Anyone know why nothing happens when I click Save or Load in TLOU? It autosaves, but like everyone else, I like to make some backup saves, especially for Grounded.

Been like two years since I last played it, so I can't remember what's the intended behaviour.

If any game could use a PS4Pro patch, it's EDF. Although they'll probably just take that opportunity to add even more monsters on screen.

And rightly so. It's not EDF without single digit frame rates when you're leveling an entire city block.

Iirc for the ps4 release the devs were asked if there would be a stable frame rate and they basically said "lol no there are more enemies and bigger explosions instead".

So in Watchdogs 2 I had a Swatter swatted by dailing 911 causing his ecig to explode and make him scream by broadcasting screamers to his monitor, and his poo poo talking over mic did him in.

Things that would make me play EDF more:

Get rid of the giant cave levels. I'm not necessarily opposed to the idea of caves themselves, but I don't like the HUGE sprawling caves where you can easily get lost without any point of reference.
Link online and offline mission completions.
Get rid of the limit to use all of your cool weapons on lower difficulties. You can use some kind of scaling mechanic if you'd like, but let me use the weapons I own.

Hire me, Sandbox.

Just tell me I'm exotic.
There's no reason to drop the supersampling for 1080p displays over a drop of less than 10 frames in already intensive scenes. And even so they can't just drop it to 1440p? Like why else would a 1080p user get a pro if not for super sampling? The lower quality shadows are barely noticeable but I sure as hell see jaggies on literally everything.

In what universe does 2 rank below 1 in gameplay, nebulous as that term is? KH1 had Square visibly struggling with basic movement and combat mechanics.

BBS is the best one though, no argument there.

Apparently it's some kind of bug Naughty Dog still haven't been arsed to fix. Hopefully closing the game will do the trick.

The game is also extremely "dark"; can't see crap even with brightness turned all the way up. That's odd.

I played 2 Final Mix on Critical and that is absolutely not what that game is. Also I prefer actual interesting movesets to just the loving Command Deck.

Maybe in the future we'll start seeing major FPS and stuff gains from the Pro but not so far, it seems.

I have a 4K TV and I was planning to replace my launch model PS4 for months anyway so I don't regret choosing a Pro over a Slim, but it's been easy to forget that I even have a special PS4 so far. Especially when FF15 is still bumbling along at an unsteady 30-ish frame rate at 1080p.

I was curious about getting it because I like first person melee combat and four player co-op. But I have a sinking suspicion that this game lacks invert x options so I avoided it.

I've been playing TLG all afternoon and anyone who's having issues getting Trico to do what you want are probably not petting and feeding her enough :mad: I'm actually not too far in the game but have noticed the poor framerate but don't care because the character animation is superb as always.

The framerate is probably not going to be as bad as just cause 3 I'm sure at least it hasn't been up to this point. her tail is currently stuck on a lowered gate

Thank you for contacting Sharp Customer Service.

I understand you would like to know if the HDR firmware for your unit is ready.

I am happy to assist. As of right now HDR is not currently available for this model.

Our engineering team is working diligently to have this released for your television.

We do not have an estimated time of arrival but once this is ready it will be made available to you.

I understand how frustrating this may be for you but I ask you bare with us as we get this resolved for you.

Your incident number is H167167.

I guess my TV supports HDR on a hardware level, but firmware to enable it isn't even on the radar :(

So far to me it's seemed worth it. I've been playing Titanfall 2 and Hitman on it both of which look noticeably better in that there are zero jaggies to be seen anywhere and framerates are better and/or just more than consistent. Sure there are teething issues with a couple games but I think devs will pretty quickly get it sorted out.

If you already have a PS4 it can wait. If you are buying a PS4 now, you are a fool to buy a gimped OG unit. It's pretty obvious that as time goes on the games will be made for the Pro with a sucked up version for the non pro. That's how devs have always done it. You give them better specs and they will develop for those specs and scale back for the other stuff.

I'm waffling on committing to buying it yet since it's still $24 on sale and I have so much crap to play right now, but it is tempting to try and get a goon group together if the servers are already dead. (although I watched a couple of live streams and they all seemed to be playing CO-OP)
