Days Gone on PS5 - Super Smooth at 60FPS - But Can It Survive The Horde?

  • One of two PlayStation 5 Sony first party exclusives to benefit from a 60fps upgrade for PlayStation 5, Days Gone benefits tremendously from the upgrade, with the vast majority of standard gameplay holding steady at 60fps - but can it survive the 300-strong onslaught of the Horde in challenge mode? NOTE: An error in this piece - while Days Gone, The Last Guardian and God of War are a part of the PlayStation Collection, Ghost of Tsushima is not.

      @@benchillwell7498 This isn't one of those times, the first impression for the LAUNCH was actually great, it ran fine & had the issues it was criticized for largely fixed.
      In essence this game was sabotaged by games journalists who gave it poor scores for performance on pre release review copies that the public never played.
      Its one of the cases that game devs have for deliberately putting embargoes on reviews until after launch, in this situation devs are right to treat the journalists as a toxic entity because, they are.
      I did the smart thing by ignoring journalists and got the game at launch & i never had any of the issues they marked the game down for.
      Check out Laymen Gaming's review of DaysGone, they flat out agreed with everything i just said so this is a situation separate from first impressions, this is sabotage by journalism before launch & they are partly responsible for why games like Cyberpunk did shady stuff like refused to allow any reviews pre launch.

      This is just a guess, but there might be some first party Sony titles that won't work at 60fps (out of the box). This would mainly be titles released before the PS Pro. The reason is, in some games, the physics completely break when doubling the framerate.

      It will be exactly as how they released Spiderman Remastered with the Ultimate Edition. So you will have to pay a lot to get 60fps in HZD. They will add some RT and stuff too but who cares, it looks stunning anyway!

While Digital versions tenda to leave a small amount out. Plus if you get to part of the game were some Data/textures don't wish to load properly (or at all) the Disk version can retrieve it from itself, on the fly. While the Digital vertion either choose to crash or run at a snail pace to try to refresh the file.
      Also, the newer updates for Days Gone removed a lot of the extra assets, buffing zones, filler data and back up textures to help speed up load times. But in doing so they caused both the Disk/Digital to be unable to retrieve enough information to run at 60fps.

      So facts, i recall reception being lukewarm, when I played it, I couldn't believe it. I was convinced everyone has lost their minds. The production values for one thing, are basically as good as Red Dead, if not better on console due to PS4 Pro having that awful anti-aliasing technique applied that blurs the heck out of of it. And the way the characters behave in this game, feels real good and not arcade-y at all as one might imagine in a zombie game if they never played this.

      What points made in that review do you actually disagree with though? I own the game based on the recommendations of people like yourself and the first 12 hours of that game is some of the least fun I've had playing a game in a long time (5/10 territory). The gameplay and story slowly start to pick up after that point. The gameplay during that timeframe is so basic that it makes Mafia 3 look like MGS5, and the recoil mechanic for the low-damage pistols (it takes around a second for the reticle to expand and contract after every shot) is a poorly implemented, lazy attempt at nerfing the player early on to try compensate for small groups of freakers being so easy to cheese. I dragged the first horde away from their spawn and it nearly broke the game (caused 3 different really bad glitches like freakers being deleted or launched into the air when I walked into them). Having standards is not "ridiculous". 6.5 is a fair score.

But its a minor gripe. The characters are memorable. They all feel real and authentic. Its a massive task to make an authentic character out of skizzo for example. Big props for all the great work on the many faces and stories. Great game, i recommend it to anyone old enough for raw violence.

    Why isn't checkerboard 4k a standard for "performance" mode in next gen games? It is proved to look very close to native 4K anyway. Spider-man miles morales runs at native 4k with ray tracing at 30fps. So why couldn't it have a 4k checkerboard option for its performance mode? Would checkerboarding break up the ray tracing and make it look off or something?

    All I know is going from base ps4 slim to a ps5, (just got it a couple days ago), it’s transformative for me. I’ve always wanted to finish this game, but it was a chore doing it on slim ps4. Now I can finish is with no real problems!

    Just have a single programmer from each studio tasked with unlocking all framerates or putting them at 60fps or whatever. I am loving the ability to go back and play games again at 60fps!

    The more games they can get to 60 the better! I['d love to play several PS4 exclusives if they could only run at 60.

    Great game, i gave this another chance when i got my ps5 and im glad i did. The dialogue is not always the best and the story sometimes suffer from the typical open world syndrome where there can be a bit too many filler missions and weird changes in the pacing but overall it's a hugely enjoyable game with likeable characters and a decent story. One of the best things too is how immersive and dynamic the world is, there's always different threats to change things up and driving around at night can be really scary when accidently bumping into a horde etc.

    I ended up getting the platinum trophy for this game on ps4. I picked it up long after all the patches had improved it, and I loved every second of it. I envy anyone who's going to experience it for the first time with these framerates. It is a really underrated title.

      I think it was actually well received by gamers. It sold pretty well. It seems to me that it's mostly journalists who crapped on this game.
