So it's a Japan only demo and it's locked on easy mode?

Wat?!

Anyway, I'll be avoiding that demo. Games close enough to release.

Did they clarify what the day 1 Pro patch will do?

4K +HDR. December should be where they will release another PS4 Pro patch with improved framerate.

Can't wait to play this on my Pro xD

I hope that's checkerboard rendering for downsampling of 1080p display on not just upscale to 4k.

Guys, you can make a Japanese PSN account within a minute. Just do that and download the game through your Japanese account tomorrow.

 

[Slaintimez]

Apparently the online Japanese communities don't like it

Source? I seen someone write the same on Neogaf. Its from Tabata words or just speculation?
Everytime i see most wanted games in Japan from Famitsu FFXV always leaves everyone in dust.

Did they clarify what the day 1 Pro patch will do?

Patch will come later they said. Currently game runs 40-50 fps at 1080p on PRO and had option for 4K\30fps.

Already create one

So there is no day one Pro patch? That is a major disappointment.

Oh well.

 

[Slaintimez]

I don't understand what you want from day1 patch for PRO. You already had significant improvements like FPS unlock and downsampling.
People who didn't buy PS4 Pro might be dissapointed now, not you. Cause they fuck them in the ass, 60fps >>> 30fps all the way.

 

[ChingleeTribal]

I'm confused now.

Can someone please give me confirmation:
-is there a day one pro patch for FFXV?
-if so, what does this consists of? Upscale to 4k or checkerboard rendering allowing for downsampling on 1080p displays?
-is there another Pro patch later down the line to improve other things?

Thank you.

1. Yes, there is.
2. Two different modes. You’ve got the base one that will target an upscaled 4K resolution and 30 frames per second. The second mode will target 1080p and up to 60 frames per second. Currently, the development team has the game running between 40 and 50 FPS at 1080p.
3. Around December they plan to release another patch with further performance upgrade.

 

[ChingleeTribal]

Okay cool, thanks.

Now all I need to know is if it's checkerboard rendering so I can downsample that baby!

"The last time Tabata drank alcohol at the SE Cafe, he drank one sip and got drunk and before he realized, he was home when he was suppose to go back to the office..."


LOL! Ok that's just cute xD

FFXVJP made an official tweet saying that the Judgment Disc runs from opening until halfway through Chapter 1, so I assume Chapter 0 will also be included.

Nice, i like the music from chapter zero, gonna just stay and listen to this!

Does anyone know when the demo will be available? I know it said the 11th, but like, at midnight or later during the day on the 11th?

 

[Argento]

I would like to play the demo, but i dont wanna ruin my experience with the game by playing the first chapter in an unknown language lol... I don't know a crap of japanese, so i may have to pass on the demo, even if i so fucking wanna play it...

I read about 10 a.m. EST. Nothing really confirmed tho, just read that on forums.

Its not even a whole chapter anyway.

I know, but still...
I actually would like to see the options menù, and all the stuff about customization, but i think that will be up online the second they release the demo lol, so i guess i might just pass, even if I pratically spoiled the beginning of the game with YouTube *sigh

 

[Bionicle8563]

Yeah the fact that its only 18 days away now makes me just want to wait, but I really want to get a handle on the combat before I enter the game. I know I can practice with PD, but I'd much rather experience the whole system as its meant to be. Also since it's set in the first chapter, and I pretty much know it like the back of my hand at this point, I don't mind playing it before the game comes out. Like, since it won't have everything that you can do in the first chapter, I don't think I'd mind playing the first chapter again when it comes out, just like how I won't mind playing around in Duscae again. Idk I'm both trying to validate getting the demo, and invalidate the reason for this demo at the same time in my mind. If it was in Eng I would've downloaded it instantly ><.

 

[Slaintimez]

Anyway its a great that you can expirience the combat by yourself before release and make a judgment, especially after that ass called Platinum Demo.

 

[Argento]

Yup. The Episode Duscae is a point... I pratically spoiled myself the Duscae region, but i won't mind playing there again anyway, so i might consider in playing the demo. I think that if i do, i will skip any dialogue or quest, and go kill stuff in the wild. That's what i'll do, no story or side story related things!
