in this thread: people with last gen hardware moan about next gen game not running well.

its like you people forget how bad GTA ran back in ps2 days on hardware simply not capable enough, 25fps max, same situation here, this is only the 3rd true next gen game after Minecraft RTX and Control RTX.

 

[Edgelord79]

What'd you know? This turned out to be a shit post!

Nobody saw it coming....

A shock I tell you... a shock...

 

[MMaRsu]

Im sorry man but youre playing last gen content

 

[MMaRsu]

Should have been next-gen only. I'm not surprised it looks like shit on consoles currently.

Probably the best looking game ever on PC.

Next gen barely has an install base.

 

[Jadsey]

Shitpost confirmed

 

[SSfox]

This is why I won't buy it before the 2021 next gen update.

 

[ArtHands]

Actually the original video was 4 minutes long demonstrating the game on PS4 slim, it was uploaded a few days ago on YouTube!

Few days ago? The one I saw, it says it was uploaded less than a day ago



He said its on a based PS4 (with some parts on the PS5), not a Slim.

 

[MonarchJT]

That guys is a troll. He posted a pre patch ps4 that runs at 720p as ps5 version .

Ps5 is actually running the game better than series x . Higher resolution and higher mean frames

lol wut?

 

[Hawking Radiation]

Buyers please beware. It's seriously blurry on the ps5. I disabled chromatic film grain etc all that. Especially when driving it's like the resolution looks like drops so low. Idk wait for digital foundry they'll be on this for sure.

Its the same on PS4 Pro. Everything is soft and blurry even objects close to you.
The surfaces of objects have this weird grain/shimmer effect to it.

I turned off all graphics settings and pushed my TVs sharpness settings from 0 to 30% (out of 100) and the game looks much more presentable now. I might dial sharpness down a bit to around 20%.

Overall the game still looks like ass and roaming around the streets sometimes the frames drop to below 30fps I believe. I might be wrong but it really does suffer sometimes.

Overall the game is very promising and I'm itching to continue playing. I just hope the devs release a patch to make it look at least on par with some other big open world games. Surely PS4 and PS4 Pro can do better.

 

[CouzinD]

So when's the PS5 next generation patch out..?

 

[MMaRsu]

MMaRsu

Looks like that mythical day 1 patch hasn't done much huh? I did tell you.



It will, but that doesn't help people who aren't upgrading to the PS5 in the near future and are stuck with this game on the PS4/Xbox One.

From the footage posted it looks great for a PS4 game. There is no next gen patch, its running on HDD speeds.

Why are yall expecting a next gen game to run well on last gen hardware .

But like I said from footage posted earlier it looks pretty damn good for base consoles.

Guess im just happy I didnt go for a next gen console, but a new videocard for this game instead.

 

[MMaRsu]

Also GHG a ton of bugs found in that other twitter video arent even present anymore. So I guess it did a lot. Not gonna make the game run magically all of a sudden.

 

[Agnostic2020]

lol wut?

The video he posted under the ps5 in that tweet is the game running on base ps4 before the patch . He took that video from ps4 gameplay issues of someone else and just said it is ps5 version . Meaning a troll

 

[Endless Fluff]

Read Dead Redemption 2 on PS4 Pro looks even softer and when I complained about it back then, GAF told me I was either sitting too close to the TV or wrong. Now it's a problem? I guess I wasn't so wrong after all.

Since performance on PS5 is also not solid 60 (there's quite a few noticeable drops below 60), I'd prefer a 30fps cap with higher res (a resolution mode or whatever) to clean up the soft look but I guess this will have to wait until we get the next gen patch.

 

[waquzy]

So when's the PS5 next generation patch out..?

Next year. Knowing CDPR's punctuality, probably end of 2021.

 

[Dibils2k]

i wonder how Xbox Series X version will be (will play tonight). i bought it on Xbox because i would think the One X version is sharper than PS4 Pro version

 

[Freeman76]

The framerate is utter shite in places on Series X. I know there are people in their Sony underpants (85% of Gaf prolly) saying its running perfect on PS5 but I find that hard to believe. Go to the market area and check it there, it's awful. I dont care too much that it looks blurry as its a last gen game and I expected that, I would expect it to hit 60fps with ease on the new consoles. I'm hoping patches can fix that because the game does look really good otherwise.

 

[skneogaf]

Dude, I know generally a lot about TV, had even professional calibration. This is not the problem with settings - there is something fucked up with HDR signal. Either its Dolby Vision which is not supported by Samsung or something is wrong. Other HDR games works like a charm hitting up to 1500 nits. Had the same problem with RDR2.

This is Crysis on PS3 and X360 levels of oof.

Curious, can we get some PS5 footage of this problematic area?

You sir are a fanatic.

I'm only going on what I've so far seen.

If the xbox series x playing the xbox one x version at unlocked frame rate stats above 40 fps then that version is definitely best as variable rate refresh has that covered.

PS5 is running smoother than XSX and that's a fact, it's because the PS5 has lower resolution (1260p) whereas the XSX is at 1440p. That makes all the difference. That's my initial impression!

 

[jm89]

DF comparison will be a shit show. Can't wait.

 

[T-Cake]

I thought CDPR were supposed to be technical wizards? Seems to be a universally unoptimized game.

The Witcher 2 is to this day still a hog at 4K60.

 

[M1chl]

It is a early access game.
They need more time to finish it... so just wait.

They need more time to Polish it... so just wait.

This game has a nudity filter for streamers. it's uncensored.

With nice jiggle physics.

I think people are dumping down the settings for edgelord points or something, here's a guy on base PS4

The guy is a Sony extremist, like most of the people in this thread. Just click his profile, ignore, and enjoy GAF more.

 

[BuffNTuff]

Played some on ps5. Looks fine. Frame rate is extremely stable at 60 FPS. Clearly running above 1080p - have people in this thread never played games on oneX or ps4pro with heavy post processing before?

that being said, definitely doesn't feel "next gen" at all. I'd call it the pinnacle of last gen or maybe last gen on steroids, but nowhere close to ue5 demo and even a next gen patch with a bunch of rtx isn't going to change that IMO.

 

[TheGejsza]

This is what I'am experiancing on PS5. Overall too bright image, washed out blacks. Thx for sharing.

 

[deriks]

Gonna wait for next gen release

 

[azz0r]

It really needs a next gen update, but it doesn't look nearly as bad as your making out.

 

[Dibils2k]

and this is why i have given up on HDR when it omes to gaming. i am sick of turning it on and off based on how well certain games used it.. its now on OFF permanently cause atleast i know SDR image is what is intended

Go to the market area. Then pop back in and tell us how stable it is. You have probably played the first hour and not got very far in the actual open world where it falls apart in places.

Dont get me wrong, the game is amazing, but def needs some work.

 

[Shane89]

i knew that this was going to be a complete flop. i frigging knew it.... tons of hype (made by the developers) for what turned out to be an unoptimized c**p.

on ps4 / one is a complete garbage (someone should have prevented them for release such game on these console), on pro / one x is mediocre, and on PS5 / XSX it's the same mediocre game running on pro / one x with just a better framerate.

Really pathetic.

 

[The Day It Snowed]

A 2020 game running on 2013 hardware (which was weak at the time) is pretty shit performance wise?

Shocker.

 

[NoGames]

Cyberpunk 2077 is a disappointment , the game clearly wasn't ready but CDPR honchos demanded it to be released ... Ive been watching hours of videos and live streams on cyperpunk and the massive issues , bugs, NPC density, fetch quest, poor graphics cannot be ignored... Death stranding is more graphically better than cyberpunk .. I fell for the marketing hype and pre orderd it but I'll be returning for my refund won't be buying till I see a proper next gen ps5 patch

CDPR was reckless to make CP2077 for old gen hardware but they just wanted $$$ and to con the large install base.. if CDPR cared about their games cyberpunk would have been a next gen only game ...

the game has been development for like 7 years. It's not that it's unoptimized, it's that this game hasn't been built leveraging the massive paradigm shift of modern development tools and techniques that we will start seeing as this gen takes off.

Slapping Ray tracing as a topcoat on what is last gen frame through and through isn't going to change that IMO. Even with a next gen patch this game will be top of class last gen and will not come anywhere near what this new gen can and will achieve.

 

[MaximusPayne]

I thought it was confirmed that the versions would be pspro and one x versions right now. So....duh.

I can say the series x is running the performance mode pretty well besides a few hitches which was expected.

The game looks likes its gonna be awesome.

I cannot agree with OP but the only difference is I'm playing on Series X.

 

[sncvsrtoip]

Can confirm, currently on ps5 looks like some good vr game, quite blurry

I'm also a victim of how much this game was overhyped and regret my purchase. I can't get a refund so I will at least wait for the next gen version to play it, but I'm afraid it will stay in my collection unplayed just like TW3.

 

[The Day It Snowed]

GTA V performed better on old hardware: PS3/360

I remember wishing GTA V was released on PS4 because of how it looked/performed on 360 just two months before the new consoles were due to come out.

But I still loved the fuck out of it, so swings and roundabouts.

Yeah.

Actually
Rockstar > any other developer

If Rockstar and ND can do it, why can't CDPR?

 

[Vae_Victis]

Wow, current gen performance is bad. Like, REALLY bad. Base XOne looks positively unplayable half the times, and both on that and on PS4 everything looks like a blurry smudge (I don't think it's even the low resolution, most textures are PS3 bad and I have the feeling the renderer is cheapening out on image definition even more somehow along the pipeline).

I haven't seen a big game running this bad on console since Shadow of Mordor on PS3/Xbox 360, but at least then the excuse was that the port was basically an afterthought commissioned to an incompetent external studio. These are the platforms CDPR supposedly intended the game for since 2016 (when pre-production started).

 

[The Day It Snowed]

Dunno, I'm not a games developer.

But I know enough to not expect games to run well and look great on underpowered 7 year old hardware unless it's an exceptionally rare circumstance.

Especially when it's targetting high end PCs.

That doesn't excuse to leave the next generation of console with the same graphic. It's 7 fucking years and they haven't the time to port it. Morons.

this is What happens when you use last gen techniques and Stacks cranked to 11 and just brute force last gen code to achieve the "next gen" look and feel - even on PC.

Not sure why people are so surprised by this.

They shouldn't? People doesn't care about the tech reasons behind, it's their fault and they should handle better the situation. They said it's thanks to the console if they have had the big revenue needed for The Witcher 3 (their word) and suddenly fuck them, we code the next game for pc who cares how runs on console? I don't get it.
