Sony would prefer you called it 'Dynamic 60fps'

Call it what you want, it was by far the most playable mode. If you're actually looking to play that game, and not just look at it, it was by far the best option on any of the consoles. Lag was unbearable otherwise, making firefights artificially far more difficult than intended.

I know you can't directly compare the two for a number of reasons, but this does makes Arkane look pretty lazy.

To be fair though prey has a lot more stuff you can do thats taxing on performance, things like the gloo gun having persistent effects such as being used for platforming - so you can make a far more complex environment beyond whats background scenery

Now this is proper support. Well done, Deck 13.

I'm not saying Prey should have the same performance options as The Surge, I'm calling them out for not bothering to include any Pro enhancements at all. This is compounded by advertising the game as Pro-enhanced on the box.

He was talking about pro patch, which Prey lacks in its entirety.

Anyways while Prey has a lot more stuff that you mention about in your post that The Surge lacks, Prey is also is using dated rendering features compared to The Surge. Both games have trade offs but only one game utilises the PS Pro and does something with it.

Any mention on if the game does Supersampling for 1080p TV's in Quality mode ?

I know it's not the point you were making, but I wonder if anyone would choose supersampling over a 60 fps mode.

Ah I see, no support at all is bad! I assumed all PS4 games got upscaled nicely with a Pro.

I watched Performance Mode before watching Quality mode. Was there some frame pacing issue for just a wee bit while the player made his way down the stairs in Quality video 1, or did my eyes just adjust to fast to that silky smooth 60 lol.

Yeah was just curious, with a lot of games not including it lately and this seems to be a pretty great use of the Pro.

QL seemed pretty great, these videos look pretty good... I kind of dug Lords...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I wouldn't personally choose it if locked or near locked 60fps is available. But some people do prefer great image quality.

Tomb Raider had a 1080p/60fps mode on Pro.

Tomb Raider had a 1080p/60fps mode on Pro, while it was 1080p/30 on regular PS4.

Wasn't it more like 1080p/~40fps mode in reality though?
