Was watching the little fella playing spiderman there....no way is it running at 60FPS in performance mode. Even when switched to fidelity mode Im barely getting the 30fps!!!!

He has completed 88% of the game at this stage and starting out it was running at the 60fps but the more he gets done the slower the game is getting....very laggy.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Not me. Silky smooth on performance mode. Only took a quick glance at fidelity mode but definite fps difference and the graphics didn't look good enough to warrant it so switched back to performance. Seemed fairly solid from beginning to end, no noticeable drops in fps.

You playing it from digital or disk?

There is a patch for AC:Valhalla now to offer the option of performance vs visual quality.

Can't say I noticed the difference too much in the quality when that was selected, but for the first time ever, I've seen what people mean about the drop in FPS. Sticking with 60FPS from here

Always switched to Fidelity for indoor areas in MM.
Ray tracing looks too good not to.
Performance all the way for most of the game though.

Anyone doing games haring with their mates and had issues playing PS4 games?

My mate can't access my games but I can access his.

Tried a licence restore while logged in as my account on his PS5 and ensured his PS5 is considered my home console but no joy.

Are you are wearing the Spiderverse suit and any spiderverse accessories , this slows Spider-Man to 15fps as part of the novelty . I had this issue and thought my PS5 had an issue until someone flagged this.

Yet still, ten days on, disc owners are in the lurch across Europe with no option to upgrade. Fűcking disgraceful they haven't fixed it yet.

Mad that it’s still not fixed. I finally gave in and set up a Turkish PSN account to download it, playing it through my Irish account. I was able to redeem the Season Pass & other DLC through my regular account so I won’t lose them when I close the new account, once they (hopefully) fix the issue.

If I purchase FIFA or Madden now for PS5 through the App Store will it automatically download again next Friday for the new edition for the console? Or am I better off just waiting until Friday and buying the discs for the PS5, I read they’ll be released then.

Thanks

OK cool so season pass and all is ok, that's good to hear. And trophies popping normally etc?

Might just do it as am sick of waiting.

Just as someone posted, once the trophies move over, it will record 15 seconds for each one. For Spider-Man I had 50 odd 15 second videos of the title screen

Was referring to Assassin's Creed Valhalla and there being no difference due to Turkish origin.

After setting up turkish account , how do you grant access from this Turkish account to play on regular account ? Really appreciate if you break down the main steps for me

As per the charter, this can't be discussed.

RedXIV

One thing to watch for if ye have kids using the PS5 also with their own accounts. The 15 second video for trophies is a profile specific setting. So you need to set it for every profile on the PlayStation.

Yeh everything is working on my main account as it should, I downloaded my season pass and dlc from Irish account.

One thing to note, if you got preorder dlc, it’s a 16 character code you enter on your Ubisoft account, not the PlayStation Store (Spent way too long trying to figure that one out).

It’s still bad that people have to resort to this kind of workaround. Enjoy it

Why, why, why do we not have the option to adjust deadzone these days? It would solve so many issues

Morning all, is there a price difference between disc and download.

I just squirt some electrical contact spray and move them forward and back, side to side a few times and they are back to new.

Thanks for that - seeing lots of reviews on Amazon that say it solved joycon drift. I had been replacing joycon sticks. Will def try it if I get drift on dual sense controller.

Just had a look at my trophies for a couple of games and I don’t seem to have any videos, just icons for each trophy. Has a look in settings and the trophy videos are switched on. Am I looking in the right place?

Are you in trophies? The videos save to media gallery

Outside of being able to re-sell the game and the price of the game, the differences would be down to the version of the specific game which may come with extras.

I'm looking for a 40" TV for my PS5 - for an attic space - so dont want to go any bigger.

I'm swamped with options in sales but dont know what to go for. Any recommendations? Thanks

EdIt: this looks good but a bit on the high side budget wise... Ideally would like to spend up to €400 if possible.

Console just froze while playing Spiderman MM. Pushing the power button was the only thing that worked. Console rebooted, repaired, fixed external hard drive and is now frozen on a black screen.

I'm avoiding playing from an external - seems to be root cause of issues. Must be to do with read speeds or something.
