Deus Ex died so this game could live. Enjoy.

So it was 1080p and not 1440. Still not sure why it had to go so low along with lowered effects to boot…I'm just not getting where the bottleneck is.

1080p 30 fps for XSS , with graphical cut backs

This is a last gen engine yet it still cant hold 1080 60fps, next gen games are gonna be 1440p 30fps, with maybe a 900p 60fps mode, me thinks.

I hope they UPDATE the resolution on ps5 and series x/.A least a 1440p/60fps mode

I'm sorry. If you had brought a ps5 or a series X instead you could play with higher fidelity.

Good. The second game was shit. This game is great. You guys really need to let it go.
I don't see how anyone can actually play this game on a PS5 or XSX and claim it looks last gen.

PS5 and Series X runs at 4k30 in quality mode... and Tom says there is a chance of DRS on the quality mode, he just don't pick up in his test.

Performance 60/1080p ?

Performance is native 1080 at 60. I watching the video, IMO I not seeing any reason why next gen machines need to down 1920x1080 to archieve 60 fps.

- Both consoles miss the 60 target in 1080p60 Mode… drops to 40fps.
- Series X holds better the framerate.
- Framerate drops only in cutscenes in 4k30 Mode.
- Too heavy cutbacks in 1080p60 mode.
Seems like the best mode to play is 4k30 from their conclusion… 1080p60 visuals are really too drastic downgraded that it is weird because it is rendering 1/4 of the pixels and some effects are decrease plus the drops in framerate.
Edit - Fixed.

Really bad 60fps mode with dips to 40fps… PS5 holds the advantage here.
Mostly solid 30fps mode but have dips in cutscenes.

There is no 4K 60 mode. What are you talking about.
1080p in 60fps mode is somewhat disappointing in that it is not common to see something like this when the quality mode is native 4k and graphic improvements. Normal would have been dynamic up to 1440p at least.
But as you say, the game looks extraordinary in quality mode and perfectly one of the most visually prominent games in the XSX and PS5 catalog. .
PS. Of course, the work on the XSS version that clearly can give more is disappointing.

I'm picking up the game today. Are you playing in quality mode?
That seems like an extreme drop in resolution for 60 fps. I would think a target of 1440p DRS would be able to achieve 60fps.
Pretty sure he said frame rate was "marginally better" on XSX
Nope. Only Performance.
I've played through it twice on PS5 in Performance and playing it now on XSX and the XSX version is slightly smoother.

He specifically says Xbox Series X has a marginally better frame rate, plus a VRR option as well.

Even a dynamic 4k would be better. If they feel insecurity about perfomance, just adjust the DRS to be more agressive.

You mean second Deus Ex by Eidos-Montréal? It was okay. Human Revolution was amazing.
Who knows maybe their third try at Deus Ex would be as great as the OG. I guess we will never know.
Enjoy this CINEMATIC EXPIERIENCE.

As a Series S owner, I'm rather disappointed.

Playing this on pc where it's consistently around 80fps+ and with how fast the game play is I can't see how people could stomach playing this @ 30fps.

But this game looks great so it's ok. Hopefully they make another Deus Ex in the future.
I think we all knew what was going to happen to the Series S, just wait until games start being made natively for next gen, I think the gap will get bigger.
30fps and 4k on PS5 and Series X is weird when you factor in how many games have been able to hit 4K/60 FPS on those consoles. Hopefully it gets patched.

I just typed wrong the mode lol
Fixed already.

You done?
LOL what??
.They say XSX holds better framerate and you can see that cleary in the video.

I don't really wanna play 30 fps lol but 1080 is ehh... Do we think it'll run better on my 2080S and ryzen 5 3600xt? Maybe I should do PC after all, even though I wanted a disc

The 60fps mode is a bit surprising. I've only managed to get it to drop into the 60s once the entire game at 1440p DLSS quality (960p? but obviously a little overhead in DLSS so surely comparable to 1080p) with no RT but otherwise max which is surely higher than the console 60fps mode. 95% of the time it is 90-120fps.
I only say this is strange as based on past games my PC is normally + or - 10% with the consoles but it is miles ahead in this game.

It doesn't make much sense. If PS5 and Series X can run the game at 60 fps it's not CPU limited, so the GPU is the bottleneck. But 1080@60fps requires only half the computational power of 4K@30fps, the game should run fine at 1440p and 60 fps. Very weird.
EDIT...
What? 1080 and 30 fps on Series S? What a joke!

That happens when you switch from framerate modes… give few minutes to eyes adapt and it become good again.
If you started on 4k30 without do the shift then you will barely notice.
It is a side effect from how our eyes adapts to different framerates.

Basically a small difference between the two versions almost identical IMO.
Still i have a feeling they could have done a better job with the 60FPs mode. 4K 30FPs seems like the best option to me.

It' okay, I agree. Too cinematic and too restrictive for my taste but there are some good things about. It looks stunning, runs great on PC and has an entertaining story.
I really, really hope for another Deus Ex. Deus Ex is like the complete opposite of this in terms of game design.
I want to be immersed in my sims, god damn it!

Wow you did 2 play throughs and doing another 1 on a different console? You must really like this game lol

Yeah, even more perplexing is that it suffers bigger frame drops compared to quality mode too. It just doesn't seem to make any logical sense.
Takes 2 playthroughs to get all of the trophies if you don't know where everything is. I played through the game a week before it was released, so I had do to it blind to even what the trophy requirements were.

even with SSDs there are streaming/pop in issues

Curious, what would they have to do to achieve that? Have other games recently did patches to boost graphical fidelity? I'm trying to remember.

How does this game run on PS4 and X1? There is no reason the XSS isn't outperforming those devices. The concern for the budget console is notable though.1080p 30 fps for XSS , with graphical cut backs
Who is this 'we'? Name a console that showed worse and worse performance as a generation proceeds. Even the X1 performs better today than at launch. The XSS and the XSX for that matter aren't using all the features available to them. Despite that there are plenty of examples of the XSS handing games quite well, MS Flight Simulator for one. That title also has to be current generation only. Would you say that title is evidence that the XSS would perform worse as a current gen only title?
