No patch yet, and no idea what's expected of it. I hope they've been doing some work on quality with an emphasis on load times and crashes because the game shipped in pretty rough shape. I'd be happy to see enhanced visuals but they wouldn't be first on my list of things that need work.

Frame rate problems ? TLoU, Skyrim and Deus Ex. Last one was a mess on PC, too.
Visual gltiches I heard of WoFF and Hitman.
Oh, that's really nothing then. What's wrong with Uncharted?
actually im not sure if uncharted is affected, skyrim is another
Both BF1 and COD show improvements in IQ and framerate from reports.

Honestly, I think supersampling has justified the pro to me. The image quality bump on ratchet and dishonored 2 is pretty revelatory to me. If supersampaling is the standard, and then there are 1080p specific modes like Infamous and Tomb Raider, I consider this $200 well spent (hardrive space, ne controller and noise level seal the deal).

I can hear slight coil whine from the console. It varies from game to game but not as loud as ive heard in the past. Is coil whine a problem?
Also, does anyone know how I switch the game from 4K to 1080p in the last of us?

Same. I bought a Pro, sold on 1080p benefits, planning to wait until 2017 for a 4K TV. But hearing all the praise for 4K and HDR on UC4, Ratchet & Clank, Infamous ... it makes me want a 4K TV now. I can't help but drool at fantasies of how Skyrim, Gravity Rush, Horizon, FFXV, etc. will look in good 4K/HDR.
The main thing that makes me hesitate is that people with 4K sets seem to be asking a lot of questions about setting them up. I need things to be relatively simple and clear-cut. I'm not all that bright.
If UC4 has issues then I want more games to have issues because on a 4k tv with HDR it is on another level.

Dude, I am watching right now and that was like in the first two minutes. Fucking hell man.
The stuff I read about is 53fps instead of 60fps. To me not a huge deal if you have 1440 or 1800p or 4K. Hopefully it gets improved.
This won't help but.........i went to within a couple of inches of my Samsung KS7000 this morning playing ratchet looking for some sort of muddyness, but nothing, still absolutly pin sharp.
I'm sure it will, it's being blown way out of proportion but still need highlighting so it doesn;t become the norm.
It's not my week
I disconnected my old PS4 and took out the 2TB drive, installed the old one and boxed it off. My Pro should have been delivered today but it didn't arrive, no sign it will be delivered tomorrow.
I decided to take out my PS4 and use it over the weekend but now it won't turn on. It boots up for a second and turns off again. Can anyone help with this problem so it doesn't ruin my weekend.

Anyone using a Pro with a 1080p tn panel? Is the visual upgrade still worthwhile?
Oh I thought it was out since it was on all the list of day one games

Hold power button until it beeps two times, then rebuild database. See if you can get into the safe mode.
There were some impression in the ESO thread, frame rate seems to be greatly improved.

Go into safe mode again and change the resolution to 1080p. That should do it.

It was discussed quite a bit last weekend when someone posted 1080p down sampled images. They looked amazing and were legit.
I just got it tonight and am enjoying it so far. It looks very nice in 4K and runs solid.

I don't think UC4 has any issues. I played a bunch of SP levels and a ton of MP. SP was fine (looked amazing). MP was clearly 1080p and had a fairly strong locked 60 FPS (as opposed to base model, I didn't notice any drops in my 3-4 matches).
About the only issue with UC4 is actually on the MP side of things. It has a sharpening filter that I assume was to combat the 900p that comes off a bit strong at times (loading screen for sure, certain map locations). Though it's not a big issue most of the time as the style of MP doesn't really make it apparent a lot of the time.

This was only a fix to get the screen to display. If I turned off hdcp and turned on 4K it would go back to a blank screen

Might be a general question but it's happening on my pro so......
Streaming to twitch, the quality/bitrate is crap! Got more then enough bandwidth to do 720p/60fps but seems like i'm running about 800-1000kbps short on my bitrate. Changed the router and tried google and open dns....still the same, though going through obs on the pc to twitch is fine.
Going round in circles and it's doing my nut in!
(unless twitch has got a strop on then ignore me
)

Speaking of the cable that came with Pro does it have a Playstation logo on the connector parts? In my organizing/setting everything up including VR and a HDMI switch I got all the HDMI cables confused and couldn't remember which one came with the unit.
Can't even get that far. I hold the power button, it beeps, blue light comes on for a second the console clicks and turns off. I don't remove my finger from the button the entire time.

I noticed it - not much but mostly in 4k native titles

Gonna be honest. I didn't notice much of a visual difference between TLOU's locked 30 vs 60 mode, and the 30fps just feels like shit so staying 60 seems like a no brainer.

What Samsung have you got and what settings are you using. I have a JS9000 and its THE worst HDR title due to the darkness in the game

I feel like Fifa 17 fell by the wayside. Can't find any solid news about the Pro patch. Has anyone else managed to find out anything about it?
didn't DF mention in one of their videos its 4k / 60fps?
Lol.
It's criminal that this isn't getting a patch
Nothing wrong with voicing your thoughts! No thread should be an echochamber of yes men.
I'll say that the current patch thing is just because it's launch. From now on all games will have some mode that does something. What it does is indeed up to them, provided its at 1080. I do wish that more devs would just test it with their existing game and push a tiny patch that just uses the extra power without them even changing the game, but that's not going to happen.
At the end of the day it doesn't have to take off, its an option. If people want a Slim they can play all the game I can play on a Pro. I can't imagine support is going to wane. The very worst that happens in a complete Vita like situation is that all Pro games just run at 1080 with a stable framerate. I just can't see devs not using the power to do something with it.
I just wish I was at home playing rather than at work, on the web talking about it!
I wish Driveclub would get a patch. I'd love a Uncharted collection patch. And Journey. and. and. and.
There's a whole thread of people talking about exactly that

Did they? I hope you're right. Maybe I missed it.
I'd love to see a wiki page or Gaf thread with a breakdown of the improvements in each Pro game.

I connected my PS4 to the Pro with just the Ethernet cable and transferred over 389gb in just 64 minutes. Why transfer any other way?

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Has anyone else tried Bloodborne? Either I'm just not remembering the frame-rate correctly or it seems to be dropping a few more frames. Anyone else want to try and tell me I'm just being dumb and remembering poorly?
