Kotaku - Smart Delivery turned out to be a pretty big deal


Recommended Posts

You have to have both games installed on ps5? lmfao what a unfinished POS console that thing turned out to be

 

When Microsoft started slipping the made-up phrase “Smart Delivery” into all of its Xbox Series X/S marketing last year, it seemed like just another pair of empty buzzwords. Surely all games would just simply work after you installed them on your expensive new hardware, whether they supported Microsoft’s catchphrase or not. Not quite!
The loot RPG’s next-gen version went live yesterday and turned out to be a massive headache for those looking to upgrade from PS4 to PS5. First, they had to make sure both versions of the game were downloaded and updated on the console. Then they had to migrate their save data over. Hours and dozens of GB of data later, they could delete the PS4 version and finally get to playing.

^that's so fucking retarded :D  Can you imagine having to DL both versions of a game so that you can transfer a save :mj: 

That's the difference between one company actually taking BC seriously... and the other half-assing and shoehorning it in as a reaction :reg:

Dear lord I didn't know PS5 sucked so much.

Sony was probably hoping all this shit would blow over quickly and because they had BC most devs wouldn't bother updating their games and instead focus on releasing new games... but covid fucked that plan up and devs are releasing updates of their recently released games.. and now all of their issues are being laid out.

 

MS hands down has the better BC and the better implementation design.

 

Sony will weather this storm and it will be old news soon enough though and the focus will be PS5 games.

The irony is BC games perform slightly better on PS5 than X, yet they load faster on X. Complete non sense result tbh.

Consoles are a fucking joke at this point. Forget about BC trash and cross gen shit, just buy your games on PC and enjoy infinite HD remasters and BC for free for the rest of your life.
