Skullahh Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 How does it fair? how often would the framerate drop during gameplay? Is it worth to get it on ps4 or wait to get a ps5 and buy it then? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post You Posted February 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 27, 2022 (edited) Performance and gfx are just like Bloodborne, if you've played that. Graphics are incredible for a PS4 game, and absolute solid 30fps. I've been in fights with about 15 zombie/ghoul type enemies and there was no slowdown at all. FromSoftware have done an incredible job and it's very nice of them to be kind to PS4 owners and not just make a good PS5 game and release a shit PS4 version, like every other software company seems to be doing these days. Ironically the PS4 version on the whole runs better than on PC which has quite a lot of issues. See for yourself how good it looks on base PS4. Anyone else worrying about the game and doesn't have a PS4, you have no worries at all. Edited February 27, 2022 by enaysoft 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skullahh Posted February 27, 2022 Author Share Posted February 27, 2022 I'll see about picking it up in the near future. Thank you for showing me this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnhallowedBlood Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I haven't played the PS5 version so I have nothing to compare it to, but the PS4 version looks great and plays very well. No complaints from me so far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cy1999aek_maik Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I've played 5 hours of it so far and on the ps4 pro it runs flawlessly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZandatsuRising Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 On PS5 the game does not run 100% with 60fps. It has slowdowns here and their even if your in Performance mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crzy Minus Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 (edited) Playing on PS4 Pro, game still looks great and playable. During the open-world it's mostly 30 fps which I'm fine with, but during dungeons it can often go above 30 and feel pretty smooth. As someone who currently can't afford a PS5 and doesn't meet the minimum specs on PC (which is currently badly optimized regardless), PS4 Pro is not a bad choice at all to experience the game.

tranquility101 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I'm on a Base PS4. I'd say it runs smoother than Bloodborne. They do this "cool thing" with Elden Ring PS4 where if there's too many monsters on the screen (rarely) it will make the monsters have less animation frames but keep up without the gameplay lagging on you. I haven't noticed any other issues on my Base PS4 with any pop up textures or pop up monsters or anything negatively affecting my experience. Only down side of running it on a Base PS4 is loading times between deaths, and I die a lot ? There was one time I mounted my horse but my character was suspended mid-air like he was floating by himself, then he randomly died -- but seemed more like a bug than a performance issue! LOVE THIS GAME! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sillyrobo75 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) thx for linking that video @enaysoft Since I have a ps4 this is really great news, it seems like it has the same ol frame pace issues that were present in previous From Soft games on console, which sucks since it's been a common complain since Bloodborne, but other than that it seems like if you were ok with how DS3 ran on ps4 then you should be pretty happy with this version of the game.

ThirdAwakening Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 The only time I’ve had slowdown is when a couple of bug enemies did large cloud poison attacks a few rooms away from me as they were chasing me. Loading speed, especially after death at launch is WAY BETTER than the dumpster fire of 40-50+ seconds to revive in Bloodborne at launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exsentry Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 (edited) I'm playing it on my original PS4 (too cheap to get a Pro or PS5 ), and no issues. Some load times can be lengthy, however, it's not that bad and I have seen the same load time in other platforms on YT.

starcrunch061 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I find load times to be reasonable. I find frame rate to be acceptable. But my issue (as I stated in a status update) is that input delay is very real on PS4. It sucks that there is a quarter second between when I hit the button and when I actually dodge. I've also heard that i-frames during dodges are wonky. I'm not good enough at these games to make that determination, but others that I know are, and they have made videos on this.

twyz Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 Performance aside, are the PS5 and PS4 versions the same game? I mean, are there any gameplay mechanics that the PS5 has that the PS4 lacks because it can't handle it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ps4 is maxed at 1080p/30fps though a ps4 pro can push 1800p/35fps. ps5 is resolution mode @ 4K/40-45fps, or Performance mode can be 2160p(4K) and 1620p, reaching 60fps with some drops. However if you play the ps4 copy on a ps5 it will perform a bit better in backwards compatibility on the ps5 You're welcome Edited March 8, 2022 by Infected Elite 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be willing to sacrifice that for perfect 60. PC version has performed fine for me on a RTX 3080/Core i9-10900 KF. I have it running on mostly max at 2560 x 1440, with motion blur dialed down to medium. No crashing, and it runs well except for a rare momentary freeze. Loading is quick after dying or fast-traveling. For a console version I'll wait until I get PS5... hopefully by then PS5 will get further optimisation to run at a solid 60. PC version does have some stuttering because it's a DX12 title lacking shader precompilation. The more you've played, the less of an issue this becomes. One thing I like is that Elden Ring encourages more exploration than DS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sealior Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 I did the platinum first on ps5 and now on ps4 and i must say, the only difference i noticed so far is the loading screen times and the graphics less crispy. Still ps4 version runs as smooth as ps5. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YokA_sun Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 PS5 version has definitely much more extra effect on. It's so obvious especially in the citadel area. The PS4 version has mostly foggy and low tone in colors (less rendering). PS5 version (performance) is more vivid. If you have PS5, I'd say definitely play PS5 in performance mode rather than PS4. Elden ring in PS4 is on par with Dark souls 3 on PS4 IMO. Not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raccoon_Peddler Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 runs surprisingly well on ps4 pro there is the occasional frame drops but nothing game breaking . only complaints i have are the load times and like most newer games it makes the fan run a lot and it makes my console sound like an airplane p.s my console has been cleaned and the thermal paste has been replaced recently so its not an overheating issue its just a ps4 thing i guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
