Digital Foundry's John Linneman: Talked to multiple developers who have confirmed it's difficult to scale games to Xbox/PS4 base hardware.

Is the PS4 holding back PS5 development? Could this be why we haven’t had a PS5 deep dive? Is the PS5 in trouble?

No, it’s not, and neither is the XB1. If a developer is choosing to support current gen consoles as well as next gen then they’re going to have to plan accordingly. It’s a good thing that neither Sony or Microsoft are forcing devs to make their games cross generation.

Lock it up.

Digital Foundry: Developers Having Difficult Time Scaling games back to PS4/Xbox One specs

According to Digital Foundry's John Linneman he has talked to multiple developers who have said no one wants to work on the under powered Jaguar CPU's any longer. Says it's a painful process. That was followed up by a post from Liza Shulyayeva who is a programmer and formally worked ad DICE...

While Xbox has committed to the idea that its first-party games will be playable across generations, Sony Interactive Entertainment boss Jim Ryan has specifically said that he's uninterested in making PS5 games run on PS4 hardware.

Playstation isn't dragging the PS4 into the next-gen. They believe in generations

 

[Exede]

Your thread title has ahm nothing to do with the tweet in the OP at all. They sure wanna develop on the new HW. And seems like nobody is forcing them to make the new games crossgen

 

[NoMoChokeSJ]

Lol. This is pretty funny.

 

[TGO]

You can't SonyToo™ this, Sorry

 

[onQ123]

Good thing Sony believe in generations & isn't trying to scale to PS4 from PS5

 

[Thicc Enigma]

Thread backfire. OP, try harder next time.

I was wondering what would break first... your spirit... or your body!

i knew exactly who'd start a thread like this and my guess was spot on.

The thread title makes as much sense as the one that says that devs are having trouble scaling from the Series X to the XB1, since the tweet talks about both XB1 and PS4.

I’m having a good old sensible chuckle at the usual suspects that can’t see the point of this thread. One of them even calls himself Mr PlayStation lol.

The point of this thread was to show that the other thread was deliberately misleading to make one console look bad when the actual news that the tweet talked about was that BOTH consoles are causing problems.

OR you could let the mods do their job and not worry about it.

What an embarrassing console war thread. Talk to Mod of War if you can't sleep with a thread title instead of posting garbo thread.

They'll be cross-generation games on both. Why be deliberately deceptive?

That's just because Sony isn't going to dictate to third parties that they don't create a version for PS4. But they've made it clear what their first-party studios are doing which is what they actually have control over.

 

[SlimySnake]

lmao at the thread title. well done OP.

 

[anothertech]

HAHAHAHAA

Remind me which company has been pushing games across all it's platforms for the foreseeable future???

Dayum OP

 

[Bankai]

This thread is pathetic. You don't understand how it would be more difficult for developers to HAVING TO scale their game from Xbox One tot Series X, instead of developing a game for 1 console iteration (PS5)? It's about MS demanding there's no nextgen-only games and Sony doing the the way it's always been done: you want next-gen gaming? Buy the new box.

ps. f*ck these reactionary threads, it makes this forum seem juvenile like the Myspace page of a 13 year old.

 

[GHG]

Pathetic shit again.

Learn to fucking debunk news/stories/threads instead of childish tit for tat bullshit.

I'm not singling anyone out but the maturity levels of some of you Xbox guys is through the floor.

Be better.

 

[skneogaf]

This is how it could easily be done have been as the other thread is clearly nonsense as it only says xbox when it absolutely clearly says both ps4 and xbox one.

Talk about having an agenda!

No..its pathetic fan boy (from whatever side) reaction posts like this that make the forum seem juvenile.

That's why one company is worth a Trillion and another is not. MM could easily scale on ps4 hell SM ps4 looked great and your gonna cut your own dick and lose out on millions and millions? that is all...

 

[Gavon West]

Wow. Lol. Just, wow!

 

[mrBarrelNut]

Poor PS5. Maybe they don't have tooling in order to help in scaling?

 

[TLZ]

No, it’s not, and neither is the XB1.

You know better than devs?

Don't know what is the problem:
you target the next gen only, no need to worry about the previous one;
you target both gen, you made the game for the weaker gen, then upscale and improve framerate and effects.

Really, where is the problem?
