Star Wars: Squadrons (EA) [XO, PS4, PC, VR]
- Thread starter Karamazov
- Start date
Btw, all current consoles use dynamic reconstruction it seems.
OneX - max 4K
4Pro - max 1800p
OneS - max 1080p (rare instances of 720p)
PS4 - 1080p (most of the time)
Don't know about the enhanced lighting compared to PC settings.
Yet that's what XSX supports in this game.
Maybe due to VRR they felt it was worth supporting in XSX|S.
I personally can't think of any other reason PS5 never got it. Although wouldn't be surprised if it got it in a future patch.
Yea, but the difference is the PS5 doesn't support VRR yet.
If the game is running at 116fps it would then it would be a bad experience on a 120 display. Maybe really bad micro stutter?
Not saying it makes perfect sence, but only one that makes any to me so far.

Nor 8K. If the retail box PS5 states supports 8K and VRR (which DF says it does) and those features not there in a launch day patch, Sony will be an easy target for UK regulators.
VRR might be supported more transparently (without a UI option to select it) but we know 8K was missing on DF's unit. But, it could be pre-release firmware.
Maybe it's a matter of the cable...
And I'll show myself out, even though that was an obvious joke.

I’m sure the yellow-red-white composite cable can do 8K!
Does the Ps4 BC support 120hz output? (Outside PsVR, in which native 120fps mode would be awesome.)
Currently it does sound that they didn't really touch the Ps4 version to change things for ps5.
I wonder if Sony has simple test on Ps4 code to find out what machine is running it or is it just few rounds of π on CPU and select from there..
So the patch is out or at least a patch is out. It doesn't seem to be using the Gen9Aware XDK. The game still shows as XboxOne/XDK in File Info, so on Series X|S it's running through Backwards Compatibility.

This is a lastgen (PS4/XBO) game and EA are leveraging Xbox One's 120hz support, for which PS4 never supported and which there isn't an API for.
Yeah, I wonder how they're doing some things given they're not using Gen9Aware on Xbox or newer PS5 apis. Maybe they have a semi-dynamic system that does a bit of a benchmark up front to determine exactly what to enable or disable? Clever developers will find a way, given the time. If it was truly dynamic then patches wouldn't be needed now.
I did wonder if it was a typo/mistake.
Is 4pro limited to max 60fps otherwise I can't see why they wouldn't be able to do 120 if their able to work out it's running on PS5 for lighting.
