So as the title implies, is there a noticeable difference in how apex plays between previous and current gen consoles?Managed to secure myself a ps5 this morning (finally!!!!!!) However It isn't being delivered until next week so just thought I ask the question to temper my expectations somewhat lol. 😛

@MandatoryIDtagFurther draw rendering (=distant stuff also gets rendered fully instead of washed out)Further draw detail (= stuff that’s not important gets shown (like ziplines))Tessellation seems to go further... kind of connects to both previous points (flat surfaces get more detail)You can see death from further...Probably more but too lazy and tired to think... this is on xbox tho... with PS5’s faster memory I’m also assuming faster imagery

@BaldWraithSimp Overrated! You also don’t move while you’re enjoying a fine meal, so why move when looting!

@MandatoryIDtag XBox good, PS bad

@Koochi-Q Still can't move while looting 😜

@MyName1sNotJohn I just have a regular ps4 so it's encouraging to know that there will be some noticeable difference. Thanks for the info. ^.^@XLnarrator Why don't you hop to the legends feedback section of the forum and write an in depth topic about how you would like wattson buffed? You're likely going to have a little more success than you are by trying to turn completely unrelated topics into wattson discussions, it's practically spam at this point lol.Maybe try the twitter too? You could get the devs attention if you make some real good suggestions.I agree that wattson could use a buff but this isn't the way to go about it lol. ^.^

Differences in Apex on current gen to previous?

@MandatoryIDtag I don’t think there’s a difference between the ps5 and ps4 pro graphics. Just the solid 60fps on the ps5. The devs said that the next gen version will come out sometime this year.

@MandatoryIDtag I went from an original ps4 to a ps5 and I can see a lot more. I now run higher FOV and am locked at 60 fps. For me the difference is a lot. I know someone who went from ps4 pro to ps5 and he feels the difference too.

@MandatoryIDtag If you were coming from a PS4 Pro then I think the graphics will be largely the same but you may notice some differences with things like draw difference as people said above. The Pro resolution for Apex was like 900p-1440p dynamic so with PS5 you should pretty much always be hitting 1440, and framerate should rarely if ever drop. On my Series X I have only seen frames drop with multiple ults at the same time, Crypto ult also can drop frames depending on distance. But 99% of the time should be constant 60fps. I came from Xbox One S so differences were night and day for me but if you came from PS4 Pro you will also have an enjoyable upgrade overall.
