TLoU Remasted Pre-PS5 patch destroys loading screens on PS4
- Thread starter yohan12
- Start date
This BS, giving us amazingly improved load times (those jerks), is obviously why Sony doesn't want to give info about their upcoming product. I mean it makes sense. Why would they want to promote that machine? They would obviously rather improve the experience of their existing users so they don't have to pay for the expensive upgrade they want everyone to buy. Those bastards.

Nice.
Just goes to show that some clever optimisation can make big improvements to a game.
Having said that, it would have been more interesting seeing what the PS5 load time would have been on an unpatched version. Maybe would have put a stop to all the 'everything loads in under 2 seconds' nonsense that has been getting peddled around here for weeks?

What would the unpatched version have to do with load times on the PS5? It's not like they are going to release that version on the console. Regardless of how they achieve "2 seconds" load times they achieve them. This does nothing to discount that if they indeed have load times that fast. Seems you are just looking for something.

It
It means Sucker Punch has elevated to absolute God status with Ghosts of Tsushima when they learned a way to compress 200m X 200m tiles into 2mb's.
When they learned how to do just that, I'm sure they shared the technology that is now being applied to across many games for the PS4.
My opinion and belief, at least.
Because seriously, I'm consistently amazed by how they pulled that off on a open world game with 7 - 8 year old hardware.

Well I admitted I didn't read the link. Or the tweet. I only saw the video a bit.
Also what should I be worried about?

So by trying to make the new hardware look good, they inadvertently showed they cut corners on the vanilla versions....nice

13 seconds is not basically non-existent .

2 years ago this "technology" wasn't disposable nor not completely understood.
Must be a combination of the new SO plus this Patch that changes the way the system decompress and loads the assets.
It's great part of the reason why the new machines load so much faster than current PCs with very fast SSDs. The way the files are stored and accesses is different. File storage got smarter than before, things are chancing in this area across the industry: https://www.anandtech.com/show/15959/nvme-zoned-namespaces-explained

GoT impressively shows this. Maybe the tech is being shared along with Oodle.

You think this is good?
Next week they’re releasing information on how Crash 1 on Playstation now loads the next level in eight seconds before you finish the last one.
This causes a rip in the fabric of spacetime to an alternate dimension where Halo Infinite runs at 8k 240FPS and Stone Cold Steve Austin is President.

Nice hyperbole fan boy. "Loading screens are virtually none exist" yet everything takes between 13 and 18 seconds.
Don't get me wrong its a fantastic improvement but not worth blowing your wad over.
Damn good on em though for taking the time to optimize a title so old.

Man does anyone care?
How about some news on TLOU2 upgrade on PS5... 60fps? Faster loading etc?
Ghosts of Tsushima confirmed there Upgrade, Naughty dog needs to step it up

Well, as you can see, not only me, but a lot of people.

It is a 6x loading times improvement... it went to 14’’ from 1’30’... and on a PS4 HDD... now think of Boost Mode on PS5...

Mark Cerny to sell gamer bath tub water with extra sauce:
Negative loading times, it will stop loading before starting. Like a time machineIt is a 6x loading times improvement... it went to 14’’ from 1’30’... and on a PS4 HDD... now think of Boost Mode on PS5...

What a gen this is shaping up to be, even games patched to take advantage of PS5 are seeing huge benefits on PS4. This is truly a "No man left behind scenario".......PS5 is the tide that lifts all boats......

That's what you get when a bunch of desperate programmers desperately want to keep their jobs in a desperate time, now go fix TLoU:II thanks.

Its cool but Id rather they talk about PS5 news like a upgrade TLOU2 like Sucker Punch has done for GOT.

It's not that difficult to guess what happened. Sony boasts 2 seconds loading with PS5 but that just won't happen magically because they use an SSD. Programmers have to work for that to be achieved so PS4 also benefits.

What if third party Ps4 games got this, and loaded faster on Ps4 than the same games on Series X?

TLOU2 and GOT are PS4 games dude, not PS5. Are you even reading what are you talking?

WTF at Until Dawn. Getting rid of load times altogether is completely, off-the-wall, message board fan-fiction nuts, but here we are.
Like others, my best guess is that Sony’s intense study of storage and loading, even if there’s no dedicated hardware in the PS4, has passed along some benefits.

Yes but those PS4 games came out in 2020, not 2013 on a console that is having its successor coming out in less than a month.
Sucker Punch announced that GOT is getting an upgrade for the PS5, 60fps. Alot more relevant today than a PS3 game getting an upgrade on a PS4 which is getting replaced by the PS5. Id rather have PS5 BC news

Great news but I kind of liked the long loading screen when starting a new game. You could listen the music and see the spores in the air.

You already answer your question. Sony cannot take advance anymore of crunching after TLOUS2 case, so those things started to take time again. ND are busy making the multiplayer I believe and SP are busy making the content for GoT.
Lets just say they'll start for the most easy/most popular until the heavy ones.

What lol. You're missing the point entirely. GoT came out in 2020 on PS4 and has already been confirmed to get a 60fps upgrade for PS5, and they're still adding other content and whatever else -- doing a great job and everyone's excited for it, myself included.
Naughty Dog, however, is making loading faster for a PS3 game remastered on PS4... (which is still extremely impressive)
I feel like if they just announce a TLOU2 60fps patch for PS5 or something, it would be a far better move and get a lot of people hyped up. (especially since they probably developed it with the PS5 in mind already)
People have already said the lack of talk about true PS4 bc/boost on PS5 has been a problem so it seems weird that this is what comes up instead.

GoT will have a minor update to 'unlock' the framerate and probably the 60 fps will be the famouns 'brute force' used when PC get bumps. Thats don't mean GoT will get a 'true' PS5 version like Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk.
Keep in mind that running the game at 60fps not mean the game 'receive' the proper PS5 version.
Dude, getting a PS5 version is more than just an update. They need to rework on the game to take full advantage of the PS5, not only just boosting the game because of the PS4 x PS5 specs.
Until ND and SP are free to work on their game on the PS5, none of those updates will get a real decent boost. There are more beyond fps. Resolution, texture, loading times, add ray tracing, lod, AA, etc...
I believe thats why they started with TLOUS. Is already an old game, so take less time than the recent PS4 games that really take advance of PS4 custom hardware.

They matched Series X load times... on PS4.
Until Dawn doesn't get any patches since 2015, this "instant loading" in the tweet was on PS4 Pro from the beginning.
For the TLOU i also think that their decompression was singlethreaded, ported straight from ps3 version, and now they add proper multithreading to it.
