Think I'm done with this game. Just don't find it fun being swarmed by cops while nothing happens to AI racers. Sick of being surrounded by cops during the stupid event start cut scenes or being wrecked by cops charging at me the second I regain control of my car after the crash cutscene.

Still pissed at losing a shitload of points during a host migration then immediately getting busted WHILE THE GAME IS STILL LOADING.

Any notes on what the patch will fix other than the stutter (which I honestly have not noticed)?

Really hope that saving current points duration host migration is there along with the graphical glitch fixes (those weird purple and green flashes - same thing happened with Frostbite 3 on BF4 PC before I upgraded my GPU drivers).

Damnit...just received the game for PS4 and was looking forward to it. The framerate is horrible, the framerate on Most Wanted is even way better...What a letdown.. :/
IQ also is way too sharp and yes, I have a calibrated TV-set.

30 FPS solid is "horrible"? Sure, we'd all love 60, but 30 isn't bad at all for an arcade-ish racer like this.

Which reminds me, I really need to play more of this soon! Stupid Mario being so good and taking up my time...

No patch notes yet. Just word that it's going to fix the frame pacing bug, and "other stuff".

There is a bug that sometimes causes frames to render out of order, which for some people (me and you) makes the framerate look very unstable, even though it's actually very stable. Weird I know. A patch is coming to fix it and should arrive in the next week.

I have no idea what you mean by "too sharp".

...

As BB noted, Rivals has an odd judder effect. I don't even like playing the game because of it. Waiting for the patch.

game isn't very long either - my son finished the racer side of things pretty quickly. He's going through the different speedlists again now but it does seem to be missing races - too much wham bam thank you officer.

No way this is 30 on PS4. I exactly know what 30 is and Forza Horizon, GRID, BLUR and Split/Second were amazing at 30 fps. This is nowhere near 30

Maybe the game was not properly installed but now the framerate sucks monkerballz, or I'm to sensitive.

@ Bruiser Bear: the IQ seems just to sharp to my eyes. Can't turn it down as I'm already at zero ( Panny GT30 here )

You probably have the bug with frame skipping then. I have been playing this the last days on the PS4 and have had zero issues with framerates, in my eyes it's silky smooth.
With that said, im mostly a PC gamer so i'm more used to 60 frames than 30.

Ok I just got this game on ps4 the other night, it's freaking gorgeous. couple questions though.

The only other N4S I've played was hot pursuit on the ps3, which had the match style pvp. That's gone right, so if I want to actively race/wreck/chase another human player then I have to find them on the map and drive to them right? Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.

Also... What the heck is all drive? Sometimes it pops up like an event or something. Best I can tell it means there's another person close by? That it?

Game is badass though.

Yes you basically have to go find people, but if both of you line up at an event and start it, you will compete against each other.

Alldrive is just the stupid buzzword for having players in your game all the time. You get a points multiplier bonus if you drive around other players.

Look above, someone already responded to you about the judder bug. The game is a rock solid 30.

None of my friends don't have this game on PS4, if anyone fancies bagging the two trophies which you beat a friend racing and bust them drop me a PM.

As for the game itself I'm really enjoying it, I think I have found a decent way to keep the cops in check, I basically so Shockwave and ESF.

Guess I'm missing something...So experiencing the 'bug' is not the same for everybody? Mmm....weird. I've been playing games all my life, never witnessed anything like this.
But the fact that a patch is coming means there more people like us ( BruiserBear ) then...

Yes, apparently not everyone notices it. Like I said before, it's pretty weird.

A patch will arrive most likely in the next week that will fix it.

While I notice this myself I wouldn't say this is something to be proud of. It is more of a curse really.

I notice all these imperfections in moving pictures etc. Sometimes I would like to be just like my girlfriend who just says the TV is fine as long as it is displays a picture.

Got damn this game is awesome. Definitely ranks up there with DR3 as one of the best launch games.

Started the game earlier today on pS4.

There are some great ideas in place but damn if i wish i could see better my car damage level ..

Is there a way to lose heat level ? Sometimes after escaping a police chase i cannot travel more than 8 secs before the pursuit resumes even if no car was nearby.

It just suck that i complete the objectives of my setlist but get busted while i'm trying to get back to my hideout and find myself advancing the story ( career ) but with no Sp to use on upgrades.

If i have understood it correctly you get a multiplier when you have a high heat level, so while you get a shitload of SP with high heat, you have the police on your ass constantly. If you don't want to risk it you need to go to a safehouse and deplete your SP.

High risk, high reward thing they have going on.

On a side note, have anyone gotten platinum? I'm thinking of doing it since none of the trophies seem really hard, any opinions?

looks pretty doable - only one multiplayer trophy which shouldn't be too difficult. Might take a while though as some of them need you to do all the speedlists to get to racer level 60 for instance.
