People who say "I don't wanna spend X amount of money" sound extremely entitled to me, because if they don't wanna spend money that's totally fine. Nobody is forcing anyone to do so. But you can not expect the premium while not willing to pay for it and it's basically a big F you to all those who did put down that money. Consider yourself being one of those people for a minute and you hear PS4 owners make these arguments.
I remember when the PS4 came out. I was in college and had no money to upgrade right away from my PS3. I understood that I would not have the same benefits as those PS4 users and never even thought of complaining about it, because that's how the world works.
Brilliantly said good sir. If you don't want to spend the extra money for a first class ticket that's fine you can fly coach, but we aren't grounding the plane because you don't have the same leg room.
I think for a lot of people it’s not that they don’t want to fly first class, it’s that there aren’t enough seats.
We just bought one last week for my father-in-law from ebay. They are out there, they just cost more than most are willing to spend. It's unfortunate, but it's not like you absolutely can't buy one, becasue you can.
But again it’s availability….yes “some” exist but there is clearly a distinct shortage that has been documented from the last almost 2 years. I don’t have the personal recollection from previous initial launches, but while there may be instances of short supply at a given location, there was never anything on a scale as there is today.
There is a big difference between going into 1 of any dozen brick + mortar places or their respective online retailer vs having to scour the internet, be first notice on releases/stocking, etc.
Lol "scour the internet"?
Just Googled "ps5 ebay" and boom I could have one here thursday for $695 + $20 shipping, in box, form a seller with 98.8% positive feedback, and backed by ebays money back guarantee. $200 over retail, I would hardly call that scouring.
That’s a 40% markup, for something that isn’t being exploited to its potential yet by your own admission.
You also have to factor in that a lot of players are from outside the US, so the already rare availability is even worse depending on where you live.
This is still not a good reason to hold back PS5 features. If some countries are suffering from lack of food... should we here not be able to access groceries?
WOW.

cN someonne explain what this actually means? I play on ps5 on a tv no less than 12 years old
Why would you get a PS5 and plug it into a TV that old? lol.
uh it plays fine? very superficial sounding of you but sure thanks for answering my question.. oh wait you didnt
It's actual not superficial -- it's a valid point. It's supercilious, to be sure.
It's a good question because much of what the ps5 can do that makes it a worthwhile purchase is only available if you have a good monitor/tv. If you don't, then it doesn't make much sense to get a ps5 since most games are being cross-developed.
If your reason is, I love Ratchet and Clank and Gran Turismo, then that's fair.
Otherwise, yes: time to upgrade.

Top 6th of my 3rd RS game aaaannnd, freeze off
Had 2 of them yesterday. Just amazing how absolutely dreadful this game is online. Fiber, monitor, router, ps5. Even tried to run on VPN but was getting disconnected. I can either play on VPN and get disconnected or play on fiber and get froze or matched up with laggy opponents. Good choices. The network people for this game are horrible. I watch streamers all the time and it is a different game.

Yeah the freezes are unacceptable, especially since it’s been an issues for years now
Luckily that was my only one yesterday. And since the update, the game plays so much more smooth for me. I can read and react to pitches now even on HOF
Hitting engine is still garbage but I’m lucky to say at least the game is playing way more smooth for me and only 1 freeze so far in about 10 online games. Still 1 too many

PS 4 users still being matched up with ps5 userss even after crossplay is turned off?
Huge disadvantage for ps4 usersWe don’t know ps5 users at at 120. There’s been zero confirmation from Sds on this and it’s not on the list of ps5 games that support 120. It’s most likely placebo effect from people posting on this forum. Why would sds abandon more than half their player base? Bad business if you ask me.
Not a placebo. It’s extremely noticeable. I am 100% playing at 120hz and can confirm it both on my display and from the input lag experience. Now it might be 60fps/120hz with duplication of frames, but I’m fine with that as long as I get the input lag reduction.

I didn't notice any difference yesterday to 120.

I'm starting think all your online issues are personal issues and not the games fault. If your PS5 is set to 120hz and your monitor is capable then you should notice a difference. If you don't, it's not the hardware.

thank you for an actual answer this time and some reasoning behind it. I mean im happy with my tv and went 100-23 last year on ranked so it hasnt caused me an issue. saving some money for an upgrade would be smart to do though so thank you for that input, looking quickly it seems any sort of monitor or TV is gonna cost around 800+ which a lot to spend on as a student for simply gaming
