I don't think you understood what he meant.

He is saying that Oodle Texture preparation was not used in the demo thus the efficiency multiplier effect was reduced: I doubt it was loading fully uncompressed data from the SSD (I am quite positive Kraken was used to compress the data set), but without Oodle Texture as a pre-processing step or something similar the textures size was a lot bigger than it could have been (hence the SSD I/O was not used to its full potential).

He joined in nov. 2019 and has been making PC port predictions since. He has said that his track record with insider info is perfect. I have no idea what he predicted altogether but I remember him being correct for Horizon as he was one of the first to announce it.
Well I bookmarked some of VFX Veterans posts so I could come back to it and I found a lot of BS to be honest.

Well we already know what here is BS such as there being only one version of the PS5 and that Legendz game and the games that were not teased at the PS5 event.

Okay so according to the perfect insider we have two PS5 models one being the base PS5 at 9TF and the PS5 Pro which will rival the 12TF XSX. But also the PS5 Pro is coming out at launch ... but he has no dates for when the PS5 Pro will launch.

Okay so now the perfect insider tells us that the PS5 pro which is launching at the same time as the base PS5 which is launching in 2020 might be launching two years after the base PS5 which is a massive contradiction. He also tells us that this mysterious PS5 Pro and the XSX might cost as high as $800 which is obviously bullshit. Also it doesn't make sense for this hypothetical PS5 Pro to be less powerful than the XSX if there is a two year gap between the two.

Now you may be wondering what did VFX say after the PS5 spec reveal.

If your wondering what Mr Perfect is saying here is that the 10.28TF PS5 is probably the PS5 Pro version he was talking about before :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Anyways you can see for yourself above what he has said but I don't know about you guys but I'm coming to the conclusion he is just another fraud insider like Tommy and O'dium and Osiris and whoever else has come along with insider information.

Sorry for the long post but most of you guys probably scrolled past anyways :messenger_tears_of_joy:
 
Not an unreasonable question. After all, 1080p can be transposed to 1800p by simply pressing the keys in the wrong order when typing. This is the first time I've seen a console dev offer that resolution.
They can use 1800p and upscale to 4k. What's happening is they cant quite hit 60fps at 4k so they lower the resolution abit and you get the 60fps. You dont need that big a res drop with that kind of hardware to hit 60fps

Of course he is a fraud.. he was ban from era for spreading bulshit and he is a well know pc fanatic.. that vetted tag only serves to confuse newcomers that don't know his track record.. for me he is a troll nothing more than that..
 

Those famous fanboys who push 60fps like the only worth it way to play a game in the end just make a more damage than good, let the the dev to
what they want if the game is bad or good doesn't matter the framerate. Or like dictator who just say if a game doesn't has real time GI or
DLSS then is disappointed I mean really.
And that is exactly why some people like myself have been questioning the lockhart idea.
So 30fps on the higher end system, what does that mean for the lower end one?
If the CPU and SSD are similar should be the same, the problem comes when the game is already under 4k in XSX even using some reconstruction technique, thing
which will happen.
Its funny people critising ps5 next gen only games being 4k30....or large open world like Valhalla......

did not take long.

Cross gen games like desitny 4k60..

Games will be the same, little difference, who would of guessed,....I am shocked.
The quantity of games running to 60fps should increment as now we have a competent CPU even for PC environments and SSD
avoid many headaches for the dev in the streaming of assets.

But the 30fps will still exists in console for simple reason than a game running to 30fps will looks notable better than other to 60fps, the day this will stop is when
we get until the point the both looks almost equals.
Why does it matter that it doesn't run at 60fps? That's a dev decision... If the XSX had a 24TF GPU they still might have make it run at 30fps... So do we want Microsoft to force developers to push for 60fps then?
Maybe you not but some people who are fan of Play,Xbox and specially PC think a is a good idea while also those games should looks "next gen" they think it is as simple as desired.

Note: looks like you change of opinion if the game is running in PS5 to 30fps
i guess we just have to wait little longer when game prices drops.
If I honest I don't think I am the only who think that a 70$ for many AAA and some AA is a fair price.
 
yeah, its time to start showing stuff. GG had 3.5 years to show us what the SSD can do and as far as i can tell from sony's own PR, the ssd is only being used for loading.

Sony have shown us, UE5 only possible at that level because of the god tier ssd and io.

The super fast streaming will have been evident in a lot of games helping with things like very high ram utilisation.

I'm sure as well with Horizon they wanted to fly last time but couldn't due to io limitations. This time id be shocked if we didn't see Aloy flying through unbelievable looking environments at ultra quality and high speeds with little to no lod or pop in.

What weve seen so far like UE5 is also not using the oodle texture for a lot more speed effectively, as it was made before that so I'd presume the games weren't either.

Can you imagine of we see another ratchet demo and they show before and after now using oodle texture and the portals are improved by a third or so.

I SHALL REFUSE THIS! WHITE THEME?!?! Some of us read this on BIG OLED TVs! DO you not know how bright this shit is, even on LED TVs?! I have to use "dimscreen" app, else this hurtz! .... imma calling the cops!!

On a serious note though: it really is painful to read, look at it
 


Taking no prisoners

I love this guy.
So the difference is that Tom has to say specifically that he is speculating... Do all of us do the same on here?
Many us have more actual experience working in dev (be on games or not) that him so yes is different, I can say good things about both consoles and PC
while see stupid the idea of someone use TF as a magic measure for something so complicated.

As advice if you can and like videogames play in all platforms and don't be an idiot a defend only one as you are just are number for them.
Did anyone figure out what this tweet was about?



5nm and the 900 games bit... why 900 what does that relate to?

Seemed an odd thing to come out with 'randomly'....

Matt is right obviously have more CU or less CU doesn't mean you holdback something, the thing of have more CUs is you GPU is bigger and expensive
but can reach a higher raw performance with lower clock and is potentially harder to reach a good SOLs but that doesn't mean holdback.

I remember saw this guy in ERA being a fanboy ....just wow

I was thinking before what Sony might /could/should show to mitigate the xbox event coming up soonish..

I think they should show the following...

Instant load and boot up times demo. - we have seen examples of crazy speed in ratchet and clank but they should really show us a game loading in a second and maybe switching games in a second too.

Another photorealstic game. - we have seen some games that look amazing and some look close but I think a further example would hit home. Obviously UE5 we have seen and looks better than anything but again just to hit home and steal thunder.

Show off a game running at high frame rate. - this is where MS is probably going to try and show where the xbox is different. Even though we have seen some games at 60 a further example from Sony would reduce that impact.

Then the xbox is harder pressed to show what it does different, to justify that most powerful tag if weve basically already seen everything that it shows us.

I imagine Sony are holding back some aces up their sleeves but what does anyone else think? What will they do? What narrative will MS push?
 
:v

The guy who replied to Matt is most certainly one of those diehards who feel the need to downplay other gaming hardware due to their affection and attachment to their plastic box of choice. The guy possibly doesn't even realise he embarrassed himself big time in front of a person who was the lead software engineer on the PS5 and knows way more with regards to the ins and outs of the PS5 software and hardware than he ever will. Some fanboys never learn. But I just love it when Matt tries to reason with them and they end up digging themselves deeper into the hole they're in anyway. Getting humiliated by an ex lead software engineer of a platform is pure gold and something you don't see everyday. If I had a hat, I'd take it off for Matt.
 
The mods did say that if an insider just spreads false information to disrupt the forums they will be permanently banned.

If you feel like he's going a little crazy with his leaks I would recommend pointing it out to a mod. I know he's already vetted but they can always verify the information to make sure he's being legitimate here.

They would get no such verification. No one from ND would tell them that rumor was true. And I'm certainly not giving them any contacts to specifically who I heard it from. You'll just have to wait and see like all the other accurate rumors I've told that went unnoticed until an official announcement was made.

What I'm saying is his 'Industry Professional (Vetted)' tag is not due to being an industry professional in gaming.

That doesn't matter. VFX = Gaming. How do you think I know all the people that I do in the gaming industry. One is making games, the other making VFX. They both use the same hardware (in VFX case PCs) and solve the same problems (moreso on the VFX side). For example, I personally know Kim Libreria, the CTO of Epic Games. We worked together on the Matrix films.

No offense, but you look like a walking living meme.. no one that knows your track record takes you serious..

But you do your thing..
 
Well, evidently they do because everytime I mention something that appears to be "shocking" to people, they raise the BS flag and start questioning my credentials.
Well, people are certainly tired of individuals spreading bullshit on the forum, and since there has been some reported history of bullshit with your own assertions, it's inevitable that your track record comes up, paired with the fact that you usually treat console gaming in derogatory terms. But I can assure you, it has nothing to do with who you know, it has more to do with the fact that if you actually know anything.

If I know nothing, then ignore me. It's that simple. I don't understand why I'm so talked about on these forums if I don't know anything. I'm also still here (and not permanently banned) since my claims of PS5 performance, release of 2 SKUs, and other exclusive releases like HZD for PC. I guess I don't have such a history of spreading BS afterall.

Other accurate rumours nice joke m8

Yeah, well, you should definitely check out EliteSmurf EliteSmurf 's post in this page and tell me how accurate you are with the amount of things you said that are not true and with all the backtracking on the two PS5 SKU's (and still, the two are exactly equal in specs minus the disc, so no "top tier" and "base model").

Personally, it's my first time talking with you, and believe me when I say that I have absolutely no quarrel with you, but I simply don't like to be fed lies as truths. I will call you and anyone else out on that, it's nothing personal, I don't need to ignore anybody.

LOL! So you took 2 things from that entire list of sentences that are completely accurate and use those to discredit what I heard? LOL!

So let me get this straight, my sources have to be 100% correct even if they do work in the industry and get their info themselves from other sources?

Yea, I'm a fraud then.. don't believe ANYTHING I say again. Great, put me on ignore...and while you are at it, can you show me an insider that gave as much information and was 100% accurate?
 
Has anyone heard if Sony has increased the PS5 GPU clock 🤔

I'm gonna got out on a limb and say at this stage Sony are not gonna (in fact cannot) increase GPU clock.

2.23 is going to be the GPU clock.

There are 3 reasons why it won't have changed

1. Any faster and the logic of the GPU becomes unstable. AMD has specced their new 2020 GPUs to this max clock too.

2. Upping the clock means upping the TDP which means testing and designing for higher temps. The PS5 is designed and built to the TDP so there shouldn't be headroom for higher clocks (unless they over engineered the cooling).

3. With just a few months to go to release, making a change to the clock would require changing the algorithms designed to adjust the clocks and knock on powershift requirements. If this is done carelessly there could be a need to adjust them post-launch reducing performance again.

So for those reasons - in particular 1 - Sony aren't gonna go higher GPU clock.

They might well have tweaked the algorithms to allow higher power though - that would allow the gpu/cpu to run at full clocks throughout more of the "load" range.

They might be able to do this if they find their cooling solution is working better than expected in retail units.
 
You guys still believe VFX Veteran is an "insider"??

Dude keeps trying to convince others he knows people, is constantly acting like a PC fanboy, is very active on this forum, was banned from another, likes to be demeaning of others and tries really hard at being a voice of authority.

When he gets something wrong he still says he was right. Rumor doesn't pan out? He was right. His observation of a tech is wrong? He was still right, in a sense.

I follow his advice though. Ignore.
 
This is why he is trying to downplay HZD2 in this post here....

Also HZD2 looks current gen too. Don't be fooled by the underwater rendering. It's pretty but it's not doing anything revolutionary like ray-tracing.

The downplaying of the console game has already begun, so I guess when HZD2 comes to PC, that's when it will look amazing and of course better than HZD3.....You see, a console game just cant look good and have great tech.... a game is only technically excellent when it's touched by that PC brush...
 
Without speaking for or against VFXVeteran VFXVeteran credibility here, but many people seem to underestimate the unpredictability of real inside information. I was lucky to have friends at Apple a few years ago who provided me with good and credible information. In the end it was frightening how much of these information did not turn out to be "true". This was not because my contacts were fake, but because it is normal in this industry for plans to be changed, postponed, paused, or even canceled altogether. And the sooner this information is passed on, the higher the chance that it will ultimately not be as true as specified by the insider.

I would therefore also like to reiterate that the information from January 20th, which VFXVeteran VFXVeteran had confirmed, were partially correct. It is difficult for outsiders to understand which of this information was actually planned in January. At that time, covid19 was also not up to date, which made changes to plans even more likely afterwards. When evaluating alleged leaks, it should never be ensured that ALL (!) Information are correct, but rather that part of them are correct or at least comes close to reality.

thelastword thelastword - you have known me for years. I will never be as hyped as you guys when it concerns games (no matter the platform). You Sony fans happen to be very hyperbolic with your statements and I try to talk tech-sense into your brains so that you don't come off as having only rose-colored glasses where the PS is concerned. I've done the same with some xbox fans about Hellblade 2.

You specifically mention HZD2 has being a major leap from last gen and using that in-game screenshot to prove your case that Epic is right about games approaching VFX graphics. That was the reason for my rebuttal. If you look at things from a technical perspective instead of from an artistic perspective you wouldn't be so "loud" about PS exclusives. People are also tired of hearing "best graphics ever" every single time a PS exclusive comes out. It's completely a fanboy claim every time. You guys downplay 3rd party games as much as you say I downplay PS games, yet, you criticize me for doing it and don't take responsibility for your own actions. Very hypocritical.

PCs have the latest technology and can do things that the consoles can't. It's not me being a PC elitist. It's more of me being a tech fanboy. And that should be OK. That's how we move forward.

Let's not forget that some people don't have healthy vision, that's if we are gonna give anyone the benefit of the doubt. That's the maximum of what I would get of such outrageous claims.
 
Sony is opening their war chest again after that $229 million of cold cash for only one studio (Insomniac) instead of "talking" about it:
