Actually that's just what NXGamer thinks, beyond him, people from Beyond3D and the guy who manages the PS4 Pro thread on GAF confirmed separately that it's native 4K, not checker board.

Time to jump in to the Pro version of Witcher 3 Brehs (sm1).

Even if its native we’ve seen the end result is way too blurry so its some rendering method or post process AA which is causing this. The distant foliage is messed up too. Even the usual tech analysts can’t say anything for certain and DF isn’t any better at it.

Thats a 'choke point' for the CPU though, while the bog area stresses the GPU more, where the Pro drops more frames than the base PS4.

hey if i'm getting 4K with 2 frame drops at a known choke point and 4 frame improvement at another, i'd say that's a win win.

you might even say .. that's a a Pro version (sm1)

LOL looks like your Pro version is gonna need a few more patches.

hey if i'm getting ”faux 4K “with 2 frame drops at a known choke point and 4 frame improvement at another, i'd say that's a win win.

Didn’t DF also report it utilizing CB method? Man, its just a bog standard update like most Pro patches. I highly doubt more than a handful people worked on this. But hey, atleast its somewhat better than the way you initially played it.

Yeah, DF updated that it's rendering native 4K via CB, it's still rendering a full native 4K pixel grid, just using recreation to increase horizontal res from 1980 to 4K, vertical is native 4K regardless.

Still, better IQ and resolution than what even most PC players would have gotten to play the game at :p

Jesus not this shit again. Despite what Beyond3d claimed it was clear to me that the “native” 4K isn’t looking good enough here, and turns out it using CB. I know what CB does and I dont want any of that in my games, unless there is a significant boost to performance in return. And what did CB result in? Graphical settings are still same as base PS4 and frame rate is more of less same as well. So i fail to see what appreciable gain CB is bringing to the table. Id much rather have the crispness of true native at a lower res combined with buttery smooth 60fps, than the blurriness and artefact prone CB. Its great that you can't tell the difference. I'd personally suggest you to see an optometrist....

A card less powerful than the PS4 outperformed it at launch, so no, you’re terribly mistaken as always when it comes to how well an equivalent PC performs.

doesn't matter, pro goodness awaits (sm1)

turns peasants into rich noblemen while improving iq and texture filtering tremendously





also, ambient occlusion actually got an upgrade to hbao as per df:
HBAO is way inferior to HBAO+.

to overcome these issues, nvidia’s louis bavoil has completely redeveloped and revamped screen space ambient occlusion to create hbao+, a paradigm shift in the field of ssao rendering. In comparison to hbao, hbao+ doubles the detail level of the ao effect, runs three times faster, and uses the latest directx 11 technologies.
Why would CDPR use an effect which is inferior in quality and uses 3 times more resources?

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
