Re: How Is Control on PS4 After Patch 1.03?

Serf

I have found the patch has made things worse on a pro.
The stop after clearing a control point is gone but the map still takes an age to load in and the slowdown is now actually worse when enemies appear.
I’m still enjoying the game though.

I’m really enjoying the game although I have had four game ending crashes.
Saving is a pain but I don’t think the loading times are too bad. It’s a minute to get the first menu up then I timed it at 1 min 18 secs from hitting continue to the game starting. Menu and conversation loads within the game are annoying but only a few seconds long. A solid 7 in my opinion but probably less if I think about lockpicking or pickpocketing! 😁

Re: Poll: What Kind of Games Will You Be Cosying Up With This Holiday?

Going to restart Horizon Zero Dawn as I’ve bought the expansion. I’m about halfway through the new Wolfenstein which is ok providing I play on the easiest level.
Also, I’m about 5 hours into Xenoblade on the switch which has got me hooked already, it also looks great portable and docked which makes a change.

Mario Odyssey which is fantastic and Assassins Creed Origins which is also fantastic.
The world created for Assasins Creed is phenomenal and the gameplay on the whole is far more enjoyable than the last two games. A real quality game and even the side missions are worthwhile.

@Splat

I am really enjoying the game too.
Although the facial animations are a bit iffy the voice acting is generally good, the story got me hooked straight away and so far from only about 5hrs of playtime I would give it a solid 7 or an 8.
I've just finished Horizon which was excellent but this game is very good too.

Re: Talking Point: Are You Enjoying Horizon: Zero Dawn on PS4?

The game is fantastic. Graphically it's flawless and it runs smoothly with a great draw distance and fidelity with only minimal pop-in when you zoom in with the bow. Admittedly that is on a pro.
I am also pleasantly surprised by the dialogue in the cutscenes, whilst some is a bit cheesy and stilted Aloy injects a fair bit of humour with hers and has a slightly sarcastic tone which I like.
Four hours in and it's far exceeded my expectations.
Genuinely wondering if I should have held off on the switch/ Zelda preorder.

Re: Talking Point: Are 'Live Games' Really What You Want on PS4?

Serf

I can't play online games as i can only get online via satellite which is fine for internet, Netflix etc but with 800m/s latency it's not ideal for online gaming.
Destiny works but I am alone, no other players appear.
I can't even connect with Nioh so I obviously prefer offline gaming by necessity.

Re: Poll: Does The Last Guardian Dazzle After a Decade?

Serf

I'm only about 2 hrs in but I'm enjoying it immensely.
It looks nice, beautiful in a stylised way and runs really well so far.
The camera is a pain, I increases the speed which helped but it drifts back to where it wants to be leaving you to fight it quite a lot of the time.
The atmosphere of the game is fantastic, unlike anything out there at the moment and a really nice change. Highly recommended.

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of Final Fantasy XV on PS4?

Serf

I've enjoyed it thus far, just started chapter 5.
It does seem very disjointed but also enjoyable, certainly not a masterpiece at this stage.
I've adjusted the combat to be semi-paused which I think works better and the game certainly looks very nice.
Spent about two hours wandering around a cave while I was around level 7 only to find the boss at the end was level 45 which was a bit frustrating.
Cooking and photographer are nice asides but fishing is annoying.
7 out of 10 for me.

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of Watch Dogs 2 on PS4?

Serf

Well, this is definitely going against the general concensus but I've played for about 8 hours and I've had to give it up for now as I've found it incredibly dull.
I completed the first watch dogs but I think it's highly unlikely that I'll be finishing this.
I just don't find it any fun at all. The missions are quite challenging and it all looks fairly nice but it's just incredibly bland with no soul at all.
The characters have no depth, the dialogue makes me cringe and there just seems a huge disconnect between where the story is going and your actions in missions.
The Scientology parody has been praised in reviews, and is the last story mission that I've done, but failed to engage me in any way.
Sorry to disagree with everyone but I found the last two assassins creed's incredibly flawed but far more enjoyable than this.
I'll be trading this pretty swiftly and finishing dishonoured 2.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy a PS4 Pro?

@get2sammyb
Greatly improved on 1080p screens?
I can't tell the difference to be honest. Bought mine as I worked a Sunday and spent that overtime money on it. It looks nice and is definitely quieter but I've played disnonored2 and titanfall 2 and they look and run identical to my old eyes!
