True test. Lichdom battle mage. Is it playable now?

It was patched months ago and apparently runs stable even on base PS4

 

[JigglesBunny]

Getting my Pro back. That's the shit I want.

 

[Sephzilla]

Some of you guys seriously just need to buy a PC at this point.

I know right. We've had 60 FPS Bloodborne there for years... oh wait

Bloodborne and Killzone run great on PC.

 

[EvB]

Wow. Sony is absolutely KILLING it with the PS4. This sounds amazing.

Do we actually know that this DOESN'T also apply to games that already benefit from PRO patches? Not all PRO patches are made the same, so unless they specifically block this boost mode on games with PRO patches, I can see it helping those games as well.

Can't wait to see exactly how this works and what it works with. Need me a PRO asap.

We don't know

But given that the hardware features of the Pro are essentitally

a 14% Faster GPU
an extra GPU.
a 30% faster CPU
and 500mb more RAM for games
Then some new AMD Polaris features and some additional Sony hardware.

and PS4 games that were unpatched had no access to anything.
I'd suspect the 14% extra GPU clock, the 30% CPU and the RAM all become avaiable with Boost mode.

However, for the 2nd GPU and the new Polaris features, the game needs to be "coded to the metal" or patched to make use of them

Oh I wasn't aware it played exclusive games such as bloodborne, until dawn, etc, thanks for the tip my dude.

 

[Ozorov]

There is an NDA be careful folks

Yup, didn't read it as always . We can talk about it or?

 

[KCroxtonJr]

I have a good PC and this still interests me very much.

good ava quote, had to

 

[SxP]

I laughed way too hard and way too long at PS4 Amateur in that The Evil Within video.

 

[Hoo-doo]

Some of you guys seriously just need to buy a PC at this point.

Go shitpost somewhere else. Plenty of threads you can participate in.

And that's coming from a PC gamer.

 

[Wishmaster92]

So much smoother.

Yes the difference is huge here! PS4 pro redeemed!

 

[DjRalford]

Finally got my code from the PS beta program, they said we'd all be automatically included so I knew it was just a matter of time.

Downloading now.

 

[stargateheaven]

I need yakuza 0 tests!!!

it sticks to 60fps normally but it gets screen tearing.

 

[Loudninja]

I bought the game solely based on that article.

If what I played is 'patched', I never want to see the unpatched version. There's a flooded jungle stage later in the game which ran at 10 FPS through out.

This is one of the rare few games I sold without finishing it. I didn't even bother youtubing the ending, it's THAT bad.



Excellent, also holy shit Amateur PS4 frame rate is that bad ? I finished the game back on PS3, didn't notice that bad frame rate on PS3.

Oh i know, Its still really really bad, trust me.

Damn lol.

Is a good game to try then!

 

[kevin1025]

Is anyone else potentially testing out Just Cause 3? Downloading is making me feel bad for those waiting

There is an NDA be careful folks

Also this, haha.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

I'm going to wait for DF to put out some videos. I remember some of the "experts" here swore up and down that No Man's Sky was 60fps.

 

[spectator]

Some of you guys seriously just need to buy a PC at this point.

True- they do run those PS4 exclusives a lot better.

 

[ksimm]

There is an NDA be careful folks

Bugger... Really?

"NEWS I DON'T CARE ABOUT? BETTER GO SHIT POST!"

 

[Primethius]

I have a PC. Wish I could run some of my PS4 games on it. Can't.

Oh well...

 

[giancarlo123x]

A page or two ago someone said no tearing.

 

[Windle Poons]

Awesome, to top it off I got my email tonight for the beta!

 

[Piccoro]

So much smoother.

Oh wow. That's The Evil Within, right? Still gotta play that.

And LOL at the "Amateur"! Is that the name of the OG now?

 

[VariantX]

Digital foundry is salivating right now.

Seriously, this. Do you know how much content they get to go back through and run comparisons on again now that theres a new variable to test? It's a goldmine for them. I wish I could have gotten in, I would love to see how boost mode improves my games.

 

[deoee]

I'm in the beta, someone gift me a PS4 Pro and I will test Bloodborne!

 

[CouchMaster]

Some of you guys seriously just need to buy a PC at this point.

To play Bloodborne?

 

[AyraSutoraifu]

So much smoother.

That's a big difference. Normally i don't really care for some framedrops but if you compare side by side…

 

[NandoGip]

Bloodborne and Killzone run great on PC.

No need to be so defensive jeez.

All I'm saying is that if you appreciate top notch graphics and frame rate, PC would be so much better.

Not trying to start a pc vs. console war (I love console games, Destiny, etc.). I'm just saying that getting a PC if graphics matter pays off.

 

[giancarlo123x]

Gift me a Beta and I will test everything!

 

[Straight Edge]

I'm boosting as we speak.

But I don't want the drawbacks of PC. Such as using Windows (ewww)

Lmfao at PS4 Amateur.

 

[timmyp53]

Seriously, this. Do you know how much content they get to go back through and run comparisons on again now that theres a new variable to test? It's a goldmine for them.

Witcher 3 seems like it should be the first thing they do.

 

[Maintenance]

What do you need to get in the Beta anyway? Do you need to activate any option saying "I want to be part of it" so that they can send you invites?

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Some of you guys seriously just need to buy a PC at this point.

Horizon: Zero Dawn.

 

[killatopak]

Does this affect indie games?

 

[Ozorov]

You register interest for it

 

[Paganmoon]

I want this real hard.

So it's a systemwide option, not per game? (so if you find a game that this bugs out on you have to switch it off for all games?)

So much smoother.

That real? source?

 

[SaganIsGOAT]

When does this release?

thanks for that. I was thinking the exact same thing lol

 

[Always-honest]

Great. What about downsampling?

 

[timmyp53]

You have to opt in for mailing list so you can get emails of that nature as well as actually signing up for the beta.

And like it's already been said, no matter how good the PC it won't play console exclusives

Ps4 firmware 5.0 beta

 

[Maintenance]

Oh, thanks. Found it here but I guess I'm too late.

Eh.

 

[NandoGip]

"I have lots of black friends!"

wtf?

Smooth as butter in boost mode.
