Does this support HDR on PS4?
The game isnt running in HDR and there is no option in the menu anywhere?

That's some hardcore DRM

Maybe you've turned off VPN right after it finished unpacking?

reading just the previous page tells you: there's no .exe

I love Pokken!
Ah i'm playing it right now guys. Only put Steam on offline mode and disabled the VPN
Same boat as you.
Maybe he just has a different opinion.
Not wanting to support a game because of "mixed" reviews (currently at 80 Metacritic), but also hoping this game gets support because they don't want the genre to die, is probably the most perfect GAF post I've ever seen. This post is GAF.
God bless CDkeys. No buyer's remorse. I'm going to bust out the VPN and spook it up tonight.
The graphics are technically better (engine upgrade, IQ upgrade, performance upgrade) but the art direction and set design is far far worse -- depending on context, the latter can be included in "graphics" discussion. See: Killzone 2.

A few people here asked me in other TEW2 threads when I was going to start streaming, so just one time shameless plugging I'll start streaming my first sessions in 10-15 minutes from now.
Won't shameless plug the stream again in this thread, and excited to play as many here are I'm certain.
EDIT: Oh my, and I claimed Post 666 of this thread with this post. XD;

Aw yeah, my Gamestop is selling this at 9 pm.
That's a sign for sure.

So no PS4 Pro enhancements yet?
Wow, OLED fucking shines with this game. Unfortunately I don't think I'm really reaching 60fps even with medium-low settings at 1440p. Oh well, I'll drop it to 1080p if it gets too bad I guess.
Anyway, brother/flatmate conveniently had something to do tonight so here I am, sitting alone in a completely dark apartment, half a meter from my TV, headphones on and at high volume. I'm not gonna sleep tonight.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
US PS4 website says Pro enhanced, we just don't know what they are (if any).

So you have the option to run 1440p on an OLED TV? What's your graphics card?
A colorful brusque delivery isn't for everyone. I don't always agree with everything he says, but his reviews never sound dishonest.

do the boxes still say it or is it assumed? i saw someone post on reddit and no enhanced label similar to prey
Well, sure, I just chose monitor 2 (i.e the tv) from the graphics settings and as long as I play on full screen, any resolution is fine. 1440p I just happened to pick at random. Doesn't look nearly as good as native 4k obviously, but I'll take what I can.
I have a GTX970.

I believe Prey was listed as PS4 Pro enhanced as well on website, but we had to wait for the patch. There's nothing on the box so I would go with it being the same situation as Prey.

Well that's a disappointment then.

Is it 1080p/30 FPS/No HDR on Pro? That'd be pathetic tbh.

Yep, no Pro support as of patch 1.01.
It regens way slower though, right?

Only because you have so much of it, it starts regenerating instantly when you stop running.
Timed it, you get 12 seconds of sprint and it takes 5 seconds to fully recharge, this is on nightmare. Lmao.

That was only a problem if you weren't paying attention to your meter, I honestly only had that happen to me twice over 100 hours.
Original game started you with like 3 seconds of sprint, you start with 12 here. Also running out of stamina (which seems like it'd be impossible) means like nothing since you still move at a decent pace.
They sent out keys yesterday for me. Check your mail again.

It was certainly unrealistic, but it added another layer of resource management tension to the combat and made you carefully consider your movement and positioning. With increased sprint and no matches it sounds like the combat in this game might not have quite as many tactical considerations.

boo
Nothing there.
Check your initial order email, and look for the link that says "Download"
I also said I don't want to support any game that releases without PRO support. This is a major AAA game launching a year after PRO's release without any PRO support. Sorry, but that's ridiculous, and I won't support it.
i see
Lol. Can you also upgrade it? Sounds like a overkill for sure.
Yea, the initial order email (from Aug, when I preordered TEW2) got deleted accidentally. Guess I gotta submit a support ticket.
Shouldn't it be in your account on cdkeys somewhere? Unless you checked out as guest
Ahhh, yeah, that's usually where I find all my keys. CDKeys has never actually emailed me with a key.

Seeing how people are struggling to keep 60fps on more powerful rigs at 1080p on even something like GTX 980 and 1080, I worry for the console versions.
What ever customization Tango does with ID5 engine just tanks performance so much in TEW1, while someone like Machinegun Games used it for Wolfenstien The New Order; the performance was literally almost 3x times as good on average at 60fps at a higher resolution using dynamic 1080p scaling on consoles and it still looked better.

It's not going to be noticeable at six feet from a 55 inch. Not without side by side comparisons anyway. Every time I've ever done native 4K at my regular viewing distance, the differences were totally negligible compared to the performance hit and not being able to reach a stable 60fps.
Good to know. I'm using a GTX 1080, and was mainly concerned with there being a 1440p option at all. Plus, it actually being able to use HDR at that resolution as well.
You also didn't have really large expanses to sprint through in the previous game either aside from a few select areas, so apples to apples maybe? If this isn't even happening in the physical world anyway, not sure why real world rules should always apply. Sebastian started out with a really bad case of smoker's lung anyway in the previous.
That's hard to believe. The first game chugged when having certain graphical options on high/ultra where the actual differences on screen weren't even really noticeable and it was completely smooth with a GTX 780 with them off. Either it's a similar scenario here, or the game really is an unoptimized mess, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense since they have more experience with the engine developing this game than they did the previous.
edit: It very well might just end up being an 8GB ram vs 16GB issue. I ended up buying an extra 8GB when Human Revolution was released, so I'm covered for that at least.
