Quality Mode: 30 FPS in 1440p with Dynamic Resolution Scaling Performance Mode: FPS is aiming at 60 in 900p with Dynamic Resolution Scaling (in 800p to 1080p range)
Let's hold on for a second, and imagine they had released the game a year later, around Xmas 2021, with patch 1.5 being the first after only a couple of weeks, and 1.6 the next one now. That would've changed things a LOT. 🙂
Yes it would, but they also would get a LOT of hate and complains, I remember everyone going crazy with each delay announcement, if they had delayed for more than an year they would be fucked. But they get fucked anyway, so Still, i love the game
No, they wouldn't have. Remember what they showed during the 2018 gameplay demo compared to the missions we got? I know it didn't represent the final look of the game, but they went in and straight up faked everything and lied to people about the features of the game. There was never any way for them to deliver what people expected the game to be. What they claimed this game to be was too ambitious. They couldn't even keep the same color palet from that demo. That was the best part about it.
Exactly. I don't know why devs keep pushing for 1440p resolutions. Frame rate is more important than resolution. But it's great CDPR delivered this performance mode.

@Brett Kohli quality mode has sharper graphics and effects that are absolutely noticeable in 1080p but doesn't make up for the better framrate imo. In 4k the compromise might be more consequential, not sure yet because I haven't tried it out yet in my 4k TV
@@VTX1759 performance mode doubles the framrate. Might not be noticeable in TH-cam but the difference is enormous. Quality dip in the sharpness and effects is also very apparent in 1080p though totally worth it for the bump in frame rate.
Performance mode's crowd density on the Series S seems to be roughly in line to what it is on the Xbox One X/PS4 Pro/Low on PC. I think the base PS4/Xbox One uses a setting even lower than that because those versions really do look like ghost towns in comparison
In performance mode they lowered the population density and maybe even the cars from traffic. I'm glad that we have quality mode. 🙂 I was hoping they will actually do something and optimize the game and increase population density and traffic density in this patch, but i guess you can't do that with an engine already created.. In performance mode 60fps is nice, but i think most of the time it feels like a 'ghost town' 🙂
I’ve got 90 hours in over the last several weeks and all day yesterday I noticed no differences in pop density. I’m sure it’s there, but nothing that says “ghost town”.
Don't be silly. There's nothing miraculous about a 100W TDP Series S beating a 7W mobile device with a chipset from 2015. Series S is a great console if you're not interested in 4K gaming, but if you want to make comparisons, you'll have to look at the PC market. And here, we're talking about lower midrange specs.
@@vaultlegend101 Series S is hands down the best bang-for-buck console right now. But that's because MS and Sony are losing money on all their consoles, while Nintendo are making big profits on Switch sales. MS are more interested in gaining Gamepass subscriptions, and both them and Sony repy heavily on game sales to earn money. Good for the customers, bc Series S is a steal at 279$.
Well I'll give a try now, I have the game for a year now on my series s, never played it. I knew CPR not giving the 60fps on patch 1.5 was just then being lazy.
Its weird how low the crowd density is on both considering that its a more cpu intensive task and the Series S has a really capable cpu compared to its gpu
I have a 1080p display, meaning that I won't see all the resolution from quality mode. Is there any advantage of using that mode, and not the performance one? I mean lighting, crowd density, etc. Is there a difference? (I don't mind playing in 30fps)
Interesting. Watching this at 1440p 60fps on a large screen, i'm struggling to see the res diffrence I thought there would be. I don't think this game gets close to 1440p in quality mode and prob sits closer to 1080p. The crowd density seems similar and even the graphical settings seem similar. I very much take the 30fps route of graphical quality is much better (Watch Dogs Legion as example) but I am finding it hard to justify turning downa close to 60fps for diffrences I can't really see even when trying to look.
That's what I was thinking with my review. I had played games like dying light 2 where the performance mode essentially goes 720p with 4k textures, so I feared the worst for cyberpunk. I am happily surprised.
Constant frame drops in the 55-60 range. Lowest reached was 54, I think? Seems to clock 60 FPS at least 3/4 of the time. Looks good, but I hope they optimize it further. Scale down shadows or something.
they could just give an option to set the fps to 50 or 55, that way they won't ever drop, i don't understand why they only let us pick between 30- 60- 120 always, on pc i played games with fps capped at 45 or 50 many times
@@EnricoDiLauro They need it synchronise with the refresh rate of your screen, so it needs to be 30hz or 60hz, otherwise you'll get screen tearing etc. If you have a Variable Refresh Rate screen though, then its a non issue as the refresh rate will sync to the framerate of the game. A lot of tv's are adding that feature in so its going to be a non issue in the future.
It depends some games with 30fps is not that bad so people can choose resolution over frame rate but games like dying light2 at 30fps is unplayable after the 60fps patch.

The gtx 1650 only offers 3 tflops and is based on an older architecture, the s series GPU reaches 4 tflops and its architecture is much newer. In my opinion the s series is more similar to the gtx 1660 in terms of performance.

How about the graphics? big difference or not so different?
