"The title is actually \"what's up with PS5 visuals?\" but I changed it since the Hitman 3 analysis title wasn't popular.\n\n\nNext-gen support lands for The Division 2. Its latest update 1.21 lets PS5, Xbox Series X and S all run at 60fps, though there are some curious side-effects on Sony's latest machine. Even compared to PS4 Pro it's bizarrely missing screen-space reflections and volumetric fog. Tom and Alex dissect the update to talk on the state of the game on all platforms.\n\n\nSummary incoming:\n\n- Game is running in BC mode, or as Tom calls it \"BC+ mode\"\n- Notable downgrades to PS5 version compared to PS4 Pro, missing fog and other effects\n- Series S targets 60fps/1080p (dynamic)\n- Series X targets 60fps/4k, as high as native 4k, drops as low as 1800p\n- PS5 reconstructs to 4k from a max resolution of 1890p, lowest res they counted was 1080p\n- Series X takes lead with better BC enhancements\n- Newer consoles have better texture pop-in\n- Tom hopes the missing effects on PS5 is a bug that will be addressed, Alex surprised this patch even made it out the door in current state\n- Black levels are crushed on PS5 version (around 8:20 mark)\n- Reflections not working properly on PS5, flat out missing in some areas, Alex says it is definitely a bug that needs to be addressed\n- PS5 holds 60 fps very well, Tom did notice one instance of screen tearing around the 12:15 mark that wasn't duplicated on Series X\n- Series X holds 60 well but has more slight dips than PS5 probably due to higher settings\n- PS5 version clearly not tapping into the increased I/O bandwidth\n\nSounds like a crappy patch. Hope it gets fixed\n\nLoading Times:\n\n\n\nEDIT\n\nFramerate stats from VG Tech, who also counted the same resolutions as DF does and notes the same missing effects on PS5 version.\n\n\n\nPlatforms\nPS5\nXbox Series X\nXbox Series S\n\n\nFrame Amounts\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGame Frames\n20510\n20468\n20492\n\n\nVideo Frames\n20510\n20510\n20510\n\n\nFrame Tearing Statistics\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal Torn Frames\n0\n0\n0\n\n\nLowest Torn Line\n-\n-\n-\n\n\nFrame Height\n2160\n2160\n1080\n\n\nFrame Time Statistics\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMean Frame Time\n16.67ms\n16.7ms\n16.68ms\n\n\nMedian Frame Time\n16.67ms\n16.67ms\n16.67ms\n\n\nMaximum Frame Time\n16.67ms\n33.33ms\n33.33ms\n\n\nMinimum Frame Time\n16.67ms\n16.67ms\n16.67ms\n\n\n95th Percentile Frame Time\n16.67ms\n16.67ms\n16.67ms\n\n\n99th Percentile Frame Time\n16.67ms\n16.67ms\n16.67ms\n\n\nFrame Rate Statistics\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMean Frame Rate\n60fps\n59.88fps\n59.95fps\n\n\nMedian Frame Rate\n60fps\n60fps\n60fps\n\n\nMaximum Frame Rate\n60fps\n60fps\n60fps\n\n\nMinimum Frame Rate\n60fps\n50fps\n57fps\n\n\n5th Percentile Frame Rate\n60fps\n60fps\n60fps\n\n\n1st Percentile Frame Rate\n60fps\n57fps\n59fps\n\n\nFrame Time Counts\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n16.67ms\n20510 (100%)\n20426 (99.79%)\n20474 (99.91%)\n\n\n33.33ms\n0 (0%)\n42 (0.21%)\n18 (0.09%)\n\n\nOther\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDropped Frames\n0\n0\n0\n\n\nRunt Frames\n0\n0\n0\n\n\nRunt Frame Thresholds\n20 rows\n20 rows\n20 rows\n\n\n\n----------------------------------------------------\n\nEDIT 2\n\n\nUbisoft said that they are aware of issues on PS5\n\nhttps://forums.ubisoft.com/showthread.php/2317891-The-division-2-update-1-30-PS5-problem?p=15338284&viewfull=1#post15338284\n\n\nFrom Ubi forum:\n\n\n\n---------------------------------------------\n\nEDIT Feb 23\n\nDF analyzed the updated patch on PS5 today\n\n\n\nDivision 2 Updated:\n- SSR and Volumetric fog are back after the initial upgrade broke them, now these are on same level as Series X\n- Load times are similar to before.
