Holy shit, this game stresses me out. So I should give up on being able to cook everything, right?
I know youtube isn't the place to judge framerates in videogames, but i watched a 20 minuten play session of the Switch version, and i didn't notice any framerate issues. If it would have hampered gameplay, surely i would have noticed. I haven't played it myself obviously.
Played it docked for about 10 levels with my wife. You can tell it's not as smooth as it could be, but it runs at a stable framerate, not 30fps though. You could tell a higher framerate would help with controlling the game.
Lol, I'm the one saying "served" but yeah my wife is also pretty into it, asking me to telle when this or this is finished.I didn't notice the frame drops last night. Played several hours with my girlfriend. She is hilariously competitive, and in campaign is screaming orders and delegating roles. She even shouts "service" when a plate is ready. Worth every penny for last night alone.
Taking it to work with a couple of extra pads today so we can play at lunchtime.
Finally got around to playing docked. I guess I don't need to say what's already been said... Tutorial stage is pretty awful, and the regular stages definitely drag a bit.
If my wife and I were playing she wouldn't notice at all, I can guarantee you that. So if you're worried about enjoying this with the casual gamer or non gamer if your life, don't sweat it. Maybe just skip the tutorial stage and show them how to play yourself.
It's not bad enough to regret the purchase or to turn away from the game, but the community definitely should stay on the devs asses for a performance patch.
Edit: I don't think the loading times are that bad. Maybe 15 seconds? 20?
Great game. Terrible port. Not only is the framerate pretty bad even docked, but the load times are just brutal.
Still, I love Overcooked, I couldn't resist. We're having a ton of fun regardless of the technical shortcomings and if a patch does make it soon I'll be really happy with the purchase.
Never played this on console, but was the load time so insanely long on PS4?
Ah so that's why I didn't notice it. I don't have a miniSD yet.I noticed a slight difference in loading times when I deleted it from the SD card and installed to the system memory. It is slightly faster in system memory.

£10 Switch tax over the PS4 special edition currently. No thanks Nintendo.
There's no tax, wtf ? It's the exact same price as game+dlc on every platform.
I almost held off because of the complaints about frame rate.
Played for maybe an hour and a half last night and totally forgot to look for issues. The fact that I didn't notice any is good enough for me.
People are complaining loadtimes here when it is just less than 10 seconds? Talking about hyperbole.

It's £7.99 for the special edition on psn at the moment.There's no tax, wtf ? It's the exact same price as game+dlc on every platform.

I wish I had someone to play this with . I'll probably only buy it when I go to my siblings' places for events.
I 100%ed the game on PS4.
How do I do this? Just delete it and remove the SD card and reDL it?

Maybe they're just really sensitive to loading times, don't be so judgemental/s
Ignoring it's on sale to make a bad point.
Nice.

Except that your first point infers that it's $10 more as far as MSRP goes. So, it does in fact, change the fact.Doesn't change the fact it is currently £10 cheaper elsewhere.
Nice.
Yeah, exactly that.
I was simply stating facts: "The load times are about 10 seconds to get into levels when loaded off the SD card." That's not hyperbole. That's an actual mathematic fact done by counting lol! Man I grew up through the PSX era, I don't think you can have a loading screen long enough to turn me off a game at this point in my life! EVERYTHING is better than that 1st gen CD era!
lol well done!

Hmm... held off on buying this for PS4 due to wanting the Switch to be my go-to multiplayer console, but doing so while the Switch version performs worse and costs more is a tough sell. Also I'm laughing at the splitting of hairs that the PSN price is only because it's on sale, lol come on. If I want it for that price right now, I can get it.
Gonna wait for, either, a Digital Foundry video showing that the framerate really isn't that bad, or a patch if the framerate actually is bad. Great that the devs already acknowledged the issue, but kind of sketchy to imply that they didn't notice it themselves until they "received reports" of it from the public. People mentioning that even their typically non-gaming partners noticed it makes me think a video game developer surely would?!?

Re-read what I said. I said it is £10 more currently! So no, it doesn't.
I was interested in this for Switch but at £10 more, no chance.
A game on launch costs more than a game on sale. Whoah. That's not the Switch tax.
If you want the best price, don't go with Switch. If you want a better price on Switch, wait for a sale.
We don't actually know it performs worse than on PS4. People on here have been mainly comparing it to PC. I'd be interested in a side by side PS4/Switch comparison.
The devs made a statement about it literally hours after the game released.
Literally like two people on NeoGAF said that, it proves nothing.
Also, the devs have underlined their commitment to console parity, and we still don't know whether or not the Switch version performs worse than the other console versions.
Huh? I never said or tried to imply the phrase "Switch tax."
I think what you're saying is you agree that a Digital Foundry video will help this conversation immensely. I'm with you on that.
However, I disagree with the idea that the statement being made hours after release means it makes any more sense for them to imply they didn't know about these (alleged) framerate issues beforehand. It's not like they didn't get to play the game themselves until today.
Anyone know what the resolution is? Is it running at 1080p? Can't seem to find any confirmation anywhere.
Because it's on sale, so there's no actual tax. I have to believe you're trolling at this point.Re-read what I said. I said it is £10 more currently! So no, it doesn't.
I was interested in this for Switch but at £10 more, for what looks to be an inferior version. No chance.
Yes, there is definitely Switch Tax (Gourmet Edition on XBO, which includes all the DLC, is cheaper than Special Edition
