VGTech: DMC5 Console Comparison - Release Version
- Thread starter chandoog
- Start date
Cutscene FPS is awful on all consoles it looks like. Definitely going PC version for that 90+frame goodness
The only one they dropped was the "pedal" setting, and they dropped it "to the metal".
I dont know if this is a joke or how they actually labelled their settings haha
Well, to their defense, even if i agree with you at the end, devs stated anthem was native 4k on X, when finaly it is dynamic 4k.
Even if i totally respect your opinion, for me framerate is king, as i think pushing resolution over framerate is a dumb move ( or at least provide dynamic resolution over horizontal axis ).
During the boss fight, you can often see more than 5 fps difference between those 2. And even 2fps difference can be what separates smooth framerate and tearing/stuttering.
Worth noting that the Xbox release tested is a patch behind and not using later enhancements. I don't know why this test was done this early.
RE engine looks softer on X despite higher resolution. Happened with RE 7 and REmake 2. The demos for Devil May Cry 5 also seemed to show this.
PS4 Pro is slightly better it seems.
But if you need 4K, X is the way to go. I doubt you'd even notice the few frame drops
I play like, less than 2 feet away, so think the X would probably be a better bet for me.
Thats so odd. I was under the impression RE2 looked incredible on the X.
If you note, I said nothing about the resolution only about the mode or type of rendering. The dev stated native rendering while it was assumed to be CB and its not.
The only problems with the RE Engine are its lack of Switch support, the fact that only Division 1 is using it, & the current reliance on scanning in models. I can forgive the first point since it'll make the RE Engine a viable option for next-gen consoles, but I hope the latter two are rectified in the near future.
Probably medium judging by past games and myself owning a 580 hooked up to a 4K screen

OP
It does look incredible. It's just that the X version uses FXAA + TAA versus just TAA on Pro. The AA coverage is superior with less shimmering, but it ends up causing the image to look a bit more blurrier than Pro even though it's running more pixels.
Unless I'm missing something, the figures don't make sense. 1800p is 69% of 4K, so a difference of 31% but there's a ~40% gap in performance. I know making comparisons isn't this straightforward but you'd think there should be less of a performance difference considering the hardware.
It's not exactly like for like obviously, but I saw up to 10 fps difference during the last part of the video. Average frame rate gap seems more than 2-3fps to me... more like 4-5fps during that last part. Pretty considerable difference IMO, especially for an action game like DMC. But 2160CBR vs 1800CBR is also considerable, so it basically comes down to IQ vs performance.
IIRC, if the final game is like the demo, I believe the XB1X version had extra AA over the PS4 Pro version that softened the image slightly, but gave a more stable image. Or was that RE2?
It seems devs are truly getting a hang of the X hardware. Devs have been pushing 4K a lot more in their games.
Lol
It does. Better than Pro. Pro has a lot of rough lines all over the place.
Depends on TV size and sitting distance, but you won't notice that difference in resolution when you sitting 5-6 feet ( around 1.6 m ) away in front of 50+ inch TV. Anyway, you'll notice frame drops regardless of sitting distance.
Tastes are tastes but dips 45 fps very frequently to be brutally honest vs a less often 48-50fps on the pro in the final part of video, it's not a good sign for the more demanding scenes. Call such difference marginal for a 30% of more pixels with a less sharper IQ .... what's exactly the point to have such res boost if performance and even sharpness is worst compared the pro?

I have both. Both version have pro and contraries in the IQ. Performance indeed are better on the X.
Went with the PS4 Pro for this one despite owning both the Pro and an X1X. Frame rate is king in DMCV + strongly prefer the Dualshock controller. Will probably pick up the PC version too at some point but I at least wanted the HDR OLED goodness too.
Xbox controller for dante though....I own an X, but still choose base ps4 over it.
(Double dipping on PC anyway)
I don't get it why people continue to repeat it. Game is even less sharp on the X. Who gives a fuck of 30% of more pixels if it's not visible in clarity? Just for pure math? And dips at 45fps it's a minuscule difference now? I could understand to prefer to play on the X for personal tastes but no need to downplay some problematics.

Do we know if the PC version has HDR support? I might consider it over the X if it does and will just use the Shield to stream it.
Hilarious people saying they're going Pro considering the how minimal the differences are in performance.
But it's not minimal? Watch the last part of the video, rather than looking at the averages.
If they are minimal why we should opt for the X if it's less sharp? I thought the point of the higher resolution was that.
