Would anyone want this or like it to come to PlayStation Pro i think it be awesome upgrade to graphic that PS4 has. I like to hear everyone though. So please let me know and if any Mod can ask if Yoshi think about it be nice to hear from him to

P.S I already know it wont be beat PC Graphic

What is Playstation pro? It is already on PS3 and PS4.

PlayStation Pro is the new console for 4K Graphic's that be coming out by end of the year.

Really? They called it PlayStation pro? Horrible name, They should of just left it named Neo.

It's what was previously called Playstation Neo and/or Playstation 4.5. It's an upgrade to the existing PS4 allowing 4k gaming and video capabilities. It was officially announced and named Playstation Pro today.

You can just run FFXIV on the pro. They don't have to bring it to the upgraded ps4.

Yes, of course FFXIV will be playable on the PS4 Pro. The question is whether or not SE will upgrade FFXIV to take advantage of some of the Pro's increased capabilities...

FFXIV is one game you may not see a ton of additions for ps4 pro. It already runs at 60fps on ps4, and the graphics are already nearly equal to extreme settings on PC. You may see a slight bump to things like Shadows or draw distance if they wanted to, but its already pretty close to pc graphics as it is.

It doesn't run at 4K resolution on PS4---that's a change they could possibly support.

I made a thread for it super early, back when most people didn't believe me that a PS4 Pro even exists, but devs have been prepping for months for it so of course it exists.

Basically games which have already been published are not required to make a "forwards-compatible" patch to take advantage of the Pro spec, but they can if they choose to, and newly published games will be required to support the higher spec.

I would keep in mind that MMOs, by necessity, tend to tone things back graphically speaking compared to the latest single player games, even at max settings. So I wouldn't expect them to go nuts with the Pro's hardware upgrades.

The good thing is that the pro will keep the game pegged at 60fps. Occasionally in some intense fights or environments you can feel the ps4 frame rate sag a little. That should be completely remedied without even needing a patch, simply because of the additional horsepower.

"Sag a little" ...mobs that form around s-rank hunts make it sag more than a little. XD

They may not need to do anything for the game to look and run better on PS4 Pro, but they will be able to include more graphics options present only on PC right now as options for PS4Pro players. But, the game should run on PS4Pro unmodified with better framerates and fidelity thanks to the improvements in the hardware in the PS4Pro.

I play on PC and PS4. On PC the graphics look a lot nicer. I think there are some improvements they can make using PS4 Pro.

The PS4 pro doesn't do native 4k it upscales. So for FFXIV it really wouldn't make too much of a difference on the system.
