Quantum Error Dev: Cerny Is A Genius, PS5 Feels Designed with Developers In Mind; Zen 2 Is Exciting

The quotes comes from Official PlayStation Magazine.

We feel the man is an absolute genius! It felt like the system is designed with developers in mind. We are really excited about the Zen 2 CPU, which will make things possible on PS5 that were not on PS4. Also, the Tempest audio engine explanation made us squeal like little excited kids! The HRTF and sound experience that we will be able to create for our players is truly groundbreaking with the PS5.

We fully expect we can achieve an early PS5 launch for Quantum Error. However, we dream and pray we could release as a PS5 launch title, and believe if you set your mind to something and work hard you can achieve anything..

Our goal for Quantum Error is 60fps even on the PS4, and with the specs of the PS5, we believe it is achievable with pushing it to hit 4K with that framerate. Our focus is on PS5 first and then to optimise for PS4. We are open to a timed exclusive or full exclusive.

The man is a genius and the console is designed with developers in mind...when it's essentially an x86_64 PC compatible made up largely of off the shelf components?
The console hype trains never cease to make me laugh.
He is talking about the DevKit Tools I believe when he says system.
It is not the first dev to praise the PS5 DevKit tools to be fair... there is a interview with Shu where he says the feedback from devs oversea is pretty good and most says it is the easier system to develop games Sony ever created.

"Off the shelf" LOLOLOLOL GTFO with that hyperbolic noise. Only console I remember with close to off the shelf parts was the OG Xbox and that was cuz MS had never made a console before and thought it was just a PC.... and even theirs wasn't actually off the shelf.

You think Apple is using "off the shelf" HW cuz they use ARM processors?

RDNA 2.5 from the rumors going around at the moment... supposedly it's RDNA2 with a few extra features that will be found in RDNA 3 or later cards coming to market.

Hopefully this will be confirmed by PS in their event.
They really need some positive news, cause the last few weeks have not been good for them.

The real news would be if the dev from one of the few announced Ps5 games was like "Ps5 is ok, Cerny isn't that great" while talking to the Official PlayStation Magazine and suggesting they'd like to become a timed exclusive
At least we know they are neither timed or full exclusives yet.

Great to know that their PS4 launch looking game might be able to hit 4k on the PS5.

I was worried that I would give even less of a shit about the game from the dev pseudo famous for talking about PS5 on the record.
From how they are talking I don't expect the PS4 version to be released together with the PS5 version.
It will probably come after.
Their focus is with PS5 version and they want to be in the launch windows.

Makes a lot of sense because these games benefices at the early console life where Indie sales are strong due the lack of AAA output.

There is no RDNA 2.5 or 3.0 as of yet. That is pure nonsense. Also thats a no to it getting features from the next revision of RDNA.. Let's be realistic.

You can't develop to PS5 without a PS5 DevKit...
It is not like Xbox where you can use the own console.
They are 4 people team which shown some footage of UE4 game with UE marketplace assets. There is no way they already have devkit. In addition to that they would be quiet about that because of NDA. No other developer is commenting so much about that system.

Well...

"It appears TeamKill Media isn’t allowed to mention if the devs even have access to PS5 devkits, but the team behind the horror game did admit that 3D audio and haptic feedback were being incorporated into Quantum Error gameplay. "


You can't say you will add a feature if you don't have the devkit.
And I don't believe OPM will do a interview with a PS5 Dev that doesn't have a PS5 Devkit.

If they don't have the DevKit then there is something so wrong with all these interviews.

I’m confused. I mean they must have a devkit already, right? The quotes from the article make it sound like they haven’t actually used a PS5 and are excited about the GDC quotes. For example, why would the Tempest Audio explanation make you giddy if you already have a devkit and are developing a PS5 game, so you’ve already actually experienced it yourself.

kinda sounds like they are just parroting the Cerny GDC presentation.

I guess any dev with any quote is gonna a get a headline thread if it fits either side’s propaganda.

Didn’t they put up gameplay from the PS5 version of their game? They must have a devkit, why does it sound like they don’t?

Yea but we are talking about sony who dropped the PS2 and the PS3 on developers and said "have fun" and we all spent forever learning how to make the boxes work. After a couple more gens of solid HW design choice, THEN I will get tired of it.
yeah, and its obvous they will continue PS4 tradition since it was sucessfull..

Not quite... it has a customised Zen 2, a completely custom storage hardware solution and a custom hardware accelerated audio engine. Not really "off the self" is it.

Can you post the links to the credible leaks please?

To be honest, everything surrounding the ps5 and secret sauce is eerily reminiscent of the xbox ones secret sauce rumours/dreams

Yes, you can. You can also develop game without devkit. That's how most of launch games are made for most of their development time. Final dev kits are created more or less one year before launch and average game development time is like 3 years.

I didn't say they were credible....I'd say about 50/50. I'm not believing till it's confirmed.


Tidux seems to be the source.
