    Little update after testing somethings I found a work around until it's fixed I went into ps4 settings and change video output to force 1080p and now runs much smoother and no loud fan/hardware seems running ps4 pro in 4k causes the issue

    This is happening to me too. I have a 1TB SSD in my pro and it idles high while a map is loading. I have it hooked up to a Samsung KS8500 4K TV, but it’s kind of annoying though as all my other pro supported games don’t do this running HDR, or a higher frame rate.

    It also has frame rate drops, and stuttering nearly every mp match I play. They need to fine tune this game for the pro a bit more.

  • same here. my ps4 sounds like a frikkin jet when i play the game. it's super annoying.

    This issue is already causing overheating hardware issues for some this needs to be acknowledged going on 2 weeks and no response that there even aware of it.

  • Same here with Overheating PS4 Pro, see my first Thred here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/PS4-Pro-Power-off-on-Starfighter-Assault/m-p/6425759#M823

    And my Video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFBpJaGwpTg&feature=youtu.be

    I sent my PS4 Pro to Sony for safety because my warranty was about to end. The console I have meanwhile back again, it could be found no problems.
    Unfortunately, the game is still not playable for owners of a PS4 Pro with 4k hardware.

    I understand a lot of things, even though a game is not 100% ready to go on the market, but even a month after release, a well-defined console hardware like the PS4 Pro is not properly supported, that's ...

  • same here when i was playing ot was ok until the loading screen came ps4 pro went berserk sounded like jet which lead me to google and here i am.
