Assassin's Creed Origins - PS5 vs Xbox Series S/X- Next gen 60fps Patch Comparison
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
I find it so odd how Series X|S beats PS5 in the loading times when the PS5 has such a faster SSD and similar CPU, wouldn't the faster SSD be able to brute force better than the slower Series X|S SSD? Love having a 60fps update I wish more games did this.
Keep in mind this is still running in BC mode. In order to maintain backward compatibility on PS5, transfer speeds are likely limited to PS4 speeds artificially. Xbox has a more PC-like architecture where this limit probably isn't needed.
Ah that's right, but surely that speed is faster than PS4? so is it in some sort of in between mode or something.
The game isn't PS5 native? So they just sat on a build for half-a-year to remove the framelimit flag for the PS4 build.
PS4 games can't take full advantage of the PS5's SSD, unfortunately.
Not only that but there's a significant trickery in the API that's only available in a native PS5 App that boosts the speeds to the massive amount of 5-6 Gb/s. They can boost the overall speed, but it will be as limited as a PS4 Pro running an SSD instead of their stock PS4 drive.
This is what i dont get, how a faster loading time would break the game. HAs anyone ever explained why this is needed?
the actual architecture is identical. X86 for PS4/XB/PS5/XS
It's more than likely a simple case of MS being more efficient with their software. They've quite a few years on Sony in terms of BC, don't forget the miracles they pulled off with X360 games running on XB1.
It took Sony quite a while to add boost mode to ps4 pro as well. Maybe at some point they'll allow the Ps5 to unleash more of its power on PS4 sw.
One X spec still coming in clutch for these legacy titles getting uncapped frame rates. Can't wait to dive in again when it hits gamepass
I love the way long-term support has played out with many releases in the cross-gen window. This is such a neat bonus for new/current owners.
Benefits stemming from how software/hardware was handled last gen keeps paying dividends in releases like this on Xbox. Obviously PS5 is still an awesome bump, but resolution and loading time gets held back a bit without more resources put into a "native" patch.

Basically same as Odyssey. Another huge advantage is the game works perfectly with Quick Resume.
Already own this on Series X but I think I'm still gonna buy it on PS5 since I can get it cheap. Need them trophies.
Yeah, it's generally faster than stock PS4 but it's still way longer than native PS5 titles.
Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. In this case the game is locked at 60fps on all consoles. Sometimes that's not the case.
On topic... game still looks great!
Soooo ah... Assassin's Creed Liberation is next riiiight???
I don't think there is. Background characters often speak in those languages, but the main narrative is delivered in English or other modern languages.
Nobody speaks Ancient Egyptian, it's been dead for about 2,000 years. Even with all of Ubisoft's resources, that might be asking a bit much!
There are languages still spoken that are believed to be descendant from Ancient Egyptian but, I'm pretty sure, nobody actually knows what the language sounded like.

Ban 1 Week - Excusing lazy dev rhetoric with historical facts
I knew that the PS4 Pro will hold back the PS5. Sony were just rushing things to reelase their mid-gen console to eb first on the market and games paid the toll even on next gen. Hopefully both companies will rlease their mid-gen consoels during the same year so they will be identical just like the base current-gen.
And this too. MS could allow many skus to work according ot their versatile ecosystem.

Coptic is a known descendent of ancient Egyptian, this connection played a big role in the decipherment of hieroglyphs and the Rosetta Stone.
But yeah, any reconstruction of the actual sounds of ancient Egyptian would be at least partly speculative, and the whole effort to include something like that in the game would probably be beyond what most folks would need or appreciate. It's not as though there's a big community of Egyptian (or even Coptic) speakers looking for accuracy...
They could increase the max resolution on BC games like they did in the last Tomb Raider. But I think the limiting factor here would be the memory available on Pro (only 5.5 GB) as they'd need more memory for the bigger max resolution (4K) like on X1X which has 9GB of available ram.
Not true, depends on emulators and games, it's actually a rare case.
my last AC was Ezio 3...
AC then became everything that turns me off of AAA
however, i've sworn to myself to see this iteration through to the credits
i'm a little excited to be honest

I hope sony catches up. I mean to be fair PS4 Pro with an ssd speeds is plenty fast, and my ps4 games benefit massively from being on my 5's ssd. But still.

In itself what they have done is a perfectly valid approach, but next to what Xbox has achieved it looks a little pallid.
For Xbox we are seeing the culmination of a decade of work all coming together - the foundations for their ecosystem were being laid before Xbox one .
I don't think it has anything to do with rushing things, we know that Sony's priority was to end this generation and move straight the next. It's less about the hardware as such and more to do with APIs , tooling and policy for PS5.

PS4 games work on PS5 because the PS5 is convinced that it's a PS4. if you change anything about that you risk breaking compatibility. devs can go in and unlock framerates in cases like this because there's no theoretical reason why a PS4 game shouldn't be able to run at 60fps, but no PS4 game was ever designed around PS5-level SSD speeds so it's not within the scope of the emulator
