Also very annoyed that they didn't fix the low fps cloth physics on characters
You're annoyed that they didn't go the extra mile providing you with something you didnt even know you wanted
@@thezx5795 It's noticable and pretty ridiculous for them to overlook. If they're releasing a patch for FPS, it's dumb to not fix the entire game's fps.
@@thezx5795 It's a *one line of code* fix on PC...essentially a bug. Why *wouldn't* we expect them to fix it if they went to the effort of doing a 60fps patch at all?
That plagues the next gen update of all AC games. Origins, Odissey and now Syndicate.
I wish they did an upgrade for Assassin's Creed Unity, it's still to this day the best looking AC game.
They did
@porterbloodline Only through Xbox with the FPS Boost, but it's still stuck at 900p resolution.
The PS5 version of Unity through backward compatibility is still stuck at a locked 30 FPS at 900p, but it can be possible to achieve 60 FPS if the game is unpatched.
@thedoomslayer108_YT oh ok thanks for the correction
good to know@@thedoomslayer108_YT
This is one of my favourite Assassin Creed games, so really pleased to see this patch.
This also makes me hold out hope for a 60fps patch for one of my favourite games of all time, Ghost Recon-Wildlands.
Syndicate is like the downgrade version of Assassins'' Creed Unity in terms of graphic, Ubi understand that PS4 and Xbox One is weaker on CPU sides and made bad gambling on Unity with many crowded NPC , they thought PS4/Xbox One will be using The Cells 2 instead PS4 were using weak Jaguar CPU mobile chips. Gladly Ps5 and Xbox Series using powerful desktop CPU.
ps4 and xbox one hardware caused Unity to flop. Ubisoft expected them to be faster. I played it on PC on release with 0 issues
I wouldn't say powerful. Modern for sure , but They use an architecture from 2019 and have really low L3 cache and have low clock speeds. Either way, way better than jaguar trash.
The cpu is kinda mid now on the ps5.
@@Slambear Agree if you compare to new CPU, but it's far way way better than Mobile CPU on PS4/Xbox One . Night and day.
Ps4 was 100 times stronger compared to the gaybox one. Blame the gaybox fanqueers.
Syndicate is still my no. 1 AC game. Why all the hate?!
Especially the Jack the ripper DLC. Still the most memorable, and enjoyable DLC in the history of Assassins Creeds.
Ezio games were my favorites
@@SAM-ru4vx they killed the creed with the death of desmond tbh.. now the story doesnt match the lore. and cool games need good lore to hit the itch
Parkout is nonexistant, combat is very floaty and looks cartoony, some also dont like the protagonists
The Hitman-style assassination missions were the best part of Syndicate. Very sad that subsequent AC games removed that feature.
They're working their way backwards through the Assassin's Creed and Far Cry games, adding 60fps support. It makes sense they'd do Syndicate after Origins, hopefully that means Unity is next!
the issue Syndicate had on PS5 back when the console came out was very intense flickering that made the game completely unplayable. that got fixed a while ago though (I couldn't even tell you the year). I think a Unity 60fps upgrade is possble, but not especially likely given how rickety it is. I do agree that it's aged better than Syndicate, though Syndicate is still a solid game.
I think it's great that we are even talking about a large company like Ubisoft going back to patch games that are this old to make them run so much more smoothly on current systems. it's a testament to the fact that they must still be selling and also the fact that gaming tech, graphics and mechanics aren't evolving as fast any more, so older games don't look or feel hopelessly out of date even 10 years later. that's nice.
Unity is the last game not to have a remaster or current gen upgrade so I suspect they’ll do that one as well. It already runs at a smooth 60 fps on Series X via fps boost and PS5 if you can run an unpatched disc version (but that comes with other issues there).
The unpatched version of assassin's creed unity runs on 60 fps. Try it out.
They have tested this in a vid before. It also is fps boosted without the disc on XBox as well. Would love a bump in res and an official 60 patch though for sure.
Why are saying this like it’s something new? It’s been tested by DF for years now.
“Interest stuff , here” count like …. 10x at least 😂😂
AC Rogue got a PS4 remaster that included support for the PS4 Pro and it ran at Native 4K . And hasn't there already been rumors of a Black Flag remaster? I personally would play the fuck out of a Unity remaster.
Didn’t Unity get a current gen patch a while back?
@stuartbagley2586 No, definitely not.
As an Xbox Player only this and Black flag ran at 30fps as the others either got an fps boost or Origins got a Series X port at 60fps. So this one was big on my upgrade list and i'm happy to see, it just need Black Flag updated now.
Another thing, Unity runs at 60 fps with FPS boost on Series X, for years. But surely, it's a shame that Sony's hardware can't do that.
Syndicate was one of the titles that was unplayable on the back compat when the ps5 was launch..it was patched like a year ago..
Ubisoft and Insomniac leading the industry in long-term support for their games 😅
New game: Take a shot every time Richard says "interesting stuff" and see how quickly you get drunk. I'm guessing it won't take long.
Dont know about you guys, but I think this is some interesting stuff here.
I love the fanboys in both sides of the comments.
It’s actually entertaining how passionate people are about this 😂
@@rashonkelly3598
Meanwhile, both sides rake in BILLIONS of $$$ 😂😂😂😂
@@facelessbeing6209 by forcing to pay for online
I think MS should do a FPS Boost mode since they got push back from studios about making last gen games 60fps but now PS5Pro has game boost that will push games to 60fps if 30fps but unlocked MS should do the FPS boost and say whatever to studios complaints
Now we should receive patch for dishonored series, that game should be run at 60 fps 😊
Amen to that!
Rogue already got a remaster (60 would be nice on PS5 but it already runs at 4K 60 on XBox with fps boost so that’s probably lower priority), and Black Flag is getting a remake. I have a soft spot for Syndicate so this is something I’ve wanted on console for some time. Unity will be the only one left not to get a remaster, remake, or current gen upgrade. I suspect Unity will be next (and probably the more challenging to upgrade so I see why they would push this out first).
Yah Sony needs to do a better job with how they handle back compat next gen. XBox also benefits from auto hdr and 16x anisotropic filtering so the game just looks better in general on XBox as well. I have noticed in the past that Ubi will optimize per hardware and XBox generally gets a resolution bump and generally XBox is the better place to play Ubisoft games. Not a console war post. I am on all platforms, PC included, and prefer Playstation for consoles, but XBox is just historically better for their games. And especially in the more robust back compat (a bunch of the older remastered AC titles like the Ezio trilogy also all run at 4K 60, AC1 even runs at 4K 60 on XBox) where PS5 runs those games at 1440p-1800p 30. It is what it is. Hoping Sony will prioritize back compat a bit more next gen. Better than the no back compat last gen though and XBox still continues to shine here.
XBox has always had better hardware than Sony (with the 4 year exception of the base XBox One vs PS4), but they’re stuck in the body of someone who wants to be a third party publisher. And it annoys me to no end. Oh what could have been with XBox as the market leader. Lol.
60fps is the reason i play it again. I just can't play 30fps anymore
Syndicate is the second best AC game. Also fix the cloth physics Ubisoft
Rich, you need to retest with "enhance image quality on PS4 games" turned off. It shouldn't impact this game but it does. Game runs excellent with it turned off.
ua-cam.com/video/I_bhu-eLKL4/v-deo.html
Really? That sharpening filter messes with performace???
@DARS_04 It does. It’s only supposed to have an impact on 1080P games but it absolutely impacts performance on this title, despite the 4K target. Most 1080P games will be easy enough for the pro to overcome the performance impact, but not a title that’s pushing 4K.
@@DARS_04It was mentioned in another video by Oliver, that the post process has a cost, and it does impact performance.
This is absolutely true.I am on PS5 PRO and when you enable this setting game runs with fps drops on PRO.When i disable PS4 enhancments on System Menu game runs at locked 60fps on PRO.Digital foundry should have test this before uploading this video.
how can you be sure they didn't disable it?
AC Unity >>>>>>> Syndicate
Series X faster than the PS5 pro. 😂😂😂 Another existencial crisis for the fanboys
Series X is a monster🔥🔥
It has a higher cpu clock and Ms was always better when it came to Back Compat
MS shot itself in the foot with series S. Developers likely have to spend more time it works on series S and then just port ps5 to series X , ensure parity and leave it at that.
The fanboys out there seething that this mediocre 10 year old back compat game runs 2% better on the xbox. How will sony ever recover
So what the Xbox might have a better backwards capability that's the only thing got going for it??
Regardless of the platform, I think there is one thing we can all agree about, and it's that this was interesting stuff :P
First, Richard forced the “bespoke” down our throats. Now he’s trying to make “interesting stuff” happen. Stop repeating this every 2 minutes.
Tried replaying it today 60 fps is nice but hard too go back hasnt aged well at all.
dang who's running things over there
No mention of the cloth physics being locked to 30?
Poor analysis.
Lol whenever he can take a jab at the playstation and give a high five to Microsoft, he will take it. Thats why when i see his mug in particular i usually dont watch
@@brotherdarknessgaming4479 LOL you people are funny

Finally a win for series X owners 😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣

seems the competition is now ps5 pro vs series x....series s got more 120fps games then ps5 ... Sony had to release another console just to compete.
@@sully8317the xbox series x trades blows with the base ps5, and when it beat it, it beat it by tiny margins. That 20% gpu uplift is wasted on a worse api and devs who really don't care about a console that has 10% market share
i played syndicate on ps4 at release , never had a single problem with it and i remember enjoying the game very much same thing with unity!
Why wouldn’t they test a good game?
Lol because they know they wouldn't get the outcome john wanted. They stopped comparing newer games for a reason, john is bias and its obvious
PC in 2010 = 60 fps
Console 2024 = 60 perhaps
And the 2020 consoles are much faster than the 2010 pc. Shows how careless ubisoft is.
Though I don't think a gtx 580 would be running this game at 4k 60
Really interesting is a little bit of a stretch lol
Expectations: Pro console. Reality: Worse framerate than Series S, no disc drive, no stand, glorified Series X with upscale features.
Yea this one last gen game with no pro support and crappy optimization is enough to base your "reality" off. And at least u can add a drive and have 2 tb built in. No series s or digital x can ever use one. Nobody bought a ps5 pro to play assassins creed syndicate
Its ok, xbots. Microsoft will make a faster console in a few years and you won't have to cope this hard anymore
Didn't this run at 1080p 60 on an RX 580 on PC?
I played it at 1080p 60 back in the day on a 970 which is weaker than a 580.
@@RedEverything PC users have been running 1080p 60fps for 15 years at this point.
$700 console losing to a $500 Xbox
500$ Xbox released 4 years ago
Nope, the game runs in back compatibilty mode which simply functions better on Xbox by default. It's not the hardware that's more powerful, it's the back compat software solution that is more efficient.
@@NetshadeX so the Series X runs it better
@@environm3ntalist549 xbox have better backward compabilty then sony thats it
@@zerosam5541 so the Series X runs it better
we need UNITY.
Unity runs 60fps on Series consoles, dont know whats the situtation on PS5
Sunfucate but not Unity.... shame.
Unity was still a joke of a game.
Congrats xbots, an ancient game runs better on BC mode than the pro. That surely means it's the most powerful console, despite getting its ass handed by the base PS5. I hope you validated your purchase now and are happy.
LMAO why are Sony fanboys always so salty? It's sad.
@ We use salt, you use the Cloud. I prefer salt
@@kainairsoft2331 LMAO ok
@@poluticonBecause digital foundry is testing one of the worst ac games ever made that released in 2015 on the ps5pro just to say that Xbox version runs better... When they could just disable the enhanced mode and fix the problems.
They literally went back to a shitty 2015 game just to shit on the pro for a thing that can be fixed with a toggle in the options.
@@kato093 okay come on now, you just sound bitter. They tested the game and it runs how it runs, does it really matter? If it's a crappy 2015 game then why should it matter? Why are you letting something so dumb get you so angry? Relax, take a breath, and enjoy life.
700$ for a console weaker than series X 🤣

Yeah it’s quite sad isn’t it that Xbox never really could get to its full potential after 4-5 years since its release. Strange.
@@NetshadeX you don’t understand what you’re talking about. Both games run at the same res and xbox gives more frames, meaning stronger hardware. Software solution lmao
@@РаЫо you don't understand what NetshadeX said then. PS5 Pro LITERALLY has better hardware, that is a fact, but Xbox's back compat software is more efficient.
@@РаЫо software is the main reason you need a good cpu and gpu to emulate ps3,switch,ps2 on pc
Stunning on PS5 Pro! Hopefully we get a Watch Dogs 2 60fps 4K patch soon.
lol what?
Stunning? LOL.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 $700 and going blow for blow with the Series X.
@@crushlemons can Xbox Series X run Space Marine 2 60fps, Armored Core 6 60fps, and Elden Ring run high 50fps like PS5 Pro. Nope
@@SteddiFLo $700 and the PS5 pro can't even run Elden Ring at 60 fps🤣🤣🤣🤣, the Series X is a $500 console I don't expect it to do that.
Videos like this is just weird to create console wars
We are all in a war one way or another. Now the folks at the front lines in the trenches are suffering the most. But keep chugging along brother!
I wish Sony had the balls to demand a rock solid 60fps mode for ANY game that is meant to run on their system or they don't get to release it.
We would magically get 60fps overnight.
🤣🤣🤣 They can't because it's a CPU issue which the PS5 pro didn't upgrade and not GPU.
That's not how 60 fps works, it's not like game devs are all lazy, the PS5 CPU is not capable of 60 fps in CPU intensive games. I think a lot of gamers would rather have Grand Theft Auto 6 and Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 at 30 fps than not have them at all.
PlayStation parity clauses has held the Xbox back. Its true. Its true. Its damn true.
Lol...NOT.
Black flag remake is all but confirmed and Ollie is out here saying they should have given that a 60fps patch… I swear DF is starting to become out of touch with games as a medium and it’s sad to see
Oh the irony, a remake would be a waste of time. 60fps would be great.
@ whole heartedly agree, but the fact the Oliver acted as if he had no knowledge of the remake is very concerning
Thnk god I didn’t pre order the pro 😂
PS5 can't run Unity at 60. Too weak

Syndicate is heavyest than Unity even on PC. One thing I noticed is that Syndicate textures on PS5 are higher (from PS4 Pro enhancements maybe), while Xbox version have (XBOX ONE?) lower textures
Copium is sure a hell of a drug. Makes you see things.
@@VTorner Search for "Assassins Creed Syndicate PS5 vs XBOX SERIES X" from channel "Frame to Frame", stop the video at 1:10 and 1:30
Look at the shadows on the PS5 consoles @5:52, I feel that was completely ignored/overlooked. It is much better on the PS5 so shadow quality is higher there which maybe the cause for the lower FPS on the PS5 coneoles.
I've never played this game, does it have dynamic time of day because that looks like what it is
@@poluticon Good point, I am not sure as I have not played it either. However, both PS5 and PS5 pro show same exact result while the other show differently. Could be a coincidence or could be actual shadow quality difference.
That's an interesting cope. The game has a day/night cycle and the sun is in another position on Xbox. Well, that should be obvious even without that information. Insane.
@@VTorner right 💯😂😂 digital Foundry has a lot of them in this community
the shadow quality is the same, if the xbox is more hazy and less contrast doesnt mean the shadow quality is worse my man. It could be just different weather in the game
No its not faster. Just like how the pro is not faster than an RTX4070
