Wow. RT makes a big difference in that scene.
Utterly impressive..
Only if they managed to pull this off in the performance mode.. AW2 would've been the first game I'd try on my PS5 PRO..

Sorry guys, I just realized that this is not the real PS5 PRO shot, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to delete a post

The images are originally from an old twitter post of PC version with the ray tracing turned on and off. Looks like some Sony fanboy has made this fake comparison image with added color correction and image sharpening.

What's funny that it was just contrast and sharpening differences. RT upgrade is there on Pro and it's big (shame that only 30fps, Remedy don't know that 40fps exist).

This is frustrating. The whole point of the Pro was to give players fidelity-like image quality at 60fps. But what Sony have done now is given Pro users the same problem yet again - they will toggle between Fidelity and Performance and see the former looking so much better. The cycle is just repeated.

Yeah but the performance mode is an option now again for a lot of people, because it wont look like absolute shit

Aside from FF7Rebirth, when was that really a significant issue?
Luipadre

Lots of games looks pretty low ress in perf modes. Ronin looked pretty bad, new DA looks low ress, MHW, AW2 and the list goes on and on. Even games like spiderman 2 looked pretty blurry in 60 fps mode

Rise of Ronin. I'd like a documentary series on how that game looks so bad, and yet struggles on new hardware. It's truly a feat.

PSSR alone should do a ton of improvements to that game. The FSR artifacts on characters and foliage was horrible

Do we have proper comparisons of performance mode ?

That's exactly what they have done. They've given Fidelity quality at 60fps. Every game shown so far has shown this clearly. I'm baffled how people are getting confused.

Many games. LotF, AoS2, Dragon Age, IoA etc.
Basically every high demanding game.
So it's performance mode with better image quality most of the time, not quality mode.

Oh yeah and outlaws, that game looked awful too. Pro should improve a lot of things there, image quality, RT quality in perf mode, framerate etc. Im waiting for their big november patch, probably thats the pro patch too

Not surprised. That forest area is murderous. The 4090 goes from an easy 60 to the mid-40s there 1440p/max settings. Highly disappointed that it performs worse on the Pro than the OG console though.
Pro has way better IQ.

Oof, i remember this stuff happening with some ps4 pro enhanced games too.
Can we use the regular ps5 performance mode and run that on the pro? Surely that should be a locked 60 no?

Pro patch isn’t out yet. So this is dynamic resolution being pushed up from the get go?
60fps mode looks much sharper on the Pro

It’s using PSSR though. Alan Wake 2 doesn’t have DRS.

That's probably going to be patched. This is the first batch of games. Similar things happened on PS4 Pro with for instance TLOU remastered. Eventually the PS4 Pro version performed better. Also we are talking about 1-2 fps difference.Not surprised. That forest area is murderous. The 4090 goes from an easy 60 to the mid-40s there 1440p/max settings.

Do we know anything about Brasil Pixel? I thing we should take these videos with a grain of salt.

I hadn’t heard of them until now, but it seems like they’ve done a number of performance tests for a little while, based on their page.

I really hope the Pro has an AI upscaler for shitty combat, bad "puzzles" and generally gameplay-second game design.

Isn't Alan Wake 2 already patched for the Pro?

Their biggest patch yet comes out on nov 21st. They implementing a lot of the feedback, making stealth, combat better. Making the character movement more responsive etc. They had a blog post talking about some stuff yesterday. Probably the game will goes on sale too with the big update

Not the most impressive PRO upgrade. By the way, it appears that the base PS5 got quite a bit of performance uplift from the launch code, i wonder how it fears now against XSX. I remember Oliver from DF responding to someone posting how XSX performs better in this game by something like "this is not the current state of performance of the game." Maybe both are pretty close now.Not surprised. That forest area is murderous. The 4090 goes from an easy 60 to the mid-40s there 1440p/max settings.

Tech investment and budgets.
It's a grab from that video above.
I didn't know the patch wasn't out.
In that case it seems a resolution improvement due to DRS alone and it's better to wait.

Its out

I wouldn't read too much into FPS drops in what is a notoriously heavy scene, the IQ improvement is substantial.

There will be others patches, very likely.

Very noticeable improvement to IQ in performance mode.

I’m not sure about Xbox, but I know PC also got nice performance improvements over time as well. It now runs substantially better in some areas.
