So odd ND keeping tight lipped about Part2 BC improvements. The game came out this year. We deserve a nice patch like what SP did. Or are they insinuating SP is the better studio also on a technical level? Even Bend? Hmm interesting. Seems ND has fallen from grace.

"Falling" into GOTY after GOTY in a few weeks...

Edit: Damnit, it was a meme??

Glad I held off on my permadeath run

Aswitch · Nov 10, 2020

God of War is definitely getting replayed for sure.

Tusken77 · Nov 10, 2020

So now not only does TLOU2 have gyro aiming, it has haptic feedback and adaptive trigger support too. *chef's kiss*

DC5remy · Nov 10, 2020

My god. All the games I want to play, and reply on the 5. How?

Bizzquik · Nov 10, 2020

I don't understand why Naughty Dog would go so far as to give us PS5-specific controller enhancements but NOT unlock the framerate.

If they want to resell the game, they can always do 60fps but at (Native) 4K, add quality-of-life features, textures, etc.
But for now, please Naughty Dog, give us 60fps !!

hey it's that dog said:
Has any reviewer commented on how well the Dualsense handles PS4 game rumble in general? Of course I'm excited about new haptic/trigger additions, but does the Dualsense more or less replicate the old rumble features as well, when appropriate?

I was going to keep my dualshock 4 just for accurate rumble in PS4 games, but maybe I don't need to?

I've heard on a video somewhere that it's not as good as the DS4 for rumble made for the DS4. Feels a little too strong. It's a shame but maybe it can be patched at a system level later.

Because you cant just unlock framerate its not that simple. It could cause alot of issues.

Gitaroo · Nov 10, 2020

They need to patch the resolution and fr too....

Egida · Nov 10, 2020

Can the charged strike in God of War possibly feel even more satisfying? We'll know soon.

I'm sure Naughty Dog of all developers could manage it if they really wanted to. We know the multiplayer when it comed out is most likely going to be 60 too.

thefragrance · Nov 10, 2020

I really wish I didn't go after the trophy and left my second playthrough for the PS5. Still can't wait to play it again.

Plum · Nov 10, 2020

This should be great but I'm not jumping in for my second playthrough until we get confirmation of either a 60fps patch or a Remaster (with cross-save I'll buy that, without I'll give in and just play the PS4 version). No way am I gonna do one just to be met with a superior experience a few months down the line.

Loudninja said:

I highly doubt Naughty Dog ties any significant game logic to frame rate. They didn't with any of their PS3 titles and that was on a console much more alien to the PS4 than the PS4 is to the PS5.

Can anyone check if Last of Us 2 got a patch recently?

If it's like Days Gone and Ghost of Tsushima the patch will only appear after you install it on the PS5 so someone with one of them would have to check.

I knew saving my platinum run of TLOU2 would be worth it.

Yesssss i did this too, cant wait to see how its optimized for ps5

It's not like the imminent launch of the PS5 snuck up on them. If that was ever going to be a problem they could have taken it into consideration long ago

mordecaii83 · Nov 10, 2020

Damn, I wasn't planning on a GoW NG++ run, but now it's on the list...

Korezo · Nov 10, 2020

That implementation probably takes more time to do than a resolution/uncapp fps update... Still cool i guess

I'm curious about the complete absence of Horizon Zero Dawn so far. It's not in the Playstation Plus Collection. No word on any free patches or even how it runs on PS5. And you'd think this would be one they'd want to highlight given the sequel comes next year.

Is it getting the Remaster treatment?

I'm pretty sure horizon has a locked frame rate, so it'll probably just run like the ps4 version.

chrisPjelly · Nov 10, 2020

Can't wait to try them out!

R dott B · Nov 10, 2020

Glad I waited to finish Tlou2

reKon said:
Sounds awesome. Now patch 60 FPS into there as well!

I believe God of War is at 60 FPS on PS5, IIRC. It's just not 4k.

Yeah that's not good enough. Not sure how difficulty it would be to update at different resolution, but I would be fine with at least 1440P @ 60 FPs.

Really? I heard the opposite that it felt much closer to what they thought the devs intended.

Guess, it probably depends on the game. At least "too strong" is easily fixed in the system menu

Blake the drunk · Nov 13, 2020

did anyone try this out on last out us 2? i really wanna see how the adaptive triggers work! lol

Patitoloco · Nov 13, 2020

Damn, both must feel amazing with the new triggers

Ricky_R · Nov 13, 2020

Still no official update on how TLOU2 will improve on PS5? Aside from this of course.

dadoes · Nov 13, 2020

sublime14 said:

I tried it. I don't see anything with adaptive triggers. I don't think a patch is out yet for this.

I need 60fps.

Ghost of tsushima at 60fps is amazing.

I can't go back to 30fps.

I'm hoping they just want to give the announcement\update a bit of space so it can hog the news cycle for a day. Maybe 2 or 3 weeks?

Genetrik · Nov 13, 2020

Maybe they will announce something together with the factions update. They may also simply announce a "new PS5" version where you have to pay another 70 bucks

jon bones · Nov 13, 2020

i forgot Factions is coming

GT7 + Factions + Activity Cards could keep those as permainstalled on the SSD for a generation

Deleted member 21339 · Nov 13, 2020

Cool. Look forward to trying it next year when there's actual consoles

reKon · Nov 13, 2020

Do we have any reason to doubt that God of War can easily run at 4K + 60 FPS frame rate with little work?

This is the next game I want to play apart from Astro's Playroom. I'm pretty sure I was like 90%+ complete before stopping for more than a year. I'm going to replay this on my new OLED TV w/ PS5.

Heliex · Nov 13, 2020

Ive been playing PS4 games on my PS5, and the Haptic difference is REALLY obvious between a game that uses it and a game that doesnt. It just feels weak when playing PS4 games. I still havent played GoW though, just downloaded it.

nexus · Nov 13, 2020

Nice, I've been wanting to play GoW again. That Axe probably feels great.

yalk_dx · Nov 14, 2020

i've yet to feel any use of adaptive triggers in TLOU2, at least when it comes to increased resistance from weapon to weapon. am i missing some kind of setting?

PLASTICA-MAN · Nov 14, 2020

Any videos on youtube on how they support the haptics?

Rendering... · Nov 14, 2020

Hnnnnggg, if this works with my existing new game+ files, I'll gladly play both games all over again.

a group of friends and I are really looking forward to Factions. Has ND ever officially come out and said it is coming?

leng jai · Nov 14, 2020

I played TLOU2 last night and could feel no difference in the rumble. The game hasn't had a patch in months either by the looks of it.

yeah they said it is expanding to a stand alone release and is coming... at some point

s y · Nov 14, 2020

Tried it and tlou2 definitely doesn't

Vonocourt · Nov 14, 2020

I thought for a split second that Marvel's Avengers had some type of Dualsense compatibilty.

I then used a DS4 controller, and it just seemed like a difference in how the rumble works between the controllers, rather than anything the game did.

the standard rumble has moved over to the new dualsense method, but at least right now the kind of astrobot/COD/demon's souls implementation isn't there

Tttssd1972 · Nov 14, 2020

Played TLOU2 for about an hour last night, and I noticed absolutely nothing as far as the feedback into Dualsense

dadoes · Nov 14, 2020

hoping that the next tlou2 patch will include adaptive triggers and 60fps. Been holding off on my 3rd play through until then.

Jawmuncher · Nov 14, 2020

A shame it wasn't added to GOT

BadAss2961 · Nov 14, 2020

Still waiting on a performance mode update.

The fact that Uncharted 4 and TLOU2 don't have it yet makes me think we're getting remasters instead.

Mugen X · Nov 14, 2020

Excellent. I've only gone through both of these once, time for a replay.
