exactly...I don't know why people think a $500 console should run this game as well as a $1000+ PC - if you want high graphic settings and smooth FPS no matter the conditions you need to get your bum off the couch and play on a decent PC.Yeah because your CPU does all the work in those situations a high end GPU doesn't really help at all, i thought people would get this by now MMOs are heavily (single threaded) CPU bound and that's also why they can't do much to improve this any further on the PS4 Pro it uses the same weak AMD Jaguar CPU as the og PS4 just a bit higher clocked.

Or SE could not make promises they cannot fulfill. The PS4 Pro isn't some cheap ass piece of hardware. It CAN do things, but only if developers put some effort into it.
It costs less than most medium- high end graphics cards alone. They also didn't promise what you say they promised.
The PS4 pro IS a cheap piece of hardware, That's the point behind consoles. And as has been stated, SE didn't promise anything
I do not own a PS4 Pro, but after slogging through 12 pages of this thread; I can sort-of relate. But if people with 1000$+ can't clock in 60 FPS in crowded zones, how can you expect an (I'm not a PC elitist ) admittedly inferior machine to compare? It cannot be helped. I am sorry you were lied to.![]()

Reading some of these comments affirms my belief mmo's should never be released on consoles.
After a quick perusal of Reddit, it seems to mirror the sentiments of the majority of this thread. Expected performance does not equal promised and most are happy with what they got. No matter how hard you argue it, your perception has been unrealistic from the outset and you will only continue to be disappointed until you temper your expectations.
I'm starting to think that you literally do not know what literally means.

They just hold the game back - too bad they can't drop support for PS4 entirely. Maybe at the end of SB for the next expansion they can give out free PC copies for transitioning potato console owners like they did for PS3>PS4.
Are they going to give us free PCs then too? It's already confirmed that it's PCs holding the game back, namely the 32-bit toasters half the fanbase in Japan still uses. Please don't be jerks to other people and criticise their ability to play the game. We already missed out on the whole of 1.x and had to migrate hardware (in many cases) once.
I'm not saying that my PS4 runs the game better than PC (heck, my OG PS4 runs a heck of a lot worse than my buddies right now, since I don't have a SSD!)
But I still don't want to go PC.
