Why are you in a Console thread?
Because neogaf.
If you value visuals over performance.

Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.
Unless you have a physical copy, then you I believe you can do that. But if you getting it from the PS store, once the patch is released. It would by default comes with the digital download.
Correct me if I am wrong.

For people thinking about downgrading: the load menu shows the version you save is at. I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling without the patch but I assume it doesn't work.
Don't. There is tons of footage with the patch and it looks amazing.

Well that is the logical way to do so isn't it?
Barely any difference?

How do you think you improve the framerate? I'll admit, if the patch was post launch, that'd be scandalous, but pre-launch...that's how things work.

This really has an unlocked Framerate? Are they crazy`?
Uhh, I think it's kind of a bait and switch.

If PC gaming is so awesome then why is that downgrade thread like a bottomless ocean of salty tears.
I don't know how they have the cheek to describe themselves as game 'enthusiasts' when they can be so vitriolic and hateful over grass textures.
enthutiastic
Definition of enthusiastic in English:
adjective
Having or showing intense and eager enjoyment, interest, or approval:
Since when does graphical changes on one system automatically apply to the other as well? There is zero evidence of AO/AF changes on PS4 with the patch. Especially considering these changes are, by NX's analysis, limited to only cutscenes on the XB1, while the apparent problems in the PS4 version occur only during gameplay and busy combat. One of these things is not like the other.
Heh I didn't even see him mention PS4 there, guess I assumed he was talking about Xbox since this is an Xbox thread.

Here is that scene on PS4 post patch btw:
Looks pretty much identical to Xb1 post patch.

He shows gameplay, yes. But he says pretty clearly that the reductions in AO and AF affect only cutscenes, that they're untouched in gameplay.

Ugh, Geralt looks like floating in the air with his bath without AO.

Are you trying to say the only way you can see differences in framerate and details is by sitting up close? Damn, it must suck to have your eyes.
>-Baron-Spamedi-<

I'll purchasing the Xbox One edition of this game. Granted, my "Xbox One" aka the "SuperBone" is a little bigger than your typical Xbone... If that's even possible.
Aw bless. You have a pretty shredder.
Does it handle paper clips and credit cards too?
That's exactly what I was thinking. Hopefully they eventually do this and patch it in, but I doubt it.
Are you saying that the difference is huge and you like to sit up close to TV? Damn, it must suck to be your eyes. Try harder next time. You might pop a vein or two.
Is there a scientific word for obsessing over minor differences and being deficient at accepting other people's observations that don't match theirs?

Nah, if you need to come up with such excuses to justify why you choose your version, go right ahead.

Crazy, ignorant or stupid? CDPR doesn't know that the frame-rate spiking above 30fps and fluctuating up and down causes stuttering? I'd bet they do, so I'd go with stupid.

I haven't got a fucking clue what you're on about but my main TV is 65" and I can see the difference between 900p and 1080p where ever I am in the room.
People noticing differences isn't the same as obsessing over them.
I don't have an Xbone because there isn't anything about it that appeals to me and I have barely enough time to play all my PS4 games anyway. As I was only ever going to get one console I chose the one that gets the best version of most multiplats due to more power. If I did have both consoles then I'm struggling to imagine with this game why I might pick the version with poorer image even if the difference wasn't huge unless the controller was a massive factor.
They just focused on stability elsewhere.

LOL, that is hilarious. Looks like fun as well.

Snowboarding races! Looks like a possible minigame for the next version of GTA.

Ha ha ha. Poor baby.
I'm not salty at all.
When you aren't turning up in console threads bragging about your PC to people who aren't really interested you seem to turn up in other threads spreading your sunny brand of 'enthusiasm'.
I actually enjoyed reading the downgrade thread. I haven't laughed at internet angst and rage so much in quite a while.
When my copy of the Witcher turns up tomorrow I'm sure I'll be enjoying the hell out of it like the vast majority of Xbox One and PS4 owners here.
No doubt you will be wailing and gnashing about downgrades and grass textures for months to come.
I know which type of enthusiast I would rather be.

If you don't have an XB1, why is it so important for you to note the differences in each version, and then spend time on a forum trying to convince others of the value of what you see. Others have stated that the differences are negligible and easily noticeable, so at this point your line of argumentation against there's is just more circuitous argumentation, a circle that has already been done here just in this thread over and over again.
Some people can't be convinced that it's not that important, that it doesn't detract from gameplay, that the disparity is not there. Because, narrative?
Some people keep the echo chamber going in hopes of convincing Others to join their Cause. This is a psychological condition. But the echo chamber won't catch to other areas if the truth shows the facts to be different.

7 frames vs. a minor visual difference.
The patch also likely lends other stability to the game, too.
I can barely see a difference too.
Lmao, some people splitting hairs over this? Relax and just smash the game on your platform of choice.

Deleted the patch to check it out for myself. Here are some more pre/post-patch comparison pics on PS4.
Pre patch:
Post patch:
Cutscene performance was pretty awful pre patch, gameplay seemed fine for the tutorial area.
I'd say it's not worth it to keep it unpatched.

Why is there a difference in gamma/brightness between the two middle shots?
And thanks for uploading these, btw.
Also, does anyone know if NXG will be doing a PS4 analysis too?
You are wrong, you can cancel the patch update no matter what version you have.
So patch only effects cut scenes, during gameplay AF and everything is fine only with better performance?
If so I will keep it patched on my PS4.

That's sort of the purpose of these threads.
Also noticed the trees shadows are much lighter they are now grey instead of black.
I'm pretty sure that DF's framerate counter won't be the same.

I don't really need to see the differences but knowing what they are gives me important information.
if there's no difference then it tells me the dev hasn't pushed the PS4 at all and raises alarm bells about the quality of the port.
Comparisons also highlighted the recent AF problems in Dying Light which ultimately led to the patch which fixed them.
I don't really care what version you or anyone else choose's to buy.
I don't think people should be suggesting that only people who 'sit too close to their TV' would care about resolution differences and I don't think that people should say things are practically identical when they aren't.
