32k with ps5 SSD. 64K if you link them in SLI.

If it does spec for spec then yes, the devs are intentionally capping the framerate on the consoles.

It depends on the context, for hardware, when you say a console will have a hard drive as standard, it means all models will have it, no excpetions, just like a car, saying ABS or Airbags as "Standard" means every model will contain ABS brakes and Airbags, so I can see how people will interpret that statement as all games guaranteed to be 60fps, but I don't interpret it that way, I see it like 360/PS3 generation where 720p was the standard, yet we had some games lower than 720p and even some games as 1080p. So it stands to reason that most games will run at 60fps (720p) go below 60fps (600p) or go beyond and hit 120fps (1080p).

I think that is the problem though. People are thinking the series x it's the equivalent of a 2080 and a 3700x cpu. They are not the same. Especially when you take into account of having dedicated system memory. Take a look at the Minecraft demo and you'll see where things start to fall apart.
It's crazy to think Ubisoft would nerf the framerate of next gen consoles. Only getting 61fps on a 2080 TI in Odyssey didn't bat an eye when it released, but look how things are backfiring now for Ubisoft. Next gen consoles are the biggest thing to happen for casual gamers in the past 7 years. Ubisoft would be crazy not to upsell consoles, in the best light possible. The same people who would buy into the AC franchise, would buy Valhalla either way. Now to see a "next gen" version of the game, could easily make AC one of the biggest launch games, ever. It's not about Ubi gimping consoles, as that would never help the company, as a pc gamer or a console gamers perspective.
The real problem is buying into the hype from Microsoft and Sony PR. Take that and all the hypeman warriors on both sides, and you get people thinking next gen consoles will give you 8k120fps because of the SSD.

I can't even be in PCMR, my SSD ain't fast enough apparently.Spec for spec, what does this mean I wonder?
I don't need your PCMR story.

Depends on a game and things like anti-aliasing, but I recently played a game called The Vanishing of Ethan Carter and on Xbox One X you can switch resolution instantly, between 1080p, 1440p and 4K. You might think there is not a lot of difference until you see it one right after another, even between 1440p and 4K.

I think imma pull the trigger and go with AMD this year. But probably won't get a super fast SSD for a year or so. My Samsung's are doing just fine for now.

Hopefully this virus shit dies down soon, and won't disrupt too much in the technology world...

Only developer can explain how easy is incorate speperate modes. The only problem I see is if did that
Thats 5 version before taking into consideration the testing on individual graphics carrds and processors etc on PC.
However this purely speculation the only right answer is from someone in dev community.

If only my penis was as big as my GamerScore!
For those smarter than me, how hard would it be to incorporate VRS on a cross-gen game like this?

The problem with lower resolution is it being too low to see the entire rendering approximation. Upscaling takes away from the true image. Running at lower res also takes away when you are running on a native 4k screen because the internal TV will have to upscale it to 4k which causes blurring of pixels.
The only real way to enjoy good clarity graphics is to run at 4k native. Or run at the native resolution of the medium to get a perfect 1:1 pixel to pixel ratio from framebuffer to TV.

Totally true upscaling will never better than native however good 4k TV has really good scaling while it looks worlds better at 4k native 1080p material still looks pretty good, considering TV shows outside amazon and netflix havnt gone 4k I would say good 60-70% my content is 1080p if broadcast they can be SD witch is where it really gets bad.
There's also augment to make that not everyone has gone 4k yet.

In the end, Ubisoft just made Ubisoft as always did

Native 4K is just waste of resources IMO. It is a cross-gen game so I think it should not have a problem. But otherwise I am sure things like gfx detail, fps will be given importance than native resolution.

Chances are it is using it on the platforms that support it.
These tech things are a meme. That's not to say they aren't helpful and beneficial - they're not blast processing - but they're not the magic secret sauce people on the internet make them out to be. And if Ubi decided to make the game 30fps, that's that.

There's no mention on whether you'll have a "Performance mode" in the options menu for people who don't have a 4K TV or who are fine with a 1440 resolution at 60fps. My pitchfork and torch are put away until I find out more lol.
i remember playing Ps2 games at any fps they where that time and then playing ps3 games at like 28fps most times and thinking wow what a game , and now people wont buy game because of some fake news about fps, i mean this went long way , and you shouldnt be called gamer for this at all. i dont care, i played witcher 3 in time at 20-15fps in worse cases and i enjoyed game on 840m gpu laptop. never i thought : wish i could play it at more fps. it just doesnt matter .

At this point in time even a 533MB/s SATA SSD will give you 95% is the benefits a 3.2GB/s NVmE drive will.
Hopefully we will eventually have some credible use case for all that extra speed.
It matters, but I think that very few people will make their final decision on buying a game or not on a game's resolution or performance.
Still, if you happen to own a PS4 and a PC (or Switch/xbox whatever) you are very likely to choose the platform where your desired game runs best--obviously, few people have more than one gaming platform, many who have PCs/Macs don't play on it.
Then there is the general preference factor, some people have allegiance to one platform, even if they bought the other one they will just ignore the benefits.
So it's important in a prestige way, it will help a company establish their machine as the "true next gen experience", a bit like the PS4 did early on in the last generation, and then it will drive up sales to a certain demographic who cares about this, the hope is that they will spread the buzz to their friends and eventually 100million consoles will be sold just like that... Assuming the games are showing up to back the claims.

And based off what has been said about the Unreal Engine demo, many people won't even need to upgrade. Of going above and beyond that, couldn't hurt, and could possibly have added benefit! This will be a great year for everyone!
