Playstation Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart launches June 11 on PS5

[Necrokiller]

Be the judge for a game Necrokiller has already deemed PS2 era. At least I didn't go that far

Ofcourse, that won't change.

Dem CerebralTiger certified game changing next gen dimensional shifts tho? We'll see

 

[CerebralTiger]

Potentially game changing, but weren't actually

Spider-Man 2's faster traversal is definitely looking like a change for the better tho

Given that the dimension shifting portals/crystals are placed at fixed locations, Nixxes could simply alter the way streaming is handled and start loading in data in advance rather than doing it instantly, and Necrokiller would think it's DirectStorage that's doing the heavy lifting

 

[Necrokiller]

Why does the thread title say PC? The game has only been announced for PS5 so far

Lets keep the same energy shall we ?

Also, remember when this game was "only possible with PS5's SSD"?

The environment-altering portals are all scripted, so it's nothing that can't be loaded from a hard drive in advance with modified data management

This game is an early look at how I/O speeds can be leveraged to bring about new possibilities with game design. Loving them dimensional shifts!

Day 1 dexpass for me!

 

[CerebralTiger]

Yeah, an early look is what it is. Had the player been able to create and transition through portals at any instance, then we'd actually be seeing those possibilities come to fruition

That didn't stop it from blowing your mind, making gifs and insisting "THIS IS NEXT-GEN"

Mind blown!!

It's also important to realize that improving LOD management isn't the goal of fast I/O. It's to provide rapid access of decompressed data to the cpu/gpu

This is next-gen. This is value

 

[CerebralTiger]

Technically, it is impressive, since Insomniac is loading the entire level near instantaneously, but by design, the game doesn't require it. It could even be made to run on a PS4

Spider-Man 2, on the other hand, would need to have its faster traversal speed nerfed in order to run on last-gen hardware, even with lower asset quality

 

[Necrokiller]

It could even be made to run on a PS4

We went from 'THIS IS NEXT GEN'

to

'could've been a PS4 game'

 

[Necrokiller]

It could even be made to run on a PS4

I don't know about that, but they did make it run on a Steam Deck.

Ray-tracing on AMD GPUs is disabled at launch. We are working closely with AMD to enable support as soon as possible.

AMD console can do RT, AMD PC cannot.

Nixxess saeeen Nixxess.

 

[Necrokiller]

Sucks for that 12%, Nixxes will fix it tho.

But what about the 100% of PS5 users not getting RT Shadows and RT AO?

Can Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart on PC match - and exceed - the PS5 experience?

Digital Foundry shares first impressions on an eagerly awaited port.

www.eurogamer.net

There are missing transparency effects present on PS5, but absent on the maxed PC experience

texture loading issues, where the PS5-grade asset simply never loaded on the PC game. There are ray tracing consistency problems where the maxed experience can have some areas that are of a lower quality than PS5

the portal transition process does indeed complete more quickly on PlayStation 5 than it does on the most high-end PC around.

All of these issues give the impression that - once again - a PC port has launched when it's not in a fully polished state.
