New Beta Update have Boost Mode 95% of the Games run now better! They runs smooth as hell now very good FPS improvements in 95% of all PS4 games (without Pro Support)

Does anyone without a Ps4 Pro Console have a beta Key left for me? Very Happy

im very pissed that they added this mode and i dont sign up for the Beta -.-

The official statement seems to be that "games with variable FPS might benefit". Is it confirmed that many games do actually run smoother?

It's too early to tell I think. There are some videos on YT, mostly with problematic games and the results are pretty promising, there's a very visible difference.





There are many of these on yt. Sometimes it's more visible, sometimes less, depending on the problems the game in question actually had. Sadly, it also doesn't solve frame pacing issues some games have - like Bloodborne, although it does run more smoothly too. We'll know more once Digital Foundry publishes a more in-depth analysis.

Most games are locked at 30 fps anyway so... it's not a dramatic change.

Unlocked FPS games like Tomb Raider 2013 are running at 60 fps though now.

It allows most 30 fps games to actually run at 30fps though.

Yeah, it won't allow to go over the cap. But since so many games don't run so well nowadays, I'd say it is a pretty noticeable change, if only because of lazy optimization. I'm a bit affraid it may make devs even more lazy in regards to standard PS4 performance, however.

Whatever the reason, I'll always take improvements over not having improvements. Razz

so the real playstation 4 came out in 2016... Laughing Laughing Laughing

this patch should be made available for ps4 plebs

now it looks like when ps5 comes out it'll be worth waiting for the ps5 pro to come out few years later. Rolling Eyes
