That's a nice difference with the normal PS4 version.
But why do lower resolution versions always have lesser quality sound in these vids?

Doesnt YouTube always render less quality sound with deceased resolution?!

mad-dog3084d ago

No what i mean is, the quality of the sound decreases when he switches to the PS4 version.
He has that in more comparison vids. That could influences our judgement a bit i think.

S2Killinit3084d ago

this is the Pro 1080 vs. Pro 4K I believe.

IamTylerDurden13085d ago

BF1 and Tomb Raider are jaw dropping on Pro.

seanpitt233085d ago

Yes it looks gorgeous on the pro https://youtube.com/watch?v...
but more importantly the fps is spot on.
We should of had the power from the pro at the very start of this generation.

Barricade3085d ago

No we shouldn't have had this power 3 years ago. The point about consoles is accessibility, and pricing is one of the most important factors to get consoles moving. They waited until they could price this thing competitively before making it a reality.

badz1493084d ago

This kind of power wasn't going to only cost $399 3 years ago

bouzebbal3084d ago

You wouldn't have appreciated it this way.
Mid-gen power up is actually cool, especially when it's done right.

feedthereaper3084d ago

Its geared for 4K, but three years ago 4K was still in late development and the only TV that offered it came with a price tag well over £1,000+. To say that Sony should have had an overly powered console to make use of a tech that had barely entered any homes at all, is ridiculous, and even more so considering they have sold PS4 for 3 years successfully and now getting people to upgrade to Pro for more $$$'s in the bank. They couldn't have made those profits if they brought out the Pro in the beginning and it had a 10 year shelf life, which is what they are trying to avoid these days.

IamTylerDurden13084d ago

The xbone is STILL unable to render native 1080p in many games. You can make the argument that it is too weak at this point in the generation, but 3 yrs ago the PS4 was more than sufficient. Games like Infamous, Uncharted, Driveclub, and The Order were technical/visual showcases for the PS4. Ppl were surprised when Sony unveiled the official PS4 specs. Ppl were impressed with 8gb of GDDR5. PS4 was more than sufficient at the beginning of the gen.

agreed. I'm very impressed with my Pro right now.

Bolts3085d ago

BF1 on the Pro is definitive console experience. Not as good as the PC, but finally console gamers no longer have suffer bad textures and sub 1080p resolution. Finally the dream is realized. Any console gamers not playing this on the Pro is missing out.

game4funz3084d ago

No offense but that sounds like a silly dream.

CyrusLemont3084d ago

Man I've just been playing both those games over the weekend, and I've got to say having a Hisense 65M7000 which supports HDR 4K is absolutely mind blowing. Sure they might be checkerboard rendering from 1800p to 2160p, but the difference is negligible compared with 1080p against 2160p sitting at a normal distance (roughly 3 metres). It's such a significant jump, I feel like I'm gaming on a high end PC.

Sure by the book it's not native rendering, but it's so damn impressive that I would say 4K gaming is definitely here. I honestly can't wait for future support, and especially Mass Effect.

Babadook73084d ago

Cool. This is one I havent tried. Titanfall 2 is pretty spectacular also.

thegamefox933084d ago

It also looks great on the ps4

64 player conquest finally playable on consoles

Phill-Spencer3085d ago

Wasn't it already on bf4 on ps4?

objdadon3085d ago

The frames were jacked up

WellyUK3084d ago

ye but the pro apparently does nothing to MP games unless they flat out lied.

MasterCornholio3084d ago (Edited 3084d ago )

The framerate is more stable in the Pro version. What isn't allowed is 30FPS multiplayer on the base model and 60FPS multiplayer on the Pro version.

But you already knew that.

P.S

Also graphical effects can be upgraded in the Pro version.

WellyUK3084d ago

But they specifically said MP games would have no difference therefore they lied if the game is smoother then there is clearly a difference. Therefore if the MP drops frames etc on the ps4 it should do that on the pro as they said on the day it was announced that MP games would not run better yet you are saying they are, also that is giving PS pro players an advantage which is what they said wouldn't happen.

Although if what your saying is correct then I will look into buying one as MP running better was the only reason I would want to buy one.

Eidolon3085d ago (Edited 3085d ago )

I wonder if 1080p was improved much. I mean it looks incredible on the orignal PS4, but I want to know if they did any down sampling and improved effects for 1080p.

Sevir3085d ago

They do, it's an unflinching 60fps with pristine edges and increased shadow maps, and enhanced particle effects as well as a few more dynamic additions to surface detail. It's Incredible!

Eidolon3085d ago

dang, I can't wait to see it myself, have to wait a while :(.

Aenea3084d ago

And in 1080p, not dynamic from 600-900p!

Errorist763084d ago

Watch the Digital Foundry video on that. It's quite substantial.

The_KELRaTH3084d ago

Watched it and was surprised by how much better the PC is still, was expecting it to be much closer.

InTheZoneAC3085d ago

in the first video there were people standing still with a flamethrower and absolutely EVERYONE was ignoring the enemy trying to cook them. WTH kind of AI was that?

Do you get enhancements in the MP portion or just the SP?

Aenea3084d ago

It's funny that people still don't know the answer to your last question.

Yes, there are enhancements in the MP portion! 1080p, more effects, no dynamic resolution and it keeps up 60fps way better (still frame drops at times)... the result is that I can see enemies way earlier now from afar! It's awesome!

MasterCornholio3084d ago

It's the AI of a roasted weenie.

DICE Needs To Recapture The Magic Of Battlefield 1 In The Next Game

For DICE to succeed with its next game, it has to return to the roots of the franchise. Atmospheric map design, clear and defined class-based gameplay, attention to detail, and total chaos. Battlefield 1 feels like every rock, every glint on your sniper rifle, every falling brick from a collapsing church, has been painstakingly considered. So much care went into the design of the game, from its soundtrack to its costume department. To stand a chance alongside the behemoths of Treyarch and Infinity Ward, DICE needs to recapture what made their old games so brilliant, otherwise it’s all over.

"DICE Needs To Recapture The Magic Of Battlefield 3 In The Next Game"

/Fixed

...on a serious note, DICE needs to remove the Battlefield name.

isarai893d ago

Eh, bfbc2 was the peak for me, only ad dogfighting and the accommodations that come with it. Every BF after that was such an unsatisfying progression system for weapons and gear for the classes, 90% of the guns feel exactly the same when you unlock them, just felt boring in comparison. Not to mention the gimped destruction as the series progressed

Sciurus_vulgaris893d ago

I found Battlefield 1 to be overrated. The gameplay was simpler and less strategic than its predecessors. Battlefield 1 did have a woo-factor, but the gameplay got repetitive faster than Battlefield 4 in my opinion.

porkChop893d ago

If DICE needs to return to the roots of the franchise then why would they look at Battlefield 1? BF1 is overly simplified and streamlined. What DICE should focus on is Battlefield 3 and Bad Company 2. Those two games were the pinnacle of the franchise.

TheEnigma313893d ago

BC2 was the best. they need to get back to that.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot1124d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw2501123d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface1122d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop1123d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno1123d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel1124d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps1123d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge1028881123d ago (Edited 1123d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k331123d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge1028881123d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH1123d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

Grabbed Panzer Dragoon, the Darkness, Conker Reloaded, Burnout Revenge, Time Splitters 2, Fight Night Champions, and Stuntman Ignition.

Essentially some of the classics that I can't get on PC, now that I have a Series S.
