Found some extra info via reddit: Horizon Zero Dawn, the PlayStation 4 exclusive game developed by Guerrilla Games, is still a bit far from release, but some lucky players already managed to get their hands on early copies of the game, revealing some additional details on the highly anticipated open world game. Reddit user Lordidude is among the lucky players who managed to get an early copy of Horizon Zero Dawn and has been revealing some new details on the game in the past few hours. The first thing he mentioned about the game is that it’s technically outstanding on the PlayStation 4 Pro, adding that performance is solid on the console, with the frame rate locked at 30 FPS. ""Locked 30 even on Pro. I didn’t notice any slowdowns though." "It was a 4k Toshiba without HDR. 30 were locked without any noticeable slowdowns. Controls are responsive, a little bit different but not overloaded and easy to learn." Lordidude also elaborated on the game’s sidequests, noting how they provide additional details on the game’s world. Sidequests are also pretty straightforward at the beginning of the game, which is to be expected. "I’ve found collectibles with story/lore and the good old villagers in need side quests. Sure there’s plenty more I don’t know of." "I have not played Witcher and haven’t seen enough to tell how repetitive side quests are or if they are at all. The quest by themselves are pretty straight forward, which is to expect in the beginning. There might be branching quests later. At least I hope so" The user also talked about the game’s challenge level, noting how Easy and Medium are pretty forgiving, with plenty of health herbs. "Medium and easy difficulty are quite forgiving. Health herbs are plenty." Lastly, it seems like stealth does play a rather important role in Horizon Zero Dawn, as it can even make boss battles a bit easier. "Yes it is. Although the boss battles differ since you can make it way easier with certain tactics."

Don't think it is mate. Out in 10 days though!!

*PC noob donkeyfucker. Get it right if you're going to troll me. I like to be different, i'm not fond of sheep Goo goo ga ga

I love that Steve. Reminds me a little of Orbital.

I must admit for an avid console fan i'm disappointed that it feels more like going towards a PC. Even I acknowledge that I liked a physical copy of a game, but if the base game needs an immediate download to help play it then my mind tells me in a few years to come it won't be supported and the game will be redundant. Hate thinking that way so i push it to the back of my mind but it is reality. I'm hoping that more games will be made for console that have an offline mode too or even better a local server support so it'll never go out of business. I'll be buying more consoles for sure. It's far better than having to feel I have to continuously upgrade a PC and regularly clean it as they all feckin eventually run slower #threadderail #awaitingPCmasterracebacklash

Ah. That may have been why I couldn't buy guns......

Can you guys send me an invite please? At least I now have an actual gun with actual bullets. Finally.

Is that all it is @phil bottle? You would have to be pretty patient I imagine.

I wasn't here when shoutbox was here. I do remember when it came up last time and most people said even though the idea is great it did stop posts being generated. If I'm honest, if this was an app my opinion is more of us would log in and chat. Notifications would help too direct to your phone as i know many aren't on PC, just like me right now. I dunno what others think?

Pretty sure we went 10-1 over the whole night. Back over 2500 now and we may have a chance to get @Diddums @Greboth and @Findmartin maybe to the Plat line before the season ends?

I will never EVER understand how you guys say shit like that. Also, @J4MES OX4D whilst I want to disagree with your Blackburn score, I'm not very hopeful. I'd rather swap this for 7 league wins to stay in the Championship.

Will probably pick this back up a day or two before Season 4 after this season finishes. Enough time to put some time in other games I should really try out.

Love LEDs, it must make some of your fish really shine in certain places. Loving the creativity Steve. Keep the progress and pics coming.

And how to do this is by......?

It's not got a great appeal @J4MES OX4D, I think I would re-look at Far Cry 4 co-op over this in my opinion.

Sorry guys, unexpected shit got in the way this last 10 days. If I can get the chance we could do Sat or Sun this week. Other than that, I'll look to put some calendar catch ups in over the next few weeks. I'll have to level up a bit first before I can start raiding comfortably I think.

How did the Beta go down for everyone? @jSyn66 I seen your video mate, looks pretty slick if you ask me.

We'll change the day to another day next week so we can get more if you want. What day is best next week?

Looking fab Steve. What lighting you thinking of using?

Works for me. When would be a good day where it would cross over with UK and US times?

Why the hell didn't you say so before! I would've looked into it by now. Happy to see what i can find this week If peeps see anything else that niggles them, please shout. This is here for all of us.

Yeah, it has a problem Dave. I'll have a look at it over the next few days.

Its the "I" button in the bar. It is abit unclear though so I'll see if I can do anything about it.

Had a little play today and it was good but not great which is to be expected in a beta. Smooth driving and I thought the UI seemed solid too. Seemed a little odd though how you couldn't hide straight away under cover and the drone seems good initially but it shouldn't be available to redeploy straight away from the character again. Feels a little like Far Cry with a little of the Division. Didn't feel a wow factor along the way unfortunately.
