Played Fallout 4 last night with the 4k patch and even without a 4k tv (yet) it looks really good, I'm impressed. Hopefully picking up a 4k TV and AV receiver tomorrow...

make sure the amp is 2.2 compliant (if you are putting the one through it ) and not just 4k pass through

Yes, I've been getting stressed out trying to find the tech specs to make sure both are HDCP 2.2 compliant.

The receiver I'm looking at also does 4k upscaling too.

Mines arriving today but I have no games for it yet.. Is there a demo of sorts I can try to push the system and see how noisy or not it is?

There is a Forza 7 Demo. You could grab a months EA access.

Also played the 4K Fallout 4 patch it does look good but doesn't seem to run all that smooth. You can also tell it's a two year old game with a 4K patch, doesn't look remotely close to the likes of Wolfenstein 2 or AC:Origins which is obviously expected.

The framerate isnt brilliant is it

Wish some of these devs would aim for 1440p and upscale to atleast hit a SOLID 30fps minimum.

Playing LA Noire at the moment as I never really got anywhere near completion on the 360, still a great game and with all the DLC thrown in as well, but it does look dated even with the graphics overhaul so if anyone is thinking of getting it don't expect to much in that department.

Was quite bored with this game first time around, nice idea but just did not grab me.

Got EA Access? There's a BF2 trial which does look pretty, shame the game is ****.

Indeed, i'd expect it to be a bit smoother but Fallout never seems to run that great on console

VincentHanna · 30 Nov 2017 at 10:06

It doesn't run great on PC at times in 4K....

kinger8938 · 30 Nov 2017 at 10:15

It's not a great engine imo

Has anyone tried Diablo 3 enhanced?

No, and it has the word EA in it so not sure it's something I'd go for

Not because I hate them even though they warrant it, more so that I rarely happen to play any of their games.

Demo will do thanks. What was that insect demo I saw mentioned?

The engine is pants and it looked like a 360 game before the XBX patch imo.

Diablo in 4k is awesome.

I think I may grab D3 then! I liked it on controller, actually preferred it to the PC version.. a rarity for me! They nailed it.

Just got Forza 7 but i'm pretty sure it's not playing in HDR as when i play Gears of War 4 my tv tells me HDR is enabled but Forza doesn't?

Cant believe they don't sell FO3 GOTY on the store, just the base game with all DLC priced separate.

Same with Oblivion. The 360 digital library is such a mess. You can't even buy ME2 or ME3 digitally yet they are there as part of EA Access.

Well hopefully it's easier to navigate than the PS Store with the select one letter at a time search. Back to ebay I guess

Had 3 crashes with Fallout today since the new patch. The frame rate is also pretty bad at times was running great before the patch.....

Blehhhh

Noxia · 30 Nov 2017 at 17:27

Standard Bethesda non?

Not had any issues before the patch tbh. Restarted the console and it seems ok now. Wish they gave the option to run 1080p with the graphical additions rather than 4K so it would be nice and smooth like it was pre patch....

Noxia · 30 Nov 2017 at 17:42

I've never liked the performance on any of their console games, only reason I play them is I don't want to get back into pc gaming and something is better than nothing. I think the worst was the operation anchorage DLC on PS3. Agree it would be nice to have the option.

fantasticCG · 30 Nov 2017 at 17:49

I booted just now Skyrim and fallout 4, can’t see an option for the 4K and enhancements, is it auto applied ?
