So those artefacts seem to be some sort of 4K upscale. If you compare the 1080p capture and the 4K capture, you can see the 1080p capture doesn't feature them (though is obviously sub-native).

1080p:

4K:

Lol. this is reminds me of the brave old days on PC, 90's. When upgrading to a new GPU was a toss up as to whher games would work well or would they look worse, etc, base don what you got and what game supported.

Consoles, you've got a ways to go to make this upgrading hardware thing smooth.

What a surprise huh. Not even a resolution bump is easy apparently.

Hopefully cerny said it was no time. Must be true.

Yep, this is definitely Cerny's fault. Definitely.

Damn, hopefully more FPS stability too. I guess I should finish the game now.

Older titles getting Pro support warms my mind.

Game doesnt even run at 60fps on pc. why would it run any better on 4k on a console? I said it before and ill keep saying it..4k is just a waste of resources. Ps4 pro should be amazing at better looking titles at 1080p 60fps o even 1440.

I mean, both the Ezio Collection and Darksiders Warmastered support 4K, and I seriously doubt they would have bothered if it wasn't easy to achieve.

Game runs fine on PC.

A lot of these early Pro patches were borderline broken, but were subsequently fixed. Hopefully we'll see the same here

fucking going back to that BOYEEEEEEEE

itching for some of dat creed sucka

Ah that's a bummer. Hopefully Ubi is planning on further support.

People were running it at 60fps on release.

So yea just tried it and it looks very weird. The minmap seems to be native 4k but the game itself looks very pixelated.
When you zoom you can see each individual pixel. Also this seems like it's still running in 900p.
I think it looks worse than before

I also checked the options menu for a 4K toogle but didn't find anything.

jobrro · Nov 23, 2016

Was excited to see thread title, still pretty early in the game after buying it in a recent PSN sale.

Then I read the thread.

This is clearly the Sega Saturn version, which doesn't handle transparencies well.

It doesn't?

That's at ultra settings too, not what the PS4 runs it at.

Equanimity · Nov 23, 2016

You shouldn't have Ubi. Bless you for providing us that crisp 4K hud

Looks like some kind of botched checkerboarding/TAA implementation (just look at the ghosting on the dress to the left), followed by a nearest-neighbour upscale to 4k.

Looks like horse shit.

erotic grandpa · Nov 23, 2016

Ah, what a bummer that it's only some UI. I'd figured Syndicate would never get a Pro patch, but if this is the result, I kinda wish they hadn't bothered.

It's like that one really shitty microsoft paint marker that has absolutely no use for anything whatsoever

icecold1983 · Nov 23, 2016

never stop ubisoft

OverBlood 3 · Nov 23, 2016

So it's 900p upscaled to 4K?

KORNdoggy · Nov 23, 2016

just compared them both in photoshop like-for-like. and they both have the same pixilated IQ when you blow up the 1080p capture to 4k res. with the 4k version having marginal benefits to clarity in the distance. but yeah, this thing is clearly not rendering above 900p.

poor showing ubi. you may as well not have bothered.

d9b · Nov 23, 2016

Maybe they did it for teh lulz

Woah, I did not expect this. Going to buy it now.

Please don't. The game/patch is a freaking mess.

Why would anyone give these guys any money.

liar liar pants on pixelated fire.

Are some of Newt Scamander's fantastic beasts on the loose again?

Looking at the J Mailings sign, the origin of the artifact seems to be there in the original to, it's just blurred out due to the lower pixel count.

eso76 · Nov 23, 2016

Ouch.
So i guess the patch only enables the extra cpu and gpu power to make the game run smoother.
It runs smoother, right ?

I mean, the patch is simply there so the game aknowledges it's running on a PS4Pro and doesn't run in PS4 vanilla mode, which should give it a significant advantage in terms of performances.

This hat is so goddamn stupid. I will never even try this game because of this garbage.

This is a great question, for those who have tested - how is the game running ?

Disagree Guy · Nov 23, 2016

I'll go home and check it myself before viewing these screens and making an opinion.

Please come back and confirm that it looks like a 4K turd (but hopefully with a smoother frame rate)

Next-gen motion blur ?

Don't hit me , it's just a joke

Looks like the same issue as World of Final Fantasy. Bizarre.

Ubisoft is THE WORST.

That looks like an LOD transition being cross-dithered in. Not a checkerboarding error.

ISee · Nov 23, 2016

Still no 'keep on digging gif'? I'm disappointed GAF.

Aztechnology · Nov 23, 2016

4K UI support... what? Why even bother releasing that as a pro update?

Lucreto · Nov 23, 2016

Did they fix the problem of racing around in a carriage and the gaming stopping for a second to load the road ahead?

Fliesen · Nov 23, 2016

i do recall AC being filled with weird kind of transition / dithering effects.

But how do you explain the fact that even Evie, who's standing still and - i presume - at her full LoD at all times, to have these kinds of artifacts.

Similarly, the fountain in the right of the image has them all over the place. I feel like they're connected to transparency effects not scaling up in a clean fashion.
But i really don't know shit, so ...

onQ123 · Nov 23, 2016

It's like they never even got a PS4 Pro dev kit but seen a box that said 4K support in the new SDK & checked that box to see what happens.

NewDust · Nov 23, 2016

Dictator93 said:

Was my initial thought as well, but it doesn't really make sense once you realise the dithering happens on multiple ranges.

KodaRuss · Nov 23, 2016

I think I am going to bite on this now then. It seems some people think Unity is better but this game definitely appeals to me.
