who cares.

Yes they are simulating a network latency so if someone didnt have a good enough connection the effect would be slightly delayed by a few frames. Photon basically requires a stronger machine locally console/pc, the other techniques like after with voxel based is built for weaker devices such as mobile. Photons require a 3d renderer, while the mobile only requires a video decoder to simulate this lighting.

Pretty cool! I’ve got a couple questions though, not sure how familiar you are with it. But, when it says 150ms and 200ms latency, I’m assuming they are just manufacturing that latency to show how the lighting looks with that latency and that isn’t the latency from using this technology? Also, it says when it’s using photons, it still renders everything but requires a stronger client. Does it just mean stronger than the other techniques described but not as strong as it would be doing everything locally?

using cloud computing you could process on the fly lighting, shadows, and textures so visuals yes, other gameplay elements like AI, polygon count no however with voxels it could be a possibility. Most of these have been shown in demonstrations before see here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiWdJxshWMM. In Cerneys case he is talking about cloud streaming of the games couldnt benefit from additional cloud computing on top of it. let alone that PSNow streaming solution is streaming from basically ps3 hardware.

lets put cloud to the side for a second if this game was coming out with out it that limited environmental destruction would have just been the standard destruction. it only looks limited in comparison to the cloud because the cloud can compute a more strenuous amount of physics algorithms in comparison to the limited hardware available in the console. I am just putting in my 2 cents, complex destruction just isnt possible on the current hardware a good example is destruction in battlefield 4 many of the major events are scripted, when you shoot a plank of wood it breaks the same every single time on xbox, on pc the piece of wood will shatter in many different ways randomly. the cloud is just a giant server farm able to handle the complex computations.

sry just so many tools keep saying it

Yeah it is about war never changing, you guys have guys (on both sides) have been arguing about the same stuff for over 2 years now.

still 60fps.

Port.
360 PS3 Port.
A port of last gen.
Is not a Next-gen Exclusive.
And lazy@ss dev.

Dude… Let’s say you’re absolutely right about the PS4 not being as powerful as they said. We were all lied to, we believed it.

Guess what? MS lied to you when they said the X1 had to be online. MS lied to you when they said you had to have the Kinect. Let me guess, you are okay with that because you were fine with Kinect anyways and you liked the online part. That’s fine, you still bought a box from them even though you knew they were lying to you because you didn’t care. Well guess what? Nobody is crying over 1080/60 fps “lies” but you because you try and throw stones. We are all in the same boat, get over it.

I’m not even going to indulge you on the drive club vs forza debate because I know nothing about either game because I find racing games boring as fuck.

Still 60fps on both X1 and PS4.

MGS is a port. And, Torrence said the PS4 was more powerful on his show, but that’s ok. Debates, it’s oite.

Tor has been praising the Xbox One and the Kinect since Day 1, even when everyone was jumping on the hate wagon. Where were you when MS showed everyone that tech demo demonstrating what they were trying to accomplish using the Cloud, which turned out to be Crackdown 3? While many people, like Tony and myself were skeptical, Tor was adamant that shit was the real deal!

Find me a quote from Torrence that specifically has him saying PS4 is more powerful. I’ll wait.

By the way, MGS V:TPP is 60fps on both X1 and PS4 so…..yeah!

LMAO!
That’s the new PS4 excuse (it’s a matter of priorities); LMAO, GTFOOH! When M$ was telling you guys resolution didn’t matter, you guys went nuts. Now, “it’s a matter of preference”. Lol, there’s a PS4 excuse everyday.

Also, wtf is Uncharted 4 doing that’s special? Uncharted 4 is linear. No Campaign Co-op. No 4 player Campaign Co-op. No large maps. No Horde Mode. Etc. Nothing. Not one thing that hasn’t been done on the PS3.

You mean to lie & say Drive Club only wanted less than 50 cars, Fake tracks, Damage that means nothing, Invisible walls, No features, Awful online, 11 month delay after talking all that sh*t about Forza Motorsport 5s 200+ Cars- Accurate Tracks- Accurate Locations- etc all at a blistering 1080p 60fps. Please, Sony would love to run Drive Club at 1080p 60fps, the PS4 just isn’t powerful enough.

AAAnd, there’s no excuse for coming in at 30fps. I mean lol; all of a sudden it’s best to run at half speed…LMMFAO! Please stop.
Hey Coach, I’m gone run half speed during this game…LMAO!

Face it; the PS4 isn’t as powerful as they claimed. Period.

If you think that halo 5 or fable legends is close visually to QB uncharted or the order you’re delusional.

If you think those games if developed for the ps4 couldn’t run at 1080p/60fps you’re kidding yourself. It’s all a matter of priorities for the devs.

1. If you’re implying that Forza Motorsport 6 doesn’t look great, you’re kidding yourself. Same goes for Halo 5 & Fable Legends. Not only that, more importantly; those games I mentioned have incredible features, physics, & variations that are game changers all at 1080p 60fps.

2. I actually don’t give a damn about 1080p 60fps. I use it because Sony & lying@ss “Anonymous Devs” used it in conjunction with GDDR5, to create a false sense of power to diminish the value of the XBOX ONE. I didn’t fall for it 1 time. Nor did my boy RAAMO. I say it all the time now, to not let you forget where the bs started.

3. The PS4 doesn’t have 1, not 1, 1080p 60fps AAA next-gen Exclusive, period! I’m not talking about a port of a 360 or PS3 game.

I’d rather have a game that looks like Uncharted 4, the order, or Quantum Break than have it run 60fps.

Whose more at fault little girl?

Don Mattrick or Mark Cerny?

LOL! We know you have 2 Kinects in your house mate all used for perfecting your Soulja Boy dance!!!

Don Mattrick been watching every angle of thatA$$ since NOV. 22nd, 2013!

…

Look, I don’t have time to make shit up. I know you & your show downplayed a lot of what the XBOX ONE could do, namely, the PS4 being more powerful.

From now on, I’ll call you out earlier.

You were also on M$ about not being able to do 1080p games. All along I knew it could. The only thing the PS4 can do is port a 360 or PS3 game quicker to 1080p. When it comes to Next-gen Exclusive Games for the PS4, the PS4 will never do 1080p 60fps.

You can’t miss something I didn’t say. You are making shit up now.

It was a joke, I know that lol
