ps5 games are $70. horizon is cross-gen. The alternative to a paid upgrade is that the ps4 game just flat out cost $70 instead of $60.I think a lot of people would be fine with a paid upgrade, but Horizon doesn't even offer that.
if anything that will be the change so complainers should really stfu or what they'll get is a "free upgrade" by only having access to the ps5 pricing model.
I think a lot of people would be fine with a paid upgrade, but Horizon doesn't even offer that.if you are reading the same resetera thread i am most or saying this is sooo confusing the the customer and dishonest and anti-consumer.
If you want to upgrade from PS4 -> PS5, you need to either get the $80 Deluxe Edition or one of the pricier ones. Or buy out the two games outright.

Last year we made a commitment to deliver free upgrades for our cross-gen launch titles, which included Horizon Forbidden West. While the pandemic's profound impact pushed Forbidden West out of the launch window we initially envisioned, we will stand by our offer: Players who purchase Horizon Forbidden West on PlayStation 4 will be able to upgrade to the PlayStation 5 version for free.They put out this statement 3 months ago.
Sony feels like they're being really dishonest about Horizon FW PS5Weird.
They put out this statement 3 months ago.
PS store still says nothing about it.
On PS5, I can't even search for the PS4 version. I can only find the $70 PS5 version. The PS4 version isn't mentioned on PS5, except in the $80 or so digital deluxe version.
I will end up buying it on my phone, so it's not the biggest deal. But why.

all I'm seeing is an argument they are wasting all that power in the ps5. I'm seeing a reason to be mad about cross gen. I'm seeing battleship in the "we believe in generations"Bruh, horizon ZD came out in early 2017. They were targeting 2016. So preproduction likely started in late 2016 as they were polishing horizon ZD. What hardware where they supposed to target? At that point nobody knew what PS5 was going to be. Heck SSDs and Raytracing in consoles was a pipedream.
1. GG went into the frozen wilds after zero dawn. i doubt pre production started in 2016.Wow it's really been ~5 years since Zero Dawn. That increases my hype for Forbidden West a lot. For some reason it felt like a quicker sequel.
2. this is a first party studio. they had reasonable target specs known to them.
Wow it's really been ~5 years since Zero Dawn. That increases my hype for Forbidden West a lot. For some reason it felt like a quicker sequel.Just 10 days short of 5 years.

Same rules as the GOW thread. (http://vizioneck.com/forum/index.php?topic=6155.0) Give a high, medium, and low prediction.
IE you expect it to get a 95 so you set that as your middle. Then you set 97 as your high because you don't think the game has a good chance of scoring above that. Then you set 88 as your low because you don't expect the game to score lower than that.
RESULTS WILL NOW BE SCORED SO THAT AN OVERALL WINNER CAN BE DETERMINED AT THE END OF THE YEAR. IF YOU HAVE THE CLOSEST PREDICTION, YOU EARN POINTS: SCORE +=100-(high prediction-low prediction)*2. IF THE FINAL MC FALLS OUTSIDE YOUR HIGH AND LOW PREDICTIONS, YOU LOSE POINTS: SCORE -=50.

this is the sequel to GoW,.. it's such a strong foundation that they literally cannot fudge this up. i'm not sure where the story goes from here but i have faith it will be good. all they really need to do is make more and more interesting bosses and this game will be amazing. people may think its not as groundbreaking as the original but i cannot see it dropping below a 90.

So why the heck did Elden Ring go gold over a month ago?Supposedly:
Almost definitely marketing reasons. They needed to do a CNT and integrate the feedback from it into the day one patch, and prepare collectors editions and market them. However that’s just my guess.

Lol Horizon has optional loading screens on PS5.
read it but did not see that.
While PS4 players might encounter the occasional loading screen (including helpful hints), PS5 players can toggle between Informative and Immediate, since the game loads a lot quicker and some might prefer to read the loading screen tips.

Yep, i'm an idiot...
Horizon ZD sold 2.6 million in the first two weeks. Big but not record breaking for Sony.It wasn't record breaking for Sony, but certainly started the trend of huge releases that weren't ND games. The only other games that did that before were
3 million in the first week seems likely.
I haven't seen any tv or youtube ads for this game. Both Tlou2 and ghost were pushed heavily.I can't say, I haven't seen many commercials of anything in the first place.
Is it just me? Could hurt first week numbers.

It'll be a few weeks for me unfortunately.
Prob next week.Xev is playing at least.
Strange having a big release like this without day 1 players.
Xev is playing at least.Same. Need to play other stuff first. Don't play games that much tbh
I would be playing but I'm in the middle of some other games.
I'm playing. So good. It's absolutely gorgeous. I'm giving all my money to any game that I want to succeed.Astro bot is a big one for me with that. I have loved the two games that have come out. And that's a franchise that i think probably needs and definitely deserves support.
I can see why he would have said that so far. The first opening part I was loving then it kinda gets ok but now I'm starting to have it open up all the way for me. I've put in 8ish hours so farBut can you cut the foliage with your sword?
I am absolutely stunned how lush the foliage and detailed they've made it.
They do still really love their fog/cloudy distances to hide and minimize what they have to have rendering in the distance which is disappointing. Sometimes it's a bit too much fog, imo.
I haven't seen any tv or youtube ads for this game. Both Tlou2 and ghost were pushed heavily.Amazon has advertising for Horizon:
Is it just me? Could hurt first week numbers.
So how's it going?...Haven't even started.
So how's it going?...I can't expand much but my coop buddy is playing and loves it.
Haven't even started.Maybe I'll start this week.
I can't expand much but my coop buddy is playing and loves it.That's good.
Maybe I'll start this week.was inevitable.
That's good.
From the outside looking in, it felt like Elden Ring took more of Horizon's thunder than botw did.
naw i loved the intro
Dear god the conversations are incredibly impressive. The first game was average/poor with their animations and editing, but this might be the best ever.Bigly praise. :o
They feel as if they were all created as individual cutscenes.
Bigly praise. :oI hope they do a gdc talk about it.
Zero Dawn came out as such an amazing first game to a new IP, so forbidden west had a lot to follow, but i think they ultimately did it well. Wasn't as great as zero dawn, but still my favorite game in whileZero Dawn 9.5
I guess onward to other games.Given covid, it's still very good. Can't think of a recent AAA that comes close.
Eh I'd agree with zero dawn but I'd say forbidden west is 8.5 to 9I loved a lot about it but it lacked so much compared to the first imo.
Forbidden West looks insane.I used photo mode a lot to zoom in and see how they did things. So many details are incredible. All cutscenes are real time because you can change your outfit, and some of them just have a ridiculous amount of stuff going on.
It's crazy for me because back when it was originally shown off, I think even digital foundry was disappointed.
And then it really seemed like a proper PS5 the next time it was shown.
Guerilla added an option to disable pickup animations.It's kinda slow because your character stops while the action is being performed. It would be nicer if it was Forged Odyssey or TLOU style where the animation targets the pickup but your legs keep working.
Heads Up: You can now Disable Pickup Animations in the Settings : horizon (https://www.reddit.com/r/horizon/comments/tssz58/heads_up_you_can_now_disable_pickup_animations_in/)
Which is kind of fascinating to me.
I'm getting my dog handed to me in this game. I'm getting one shot by a lot of things, and they brought out the Apex Ravagers already.There were a few difficulty spikes for me. The second I crossed the mountains, everything became super hard until I got the hang of things.
There were a few difficulty spikes for me. The second I crossed the mountains, everything became super hard until I got the hang of things.I don't mind the difficulty, it's just my defense is so weak and I can't upgrade my gear any further than I am. Like, I was doing a random quest and it was set for like level 17 I think. The end part of the mission has two level 20 stalkers. WTF? I keep getting one shot by them... I'm level 25. I'm not asking to barely take damage, I'm asking to not die by one hit.

There was another mission slated for level 10. The end fight was against a Ravager. Like, the hell?
Be sure to look at your outfit and change it during a fight if needed.This is true, but the outfits in the game are all relatively the same. If I was getting killed by elemental attacks, I'd get it, I'm getting one-shot by simple melee. Unless I'm missing something, there's no melee styled outfit up to where I am
In general outfits are pretty important to minimize damage taken.
We're already working on an upcoming patch which will include VRR support and a 40FPS Mode, so stay tuned for more.

Hands down the best animations I've seen in an open world game. Almost every single conversation, even those with random vendors, has relatively impressive animations.
Not sure why I watched this, but dang. Animations aren't perfect, but dang they're impressive. I'm assuming this is a fairly random cutscene, and yet it blows anything I've seen in the first game out of the water.
Still need to play the game, will probably be in a few weeks.

I've been wanting to bump this thread too. After gow I have a new perspective on forbidden west.Go on. Or make a thread, I'm interested in your thoughts on God of War.
Go on. Or make a thread, I'm interested in your thoughts on God of War.Mostly just that Ragnarok does a fair few things worse than Forbidden West and I didn't expect that. Pre release GOW felt like the "true" next gen game yet Horizon 2 often looks better and is more impressive. Even story and gameplay wise I think Forbidden West is better a lot of the time.
Started meh for me too. I also disliked the writing at times.Still in the beginning area.
Where are you?

Pre release GOW felt like the "true" next gen game yet Horizon 2 often looks better and is more impressive. Even story and gameplay wise I think Forbidden West is better a lot of the time.I had the same thoughts. I think God of War was really trapped in the PS4. I'm going to say some hearsay, but, it's tech feels very limited. Kratos looks fantastic, but the rest looks really flat. It doesn't help that the combat is still on a "It works" level. They patched it up from the first game, so it's not frustrating , but outside of 1 in 1 battles(Where the combat is fantastic), the combat is just there. They were spawning enemies behind you often, because of how restrictive they were with difficulty. So it overall felt like the devs were restricted and put all the focus into the story. Which I'm not sure was the right way to go. In a sense they should have chopped the story up and focus more on gameplay mechanics. Which is different to Forbidden West.
I liked Forbidden West a lot when I played it but I didn't fully appreciate how significant its upgrades were, until playing ragnarok. Of course it couldn't replicate the novelty of the first but I think it'll be a long time before a Sony sequel has that big of a glow up.

Which part did you make it to?
Forbidden West just felt right as a sequel. It still looks fantastic; and I played the game on a base PS4. They spent a lot of time on generating the side quests. They balanced the game to revamp the combat. Not in a way I agree with, but I can't say they didn't sit down and think about it. They also told just enough story.
I'm sure if I played Forbidden West straight without trying to craft armour and stuff, since I was getting my dog handed to me, I probably would have finished it faster than God of War, but I was more satisfied with Forbidden West. On the flip side, I finished God of War and I didn't finish Forbidden West, so Santa Monica did something right.
You haven't finished it? Which part did you make it to?Combat isn't bad or anything, it's just there. It shines with one-on-one combat though; boss fights are something else.
I liked the combat in both GOWs a lot but I see what you're saying.
I enjoyed the openning from a learning point of view, give you a simple dungeon to start off with. The issue is that they give you small mini open world at the beginning after the dungeon. They shouldn't have done that, but I understand why they did.It's not really a small area though unless you're referring to the daunt but I don't think enough people even made it there. It took two hours to get to the daunt and most games are much quicker getting you into the world like Ghost of Tsushima. I actually think the DLC will be really good because Guerrilla don't have to do that again and can literally just set you free in LA.

Smallish tutorial zone, medium mid game zone, and big end game zone. It works well enough imo but it made me dislike returning to old zones.

at a glance that looks great but as i watch it more,.. the clouds are disappearing as you approach them. it's quite visible on the right side. so i take it you can't actually fly into the clouds? not bad for a first attempt but certainly room to improve.That'd be a silly limitation to have so I wouldn't assume it's the cause, but either way I agree that the disappearing clouds don't look good.

Meanwhile the funny thing here is that they prominently featured this unimportant flaw in the Horizon trailer. I wouldn't expect the devs to go back and change it but I really wouldn't expect marketing to zoom in on it hahaha.
Before that scene came up I was going to comment on how I love Horizon's settlements and cities.I'm good with either. But I don't have a PS5. DLC is PS5 only no?

Horizon 1: 7.6 million in 1 year, 10 million in 2 years.yeah, exactly. horizon did well enough to be happy but it's faaaaar from sony's top dawg.
God of War Ragnarok 11 million in 3 months.
yeah, exactly. horizon did well enough to be happy but it's faaaaar from sony's top dawg.GG is definitely one of Sony's top dogs
GG is definitely one of Sony's top dogsnot sure you're math checks out there. 32.7 million - 8.4 million does indeed = 24.3 million but....
In fact (from the numbers we have) horizon ZD outsold any ND release from last gen
Horizon ZD : 24 million ~
Uncharted 4: 16 million
TLoU 2 : 10 million
Uncharted lost legacy : unknown. But definitely not 10 million
Ragnoraks numbers are just an another level.
not sure you're math checks out there. 32.7 million - 8.4 million does indeed = 24.3 million but....We already know that Horizon Zero Dawn sold over 20 million.
- horizon call of the mountain
- i'm not 100% sure that sony isn't double counting a bit with horizon frozen wilds. i know its bundled now with the "Complete" edition now but i payed for it separately.
Wow, Horizon Zero Dawn has officially sold over 20 MILLION copies around the world across PS4 and PC! What an incredible achievement @Guerrilla, and a big thank you to our hugely supportive fans!

yeah okay,. I either never saw or forgot about that tweet. clearly I'm wrong.It felt like Forbidden West disappeared after release; so few were talking about it online.
in a way though, that makes forbidden west look worse. lots of non-returning customers. myself included.

Jokes on you, it's almost 2 years since Horizon 2 came out.That awkward moment when you were right all along.
They'll announce the complete edition for PS5, and then it'll come out on PC 5 months from now.
we can add you to that "insiders" thread. would be great for tracking all the times you were wrong about a ps showcase. xDHorizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition launches on PS5 October 6, and comes to PC early 2024 ????

Watch the vid for the specifics, but it is REFRESHING to play a PC game on low end hardware like a Ryzen 5 3600/RTX 2070 Super without big frame-time issues all over the place. If you are looking for a good performing AND good looking RPG to play on PC right now, this is it!

On top of image quality upgrades, there are also performance upgrades on PC. 120fps - whether achieved via brute force or via DLSS 3 - is another palpable improvement over the console experience. The question is whether your PC has the horsepower to do so, which brings us onto the topic of Nixxes' recommended settings. In general, I think they are fine - with one caveat. To achieve the targets set out in the spec sheet, dynamic resolution scaling is required for consistency.
Those are my initial thoughts on Horizon Forbidden West in its pre-launch state. It's got a lot going for it and does look like a good port with plenty of customisation potential and a decent array of PC extras. Most importantly, it runs smoothly, without some of the consistency issues I saw in the launch versions of Marvel's Spider-Man or Ratchet and Clank - and general performance should satisfy users, especially if the default dynamic resolution scaling option is enabled.
speaking of horizon. The playstation direct site had the collectors edition with the tremortusk on sale for $99. So i bought it. lolYou got a lot of collectors editions?
I was surprised it wasn't all sold out right after launch. But they did have both it and the regalia edition.
You got a lot of collectors editions?yup. Usually all of playstation first party I grab if they have one. I've got one from God of War, GOW Ragnarok, Horizon 1 and 2, Uncharted 4, TLOU part 2, Spiderman 2, and God of War 3 I think. I have multiple other collectible stuff too like Altair with the apple of eden, a light up omni tool from ME, Mako statue from ME, N7 helmet from ME.
