[Digital Foundry] Star Wars Jedi Survivor PS5 Pro: Severe Image Quality Problems... But RT in Performance Mode Is Nice



We've got issues with this one. While Star Wars Jedi Survivor serves up some upgrades over the standard PS5 - like the return of RT reflections to the performance mode - there are severe image quality concerns when elements like foliage interact with ray tracing. The end result is a strobing image quality downgrade that makes this Pro patch difficult to recommend.

This game has been a technical nightmare on every platform since it released. I did not expect PS5 Pro to fix this reality.

Even performance mode on PS5 was just rotten with texture pop-in, and weird horrible looking technical issues. Just completely immersion breaking stuff constantly.

They say that the new performance mode has worse image quality overall than the old one using FSR. The general base resolution is 900p upscaled to 1800p but the dynamic resolution can drop to 648p and go up to 1224p I believe based on that pixel count table Oliver showed. Ray-traced reflections have been added back in to the performance mode after being removed previously.

They shouldn’t have added the RT reflections back in. It might’ve helped it run at a higher base resolution if it didn’t have to render RT and so the upscaling might’ve been better.

I just don't understand the point of these Pro consoles. PSSR is simply not ready. This is just a beta for PS6. There is barely any resolution gain from the base version and has worse artifacts ffs. If I was a PS5 Pro owner, I would be pissed that the extra computing power is being used for this upscaling algorithm rather than pushing for higher native resolutions and higher graphics settings.
 
How can a studio see this result and say to itself that it's good, we can send the patch ?

It seems that in some studios, there is no quality control.

To see that performance mode can go below 720p is just mind-blowing. We have to believe that some studios just no longer know how to optimize their games.

Ask me about my wife's perfect butthole
Guess I'm happy I only play Sony exclusives with these 3rd party issues. I can't imagine they'll last long though.

I am super sensitive to upscaling algos and use them pretty sparingly on PC so just hoping in general we keep getting more and more options w/ settings.

Stop being mad about pieces of plastic.
The piece of plastic is being sold at 700$ - 800€, so it's normal that people want to discuss about it.

Also, before release you were making threads about the Pro constantly, but now that it's gotten bad rep because some games look like shit you are all "uuuh just ignore it dude, it's just plastic" on every thread.

Wtf dude.

It's still just a piece of plastic.

Stop trying to control what people talk about.

Nothing new about PSSR kinda suck at low res upscale.

Something new here Is EA lie? There is no 1200p even in the upper range?

Damn, just drop RT already, and bring game res close to 1300p average. What a bunch of stubborn devs.

Interesting, there is 1 win for PSSR and it is one of the most important win. PSSR is sharper in motion than even DLSS, so in higher rest it should perform the same.

They decided to bring back RT Reflections, RT GI, RT AO in Performance Mode and didn't notice how pathetic the sub-720p necessary to do so looked, and how broken the new AO was?

FSR right now:

Just allow PS5 Pro players to switch back to FSR or base PS5 version and problem's "fixed", partially at least.

PSSR will get better. DLSS was rough out the gate. People were talking mad shit about it and deservedly so. Rite of passage. PSSR likely won't become special until PS6. These Pro owners are beta testers like I was for DLSS buying a 2080TI.
