Say brehs, need to get some advice. Looking for some games to play on the cheap as I don't plan on buying many more PS4 games this year (probably Gravity Rush 2 and TLG and thats all). So anything I should buy from the following sale to keep me occupied..

Tokyo Game Show Special Offer | Singapore (English)

Definitely getting Tearaway but what about the Ubishyt games Watch Dogs and Ass Creed? Did updates sort out Ass Creed? Anything else good there?

Frame rates are up to the devs. Btw, all consoles this gen are capable of locked 60fps it's just that most dev prioritize graphics over performance.

Yea I know all that. My thing was confirming the online shyt cause I heard the PS4 Pro upgrades won't change the online experience. So I'm confused on whether we will see the graphical and performance upgrades online as well. Like if the online gameplay in Battlefield 1 is gonna be smoother on the PS4 Pro.

If the game is 60fps it will be on both but if the slim can only do 30 and the pro could do 60 they will just keep it at 30 so no one gets an advantage

Oh ok. Pretty much what @Gambino said. They want to keep MP fair on standard and Pro, so they'll always share the same frame rates. Pro however will look better if you on the 4k wave.

Cool. This was my understanding. Thanks for confirming.

Yeah if a game is targeting 60fps on PS4, the PS4 Pro will have stabler framerates. Like a map/mode in say Battlefield that has frame drops would probably be much smoother on the Pro will rendered at a higher resolution e.g. 1080P.

I know UC4 MP will be 1080P with better gfx on the pro as opposed to 900P/60fps on the PS4.
