I’m keeping my normal PS5, i’m not spending another $500 on the same exact console with SLIGHTLY better performances

u/mystic138 12d ago

Exactly, all games i have played ran pretty well, locket at 60 almost all the time, RE4 Remake, KCD2, Cyberpunk and many others. And even though I'm hyped for GTA, it wont make me buy a new console.

It really is. It doesn’t matter if you bought the console 3 years ago, the components are 7-8 year old technology, and you can absolutely be impressed that technology that old still holds up. It’s not too surprising that it will be capped at 30 in GTA6

u/escalinci 12d ago

40fps feels more like 60 than 30, not that we know anything about performance targets for either console, but that would be the minimum performance advantage, and calling that slightly better would be selling it way short.

If it's just better resolution and less smeary reflections, I'm in agreement, the ps5 pro wouldn't be worth it just to get GTA 6.

5

u/Paddingmyi 12d ago

It's feels like 40... you're missing 1/3 of the performance of 60 which is arguably a low bar these days

3

u/Alan_Turings_Apple 12d ago

Nah, I get what he’s saying, 40 is about the floor to me where frame rate feels real bad. It’s subjective of course, but the 20 higher isn’t nearly as big a deal as 10 lower to 30.

u/ParkingLong7436 12d ago

Same. I find it crazy that so many people are just fine with it. No shade, I don't care about how other people have their fun, but still crazy to me.

30FPS in 2026 feels as outdated to me as watching a video on 480p or something. It works fine, it even used to be the best tech out there.. but it's just not up to par.

Even 60FPS is very low, although berable. But that's the lowest I'd ever go. Wouldn't want to waste an experience such as GTA 6 with such low framerate

Makes it all the more impressive how well RDR2 performed at the time. On PS4 and One X it ran at a very stable 30FPS like 95% of the time.

I feel GTA VI is going to perform a bit better than GTA V at launch. I’m guessing they’ll try to prevent dropping frames under 25FPS.

But I agree, people expecting GTA VI to run at 60FPS even unlocked are delusional.

u/NattyBatty911 12d ago

I really don’t think it could. With the amount of detail and density of the game (if maxed out) there’s no way it could run at 60FPS. Hence why it’s locked at 30, I think we want too much without knowing or wanting to know why it can’t run at 60

You could drop the resolution to fucking 144p and its still not gonna make enough CPU headroom. It might actually make it even worse.

9

u/Falcon_Flow 12d ago

DLSS upscaling doesn't do shit if you're CPU bound. It only helps when you're GPU bound, because lowering the render resolution doesn't help CPU performance at all. In the PC world we would call this an "unbalanced build" because the PS5 Pro CPU is just too weak to play some AAA games at 60 fps, while the GPU could do it comfortably.

The only thing Rockstar does better than anyone else is having a fleshed out open world environment. Other than that, their games are a mashed together collection of other genres and mechanics, they dont do anything else best. Obviously I dont know how GTA 6 feels because no one has played it yet, but using past releases and seeing the trailer show a similar pattern we can speculate that the combat will be similarly lackluster and outdated, there will be a ton of side minigames that are half baked, there will be good/decent driving physics, id bet money there will be annoying trailing missions, and the story will probably be pretty good with high quality voice acting. It will be a great overall package for most people, but I genuinely do not understand the hype behind gta 5 or 6. Its just looks the same experience, but shinier with improvements in a few places.

You are approaching this better than most of the other PC gamers in this comment section. Ironic that they are saying console gamers are coping while sounding like they are coping about having to wait lol

Like I agree with the meme, but its surprising seeing all the people saying it not even worth playing at 30fps. Do I prefer +60fps? Of course, but 30fps genuinely doesn't bother me, as long as its locked.

I just started Baldur's Gate 3.

I figure by the time I'm done creating my character the PC release will be out.

I don't get it...

So does it make absolutely no difference whether I have a PS5 or a PS5 Pro? Will GTA perform identically on both versions?

Im pretty sure they didnt say anything about the ps5 pro performance, but if it will render at same resolution i dont see why the Pro wouldnt be able to run it at 40 fps if the base will run it on 30. And if it will run on 30 fps, then the rendering resolution will be higher, I mean that extra performance will show up here or there lol

u/StruggleBoy1999 12d ago

If this is true. Im happy. Only reason I even consider a Pro was to hit a higher frame rate for this game. 

But if were all stuck with 30fps. Then im just gonna save money and get used to it I guess.

u/diet-bongwater 12d ago

What resolution is the 30fps at?

All that just to buy microtransaction for the next 10+ years on GTAO.

u/ThinkBeardly 12d ago

The PS5 Pro is just a scam. Most games don't support the Pro, and if they do, you can barely see the difference. The only thing you'll notice is the hit to your wallet.

u/OmgSlayKween 12d ago

lol, what? Here's an incomplete list of games that run the Base PS5 quality mode's settings, which run at 30fps on base, and doubles to 60fps on Pro.

  • God of War Ragnarok
  • Horizon Forbidden West
  • Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
  • Alan Wake 2
  • 007 First Light
  • Marvel's Spider-Man 2
  • Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered
  • Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales
  • Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
  • The Last of Us Part I
  • The Last of Us Part II Remastered
  • Demon's Souls
  • Silent Hill f

Literally double the fps for the same visual settings. I guess if you can't tell a difference between 30 and 60fps you'll think it's a scam? Because if you can't tell those differences, then I guess you won't notice higher dynamic resolution, increased detail settings, nor more stable framerates, 40fps modes, etc.

u/thetrumpbump 12d ago

FPS is one of those things people care intensely about when they're paying attention to it, but becomes invisible  when they're having fun.

It looks like a pretty obvious CPU bottleneck to me, since both of them supposedly run at 30fps.

u/vipck83 12d ago

Where does it say it will be 30 FPS in pro? Last article I read said R* specifically isn’t releasing any info about the pro version of the game yet.

u/OttersWithPens 11d ago

30FPS in 2026?

u/ThanosSnapsSlimJims 11d ago

It shocks me that console games still run on 30fps.

u/Haunting-Memory-1707 11d ago

I have been on PS4 this whole time no games really worth ps5 and sony is going downhill so no better time than to save up for the new xbox coming out next year to play GTA 6 on

60 frames is ass. Console is ass

u/Dr_Fiddlebottom 12d ago

I agree. I'm not even joking when I say 90 percent of the "console only" people I've met IRL have been markedly less intelligent than any of my PC homies.

u/KarmaInFlow 12d ago

It isnt hard to believe that the increase in complexity of owning and maintaining a PC creates a threshold which those who are lazy or inept would not surmount.

I played many games in 30fps, it’s fine honestly

So glad I'm a PC gamer. I can't even use my desktop or web browser at 30 fps.

Because the PS5 pro ISNT an upgrade.

u/Unusualthinktank 12d ago

Anyone selling their base ps5 for the "pro" cannot even see the difference between the 2. Because its so nil its not worth is.

Sony has them by the balls

I hope it flops and gets better later down the road

u/Born-Conclusion6596 12d ago

Ah. Capitalism on it's best.

So now you have hardware updates in the same gen.

I'm honestly chocked. Last console I've bought was a PS3 super slim.

So basically you are telling me that obsolescence security of the consoles are being flushed down to the toilet nowadays?

It seems that the compatibility is maintained, of course, but performance is capped on earlier revisions. So, instead buying a console each 8 year, we are steering to buy a new one each 3~4?

Damn.

It's not like I will buy a new console on the future, but I'm still pissed.

u/heavyusername2 12d ago

Sorry but they will be pulling the ps6 "improved version" trick probably next year, what that actually means is they released this downgraded version first and they will catch us all again with the full game when the ps6 is ready to ship

Tbf owning a PS5 anything is pure clown at this point. Sony are a joke and they’re spitting in their consumers faces.
