roun90 Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 (edited) Looking at reddit and other sites - seems that the new update has destroyed PS+. No way to get online, and no cloud saves. Only the free games were spared. Such stupidity Hope Sony fixes this quickly. Edited March 23, 2022 by roun90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't go online without the latest patch, and the latest patch destroys your ability to go online. No way to roll-back patch. Also, so many people reporting that it's not a one-off. I wonder - did Sony even test the patch before rolling it out? Horrible performance on Sony's part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first thought as well. I'm sure this was jn beta for months, and it didn't show up?! Almost like someone did a hotfix in production and made it live without even basic testing.

It’s the only real advantage SX had over PS5 so far. (apart from freebies of course) It is a boon for games that can’t really lock themselves at a stable Framerate. Basically more & more newer performance heavy games that have to showcase a respectable resolution on PS5/SX but also want a buttery smooth performance. Deathloop Dying Light 2 Elden Ring are at the top of my mind which will benefit massively with VRR on PS5.

Apparently there is VRR, Vsync, G sync, Freesync .... I run ps5 on a 60 hz 32" monitor with 1440p resolution so i guess i shouldnt think about this much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically OLED territory. Xbox supports Freesync over hdmi which can be had in a monitor even under Rs 10k. I myself got a monitor with Freesync premium with extended VRR support even below its limit, 120 fps, HDR etc. It basically supports whole shebang that console offers. With excellent IPS picture quality. All for under 14k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarbonCore Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 2 hours ago, Soultrader92 said: Is VRR really such a big deal? can someone pls explain? VRR helps with framepacing (random stutter) and screen tearing by matching the game framerate with display framerate. And screen tearing is usually not an issue with modern games. If however you're sensitive to framerate drops it wont do jack. A 45 fps game will feel like 45 fps game on both VRR and non-VRR displays. Its not a crutch like some people believe if your game wavers between 30-50 fps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
