Support NeoGAF

[iamvin22]

So I have ps+ but when I go to download the game it's asking me to purchase another year. I have the sub till next year.

Anyone else getting this?

Just tried it out on Switch 2. Just at the beginning in MacFarlane's Ranch. It certainly looks and runs a ton better, but it doesn't quite feel like 60 fps to me.

Docked or handheld?

 

[Wilhelm_85]

Docked or handheld?

Both, although it did feel a bit smoother in handheld mode, but that may just be due to the smaller screen.

I may be wrong about it, of course, and according to that YouTube channel linked above it is locked at 60 fps, but it just didn't feel nearly as smooth to me as Pokémon Legends A-Z, which I was just playing immediately prior.

Still a massive improvement over the Switch version.

Played docked for about 15 mins. It's definitely 60fps now. Haven't touched handheld yet.

 

[Kacho]

Looks like 12 pm EST

Nope. Unless I need to reboot my Series X…

Edit: reboot didn't work

did you actually apply the switch 2 upgrade from the eshop? because without it you somehow get some of the upgrades but not the 60 fps.

Holy shit, you're right. How bizarre! The game automatically updated when I tried to launch it, so I assumed that was it. All the visual upgrades were there and it even said "Nintendo Switch 2" when saving the game. Never would have thought I needed to buy a $0.00 ticket in the eShop to unlock 60 fps. Thanks a lot! It's running perfectly now.

[Trogdor1123]

59.99 on iOS and it doesn't work on an Apple TV. I'm good

 

[Kacho]

The new version of RDR was free for me on the store. Once I claimed it the game launched.

 

[AJUMP23]

Can I grab my 360 save and import it?

I did not. I was able to download it from the PS5 early this morning.

8GB or so, small file.

[Kacho]

Check the store again. The paid version is now Free to redeem. I'm playing now.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Ask them to get on it for RDR2.

 

[Stitch]

• A smooth 60 frames-per-second experience
• Enhanced image quality
• HDR Support
• Resolutions of up to 4K supported on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S
• Support for DLSS, HDR, mouse controls, and fluid 60 FPS high-resolution performance on Nintendo Switch 2

It's using DLSS on Switch 2. That's why it looks so clean

 

[RCX]

Got it installed on mine. It's free if you have a netflix sub.

I'm hearing performance is rough, hows your experience so far?

 

[MakeMudosGreatAgain]

Only info for save transfers from Rockstar is:

'Anyone who owns the PS4 version of Red Dead Redemption will be able to upgrade to the PS5 version for free, and can pick up right where they left off with their previous save data.'

So doesn't look like any original-original saves will transfer over.

[MakeMudosGreatAgain]

Seems like the audio still isn't mixed properly for surround sound setups.
VO is very quiet (mainly in cutscenes) unless settings are set to just stereo.
No VO audio volume option either.
Premium next gen experience.

 

[Kacho]

The voice volume in cutscenes is way too low. Don't see any options to fix it.

Nvm.

Wifey was trying to get me the discount over the holiday weekend and she couldn't figure it out so she left the sub in my cart.

Damn, thank goodness you didn't blind click it.

 

[iamvin22]

For real tho.


Lucky to have her so I'll be laying pipe work for the rest of the week for her

 

[MacReady13]

Had the 360 back compat version now the updated version is for free on my series x! Awesome shit. Just "purchased" it now!

 

[Burger]

HDR looks whack on S2 Handheld.

 

[hououinkyouma00]

HDR looks whack on S2 Handheld.

You shouldn't ever really use HDR in handheld anyways as that screen isn't really capable of real HDR.

 

[havoc00]

I still see no upgrade option on the series x


never mind got it.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

No multiplayer for Undead Nightmare is terrible and pass worthy.

 

[ClanOfNone]

Man, I forgot how awesome the random npc interactions are in this game.

 

[bitbydeath]

Didn't know this was going to be on PS+, may give it another go.

 

[Kacho]

Happy to have this running at 60fps on Series X. Going from 30fps to 60fps will never get old. Such a transformative change.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

Put about 20 hours in the last week or so just randomly, nothing to do with this re-release. Just going for the platinum trophy in the hope it will bring to life the RDR2 patch.

This first game is so damn good and strikingly beautiful at times still. Obviously 2 improves on everything but this is still a delight.

Makes some modern day open world games feel old in terms of mechanics and minute to minute gameplay.

I could just watch the sunrises and sunsets in this game by my campfire for hours

 

[mrpants]

Very tempted to get it especially with the free switch2 upgrade pack

 

[YCoCg]

HDR looks whack on S2 Handheld.

HDR for this is quite bad anyway, it's SDR in a HDR container sadly, I guess no one at Rockstar still doesn't have an OLED in the studio.

 

[Wilhelm_85]

Played a bit more today on Switch 2 and it's just fantastic. Really holds up. I definitely like how it controls better than RDR2.

Still a damn fine looking game, too.

 

[Imtjnotu]

I have the PS4 version downloaded and it says there is no update

 

[cash_longfellow]

Watched my ex-gf play through a couple of times back in the day…with it being free on ps plus, I'm about to jump in on ps5. Any missable trophies I need to be aware of, for anyone who platinumed the ps4 version?

Without looking at a platinum guide, because I'd rather have a human interaction whenever possible these days lol

 

[ReBurn]

Getting this for free because I own the Xbox 360 version is pretty cool. I played the prologue and it was good. No time to ride around with Bonnie tonight, though.

 

[kevboard]

there was one on 360 where you had to use the same horse for 20 missions without tying any horse to those posts that saves your horse...
but I don't know if the remaster kept the same achievements

 

[IbizaPocholo]

• Red Dead Redemption has released its native versions for PS5, Switch 2, and Xbox Series for free if you already had the Oldgen version.
• PS5 has slightly increased its settings compared to PS4, especially in terms of detail level, shadows, and draw distance.
• Switch 2, although with a lower rendering resolution, closely follows PS5 in several of these settings.
• Without a doubt, the biggest difference compared to the PS4 version is the stable 60fps on both consoles.
• For portability reasons, I consider it an ideal title for Switch 2 given the few differences compared to PS5.

• Red Dead Redemption is launching on Switch 2 with improvements over the first Switch, but also with some curious decisions.
• Notable improvements include 60fps, draw distance, and higher resolution shadows.
• In terms of resolution, Switch 2 outputs 1440p from a common resolution of 720p. Nintendo Switch 1 renders at native 1080p.
• Load times have been reduced by more than 10 times on Switch 2.

 

[DeVeAn]

I just finished a play through of GTA 4 yesterday and just played this a year ago or so. I booted this free upgrade 60 fps and full foliage etc. damn I might play through again.

Okay, I'll give a quick once over the trophy list to avoid spoilers. I imagine it's probably still there.

 

[DeepEnigma]

HDR looks whack on S2 Handheld.

The Switch 2 has a pseudo HDR poop display.

 

[Seomel]

I thought ps4 version was good., but ps5 is so much nicer so far. Csnt wait to replay undead nightmare after all years

So I have ps+ but when I go to download the game it's asking me to purchase another year. I have the sub till next year.

Anyone else getting this?

Game is on ps+ extra tier. You might have lower

 

[kevboard]

I mean, yeah. displays like that aren't really HDR. the whole HDR400-like screens are almost a scam tbh.
you'll need at least 1000 nits and decent black levels for HDR to actually work right.

I figured it out. Wife was trying to get me the holiday sale on premium but it wasn't working so she forgot to remove it from my cart.

 

[nikos]

Never finished this game. Really tempted to pick it up on Switch 2. Does it actually look good on a large 4K display in person?

I'm probably better off picking it up on PC but I haven't finished RDR2 either, and I might as well do that first on PC.

 

[Gonzito]

We need this exact same treatment for GTA4
