59.94 fps, what a joke, pre-order cancelled

 

[Glimpse_Dog]

Think these updates would come to a PS5 patch?

 

[Loudninja]

 

[Cactuar]

[J-Skee]

In light of the recent news... buy this, PC peeps. The game has improved far beyond what the current critic scores suggest.

 

[BarcaTheGreat]

If this sales really well, I wonder if the ship has really sailed on the sequel.. A diffent studio could do it given Bend is doing something else

 

[Mega1X]

Man. I really want Sony to incorporate trophies in their pc games :(

 

[Neoxon]

Oh cool, maybe I'll bite once I get a better PC.

 

[Toumari]

I love how they use a real picture of a DualSense 4 and Steam Controller but a silhouette for the Xbox controllers.

 

[QuigleyMcShine]

Can you still get the Death Stranding gas tank that looks like it has a baby in it?

 

[Trago]

AAAAAAaaaaaand pre-ordered!

 

[JEH]

That sweet 59.94 fps footage

 

[vixolus]

The drawings of the Xbox controllers at the end instead of a picture 😂

 

[Serpens007]

I'm really interested on this, whill play it down the road

 

[gimbles123]

Any word on mixed input support? I want to give mouse-like gyro aiming a go.

 

[Stacey]

Day One, Gonna look incredible at 21:9

 

[Transistor]

Nice! I love this game, so I'm happy more will get to play it!

 

[Undrey]

Damn this got me hyped to replay the game. Good trailer.

 

[pswii60]

That sweet 59.94 fps footage

Only it isn't. It's 30fps.

 

[Anno]

I live on Old Sawmill Rd irl, and have described the pack of children around here as the Old Sawmill Horde, so this was a little jarring to read lol

 

[Stacey]

£39.99, good price.

 

[Imitatio]

Seeing a Switch Pro Controller in a PS video is so weird.

Also, yay! 59.94 fps crew!!

 

[dmr87]

Who's doing the port?

 

[tusharngf]

super excited !!

 

[Deleted member 18025]

Wonder if Sony decides to pull through on a sequel if this gets higher MC scores than the PS4 version.

/s

 

[texhnolyze]

Pre-purchase is live as well.

 

[J-Skee]

I love how they use a real picture of a DualSense 4 and Steam Controller but a silhouette for the Xbox controllers.

And the Switch Pro Controller as well lol.

Sony Bend

Our team has been hard at work to deliver our new and returning players a unique experience with Days Gone on PC. Here are the added features that can be seen from the trailer.

Apparently it's in-house.

50 euro?

Big nooope.

 

[Mórríoghain]

I am so excited about this game. It is like budged Last of Us II for us PC players! I say that in a way that it is a Sony "prestige" game coming to PC, like Horizon.

 

[Serious Sam]

Think these updates would come to a PS5 patch?

Click to shrink...

Mose of the changes are PC specific and don't make sense on a console. I guess a "patch" that increases foliage and LOD distance could happen on PS5 if they convert it to native PS5 game.

 

[J-Skee]

Any word on mixed input support? I want to give mouse-like gyro aiming a go.

It's supported in the PS4 version. Have to imagine it'll be in PC as well.

 

[Tovarisc]

Most likely will dip in, bonus points for native UW support.

Heard game is slowburner at start and something one should power through to get into good parts.

 

[YuSuzzune]

Lol 50€

 

[Lashley]

£40? lmao i'll wait for a sale

 

[Mifec]

I didn't enjoy this game at all. It's an uninspired boring world with boring characters and an even more boring and badly told story. Played it after all the patches that allegedly made it better.

If you just wanna ride a motorcycle and shoot and zombies then you can still get it but don't expect anything much from it.

 

[N7_Kovalski]

Such a good game. Play it if you haven't. The characters take some time to develop, but the back half of this game is really good.

 

[Neoxon]

It's supported in the PS4 version. Have to imagine it'll be in PC as well.

I know about the PS4 version. I'm just curious about if the option to map the mouse to the gyroscope will be available on PC.

 

[Princess Bubblegum]

Do we know who is doing the porting? After HZD I sure hope it isn't Virtuos.

 

[Gnaget1891]

Looks kinda rough

 

[texhnolyze]

Interestingly, this time it's uploaded on Playstation official channel, unlike Horizon which was handled by Guerilla. Horizon also got a PSBlog post, but only at release day, unlike this one. So yeah, it looks like they're not hiding the ports anymore going forward.

I know this doesn't make the game better, but how much did you play?
I played for about 8-ish hours until it really clicked for me, and it ended up becoming one of my favorite games that year. Not ideal obviously!

Will definitely play through it again for PC!
