Why the PS5 is a disappointment

I dont even...

OP and everyone else... watch this trailer please...




That's being done on a 1.8 TB (a number nobody really gave a fu"k about before all of this FYI) and a Jaguar core...

You are getting a 10 TB, Ryzen, Custom GPU, and lightning fast SSD (devs words not mine)

Can you people stop measuring theoretical spec dicks for two seconds and consider that lol

Both the PS5 and the XseX are going to be AWESOME!

You haven't seen anything yet ;)

I would be careful here. The game's subjective art direction has nothing to do with it's TFLOP performance.

Er not saying it does, merely that the paltry amount in the PS4 gave us this, imagine what all the next gen tech will deliver...

I mean, simple math says 10 is more than 1.8 (not taking everything else into consideration)

Agreed.

I think people are more interested in pixel performance (TFLOPS) because that directly drives how a game will look at the final pixel color level. The faster you can evaluate the rendering equation, the more features you can add to the look - for example - lighting calculations (which would obviously require faster throughput than any custom SSD).

In addition, think about the jump in detail with LoD. PS5 can load the same asset twice as fast as XS1, or an asset considerably larger in the same time. Think about the balancing act that devs are currently doing with assets and LOD to get things loaded into a scene.

This is so much bigger than just "load times".

Of course. But you have to understand where that 9-10 could go. For example, you can quickly use up a lot of bandwidth trying to run UC4, for example at true 4k/60FPS without changing anything else.

I will buy ps5 no matter what they say, and the spec isn't underwhelming at all, I am all in for the high performance SSD and how it will shape new gameplay and creativity in game design (to you guys that thinking faster SSD just means faster loading time, you re an idiot)
I hope the form factor is sexy tho, such as spherical ball

But this doesn't really matter if we don't get the games

Xbox already has Halo at launch. It's only one game, but it has atention

As someone in the dev industry i will try to explain this once and never again.

The advantage sony's SSD gives us is fucking unparalleled to anything you will experience next gen. If you think you have an idea what it means, trust me you dont. the whole idea of open world games, spaces, details in distance. it will all change. the definition of game design and level design is going to change with this and all people fucking care about is Terraflops. 12 TF means jackshit if your scene can only load in so many objects.



You guys are up for some serious game industry changing games and all i am hearing is why you are dissepointed because sony tried to explain to you why this is important.
This is what the devs meant when they said PS5 was the most interesting tech they've seen within the last 20 years. Sony are pretty much doing away with loading, people are stupid if they think this just means you stare at a loading screen for a few seconds less. It has actual in-game consequences.

i see what you're saying, and i agree, but it is not going to stop, ever....just like how it didn't stop when xbox one presentation took a shit and ps4 blew it away, it didn't stop until xonex came out, this isn't stopping, get use to it

Funny how Sony Ponies drank that kool-aid in 2013 when they had the TFLOPs advantage, no? I'm not trying to troll you, but just pointing out the hypocrisy of fandoms.

It doesn’t matter really, be it Sony PS4 or Xbox, it’s a terrible drink to consume. The same logic of mine applies to this generation on both sides.
