Console Version Graphics

I completely agree with you! In my bedroom I play on PS4 with a 32-inch TV, and reading the texts from bed is practically impossible for me! And that directly affects my gaming experience. I wish that at some point they include the PC function "UI Scale" but there are not even rumors about it. What could be more important than being able to read the texts of a game ?!

The problem with console is distant objects look blurry eg Myshuno City unless you zoom out with the camera.

Yeah I definitely love the graphics I was just curious I guess hahaha. Really like them since Seasons changed the lighting (I think) and bloom effects got fixed ^^

Everything on base consoles is set to "high" even the shadow and lighting setting is but with a tweak that allows interior sun shadows. It's a tweak you can do on pc too through the graphicsrules file. AA is set to low on both ps4 and xbox one. Simquality is at "high" as well and no uncompressed sim textures on them or the pro and X, they just have sims at "very high"
Nothing on the console versions is at ultra.

SimGuruLegacy says the console versions of the Sims 4 are set to ultra across both the PS4 and Xbox One.

Yes but they aren't though, close inspection through a comparison says otherwise and it is very easy to spot what the settings are. They are not ultra.

I definitely think the console version looks great. Its held my attention since I got it (especially after the virtual cursor update! ^ ^)

I also think TS2 holds up very well.

I need to correct my earlier post. I bought a 4k TV this morning, and even though I have just the regular PS4 console the graphics are definitely Ultra settings in game. I was quite surprised how much of a difference the TV made. The only thing I can think of besides going from 1040p to 4k is that the new TV is HDR compatible. The console now recognizes it.

This. I did the same, changed a 4K HDR TV, and the graphics changed beyond my imagination.

I don't have a HDR TV lol but it still looks great. I wish objects didn't disappear when the camera is up close. In Free Cam mode the objects don't disappear though so that is nice.

Might have changed in sharpness and color/brightness but it didn't magically change the game settings. I have compared it to the pc version on the same pc 4k monitor and it isn't ultra at all. Everything is at "high" but edgesmoothing is on low and they also did a tweak to allow for interior sun shadows at the "high" setting and it's easily spotted when comparing shadow resolution. It is close to ultra but not quite there, still looks good though.

I wish every game would do that lol
