Fair enough, I can see why people who have played it through on console/pc might not feel the need to buy it again, but I hope it sells well.
Good sales is what will make other developers/publishers pay attention and bring similar games across.
I know what you mean, but I personally won't pick it up if it's capped at 30fps. I really don't like 30fps shooters. The last one I played that didn't bother me so much was Killzone 2.
I'd take worse looking graphics over 30fps without hesitation.
Yeah I get you. Hopefully there'll be a demo (like on other consoles), if so I'll definitely give it a shot if it's 30fps.

Probably me. Too much of a sacrifice. Might pick it up when it's really cheap if it's 30.

"I'm not buying it if it's 30FPS!!" (Goes off and plays Destiny 2 at 30 FPS)
I'm super interested in how well it plays. This could be a huge game changer for Nintendo as 3rd parties will have less and less excuses if it can handle PS4 ports.

I'm not sure. Depends on everything else about the game. Gyro aiming, content, price, etc. I would like to have 60fps and I think that should be their priority, but I'll at least give the game a look if other things are included.
If 60fps i'll buy day one at full price, I promise.
If 30fps, i'll buy it a little down the line but will still get it. It'll be a hard pill to swallow considering I own the 60fps PS4 version and it's literally sub £10 everywhere, but I'll support the platform for more games like this on the system.

Doom is not Destiny. 30FPS would feel like a big downgrade from the Doom I know. It wont be the same game.

I'll buy it regardless but if it includes Doom 64..... I'll buy it hard!
Yeah, I've played Doom at 30 fps when I was trying to run it at 4K with non-garbage settings. It's not good. The game is made to be played at 60, so I really hope they made the sacrifices necessary to get there.

Don't forget to do your order of operations in math! Haha
Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally we were taught.
I think he meant (129 - 9) / 2 = 60.

I'll buy it even if it's just 30fps but if it's 60 I'll buy it twice
Exactly. It's like the Switch getting Call of Duty and it being 30fps. It just wouldn't feel right.
I can't see this game being 30fps though. It's gonna be 60 with compromises...Which is ok.
I've got a feeling they're gonna take the same route as the Rocket League devs where their core focus is the framerate first and foremost...

That makes sense but it shouldn't be acceptable for Destiny either.

Well I don't really like Destiny anyway so I have no interest in it regardless of the framerate.

I thought he was joking for sure but now am not sure...
Perhaps it shouldn't, but Destiny has been 30fps from the beginning. That's the way the game has been played and will be played by a vast number of people. The PC version throws a wrench in the works, but all console folks are going to be playing the game at 30fps even on the Xbox One X. So the NS version of Destiny being 30fps wouldn't be a thing.
Doom, on the other hand is 60fps everywhere and not being 60fps on the NS would feel like a downgrade for some people. I'd much rather they hit the graphics instead of the framerate when it comes to DOOM on the NS. I guess we'll see once previews come out, but I would understand players being upset if it was 30fps.
I'm back. So is the world a better place yet? Have all our questions been answered by Bethesda? Can I sleep well tonight knowing that I'm pre ordering my copy of doom on switch that runs at 60fps? Or are we still grasping on to straws and inventing nonsensical math formulas to predict the frame rate?

Ok, we'll be back tomorrow same doom time same doom channel
Yeah a little bit disappointed. I assumed it was going to be imminent.
Now for the mystery of when tomorrow. Similar time to today? Or can I hope that the likes of Eurogamer will have something up in the morning which is only a few hours away in their timezone.
Technically it's the 21st in just over an hour (20 mins in some European Countries) so is there a chance that we might still get some things leaking soon if the embargo is literally just the 21st as someone mentioned earlier...

my god, nacho cheese AND baked potatoes?!? the question is no longer 30 v 60, it is now whether they stack or average out, aka 90 v 45 FPS!
Are you the face that everyone's been studying for days? XD
If yes, I hope you found that funny. :lol
Is there an embargo on clarifying your expression?

Why can't someone just say the fucking embargo time. Embargoes are embargoed now?
Been for a while, yes.

Can't answer that, under NDAs.
That's probably the most annoying thing.
I'd be ok with not hearing anything for a month if we knew it was gonna be on x day at x time.
I can understand the logic with an embargo to release information, but I really can't understand the purpose of not being allowed to say when that information will be made public?!

It's a number between 1 and 60.
