Playstation Portal Cloud Streaming for PS+

They mention that they'll fix the audio (min. Setting) so that means that they're listening but, wouldn't it be funny if they also fixed the stutter due to the Hz mismatch ?
It's not like they'd actually acknowledge it so that would be a plus, and hey, it would only have taken them 1 YEAR !

As for the cloud streaming, we all.knew it was coming, shame that you need to be on the higher tier for it...

PS3 streamable titles is what I dream of.
Would be good if they allowed streaming off any PS3 games in your digital library.

This is probably why they have started to add a few more PS3 faves like Resistance FoM and Resistance 2.

Nice!

I actually had a great experience the few times I’ve tried PS5 game streaming on the actual PS5. By far the best experience I’ve had with streaming alongside GeForce Now though from my memory the PS+ streaming looked better but it’s been awhile since I used GFN.

Unfortunately my experience with the portal hasn’t been stellar for anything besides some turn based games.

PS cloud streaming is light years ahead of what it was 5 years ago. Not only is it in 4k it's also much easier to play with not that much input lag. That used to be my biggest issue before. It's better now.
I just hope it's good on the Portal. That's only a 1080p screen so it should be fine.

That technically makes it a console (a cloud handheld console) since you wouldn't need a PS5 anymore, doesn't it?
Not that it really matters, of course...
I think you still need a PS5 to set it up? Correct me if I am wrong though..

Well...
This update will also include a beta version of a new feature that many fans have been asking for – support for cloud streaming on PS Portal. When the update is live, PlayStation Plus Premium members will be able to participate in a beta for cloud streaming on PS Portal, allowing select PS5 games in the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog* to be streamed directly from our servers, even without a PS5 console.
 
I saw that video too. But think this was an obvious part of the plan from the start.
Yea it was an obvious part of the plan but he was saying it would be announced soon. Well I think he said it was going to be announced soon if not then yea not to impressive.

No mention of streaming to remote play app?

Wondering if they want to force people to buy some type of their hardware at the very least. This will also limit the amount of users who are hitting the servers during the testing instead of having anyone with the app able to use it.

Is the stutter issue possible to be fixed? I read somewhere its basically a hardware limitation that the screen is 59.9hz or something.

I mean, the Portal has been out for 1 year now and they would have fixed it if they could.
Something tells me that it's unfixable and it's a hardware thing (ie, it's the shitty LCD screen), THEN AGAIN, on Chiaki AND Psplay for example there's an option for this specific problem which - you guessed it - fixes the stutter.
Also : the Hz mismatch stutter is non existent on devices that have a > 60Hz refresh rate screen.

Which brings me to :
If some 3rd party devs can properly code things from their friggin' basement as to prevent this problem why and HOW hasn't Sony been able to do the same ? It's been a friggin' year ffs and many users (me included) have already sold their portal because of this.

Anyway, they listened regarding the minimum volume output level so MAYBE the next Portal FW update will also fix the stutter - one would hope at the very least that is.
 
Threads on Gaf with just a link in the body of the post, are my favorite type of Gaf posts. It’s like those Facebook reels pop ups with chicks with the fat ass..that do a lame dance for 15 seconds for clout. Good job OP 👏 😂

Will be interesting to see how they market this. In any case, amazing news. Makes it a hell of a lot more useful.

I used mine out of state to play Dragon Quest 3 HD in my hotel room. It worked surprisingly well.

I can't imagine gaming without PS Portal or a hybrid like Switch.

Are you that lazy to click on a link? What do you need to know that’s not in the link in the post? Also i was in the shitter and had to go pick up another monitor from facebook marketplace.

I never seen this problem

Man, I still remember the subreddit for the portal, everytime someone mentioned the (very real and existent) stutter all the usual suspects would go :
- It's your router
- It's your McDonald's internet
- sucks for you, I don't have any problems whatsoever
😁😁

Not noticing it would be equal to not perceiving framerate drops.in games, OLED judder in films (and 30fps games), UE shader compilation stutters etc etc...

Not a dig towards you brother but for me and many others the problem was so big that we had to sell our console, but the worst thing ? is/was being called "crazy" and/or hyperbolic by those that couldn't see it.

Consider yourself lucky 😉

I dont see this stutter you guys are talking about either. Is there a youtube of it?

Are you that lazy to only post a link? The point of a forum is to make a damn point if you are making a thread. If you post a thread, give us some context and opinion instead of just making a generic ass thread with a link…or don’t, whatever. Should be used to it by now here 🤦‍♂️

Sure buddy, take your cry to all the other threads that post news without input.

Been there…I live in the present though, and your weak ass (get my post numbers up) thread, is worthy of crying here. Thanks for caring though. I’m just wondering if there is a limit on the “ignore” list at this point. I used to love actually discussing opinions on Gaf. Is it really that difficult to make a thread and actually post your opinion about what you are posting about? 🤦‍♂️

You have as much post as me per year and you think im getting my post numbers up? Lol. Damn Topher Topher , don’t let him see how many posts you got.

Like i said, i posted and had to hit the road to get my monitor from facebook marketplace which took over an hour each way. I come home and see you whining. You’re not even here discussing about the thread. Maybe take your own advice.
