The fuzz is that we have a lot of people "concerned" and "extremely vexed" lately.
So they doubt the claims when they are made, and disappear when it's confirmed -- making everyone else look oddly paranoid and like they are making a big fuss over nothing.
You are absolutely right: Once Naughty Dog mentioned they were shooting for a 1080p/60fps experience, that should have been that given what we know. But nope, lots of "concern" and "vexing" going on for months now. It's silly.
It's one thing -- and healthy -- to be skeptical and cautious. It's another entirely to be a straight up wet blanket.
Hell, one of the first reactions to "we have worked hard to remove drops" was someone saying "looks like there will be drops". What the hell?
Not related to anything, but whats the story of this gif?
Also, am i really the only person that thought TLOU's MP sucked? The whole weapon upgrade stuff was really unbalanced, same goes for some of the perks related to crafting. The default number of maps was really poor and it lacked interesting modes.
And a great case study for ND/ICE
but yeah, I think most work went into translating the rendering parts of the engine and using the right resources for the right tweaks. Ps3 probably needed some SPU magic to realize certain effects that ps4 can achieve out of the box, and vice versa, ps4 missing some of that SPU grunt.

Got it. So, it's only the MP extras, that are affected. To my understanding the censorship only involves the MP as well? If so, I think I'll stay with the EU version, as I'm most likely not going to play the MP this time either, as I'm not fond of competitive modes.

I just confirmed via Twitter with the lead programmer from Naughty Dog.
60fps for BOTH SP and MP. Yeah!!! Now officially stoked!
I see your phone is decently charged, but you should click that notification
sigh
i understand having the perception that getting this to run at 1080p/60fps is not an easy task. Not only did it already look quite good (for the hardware), but there's also the change in architecture. There have been remasters/ports who were unable to do it. Wind Waker HD for instance, and that was 2 generations apart. Tomb Raider drops below 60. Etc.
But this is Naughty Wizards. Why do you doubt Naughty Wizards?
To doubt U4 at 1080p/60fps is one thing (and personally i doubt that too), but this? It's hard, but the kind of hard that isn't hard for Naughty Mages.

It's just that they never promised rock solid 60 before they were able to achieve it. It isn't really about doubting them as much as it is wondering if they did it. If they just said "it's solid 60" from the start, we'd believe them.
They'd be lying though, so I appreciate the honesty. It's even kinda interesting how we get excited along with them when they make progress on the performance, it's really fun to read those tweets. We probably wouldn't be as impressed if we weren't following the process.

This gif needs to be erased from the internet.
I like how the dad is so focused on the game that he doesn't even see his son embarrass himself so much that a gif is made over it.

You can show people proof, and they will continue to disregard it. Like many in this thread have already done.

NaughtyDog said:
YAY, more polygons per frame *AND* more frames per second
on top of having over twice the native resolution of the 720p PS3 ver
Not to mention all this probably just "training" so Naughty Dog can really strive to reach 60 FPS with Uncharted 4 in 2015.
Naughty Dog LIKES to be ON TOP

I still just hope its real, solid 60fps and not, you know, "60fps". Seeing as how its being talked about by devs enthusiastically and isnt just marketing drone spew, I'm fairly confident, but forgive me if I don't rest easy until its out. No, I'm not going to get any good rest until this is out. Daddy needs a shiny new disco ball.

Do you think the extra animations and AI from the original reveal will be in the remastered ver? like the enemies looking through cupboards and draws for loot.
I'll watch any movie featuring Megan Fox and ass play.
Nope. No changes like this.
They specifically wanted to avoid the George Lucas effect and were looking to port it over so it was as close to identical as one can get to the PS3 version.

Anybody get their whopping 10$ refund from the PSN preorders?
Why would the refund be more than $10 dollars?
I appreciate the TFS joke.

Question was did anybody get theirs yet.

This game is being released this month, and still no gameplay footage?

Sorry, I didn't see you asked specifically for MP

It's because it's in 30FPS and they don't want people to know.
The noted insider "Cyborg" spilled the beans a few pages back.
Believes.
