Keirik Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Playing on a ps5, pretty high end Sony TV and just finished the 2 hour tutorial. My God this is a beautiful game. Can't wait to really dive into it. Loved the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirik Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Alright, here I am playing by myself and woah. A good 7-8 hours into Horizon. Just unlocked the world. It’s so jaw dropping beautiful on fidelity mode. I personally haven’t noticed any slow downs locked at 30 fps but I’m not an fps snob. I know some are. It’s a very deep game though. I’m enjoying the crap out of it. Enough that I haven’t touched cyberpunk yet after the next gen patch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 I'm still waiting for it to get shipped to me. lol I've heard nothing but great things so far. It sounds like there's a lot to do, and the game is loaded with content. I can't wait to dive in. Even watching YouTube videos, it's stunning. The level of detail in the environment and the villages is astounding. I've also heard that there are some graphical issues playing in Performance mode. Hopefully that gets fixed soon because I prefer playing with the higher framerates, especially for action games like this. 60FPS just looks so good compared to 30. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Horizon got its first patch today. I don't know know this one fixes the graphical issues in Performance Mode, but it addresses a bunch of other things. They know about the graphical problems and are working on it immediately. Credit to them for fixing them in a hurry, but I feel like something like that would have been discovered when testing the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Heaven Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Currently downloading Gran Turismo 7 for the PS5, 98 GBs, probably going to be close to maxing out my hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 I've never played that series. For someone who isn't big into cars and racing, it looks very cool. I might check it out at some point. I recently bought an extra HD for my console, 4TB worth. So, I'm officially ready for this generation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These days i think most games get released knowing there’s a day 1,3,10 day patxh it seems so common now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you made me check my ps5 and I’m at 160 gigs free space and I have like 4 games on the hdd. Nuts tbe expandable storage, isn’t there something specific you need to buy so there is no hiccups at all ? I know with the series x there was one specific external that was plug and play and also ran fast enough to not cause any issues with installed games off of it.

You need to get one of the SSDs that you can put inside to expand PS5 game storage. An external drive will only expand storage for PS4 games. I’ve got a 2 TB external on mine which has been sufficient enough given there aren’t many PS5 games out and few which I feel the need to have downloaded for constant use. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To expand the storage of the PS5, you will need to buy a M.2 SSD. If you can find a 2TB one on sale, I would do it. Install is easy. Just take off the covers and you will see a slot that is covered by a piece of metal. Unscrew it, remove the panel and insert the drive into the slot. There will be another screw there to fasten it in place. Then screw back on the cover and put the PS5 plate back on. Once you plug your system back in, format the drive when prompted. It's quite easy and takes minutes, and it's totally worth it. A lot games, especially the Triple A ones, are huge. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't even have to be tech savvy to do it. It's very simple. GT7 takes up almost 100 GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the one with the heatsink on it already and the 2TB if cash is not an issue. https://www.westerndigital.com/products/internal-drives/wd-black-sn850-nvme-ssd#WDS200T1XHE Edited March 3, 2022 by Sharpshooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
