They're just analysing the patch. What do you think their job is? Tech support for Sony? PR?

PS5 wins by 0.12FPS

What time is it?
Pages and pages of warriors fighting about a cross-platform, next-generation backwards compatible patch from Ubisoft. I can't wait for the rap video analyzing the differences in the footage that DF presented. Teenage angst and a global pandemic are a winning combination.

Massively?
Missing fog on a BC game?
I think you need to console war less.
Only xbox fans truly care about BC face offs, got to pick up those W's somewhere.

They issue is... the "next-gen" BC patch makes the game looks worst than the BC game you were playing before the patch.Pages and pages of warriors fighting about a cross-platform, next-generation backwards compatible patch from Ubisoft.

In any case it is indeed another big win for Series X.

PS5 dips down to 1080p despite not running all effects? Oof.

This isn't true, my guy. It works both ways. Both sides go crazy for "W's"

The title is actually "what's up with PS5 visuals?" but I changed it since the Hitman 3 analysis title wasn't popular.
Summary incoming:
- Game is running in BC mode, or as Tom calls it "BC+ mode"
- Notable downgrades to PS5 version compared to PS4 Pro, missing fog and other effects
- Series S targets 60fps/1080p (dynamic)
- Series X targets 60fps/4k, as high as native 4k, drops as low as 1800p
- PS5 reconstructs to 4k from a max resolution of 1890p, lowest res they counted was 1080p
- Series X takes lead with better BC enhancements
- Newer consoles have better texture pop-in
- Tom hopes the missing effects on PS5 is a bug that will be addressed, Alex surprised this patch even made it out the door in current state
- Black levels are crushed on PS5 version (around 8:20 mark)
- Reflections not working properly on PS5, flat out missing in some areas, Alex says it is definitely a bug that needs to be addressed
- PS5 holds 60 fps very well, Tom did notice one instance of screen tearing around the 12:15 mark that wasn't duplicated on Series X
- Series X holds 60 well but has more slight dips than PS5 probably due to higher settings
- PS5 version clearly not tapping into the increased I/O bandwidth
Sounds like a crappy patch. Hope it gets fixed

Good BC implementation by Xbox, PS5 patch will be fixed soon

And for Sony...ooofff, can’t handle The Division 2 at 4K and has to tur...
...no sorry I can’t. This is squarely on UbiSoft and their patented “Head Up Our Ass” development philosophy. The PS5 is capable of getting closer to the XSX performance than this.

This is next gen patch test, not straight up bc comparison

Calling a Ubisoft game a turd is redundant.

It is a PS4 Pro game running on PS5 via BC.
You don't have a native PS5 version.

The difference is this is a patch for a last gen game in backwards compatibility.. which is what I and the poster I quoted were talking about.
Dirt5 was the first next generation comparison right? After the patch wasn’t the ps5 version still more stable fps?

Except lower native resolution, no Volume metric fog, and lower Quality reflections. Go PS5.

This is not a ”patch”, more akin to ”ripping off a band aid so hard that several layers of skin comes off with it”.
But it is BC in some regard, so i wouldnt call it a next gen version really.

And 'Massive' developed the game. Looked like you were going for a pun.

Nope, it's a BC comparison.
It's a PS4 game, patched to use the PS5s' BC boost mode not a PS5 version of the game.
A next gen version does not exist yet.

The patches are no different than the Pro/X patches last gen. It's a second round of them for the higher spec in the BC environment.
I wish they would drop the "next gen patch" talk, unless they literally recompiled the game to take advantage of the specs outside the BC environment, natively. It's misleading.

Taking the high road huh?
Where was this response when looking at Control on XSX with it's stuttering issues? Should Sony fans not shot their shot? Regardless of the answer to that question, did it stop them from shooting it?
I wish people could just get a consensus on this across both fanbases because these type of threads are always fraught with biases and goal post shifting.

so basically either the team didn't playtest the PS5 version, or they did playtest and just shoved the update out unfinished and bugged on purpose.
I'm nor sure which would be worse
I have to think they just shipped out the patch knowing it was shit.
