Xbox Series X hands-on previews coming soon. Update: First Series X game impressions / footage live
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
These are BC games, not games coded to Series X. Expect PS4 games on PS5 to have load times as well.
IGN said its "inaudible" in idle mode and when trying RDR2 it was much quieter than the XB1X.
These games aren't Series enhanced yet so they won't see the full difference, it's the same as someone popping an SSD in a PS4, you'll see somewhat of a difference but none of the software is optimized for it.
If that's a table it's definitely not showing for me at least.Xbox Series X load times
Game Xbox Series X Xbox One X CoD: Warzone 16 seconds 21 seconds Red Dead Redemption 2 52 seconds 1 min, 35 seconds The Outer Worlds 6 seconds 27 seconds Evil Within 2 33 seconds 43 seconds Sea of Thieves 20 seconds 1 min, 21 seconds Warframe 25 seconds 1 min, 31 seconds AC: Odyssey 30 seconds 1 min, 7 seconds No Man's Sky 1 min, 27 seconds 2 mins, 13 seconds Destiny 2 43 seconds 1 min, 52 seconds

A week with the Xbox Series X: load times, game performance, and more
A first look at what the Xbox Series X can do.www.theverge.com
On old games that are not optimized for Series X? That are dropping by 73% - that's dissapointing?
Sea of Thieves loading in only 20 seconds according to The Verge. It's going to be so good.
I wish someone tested Battlefield V and Battlefront 2 loading times.

Some of these loading times are really impressive, others not that much. :p
The OS always takes a big chunk out of it. You'll have even less space on the PS5.
You should do yourself a solid and check out how much usable space you actually have on your 500GB/1TB PS4.

Are you aware that 1 tb is NEVER 1000 GB and you have to substract the OS?
PS5 storage is going to be even lower lol
These games already exist on PC and even with a fast SSD there they still have load times.
Without changes in those games, they're not going to just disappear. This isn't magic. PS5 is going to be the same way here.
remember none of these games they played are optimize for the SSD. It's just doing it with the regular game
I consider that pretty damned good. If memory serves, that's faster than Control on my laptop w/ and SSD. I assume a lot of games will still be stuck in the 30-40 second range, just based on how those engines handle even on high-end PC. These also appear to be first-time loads, which are often longer than subsequent loads for a lot of games.

These are back compat games getting "free" improvements with no work required from the devs simply from the better hardware.
Here we go complaining about improved load times not being quick enough on games that aren't optimized in anyway shape or fucking form.
1. These aren't Series X games, these are backwards compatible games. Games native for the console will have been optimized around the SSD.
2. I don't believe Microsoft ever claimed "no loading times", that was a Sony line. Xbox has always claimed drastically reduced load times, and have released comparison videos like this that seem to have held up as accurate.
You were naïve if you ever believed that. Load times were always gonna be there especially for games that aren't designed around the new SSD. They were just gonna be significantly less. No different than an NVME on PC.
Sounds like a very familiar, faster experience overall based on these previews. Obviously they've been limited by what they can see and do, though. Will be interesting to see how the PS5 experience compares, because obviously there's going to be a new UI and controller to discuss as well.
Really excited for those faster loading times! I used to literally go and make a cup of tea while waiting for Odyssey to load!

About locked and unlocked Frame rates:
That's odd. I thought the No Man's Sky had an "unlock framerate" option in the menu.
You can't magically remove load times from games designed with them in mind. You'll see the real difference with games designed for the tech.
Yup I'm surprised there is no showing of Xbox Series X | S titles that what I thought it would come.
I think Outer Worlds and a couple of other games are optimized, I'm not sure.
remember none of these games they played are optimize for the SSD. It's just doing it with the regular game
Holy shit it basically fixed FF XV loading.

How can you look at this and think eh I'll still complain lol
