But even then, the higher frame-rate and reduction in input latency help create a more responsive overall experience. Uncharted 2 is considered by many to offer the tightest gameplay experience in the series so it should come as no surprise to see that the other two games were modified to play more in line with its set-up. However, with the sequel, tweaks to gameplay feel less significant this time around. With Drake's Fortune it's clear that the core gameplay mechanics received a lot of adjustment in transitioning to PS4.
#Uncharted 2 Patch
We're hopeful that the 1.01 patch cleans up these issues but even without the patch, performance is still solid.
#Uncharted 2 Ps4
On PS4 where dips to 55fps are encountered, instead we see drops to 25fps on PS3. It should be noted that slowdown on PS4 occurs in many of the same areas on PS3 as well. We see similar dips in performance during the memorable train sequence as well. In such instances, we see dips into the mid-50s. In general, performance issues in version 1.00 are limited to scenes with lots of water or alpha effects.
This is one game worth owning on disc for those building their collection. The version of Uncharted 2 that appears on disc, however, is already very solid for the most part.
At the time of writing, the 1.01 patch is only just becoming available and we plan to put it through its paces shortly. Then we have the matter of frame-rate and as with the rest of the collection, we're looking at 60 frames per second with v-sync engaged. Image quality is simply excellent all around here. Even at its lowest level, it's still a substantial improvement over the trilinear filtering used on PlayStation 3. We see some surfaces operating with what looks similar to 16x AF while other, less important details seem to go as low as 4x. In addition, anisotropic filtering is utilised across the game with a variable level of quality.
#Uncharted 2 1080p
That means a full 1080p resolution coupled with an excellent post-process anti-aliasing solution that manages to dodge in-surface aliasing while minimising flicker and blur. To begin with, we see the expected improvements right up front. So how has Bluepoint tackled this already stunning looking game in bringing it to PlayStation 4? Improving upon an already polished experience is not a simple task by any means. Unlike Drake's Fortune, returning to the original PS3 release of Among Thieves isn't difficult - it remains a beautiful, highly playable game that continues to impress to this day. So when approaching the remastered Uncharted, we weren't entirely sure what to expect. The PS3 original was a technical marvel in its time and a huge improvement over the first Uncharted, with sweeping changes made to lighting, animation, materials, and frame-rate. Yet, more than any of its previous games, it was Uncharted 2 that really demonstrated just how much of a technical powerhouse the studio really had become. When it comes to pushing hardware to its limits, Naughty Dog is one of the best in the business.
