Watch the latest performance comparison video, showing how Dying Light 2 Stay Human works on PlayStation 5 in three different modes:

- Performance mode (60 FPS+)
- Quality Mode with Ray Tracing
- Resolution Mode (4K)

 

[DispatchNinja]

Performance it is.

 

[adamsapple]

edit: RT mode is 30 FPS.


Ok, so just eye balling based on youtube HD.

RT mode looks like it's running at 60 FPS, I wish they would have said resolution metrics.
4K mode is definitely 30 FPS.
Performance mode probably targets 120 but falls pretty short of it, hence being labeled 60+ and not 120 FPS.

I think I'm gonna stick with the RT mode if my eyes aren't playing tricks on me and RT mode is targeting 60 FPS.

Otherwise, performance mode it is.

 

[chasimus]

Looks good! Will either go Quality or Performance. 60fps for me in a game like this. Tough to see what frames Quality was running at though

 

[smart_brazileiro]

The official discord says only performance is 60. Quality and RT are both 30fps. Nothing that can't be helped with motion interpolation on high.

 

[Phunkydiabetic]

Quality mode all day errday

 

[mansoor1980]

quality mode looks great as long as that 30 fps stays locked
why is the performance mode 60+? should be locked 60

 

[b0uncyfr0]

Not interested in anything at 30 fps, no matter how good it looks. Performance mode better be at least 1440p. Ideally 1620p at 60 fps, that'd be sweet.

quality mode is 30fps

 

[ozz ex machina]

PC version it is then.

 

[winjer]

You can see and feel the low fps on the 4K and quality mode.
Performance mode is significantly better.

 

[tvdaXD]

Shit, here I thought this was about Singleplayer, CO-OP or perhaps BTZ like the previous title...
Since I'm here tho, maxed out quality since PC.

[Riky]

Will take the performance mode with VRR, after playing Dying Light on Series X at 60fps I don't really want to go back to 30fps.

 

[Gone]

The game looks fuckin amazing.

 

[adamsapple]

Oh well, I guess the youtube video got me.

Performance mode it is then.

 

[Inviusx]

So, 1 mode basically....

 

[MikeM]

Performance mode. Staying away from 30fps like its COVID.

 

[DrJamesOxford]

I thought the whole point of next gen was to have it all inclusive

 

[BigTnaples]

Maybe. But Metro Exodus and Spider-Man did it. Probably a few others as well.

 

[adamsapple]

It's better the developers are letting players choose higher frame rate instead of arbitrarily just forcing a singular mode (with 30 FPS) ala Watch Dogs Legion at launch.

Maybe. But Metro Exodus and Spider-Man did it. Probably a few others as well.

Oh for sure, but the poster is right to call out my post, for some reason the YT compression made the RT segments look like they were above 30 FPS on my phone screen.

 

[Jadsey]

EEEew...30fps...I was just a little sick in my mouth.

 

[Hugare]

Oh shit, they were able to put RT shadows and RT reflections

Maybe even more? Dont remember all the RT features from that other trailer

Was expecting just RT reflections

Resolution seems low in quality mode, tho. Maybe I'm wrong.

I'm hyped af. Dying Light was one of my top 10 games of the last generation.

I’ll just pretend I never read that

 

[Lucifers Beard]

I think I’ll play in RT mode. That looked pretty impressive to me. Reality is that I’ll likely flick between that and performance though. Looks like a good time. Hoping the story isn’t bullshit long like the have been saying.

Its missing the RTGI I guess. Thats the most important one.

 

[Hugare]

Is it tho? I'm just guessing from what I saw in the video

Was able to notice shadows and reflections. RTGI is harder to spot, maybe its there.

We will see

 

[smart_brazileiro]

Usually I go with quality modes over performance, DS being the only exception so far, but performance looks so mich cleaner here I'll just have to use that.

 

[Dr.D00p]

Sigh...this is going to crush my 3080, isn't it.

I have no other expectation other than it running like a fucking slideshow @4K with RT, and I bet even DLSS won't get it to a locked 30fps without serious compromises in the options screen.

 

[HellforLeather]

Performance it is.

I will say that in games that give you the option, its hard to go back to 30 fps after you've messed around in 60fps.

 

[Jigsaah]

PC for me.

 

[intbal]

Same modes, but in case someone wanted additional footage of the different modes, here's the Series X version.
