How is the performance on ps5 base and pro after all these patches?

This is a dead game. 1-2 further patches and that’s it.

Translation PR -> English:
When the game is successful enough they will definitely think about it but for the moment there is nothing they want to announce.

This one is coming unexpected. Still some way to go until December.
Hopefully they are finally able to fix the PSSR issues on the pro in this game.

Ps5 pro
It was a good upgrade

Interesting article. Hoping for the best.
At least a 40 fps mode on the base ps5 and the pro should make a lot of people pretty happy. If they are going to achieve more, especially on the pro it’s of course highly welcome.

@nomither6 ps3 pro also had a lot of performance issues due to some bottlenecks.

@Hypoman there are no new options. They overhauled the preview screens a little bit. That’s all. Really not a huge change.

@Bamila it’s no Pro support as we would expect with a better upscaler like PSSR or an enhanced fidelity mode. Nevertheless it runs a bit better on the pro with a higher dynamic resolution. So in some way you benefit from the pro also for this game but it could be more for sure.

With VRR activated the game now seems to run with an unlocked framerate.
Performance mode usually between 60-80 fps on the pro.
Quality mode seems to run around 40 fps, which could make the mode much more attractive for many gamers.

@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare definitely. An update to FSR 3 or PSSR would help with the image quality. A 40 fps mode for the quality mode should also work at least for the ps5 pro. But I guess we’re too late in lifecycle of this game to see these features added.
Still having a glimpse of hope that the improved VRR support unlocks the framerate.

@Gremio108 yeah for sure. Game is already „completely“ patched. These new additions in 2.3 are nice to have but by far not impressive. Perfect start to begin the game with version 2.2.

@lazarus11 ah okay. Still Strange. 5 years or more than 3 years after the current gen release and we have better HDR settings and proper VRR xD
Alright.

Hype for this update was probably a bit too big when we see how it turns out now.
Nevertheless nice to see some improvements. VRR could mean it’s a bit smoother and we might have an unlocked framerate especially on the pro? Thought a VRR in general was already active in that game…
An FSR update in consoles would have been nice but I guess we won’t see this for an 5 almost 5 year old game at this point.

@dodgykebaab Bad Bad Sony won’t do this

Regular security updates. Same as on nearly any other kind of hardware. All fine

@Exerion76 due to Xbox fanboys the story currently is that MS carries more or less the PlayStation with it‘s games because they are all so heavily successful.

No surprise. Could be a good game with some further patches.

@Toot1st slightly too low xD
Again no one said that Sony is perfect or never had fails but I hope you get my point regarding the Xbox userbase, beside any fanboy stuff or brand loyalty.

@Ernie for sure the pass isn’t for free but it’s not on par with paying 50-80 bucks for a game. Usually Xbox players wait that games launch in game pass. You see this in the terrible low sales figures for 3rd party games on Xbox and the fact that some games not even launching physically for Xbox.

@JustinTimberlake your future sex album was so good man. You definitely got the money to purchase those games but think about all the other Xbox gamers who rely only on GamePass and not having those world wide hits.

@Questionable_Duck ok, probably some trade off deal for getting Gears or whatever. But as I said, sales with be terrible low nevertheless on the Xbox.

@Lock_Dock122 I can only assume that Sony helped Arrowhead to push the game and had some kind of exclusive deal for a limited time. Arrowhead is independent from Sony and it’s their game. I understand that they are looking to extend the userbase.
Welcome these couple of thousand people on Xbox who probably are willing to pay for the game.

Hmm sales will be disappointing anyway. It’s a regular release on the Xbox, the game won’t be included in the game pass.
Xbox audience is already relatively small and then buying a game… not many of them will be willing to pay for a game.

Don’t get acquired by Ms… that’s the main recommendation you can give them.

If it’s not on Game Pass most Xbox user won’t buy/play it anyway.

It took a looooong time but it’s still funny and a nice gimmick from Arrowhead.

Have the ps4 disc version of the game laying around since a couple of years here… the ps5 upgrade might be the reason to finally jump into the game.

@Dan-The-Van doesn’t seem so

@RagnarLothbrok exactly this is my point. And it’s just one example of the terrible marketing strategy and their terrible business decisions since the Xbox one.

@Vaako007 not really. Both consoles offering nearly the same capabilities, with their own unique strengths and weaknesses.
For the main point is that Ms did such a crazy advertising with these 12 TF and it turned out as such a disappointment. Series is a terrible gen of consoles.
Name one game that is really shining on the series consoles. Even Sony has its issues this gen but it isn’t as far as terrible as with the series consoles.

After all it’s so funny that this was one of Microsoft’s main titles over years to hype the capabilities of the series consoles.
Turned out as such a limited game in terms its gameplay.

Pretty nice with the upgrade of the first game. Still have the ps4 disc laying around here

It’s so sad for the team. Hopefully the talented stuff will find new jobs as soon as possible.
Won’t support Mindseye neither…

Still a glimpse of hope for ps5 pro additions with this patch…

@Jrs1 feel free just to start it. The patch won’t bring any overwhelming changes. For sure some nice additions but that’s nothing that should hold you back from starting the game. If there are any new cosmetics for character creation you can change it also during your playthrough.

Nice support by Bend

@Splat due to CD Peoject Red there won’t be one. Still having small hopes to see some improvements…

Did some rounds of driving in GT7 and yes, the tiny stutters from time to time while driving fast in the corners, there it was mainly noticeable, are gone. Happy with the fix!

@CielloArc hmm this concrete fix has nothing really to do with that.

Bad news: it was and still is a Bethesda game

@Sergo we will see what will happen with the pro. For sure it’s more or less a niche system. The base model will have by far the largest userbase.
AC shadows got a really nice upgrade over the base model. At the end, what is fully utilized? That’s a pretty subjective thing. Also the pro is mainly CPU limited and it won’t do any kind of magic.
Nevertheless I’m also happy with my pro console. Huge fan of GT7 so these improvements alone made it for me

Nice
As always these updates can not contain any huge changes all the time. These are often security related updates and that’s fine.
Are you blaming Apple and Co also for little security updates?

@Sergo why was Indiana Jones not optimized for the ps5? They did an amazing job with the series X version and ported it to the ps5 which has a similar architecture as the series x. Ps5 pro support was kind of disappointing but otherwise a nice optimised game.

@ButterySmooth30FPS the same over and over again with Phil and MS.
Only four games
Most of the time it’s exactly the opposite that happens.

MS: Hi-Fi Rush was such an amazing success, we need more of these AA games…

… closing the studio

Tango Gameworks couple of months later: Ok, let’s start again from here.

@L_Bosch I wouldn’t put too much hope into it.

@Bluemoon2008 negative Previews in magazines and online causing a lot of issues with such a release. They desperately trying to save the excitement for this game. I guess this won’t work…

We will see but honestly I don’t expect a outstanding good game due to the material we’ve seen so far.
It’s a lot of PR and marketing because of this former Rockstar producer but this alone doesn’t make a good game.
Would expect it will be somewhere around a 6/10. Might be ok in a sale and some further patches but that’s it.
