Title: HDR Toggle on Console & Fan Speed
Post by: crows22 on September 18, 2018, 05:40:59 PM

Two issues that fall under tech issues I think,

First for the console versions could you add a HDR on/off switch to the in game settings rather than have to turn HDR on/off at the console level. Not all HDR displays are equal and some games can look better in SDR.

Secondly playing on a PS4 Pro if your on the main screen of the game with mission selection etc & were it randomly shows the characters, after only a minute the fans on the console ramp up to maximum speed.

This is very strange as the console fan speed is lower while in actual game, but on the menus it kicks into high gear, this is seemingly a common issue on some PS4 games.

Is it power draw or an uncapped frame rate on the menus ? I don't know but it would be really nice if you can address this as the sound from PS4's in full fan speed is quite annoying.

Thx.

Hi.

I've noticed the same on an Xbox One X so it may be the same issue.

I get this too. Idling on the opening menu cause the fan to go into overdrive. It apparently does it on the pc as well.

Yup, definitely the hottest running menu I've ever seen!
