I am absolutely loving my Pro at the moment. First game I played on it was TLOU 1 Remake, and was floored. I'm playing through Elden Ring now on Quality mode, and it runs great with beautiful visuals. My next games will be Spider-Man MM, Spider-Man 2, GT7, FF7 Rebirth and Dragon Dogma 2, while waiting to see the PSSR 4K 120fps for BO6.

But to say that PSSR doesn't work, and that a lawsuit should be brought is just not right. It's early days, and Sony's developers are able to work magic with it's implementations on their games, so other 3rd party developers can do the same. We just have to give them a bit more time with the new tech.

We're gonna be stuck with those half assed patches until the end of holidays, aren't we?

When Pro was announced I thought Outlaws, Silent Hill 2, Alan Wake 2, Avatar, etc. would really benefit from the extra hardware and look incredible.

At this point I've given up on proper patches and I'm starting to realize this will take 6mo-1year to improve and hopefully not longer. It's a terrible launch full of inconsistent support which is basically a public PS6 beta test.

All these issues would be easily avoidable by just implementing options to turn things on and off.
Sony's games where things work great are giving options, it's absurd that certain third parties do not look at the results of their work and think it's fine or that people won't notice and they remove options.
If something doesn't work well for your game don't use it or let people decide if the compromise is worth it

This made me question my Steam purchase yesterday.

On one hand the PC version is till going to be better overall, but on the other after redeeming 8750 points on PS Stars, and $20 already in my wallet it would make the game basically free on PS and I've spent way too much money this month (Flexispot desk, 5700x3d, 3x 30th Dualsense, new running shoes, new trail running shoes, and $120 of movies/tv on Apple TV).

Hmmmmmmm, I might put in a refund request on Steam.

Reading around the net, the Avatar patch has gone down well lol:

Fuck yeah that gives me hope for other games ..

Would love a patch for Plague Tale Requiem which is an amazing looking game but not in its performance mode

I have a sliver of hope now for wukong. Shame on Sony for no Returnal patch. No Helldivers 2 patch is kinda ridiculous as well.

Just keep the superior PC version and use your points to get a game that's exclusive to ps5...or a game you don't own

Most of the upgrades are great, people just focus on the bad ones.

Excellent. I plan to make my purchase by then when the update is released.

 

[Certinty]

As stupid as it sounds, if it wasn’t for GTA VI I think I would have returned my Pro by now.

 

[Gusy]

I kinda want to go to Massive and Respawn studios and meet the devs. In my head the conversation plays out like this:

- Me: Approaches dev and hugs him tightly and lovingly. Approach his ear and whisper: " Shhhh shhhh… it's ok. It's ok. Let it go.. "
- Dev: what.. wha.. let what go?
- Me: I hug him tight: " Let PSSR go.. You can let it go… it's ok"
- Dev: " But Cerny said.. the upscaler would.."
- Me: Still hugging him : " Shhhh shhhh I know ..it's ok…. But you have to let go.. It's not ready"
- Dev: But it takes just 2,5 milliseconds to…."
- Me: Grabs both of his arms firmly "Look into my eyes, look at me… you need to hit your target frametimes at base resolutions above 1200p, we know that's hard, maybe impossible right now.. and thats ok.. it's time to let go"
- Dev gets a tear in his eye, nods approvingly. I get a tear in my eye. We hug again with a smile on our face.

The TAA healing begins…..

Not sure if I haven't played enough yet, but Alan Wake 2 looks very sharp via PSSR in performance mode. The added raytracing in Quality is a bit shimmery so far, so performance is the superior option I think.

 

[terintamel]

What is interesting is that for Avatar I do not notice the image quality issues. It looks and runs better as far as I can tell. My guess is that I have a 1080p TV, so maybe the issues with PSSR scaling are not as noticeable as the image is downsampled to 1080p for me. I guess if I had a 4K TV I would notice the instability issues.

 

[Sushen]

PS5 Pro is one of those cases, you need to go back to PS5 to fully appreciate it because you’ll be adjusted to Pro quickly and feels “normal”.

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

So I just learned that Avatar looks worse now than Fidelity mode used to on PS5.

We are actually LOSING the only true next games to bad fucking patches on the Pro right now.

Avatar and Sw Outlaws were the two BEST examples of RTGI on console! Anything that looks worse than Fidelity mode previously is a complete fucking failure considering these fucking idiots are only giving us ONE MODE now...

Sh2, Sw Outlaws, and now Avatar are all worse looking shimmery messes on our $800 machine ...the Pro is not a success to me until this bullshit is reversed and these games are looking better, NOT worse!

God damn it im pissed off at Ubisoft

Better finish the game this month then before they fuck something up. Performance on the pro is currently great and image quality very acceptable. It can only go down from here.

 

[TehGoomba7s]

This console is nothing but a joke $700, for this garbage. Sony really should be sued for this. It’s frustrating how a product with such a high price tag can be so disappointing. They promised so much, yet the experience doesn’t come close to meeting expectations. Honestly, I wish this company would go bankrupt; $700 for this trash is unbelievable.

4 or 5 bad games from incompetent devs, like 50 or so great to amazing ones. Why the fuck are you leaving that out? Doesn't fit your narrative.

 

[TehGoomba7s]

PS5 Pro is one of those cases, you need to go back to PS5 to fully appreciate it because you’ll be adjusted to Pro quickly and feels “normal”.

I had the chance to have it side by side for awhile before I sold my base, and the difference was staggering at times in real time. Such a good piece of tech for the standout games.

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Just bought Ghost recon Breakpoint from the BF sale. It's only a PS4 game but apparently runs better on ps5. Does anyone know if it has a dynamic resolution and if it runs better on the pro?

Digital Foundry has a video on this update (well, it's an old video back when the patch released), but that 2 year old tweet reminded me that Ubisoft has yet to patch the better Ghost Recon game, Wildlands. That one is so much better than Breakpoint... it's a shame, but maybe there's still a chance since they recently patched AC Syndicate, so perhaps they'll revisit Wildlands as well.

Been waiting to finish this campaign, which already looks excellent by the Pro muscling to a clean 1080p in performance mode.

Yisss.

 

[DAHGAMING]

As stupid as it sounds, if it wasn’t for GTA VI I think I would have returned my Pro by now.

Im realy mixed on the pro, 1st party stuff seems decent but the rest of the games not so good. I have a PS5 and the plan was to get a pro for my desk and move the PS5 downstairs but im put off by alot of the reaction, the thing that will probably make me cave will be GTA6. Im mainly on PC now days but its going to be some wait and thats 1 of the very few games I will play on release.

 

[XXL]

yet to patch the better Ghost Recon game, Wildlands. That one is so much better than Breakpoint...

I have it on PC, but I would love a PS5 update for Wildlands.

There's definitely still a chance and yeah Wildlands was peak Ubisoft goodness.
