If anyone is having trouble getting online try this. First go to the profile setting on the main ps4 menu. Click on it, after a few seconds it will take you to some settings that you can change or leave ad is. After this you should be able to get back online. I will be posting this is other forums just fyi

Assetto Corsa is £23 on PSN UK, Alienation is £6, looks good.

PS4 Pro has arrived at the store I work in ready for the 10th. The box is massive and very very heavy in comparison to the standard PS4 boxes.

Like a PS3 fat to slim weight difference?

That looks like a Sainsbury's high value cage

Hard to tell from the boxes but it is noticeable. Slim to fat ps3 could be a good gauge but it's been a while since I had either.

Good guess. Must have seen a few in your time to have gotten that

Just seen a digital foundry video showing project cars on the new ps4 pro, and it has zero frame rate increase..thats a disappointment..

 

[MXH]

I've not seen the video but I'm guessing the game isn't taking advantage of the new hardware?

 

[imported_rik19]

About 4 minutes into this video, shows project cars..

HUGE SHAREFACTORY update today

Gif creation is nice and easy.

Take a look at @GideonLiddiard's Tweet:

It's messed up that you can only share it to Twitter and that's it. Not everyone has Twitter. I was hoping that you could share it pretty much everywhere, even thru PSN message. I like the photo mode though. I can probably make some good thumbnails using that.

Webm. support would have been awesome.

Which is totally in line with what Sony have been saying about the PS4 pro. I don't understand why people are STILL surprised by what this console is about. It's up to SMS to utilise the power and they won't. Simple.

PS4 Pro 1080p Sharefactory output.

 

[sems4arsenal]

@Scaff did you notice any framerate upgrades?

@Scaff did you notice any framerate upgrades?

Nope. Not that I expected any, developer's need to update software to take advantage of the extra grunt.

Unless they do do the performance is no different, it's down to the way in which the chip set is designed and to ensure no issues with backwards compatibility.

 

[JR98]

Just finished my first video using SHAREFACTORY 2.0 and have noticed that the rendering time has been very much improved. Before it usually took the length of the video to render but now it appears to be half that.



Also had a go with the photo mode:

 

[Elitekilla29]

I used photo mode and came up with this and then i saved it to my phone and used a photo editor app and came up with this.................

This can be great for making thumbnails.

I've been eyeing the Pro but there doesnt seem to be much info of racing games being patched aside from GTS which wont be out for a while. Has anyone seen any info on if/when games like driveclub, pcars, assetto corsa, F1 etc will get a patch? Driveclub probably won't get it.

Drivecars will not be getting a patch, the one most likely to receive one should be AC.

 

[black300zx]

Yes Driveclub is dead The lack of info on the other racing titles is a bit concerning. Hopefully the Pro sells well so devs are more likely to release their patch.

Oh I just thought like in the past, say 25 odd years ago, if you had the same machine upgraded, then programs and games usually ran faster and smoother, I thought it would be the same for this..Oh well..shame that.

That theory still applies in PC gaming. Perhaps now that all game developers are aware of upgraded consoles, we will see most if not all game developers making use of the extra performance in future releases.

 

[MeanElf]

Yes Driveclub is dead

I certainly wouldn't say dead, as I see plenty of folks online still and the community here is still very active. True, the original game won't be getting a Pro patch, but that still doesn't make the game dead: I've received almost 100 challenges in the past few days - so not dead, oh no.

As the Pro's has already quadrupled Sony's recent monthly sales figures, it's looking positive for game developers - so who knows.

Indeed. Unless the creating manufacturer explicitly states that isn't the case.

 

[doblocruiser]

Just came across "Silence" in the PSN store and I watched the trailer. Pretty stunning presentation and artwork

One question about HDR, how do you know if your TV has it or not?

Looking it up on the manufacturers website is your best bet.
