If it's anything like the CX mate as long as it's enabled on the Series X dash, it's enabled on the TV.
I knew performance was going to be rough... but I at least expected quality mode to have locked FPS. What the hell From, I just can't play a game with FPS jumping all over the place, it gives me motion sickness. Hope it gets better by the time I manage to get a PS5
I'd say this game exceeds the remake in every single way minus graphics and, you are talking about a vast open world compared to closed environments.
Consoles rez has a DRS range of 1512p -2160p@60fps in perf mode.
And a 2160p lock in the quality mode that also funny enough... targets 60fps or better put is unlocked.
Simple fix? Lockperformance mode to 1440p@60fps. Cap fps in quality mode to 30fps.
Why they didn't do this... we will never know.

Oh yeah I'll definitely agree with that. Gameplay looks a few steps ahead. Im just tired of major releases coming out with so many performance issues. When the best performing version of your game by default is to run the last gen version on newer hardware eliminating any next gen additions is unacceptable.
That hitching is going to be super annoying tho, almost everyone is mentioning it despite any VRR tech on PC.
Fair play man, it's good to see some people mentioning it. At the end of the day, it's something that directly effects how people play the game, and so I was disappointed that more outlets didn't mention it.
I understand that most are reviewing it purely on their enjoyment of the game, hence the scores, but at the end of the day, many reviews serve as the basis for a lot of people deciding whether or not to buy the game. And as such, things like this should be highlighted.
OK but the thing is, all of the previous FromSoft games had worse problems, and they are collectively my favorite games ever. I've played them on everything from the PS3 and Xbox 360 to the PS5 and a chunky PC, and loved them all. So there is zero chance that this is going to impact my experience in any way. Obviously your mileage may vary but I don't play Soulsborne games for smooth frame rates.
well that kills the hype for me. my options are PS4 or PC. it's pathetic this is happening to PC which should be the better performing version but nah it's consoles. what a joke.
at this point they aren't getting the full asking price. i'm glad i cancelled my pre order when people started mentioning PC issues. they can fix their broken game or i'll wait for a good sale before they get my money.

Imagine how ugly it would be if he *wasn't* trying to match up the visuals heh.
Played Dark Souls at 60 fps on PC after quitting it halfway on PS3 was transformative.
It has *literally* never been this bad.
The PC version is a joke. Not talking about 30 fps.
maybe they shouldn't try to match up the visuals, and focus on matching the performance.
Oke how long is exactly the loading on PS5 and XSX and how much loading is there in the game. Need to have this info to make my final descision.
Neither version seems ideal at this point, "pick your poison" it seems. It's a shame to see such a masterfully designed game being thwarted by this level of technical roughness, but that's From Software I suppose.😅Hopefully they will be able to offer a more solid experience after a few patches.
6 years later, still waiting for that Bloodborne patch.
I disagree...being that we are talking about two completely different games at this point. If BP was the one making this, with Miyazaki at the helm, the game would have come out looking and performing a lot better than this. The issue here is whatever engine or however the devs at FS seem to go about their performance priorities, always ends p with them having badly performing games.
Its just not what they are good at. Let's not start comparing games here... as I doubt anyone is talking about the validity of the game itself, our issue is with its performance/IQ.
I'm still undecided between XSX or PS5 (I have a VRR OLED). If I had to jump in now, I would probably go with PS4 back compat since the only difference seems slightly lower res and grass density, however since I'm really enjoying HFW at the moment, I am in no rush and will wait to see if and how future patches address performance. I'm also hoping for Sony to add VRR support soon.
People need to remember that Bloodborne was 30fps dipped to like 20.
60 down to 45 will be excellent. Obviously not ideal and will be noticeable, but if you played through Bloodborne when it released and enjoyed yourself, you certainly shouldn't fear playing this on ps5.

Theoretically my tv supports VRR but I've never seen it in action. I'd like to see for myself how well it works. Are there any games on game pass I might want to check out that would do a good job showcasing it?
Load times would be the big one.
Nothing significantly changed from the network test (which in itself is many months old build).
Based on their pedigree I wouldn't bet on larger (or even notable) changes anytime soon unfortunately.

LG CX, Series X, VRR it is. See y'all in a few days.
Also, this thread is about performance, and it deserves to be called out, without compromise. This game will need multiple patches to smooth out performance, so it would be nice if we held off about the open world, graphical boot licking.

Depends on how much you can grab a C1 for. I managed to buy a 65" one about 3 weeks ago for £1330, so I was more than happy to pay it.
C2 seems to be another minor step up, even if it's a little bit brighter - if you can get a cheap C1, go for it.
I'm considering going with the G1 because that'll for sure give me the brighter panel. I can find C1s at Best Buy right now for $1300 and G1s for $1600, Now to decide if I'm gonna actually pull the trigger and buy one hahaha
Can I have both PS5 and PS4 versions at the same time on PS5? Do they act like different games with different save files?
Unless its broken beyond measure.... it doesn't. But it should.
If it did, devs would take it more seriously. I still stand by the fact that I feel even HFW should have had points docked from its review because of its IQ issues.
How a game looks (IQ, not to be mistaken with having the best graphics/art) and how it feels (fps/performance) is just as important as how it plays (gameplay).
Reviewers focus on the last bit, and only talk about the other two when its clearly and obviously bad. But they should treat them all nearly equally, being that outside gameplay, you spend all your time with the game dealing with the other two parts.
Think so, every game ask me do you want to install the ps4 version or ps5 or both. never tried installing both.
Well if that's the case, then clearly we have an issue with review consistency across all games.
Could this be improved by using a Gen 4 SSD? I've played several games where people have complained about stutters like this (RE Village for example) and i didn't have any issues. The Ascent had some asset streaming stutters as well.
Not gonna overcomplicate things just gonna play Ps5 version already pre installed.
Cant be worse than bloodborne
