Support NeoGAF

What capture card do they use? If it doesn't support VRR and 120fps then it's useless.
Edit:

But adams said the science was sound…

 

[MDSLKTR]

The loading times are extra mind-blowing because starfield gave us PTSD.

You can just tag me, no need to be coy about it

In the video the guy goes through the process of exporting output to Premier Pro. But it doesn't look like his output was good.

I hope you're not English, I wouldn't be able to deal with the irony.

Minor typo. I couldn't even understand what the fuck the guy was saying. Also, no, I'm not English, or a native speaker for that matter.

Lol the building on the far right almost blend in with the sky.

 

[NEbeast]

To be fair, that is the nature of open world games.

Games like Starfield or SM2 coming out with minimal bugs like this is a huge turnaround from the state the same kinds of games released in on PS3/360.

You had to compare the two. SM2 is on a different level and Starfield had way more bugs.

Please tell me there's a toggle to disable chromatic aberration in the options?

It was the case with SM1, I'd be surprised if they omitted it in SM2.

The reflections on the very distant buildings are something. The biggest building reflects so well the sky that it's almost invisible!

Please tell me there's a toggle to disable chromatic aberration in the options?

Yes. Along with all the usual annoying filters than can also be removed.

Just checked the settings and you can turn that off, plus's turn off motion blur and depth of field and you can adjust the amount of film grain

You can also turn off full screen effects (vignettes, flashing low health effects etc), you can turn on/off centre dot and a load of high contrast settings.

Anything else just ask

Edit: one final thing, you can turn the HUD completely off plus loads of other HUD options like notification settings, turn off just the mini map etc

 

[Shane89]

- RT also includes 'secondary reflections' (reflections in reflections)

 

[TheRedRiders]

Anyone know how good the HDR implementation is on this game?

 

[Luipadre]

Anyone know how good the HDR implementation is on this game?

Its great in every insomniac game so i assume its the same here aswell

 

[Games of Today]

i think since the game has fixed time of day they can pretty much bake the light as they want and achieve a close result to RTGI, RTGI is more for games that day and night cycle like TW3, but i can be wrong.

No I think you're right for the most part. That's why Naughty Dog's lighting is always spectacular.

Another PS5 technical showcase from Insomniac incoming.

I cannot wait to play this tomorrow.

I love seeing ppl quick to get the FUD flowing only to get smacked down by facts.

I didnt even look at the video and I assumed he was using a TV. And all TV's might not even report it correctly.

 

[RoadHazard]

I'm starting to really feel my lack of a 120Hz/VRR capable TV... 40Hz mode seems like the obvious choice if you have that, but between 30 and 60?

No surprise who the poster who trawled youtube for such a hot take was

 

[TheTony316]

Well, my copy arrived early.

 

[The artful mincer]

Is this Nick930 allowed?



Difference's seem pretty big. I still wish someone would do a comparison to the BASE PS4 version. The only fair true fair generational comparison.

Oh well a man can dream.

Yeah, it's a big upgrade even compared to the PS5 remaster.

All open world games have their share of jank, none are immune.

It's a notable upgrade, especially with respect to RT reflections over SSR and lighting, but weird that some incidental things things are worse, instead of being the same as PS4.

 

[HeWhoWalks]

Always know who you can count on to find that PlayStation jank!

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

Play 30. SM and MM are about as smooth a 30 as any games this gen. You'll quickly get used to it.

 

[Revolutionary]

Just ran into a weird bug where a character was rendered in a low-poly model for the entirety of a cutscene. She genuinely looked like Angel of Darkness Lara Croft lol. I tried reloading my save and even rebooting the game but the bug was persistent.

I would post pictures but it's somewhat spoilery since it's the 'ending' to a sidequest chain.

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

When you do upgrade your PC, either next year or in 3 years, be sure to make it an LG OLED. They have better input lag than LCDs no matter what the reviewers will say and they have all the features you'd want from a high end TV. just beware that 30 fps on OLEDs will not feel as smooth in all games because of the instant pixel refresh rate. Some games feel better like FF16 but some games like horizon just felt off and required tinkering with settings. Still, the good outweigh the bad and with 40 fps becoming standard in most sony exclusives, its the best way to play games on an LG OLED.

Horizon feels a lot smoother than FF16, esp after Guerilla removed sharpening filters, primarily because FF16 has an auto center camera (so dumb for games to have this in 2023). With auto centering you get judder when you turn the camera but also when the damn game centers the camera. Also, isn't the motion blur of FF16 inferior as well?

I've played 90% of Forbidden West at 30 fps. It's a "good 30" as far as many games go.

Well there worse than the remastered PS5 version not the PS4 version .

Those crazy can details weren't on the PS4.

Reminder of the improvement that remaster was over the base PS4.

Isn't Spider-Man 2 considered pretty polished though?

It is stupid to review such trifles in and increíble work from Inmsoniac, but in honor of the truth and in favor of adamsapple, that specifically would not be part Of The bug according to John himself who confirms that there are details that could have been the focus of optimizations to benefit the improvement in other sections.

Bet you $10 all the people who've put me on ignore will have no issue quoting my posts the next time I write something they don't like

But anyway, folks talking about John's twitter 'already confirming it was fixed' was for very specific long distant LoDs, some closer details and some incidental details (like fountains at a certain LoD) still appear lower quality in SM2 over SM Remastered.

I've added John's responses above, as did D Darsxx82
