with real time global illumination, everything is so flat that it hurts.

Re: Meta Quest 3 Revealed as Cheaper, All-In Rival to PS5's PSVR2

MattSilverado

@gollumb82 😅 well... That's it. I've Alyx and while I've enjoyed it I stopped playing it after a couple of chapters because I said "I will play it only when I can run it maxed out" 🤣🤣🤣... So I think it will be with the 5080 or 4080ti or whatever comes next 🤣... Same for dirt rally 2, waiting for decent quality. I'm getting a Fanatec DD Pro GranTurismo edition with H shifter and handbrake (replacing my old g29) in a few days, so maybe I will go back to the PCVR racing games also...

Re: Meta Quest 3 Revealed as Cheaper, All-In Rival to PS5's PSVR2

@gollumb82 quest2 is nice, I stopped using it with PCVR because my PC couldn't handle the quality I was expecting
with the required framerate... I've a 3070 and while I can play any game, using high graphic settings or of course going up with the resolution causes framerate dips etc and I opted to wait for the next gen of GPUs... But now the 4090 is expensive and has some issues I think need some ironing... So I will wait to the next refresh on the curreng GPU gen. Meanwhile I enjoy GT7 with the PSVR2, it's something awesome. Overall the Quest2 is an amazing piece of hardware for the price.

Re: Rumour: Sony's Allegedly Cut PSVR2 Production Plan by 20% in 2023

MattSilverado

@PlatinumKing can't stop playing it. It's just amazing. It will take another generation of HMD tech to have really great visuals. The sweet spot of PSVR2 is really small, and greater FOV would be appreciated 😅... Anyway it's great. I've had the PSVR and also have a quest2, it's not much better than Q2 in PCVR apart from the OLED screen.

Re: Out Today: PSVR2 Brings Next-Gen VR to the Masses

MattSilverado

There's an option missing on the poll... I WANT to buy PSVR2 right NOW... but Sony is not selling it -yet- on my country (Argentina, although it's advertised on the local web page)... So even if I have the cash in hand and the will to skip sleeping in order to enjoy it, I can't. I did buy the PSVR on launch back in it's day and also have a Quest2, so I'm very excited now... I guess I can only wait.
