This is what I'm thinking.

If so...

With image upscaling...

Using frame generation to go from 30 to 60fps is awful. It will further add to the latency. It should never be used as a crutch. AMD recommends 60fps+ and NVIDIA recommends 40fps+ before enabling it. They do not recommend toggling it on at low frame rates, let alone 30, without any kind of solution to mitigate the increased latency. The game would look smoother, but there would be an even bigger disconnect between what you see on screen and what you press.

Please, no.

Ah, the glorious idea of linking game calculations and mechanics to frame rate.

It is a FromSoft game after all.

I doubt most Console 60 fps whores could tell the difference.

 

[Draugoth]

Unlikely, Bloodborne has engine limitations that forbid 60 fps on console

 

[joeygreco1985]

Frame gen to 60fps + upscaling isn't going to be some silver bullet. The game needs a remake

 

[Aesius]

If there's any game that needs only a remaster and not a remake, it's Bloodborne. A remake would be guaranteed to have worse art direction, ambience, and atmosphere.

 

[Hohenheim]

There's no reason why Bloodborne can't be patched to run at 60fps on the ps5 amateur, so if they make a "pro" patch to make it run at 60 on the pro, that's just silly.

.....(and I would get a pro for it)

 

[Moonjt9]

State of play coming very soon and you know they will have ps5 pro games there. I still say Bloodborne will make an appearance. It just has to.

 

[Hrk69]

Unlikely, Bloodborne has engine limitations that forbid 60 fps on console

What about 120 fps?

 

[Ronin_7]

You guys are going crazy over here

 

[TintoConCasera]

I wonder what will happen first, if Sony finally doing a remaster, or the game being fully and perfectly playable on shadPS4.

[Thief1987]

It needs remake, it's hurting eyes how terrible it looks

 

[XXL]

I'm slightly confused here about the 60fps claims in this thread.

You have one camp saying it's impossible without a patch and the other camp saying it's already available and possible.

 

[GigaBowser]

[Hookshot]

Best thing about Bloodborne getting remastered is then people will no longer have to talk about Bloodborne getting remastered.

There are modded consoles/game versions that can run the game perfectly @ 60fps

What about 120 fps?

 

[bundylove]

I want to understand this obsession with bloodborne.
Was by far the easiest souls game and one the most lienar ones.
Like my best friend keeps saying, turn the page, let the past be the past

 

[MarkMe2525]

While possible, "higher performance" just as likely describes hitting current target framerate with more consistency. The second qoute, from Cerny, seems to be referencing higher visual fidelity and doesn't mention performance.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

I'm more thinking a Remake is happening.

 

[Sleepwalker]

Its been 9 years, let it go.

 

[rm082e]

I still firmly belive BluePoint is doing a full remake like they did for Demon's Souls.

 

[Physiognomonics]

You are imagining things OP. Nothing written in those statements imply anything of what you want. This is all a dream.

 

[digdug2]

It doesn't need a remake, when a remaster would do just fine. All they need to do is use better assets (that most likely exist), chill out on the chromatic aberration, and boost the frames to 60. If they asked for Cerny's help, they would most likely get it.

So I was reading over the CNET article again and noticed these two sections, that I don't believe are being discussed enough because of all the drama surrounding the system regarding pricing.

PlayStation 5 Pro Hands-On First Look: Here's What I Learned

Exclusive: I checked out the new console upgrade, coming Nov. 5 for $700, and played a bunch of games. Here's who might appreciate the new graphics boosts the most.

www.cnet.com

I don't think the dream is dead, in fact I think it's very much alive. I think Bloodborne may be able to be 60fps with AI upscaling on this system.

I'm also very interested in what the different modes on PS5 Pro means. Is there a performance mode and what does that mean exactly?

The CPU in the base PS5 is already significantly more powerful than the Jaguars in the PS4. You don’t need the Pro to run Bloodborne at 60fps on current gen.

There’s most certainly a business decision - probably centered on a remake - behind Sony’s decision to keep the title at 30fps.

 

[NeverYouMind]

I'm slightly confused here about the 60fps claims in this thread.

You have one camp saying it's impossible without a patch and the other camp saying it's already available and possible.

Both statements are true. There are jail broken PS5s with a fan patch for Bloodborne that run at 60 fps. Last I looked into it they were modifying a handful of gameplay elements that do not behave the same way as they do at 30 fps.

The unofficial patch is literally available and has been for like two years. I was finally able to jailbreak my PS4 Pro and played it with the 60fps patch a month ago. The only trade off is to lock the resolution to 720p. If, however, you're playing it on a jailbroken PS5, you can run it 60fps at 1080p.

People have got to stop spreading lies about it being impossible, when it has been possible for years.

Not to mention that they didn't recompile the game with current SDK's. They bodged the container ID's to make it think it was something it wasn't, so its nowhere near optimal.

 

[Shifty1897]

Do you not understand the problem? It's locked to 30fps. To unlock it, you have to go in and change the code. PS5 Pro Boost is not going to do that.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

I will not let Bloodborne hurt me any longer...I will not let...

 

[consoul]

Sony could have dropped a 60fps patch for Bloodborne on PS5 any time they wanted to.

I think PS5 Pro is the reason they haven't. They've been waiting. A patch enabling 60fps and other enhancements on PS5 Pro will stealth drop at launch.

 

[Bieren]

Anyone know what Bluepoint is working on?

 

[MaKTaiL]

Maybe they could fake 60 fps with Frame Gen.

This would be absolutely game changing for older titles. A system wide frame gen solution like AMD AFMF could automatically double frame rate without messing with game code.

 

[Rush2112]

I have ZERO faith.

If I had an unpatched ps4 unit I would pirate this game right now.

 

[RoboFu]

Sony's response... " What's a bloodborne? ... Do you mean Horizon!? "

 

[Sooner]

Anyone know what Bluepoint is working on?

They are making their own, new game

 

[RickMasters]

Pretty sure you can play on PC at 60FPS these days via emulation

 

[Kenneth Haight]

At this point I’d rather have RDR2

 

[Kokoloko85]

Like the Last Guardian, unless it gets patched for uncapped frame rate, nothing is gonna give it 60fps

 

[XXL]

At this point I’d rather have RDR2

I have RDR2 on PC.

I want Bloodborne to be 60fps on PS5. I don't care if it's a patch, remake or remaster.
