NXGamer: Playstation 5 - Backwards Compatibility Enhanced | Backlog Boosters
- Thread starter chandoog
- Start date
No, shouldn't be required. The patches are about optimizing the PS5 power, not completely reworking the game to take advantage of the SSD speed.
That was me - I think someone mentioned that if you force your console output to 1080p it unlocks the framerate
Also sorry for shameless self promotion - tested another 8 games here
On the Pro, putting your system settings to 1080p gave you an ersatz performance mode to better help it stay at 30fps but there is no frame rate unlock to my knowledge.
Oh nice a new video.
It's only available at 360p to me. I assume it's still uploading?

Some notable examples from the video:
AC Unity:
Original disc version without patch is mostly 60 FPS with some drops. 99% of game play locks at 60 FPS with heavier drops during cut-scenes
Until Dawn:
Game ran with an unlocked frame rate, now mostly 60 FPS, averages 58 FPS or above but can have some drops to mid 50's.
Days Gone:
Received a patch for 60 FPS, seems to stick to it extremely well. No other enhancements, resolution and visual effects are the same.
The Last Guardian:
Now runs at a pretty solid 60 FPS.
Ghost of Tsushima:
Received a patch to run at pretty much locked 60 FPS at 1800p CB.
Sekiro:
Fully locked 60 FPS.
Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order
Runs at fully locked 60 FPS, but dynamic resolution drops can sometimes drop resolution to below 1080p (but frame rate never buckles)

Sounds like NXG said it doesn't matter what mode you ran TLG, it was still basically a locked 60 for him.
Yeah, it's processing, will be 4k soon.
Am just redownloading TLG to try and see if I can replicate this!
Until Dawn (a GPU limited game) shows that PS5 performance scales linearly with the clocks almost perfectly. From 0.8ghz to 2.23ghz is 2.78x better and we can see 2.6x - 2.75% better GPU performance in this game.
I haven't played the LG to be fair, but maybe the game got patched, which would be nice to see :)
Well clearly he has the frame graph so something is going on. I tweeted and asked nx about it hopefully we hear back soon. This is a huge surprise many people were saying it was capped
TLG doesn't have modes, the only way to get better performance was to limit your PS4 Pro to 1080p in the system settings and even if you point the camera at the floor, you're never getting more than 30fps however you play the game.
Will await transcoding to be done to enjoy in 1080 or 4k, however it was uploaded baby. Thank you for this
At the beginning of the segment, he said it was running at 1800p.
I was joking but looks like he really is the framerate Messiah
That's what I thought too.
Absolutely. Especially with how much the framerate struggled for TLG.
I just listened again and he even mentioned the 1080p trick on the pro so there is def something here, and irregardless of mode
NXGamer Bloody great and meaty video. I have two comments pertaining to visual quality of captures:
In the video, he says that it's the 1800p (fidelity/resolution) mode.
- Some PS5 BC titles look notably darker than their PS4 counterpart in side-by-side comparisons. Reminds me of Xbox 360 vs PS3 versions of the same titles feat. two different gamma settings
- SWJFO capture had these, almost interlacing, artifacting. I assume there was some form of resolution mismatch.
In the video, he says that it's the 1800p (fidelity/resolution) mode.
He got the PS5 Pro that unlocks framerates instead of the regular one /s
He's saying this isn't the case In the video
Yeah I listened again now trying to understand how this happened
It is capped in 1080 mode I've just tested it on a ps4 pro. Its a locked 30 fps in this mode. Something is odd here
Has the game been patched? Maybe he's running the vanilla version and somehow it's setup differently? lol idk
Does that mean TLG high-resolution mode despite struggling to hit 30fps consistently, was actually running unlocked?!
EDIT: apparently it's higher than 1800p and more like 1900p!
