I love this dev team. Small team big hearts!

Love this news today. Loved a solid 98% of the news this year. I dont think I've been this excited for a video game.

I was pretty sure the PS4 Pro wasn't capable of true native 4k, so if that's true then I will be immensely surprised (and have to stop mentioning that it doesn't do true 4k at work). Makes me mad because I have a $700 graphics card that can't play GTA V at 60fps at 4K

It's amazing what work can be done when a team only has one set of parts to have to optimize for as opposed to hundreds if not thousands.

The Witness, NBA 2k17, FIFA and PES, Skyrim, and TLOU:Remastered (and some other games I've forgotten) offer native 4K on Pro as well.

Curious to see what the framerate will be at 4K res

Will.most people even be able to tell the difference between 1080p and 1440 for the visual enhancements?

That's my expectation. And I would expect 4K to be 30 fps.

They said that 1440p will perform at a similar frame rate as the vanilla PS4 version. The Show in gameplay has always felt above 30 fps but below 60. I think that's what helps contribute to the judder.

The chat is funny for people who don't take life too seriously.

Fernando Rodney already had a tilted hat in this game in the past. Still doesn't mean we can edit them.

This game looks incredible.

I knew that the game was showing a slightly warmer tint! I was thinking it in an earlier video last month that showed the Cubs. I thought it was my warmer screen (I use f.lux because of my post-concussion syndrome), but after putting it next to MLB 16, I saw a bit warmer hues in some areas. I didn't know it was because of the sky reflection thing, though.

Very much wow!

True. I don't recall seeing it when Ramone cycled through the hat options in the RTTS stream. I did like the small added option to change how the hat rests on the head though (also as shown in the RTTS stream).

Dirt is still grey on home uniforms for four years in a row! :/

Interesting. Most of the articles I've seen on the pro (granted, before it came out) were mostly about how it wouldn't do full 4K. So that's good news, taking all my stuff in to gamestop today and trading up to a PS4 pro

You trading the vanilla PS4? I traded mine there when they had a deal for $175 in trade. Just wondering what they will offer you.
 
# 74 Blzer @ 03/16/17 11:00 PM
Curious what "high framerate" does in terms of actually improving the framerate itself, compared to that of simply consistently maintaining the framerate they already have.

Seriously, they could sell a 1080p user like myself on a PS4 all depending on that and the possible announcement of a Pro bundle with The Show.

Day one ps4, they're giving me $150 credit and $120 for my Xbox one. I originally got it to play forza but now those are going to pc and I got my gaming pc so why have the Xbox right? But yeah, I figure I have a 4k monitor should tide me over till I find a good deal on a 4k HDR tv. Trading in games and accessories so I won't have to pay anything

I asked the GameStop guy if they would be having any deals towards trading in the ps4 soon and he said probably around the holidays and I'm just like, that ain't ideal I need it for MLB 17!

Honestly in all my years working retail I've never seen a MLB The Show bundle with any ps4 or ps3 and it makes me sad

Granted it's only been 4 and a half years but you know.

I will say this - Nioh is almost like playing two different games in Action mode (mostly 720p, stable 60 FPS) vs Movie Mode (30 FPS with some judder, 1080p +). I haven't played Tomb Raider so I can't comment on what the options do there.

Even if it has to drop the resolution to maintain the high framerate like Nioh does, I feel like smooth gameplay (particularly while batting) far outweighs it.

I'd agree, but The Show doesn't exactly run in 30 FPS on the vanilla PS4 either. That's why I'm wondering what extra kind of boost it's getting.

Very intrigued by it. Don't exactly want to trade in my current PS4 though, so it may take shelling out 450 bones or so when all is said and done.

The framerate mode in ROTTR shoots anywhere from 40-60 fps depending on the scene. The other two options (visuals and 4K) are locked at 30.

I wonder if The Show will aim for 60fps stable in framerate mode.

As others have said, enhanced visuals mode with 1440p downsampling on my 1080p display, as long as it has a stable framerate, might be hard for me to turn down.

Shut up.

Just, shut up.

You had me at jersey sleeve length.
