Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Some of you may remember that my Golds broke shortly after a year of having them. The plastic snapped like a lot of others have had. I never bought a new headset specifically for my PS4. I hadn't been playing my PS4 as much, but when I did I used my Logitech headset from my PC. It has 7.1 surround sound, but when used on the PS4 it is forced into stereo and is extremely quiet even when turned all the way up.

Out of the blue the other day I found out a way to work around this and have my headset actually perform up the its potential. I simply downloaded the remote play app on my PC, used it on my PC with my headset on my PC, but instead of playing through the stream on the app I either just still play off of my TV or use the input on the monitor the PS4 is running through. This avoids input lag while allowing my headset to be 7.1 and at its normal volume levels.

Yup, excellent service and not regrets at all from cutting the cord after a few months.

If you use an external SSD, will it actually load/run faster compared to being installed inside the console or no? Thanks.

Also, is it possible to use someone else's saved data file on my PlayStation 4? Reason im asking this is because after playing REVII, I have the urge to play RE4 but don't want to start on normal difficulty as I prefer to go straight to professional and wanted to know if using someone else's saved data file for the game would be possible? Thanks.

Nope. Only your data will work. You can't just download a save and expect it to work. Thank you trophies and achievements.

I've had Vue for about 6 months now, no issues... Patiently waiting for them to add MLB Network.

Thanks. I didn't think so but was hoping so I could start RE4 on professional difficulty instead of normal.

Boost mode enabled PS4 Pro!! WWE 2K17 is noticeably smoother after installing the beta as is GTA 5. What an awesome thing for Sony to add.

Pro owners are in for a treat!

So you think WWE 2K17 is running smoother with boost enabled? I tried it for a few hours tonight and didn't notice any difference. Was hoping to see some entrances and multi-man matches smoother.

Let me know what you're seeing.

Glad to see custom wallpapers coming, got a ton I want to use for my wallpaper!

Yeah I got a 2tb hard drive a few months ago and I am hoping it last me forever but I may need even a little bit more space in a few years and if I could have done external support back then I may have gotten a 3tb hard drive instead.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Man if this is true, the PS4 boost from the 4.50 beta is a game changer........

Users on NeoGaf have been testing a wide range of games, and have been posting their impressions along with videos and GIF’s for some of the games.

Note: Boost mode will do nothing extra for games with pro patches which is why those games are not on this list. It could however help for unpatched games that had a pro patch.

Here's A List Of PS4 Games That Have Been Tested Using Boost Mode; What Has Changed? - ThisGenGaming

http://thisgengaming.com/2017/02/04/heres-a-list-of-ps4-games-that-have-been-tested-using-boost-mode-what-has-changed/

Users on NeoGaf have been testing a wide range of games, and have been posting their impressions along with videos and GIF’s for some of the games. Of the games that have been tested so far here’s the reactions with some also including video/GIF comparisons. A lot of these are great choices to play if you have a gaming projector, the visuals on the FPS are really enhanced. Note: Boost mode will do nothing extra for games with pro patches which is why those games are not on this list. It could however help for unpatched games that had a pro patch. Alien Isolation Minor framerate drops are now gone with boost mode. Source Arcania Improved framerate. Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag No visible improvements with boost mode. Assassin’s Creed: Unity This has been called one of the best upgrades with boost mode by far. AC: Unity was plagued with performance issues and still had some after patches. Most notably was that the game ran pretty bad when in crowded areas, but with boost mode, it runs extremely smooth. Here’s a video to show how great it’s running with boost mode activated. Assetto Corsa Running much smoother with boost mode. Attack on Titan Improved framerate. Batman: Arkham Knight Screen tearing issues are pretty much non existent when boost mode is on. Another great difference out of all the games with boost mode on. Batman: The Telltale Series Runs much smoother. Original mode can drop to as low as 15FPS. Battlefield 4 Battlefield 4’s online was plagued with framerate drops online and dropped to as low as 35 FPS. It’s now running at a very stable 60FPS and looks great! Maybe the best of them all? Bloodborne Bloodborne also runs smoother with boost mode, but isn’t perfect and still has some framerate issues even with boost mode on. Here’s a GIF comparison. Bioshock Infinite Remastered Solid locked 60FPS with boost mode. Borderlands : The Handsome Collection Still suffers from slowdowns, but not as much with boost mode. Broforce “Broforce runs better, but it’s still not smooth. Definitely a noticeable improvement.” Source Call Of Duty: Ghosts Multiplayer is pretty much locked to 60FPS when on boost mode, without boost mode it wasn’t for some maps. Campaign is also locked to 60FPS. Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare The original PS4 had some slight framerate drops to as low as 53FPS, when boost mode is on like Ghosts it’s pretty much locked to 60FPS. Multiplayer is very smooth. Contrast Running at a locked 60FPS, would run “close to 60FPS” originally. Costume Quest 2 Running at a locked 60FPS, would run “close to 60FPS” originally. Darksiders II Now locked to 30FPS and screen tearing issues on the original PS4 are now gone when in boost mode. Dark Souls III Improved framerate, but still suffering from framepacing issues. Daylight Daylight had terrible framerate issues, and it looks like boost mode has improved the framerate for this title. Dead Island Remastered Pretty much nothing has changed with boost mode on. Dead Nation Running at a locked 60FPS, would run “close to 60FPS” originally. Dead Rising Much improved and smoother framerate. Load times are also slightly faster. Dead Rising 2 Runs smoother and at a solid 60FPS. Dead Rising 2: Off The Record Runs at a solid 60FPS, outside framerate drops are gone and still runs at 60FPS. Destiny Improved load times. Orbit to the Tower Boost- 56.65 (tested twice) No boost- 1:10.12 sec To orbit from tower Boost- 10.53 No boost- 16 sec Orbit to iron temple Boost- 50.77 No boost- 1:11.44 Iron temple to orbit Boost- 9.72 No boost- 10.98 Orbit to Mars Boost- 39.02 No boost- 38.22 Mars to Orbit Boost- 9.81 No boost- 10.56 Orbit to WoM Boost- 37.82 No boost- 39.61 Source for times. Dishonored: Definitive Edition The original Dishonored remaster was notable for having framerate issues, but now runs at a locked 30FPS even in areas were it suffered the most (sewers) DOOM (2016) There were some slight framerate dips on the original PS4, but it now runs at a smooth 60FPS even when there’s many enemies on screen which usually caused the dips. Dragon Age: Inquisition Very minor framerate improvements Driveclub Motion blur slightly improved in some cases. Dying Light Mixed response to Dying Light when running on boost mode. There’s some framerate improvements but it seems to add stuttering too. Earth Defence Force 4.1: The Shadow of New Despair Speeds up load times and lessens screen tearing issues. Everybodys Gone To The Rapture Boost mode makes the game smoother, but not perfect. Close to a 30FPS lock. The Evil Within The Evil Within might be the most improved game with boost mode activated. It had many framerate issues on the original PS4 and was almost like playing the game in slow motion. Runs much smoother with boost mode. Fallout 4 Must be noted that it will be getting a pro patch soon so it won’t matter but we will still share the impression prior to the patch. Runs smoother, load times slightly improved. Far Cry: Primal Runs smoother, less framerate drops. Final Fantasy XIV Improved framerate in populated areas. Grand Theft Auto V Improved framerate when driving in the city. Grow Home No noticeable improvements, lots of stuttering and is running worse with boost mode on. Homefront: Revolution Had many issues with the framerate which was patched, but still wasn’t completely fixed. Running much smoother with boost mode. Just Cause 3 Just Cause 3 had many framerate issues that got worse even after patches, and would go down to as low as 20FPS. Boost mode has now made the framerate a stable 30FPS. Killzone: Shadow Fall Framerate improvements, running at a smoother 60FPS. Legend Of Kay Anniversary Locked to 60FPS, originally ran only close to 60FPS. Lichdom Battlemage Notable for having bad performance issues, but with boost mode it’s running at 50-60FPS rather than drops to 30FPS. Much smoother overall. Lords Of The Fallen Almost locked to 30FPS with screen tearing issues almost gone. Mad Max Minor framerate improvements Mighty No 9 Had lots of slowdowns and dips originally, boost mode however makes it completely smooth experience. Yes, boost mode made Might No 9 better somehow. Oddworld New And Tasty Locked to 30FPS. Project Cars Running much better. There’s still issues with the framerate when racing with wet tracks with a lot on the screen. Overall it’s noticeably improved compared to the non boosted version. Source Psychonauts Runs as bad as it did originally even with boost mode. PT Demo Yep, even demo’s are getting boost as many have reported that the demo is running smoother. Noting camera movement is especially smoother. Pure Pool Locked to 60FPS. Stuttering when zooming in and out and round the table is now gone with boost mode. Rainbow Six Siege After more testing. There is a hard 60FPS cap in Versus mode. There is no cap in Terrorist Hunt. It ranges from 70FPS to 100FPS in game, even during fierce firefight Source Resident Evil 5 Minor framerate drops that happen on the original PS4 are now gone when in boost mode. Resident Evil Revelations 2 Runs at 60FPS even during parts were the game suffered bad framerate drops on the original PS4. Some crashing issues have been reported with boost mode on. Rocket League Would dip on some stages, now running at a smooth, locked 60 FPS. Shadow Complex Still suffering from the same issues, no changes even with boost mode. Shantae: Half-Genie Hero Had noticeable framerate dips originally, boost mode keeps it at a solid 60 FPS. Sleeping Dogs Driving still causes some framerate issues, and not as smooth as when on foot which has improved and is much smoother. SOMA Multiple people have confirmed that the game crashes when boost mode has been turned on. Others report that it does work but has horrible performance with it on. Star Wars Battlefront Framerate has improved, and performing much smoother with boost mode on. Street Fighter V Load times improved. Tested by a user on NeoGaf. Launching the game to SFV Logo screen: Normal: 42.3 s Boost: 35.6 s Main Menu to Stage Select (for Versus): Normal: 20.2 s Boost: 14.4 s Character Select to Match in Hillside Plaza (Ryu and Ken selected): Normal: 20.7 s Boost: 17.3 s Tales From The Borderlands Runs smoother with boost mode. Tomb Raider (2014 remaster) Solid 60FPS lock. Improved from the non boosted version. Table Top Racing Runs at a locked 60FPS, originally used to dip in certain places. The Talos Principal Running at a much smoother 55-60FPS, much improved over the framerate on the original PS4 which dropped to 35FPS. Trivial Pursuit Live Still suffering from stuttering, hardly improved. Tropico 5 Much smoother when you have a built up island, which caused many issues without boost mode on. Still has dipping under 30FPS issues but is improved. Until Dawn Runs smoother, framerate on the original PS4 version would dip down to 20FPS but now is at least 30-40FPS due to unlocked framerate. Still suffering from stuttering issues. The Witcher 3 Faster load times, and much smoother in areas which caused problems like swamps. Yakuza 0 Framerate drops and screen tearing issues are gone when playing the game in boost mode.
