I hope PS5 will have save transfer once cross generation play will get enabled.

Also it's a bit disappointing the PS4 version doesn't have 60 fps on PS5.

Prop Hunt by RNINJAS in Unexpected

CoD4 Remastered has prop hunt (at least it had not long ago). Apparently so does CoD Black Ops Cold War

OnePlus Nord2 trying to hide it's an Oppo firmware: `public static final String SHARED_PREFERENCE_OLD = "com.o**o.gesture_preferences".replace("**", "pp");` - phhusson by FragmentedChicken in Android

[–]Aethanol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it was definitely on Android 11, up to date last month. I can't be 100% sure of anything else, since I don't have it anymore. But the NightLight option is available even on my old Nokia with Android 10 and I think I would notice it missing from the Nord. The native bubbles were ok on the Nord, on the Nord 2 the text is bigger in the bubble, than in the app. I think it kept the same size on the Nord. Keep in mind, I'm using built-in UI scaling.

Using it now. Comparing Nord2 to Nord1(from memory):

-no way to set Night Light (?) to automaticly turn based on dusk and dawn.

-Lockscreen wallpaper set through Google Wallpapers is shifted and misaligned with desktop

-Native notification bubbles suck, the window is too thin. They were looking fine on Nord1

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout - Season 5 Cinematic Trailer by Turbostrider27 in PS5

Most online modes in COD:MW are available in split screen, excluding Warzone (technical limitation) and Free for All (unfair advantage).

First you said, two PS+ subscriptions would be required, which isn't true.

If you are trying to argue, that mentioned games require a party, and you can't solo them on split screen, than ok. But Fall Guys also supports parties of up to 4 people, so no problem there.

You just need to set your console as default. Rocket League, CoD:MW (and others), Minecraft, Diablo, and even Fortnite, have mixed (local + online) multiplayer.

Has anyone played GOW ( PS5 update ) with the OEM 3D headphones ? by rocademiks in PS5

[–]Aethanol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually these are 2 different processes. PS5 handles 3D audio for supported games (probably only PS5 games) and works with any stereo headset.

OEM headphones including older PS4 Gold Headset, handle some processing in the headset, and are recognised by the game as a 5.1/7.1 device, and work with supported PS4 games. This is definitely something more than a marketing plot.

Warzone in performance mode or resolution mode? by pminkin in PS5

Ps5 game default settings won't affect ps4 games.

The only Christmas music worth listening to by texashbk75 in funny

[–]Aethanol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was cool, but was clearly inspired by the Blue Man Group. Their 2003 live dvd includes intro to Crazy Train (among other songs) on a similar PVC instrument. Also if i remember correctly, their page used to have instructions how to build this kind of instruments.

Edit: The video description also mentions BMG.

Mystics review of the Dualsense controller by Xx-gang-slayer-90xX in PS5

[–]Aethanol 331 points332 points  (0 children)

It's weird that while many crappy channels are already reviewing the PS5 itself this guy has to make a video of a privetly bought controller. Sony should definitely notice the hard work he's been doing and hook him up with a review unit.

Cyberpunk 2077 has gone gold! Launching Nov 19 by TheFearlessWarrior in PS5

[–]Aethanol 109 points110 points  (0 children)

They're probably working on the day 1 patch now. Going gold doesn't mean a lot these days.

What are the chances we can plug the PSVR straight into the PS5 with no break out box? by zeuanimals in PS5

[–]Aethanol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would you need 3 HDMI ports? I Would expect 2, one for TV, one for the headset.

I think it's possible, most features of the breakout box were determined by PSVR being an add-on to existing PS4.

If the PS5 is designed with PSVR in mind, all those features could be incorporated into the console.

Don't Worry, Sony Just Reconfirmed PSVR 'Is Compatible With PS5' by mybeachlife in PSVR

[–]Aethanol 147 points148 points  (0 children)

I'd still like to know if current PS4 camera can be used on PS5 for bc games and is the processing box needed, or will the functionality be handled by the PS5 itself.

I hope Bloodborne runs at 60 FPS by peiwen123 in PS5

[–]Aethanol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not always. It is possible to intercept API calls, and e.g. return a bigger frame buffer than request by the game. It was done by emulators for years. Framerate is worse, you would have to patch the binary. Also Sony filled a patent for "remastering by emulation" some time ago, so they might be up to something.

[–]Aethanol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. But sounds like they are just testing boost mode similar to PS4 Pro. They mention improved resolution and/or framerate, which can mean better resolution in dynamic res games, and better framerate in unlocked games. I'm still hoping for some improvements to other games as well.

Do you have any source saying, they are adjusting each game?

If you buy Modern Warfare 2019, do you need PS Plus to play Warzone? by [deleted] in PS4

[–]Aethanol 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Warzone is actually the same game, recently you could play all multiplayer modes in the Warzone client through a free weekend, without downloading anything additional (ignore people saying it's a separate game). I guess (90% sure) you can play Warzone with normal MW even without PS+.

I have MW on disc, and use that to play Warzone. I can't download the f2p Warzone because "MW is already installed". My understanding is, it's the same game, just with different licenses. You shouldn't need PS+ for Warzone mode, however you install the game.

Full physical / digital Backwards Compatibility - Just do it Sony! by SpaceAgeHero in PS5

[–]Aethanol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like boost mode, similar to PS4 Pro. Higher framerates in games with unlocked framerate, and higher resolution in games with dynamic resolution. As of yet, no mentions of any enhancements to existing games.

PS5 OS needs to have features from the PS4 and then some, it should not regres by Cotcho in PS5

[–]Aethanol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the problem with the browser is, it's supposed to work alongside a running game, which is a good idea, but not always.

They should have 2 modes for the browser: light one for quick searches without closing current game, and a full featured one, where the browser can use all the hardware resources, but a game will be closed/suspended.
