We've actually added a 540p mode, so you can go below HD. We've also added a 15 fps framerate lock because when we were talking to the community some people were like: I'm actually happy playing 15 frames per second. We were like: that's actually really cool, we should support that. And to them go to them and say, oh, we've added that mode for youit's below our Rare certified min spec, but if you're enjoying the game, why should we as developers knock you for that?"

Lock me at 15fps if old

nocturnalis · Aug 30, 2017

...I guess.

Vashetti · Aug 30, 2017

Why would you willingly want that?

TheMightySkyChicken · Aug 30, 2017

I'll try it

LordKano · Aug 30, 2017

I'm actually happy playing 15 frames per second.

Damn Switch version is go! I kid I kid!

If no one talks and barely anyone cares about your game you gotta make your own press

CalamityPixel · Aug 30, 2017

Thanks Rare, I really needed this.

Too many pixels and frames make me feel sick

Bruno MB · Aug 30, 2017

A desperate attempt to make it into the news?

TheMagician · Aug 30, 2017

That's...weird.

what in the fuck

Cmerrill · Aug 30, 2017

Is this a joke?

Angelus Errare · Aug 30, 2017

cinematic framerate, nice!

I mean, players of Sea of Thieves. That's literally what this article tells you. Good on them for supporting however people want to play their games!

Buuut...I guess choice is...bad now?

Dark Cloud · Aug 30, 2017

What? Lol

broncobuster · Aug 30, 2017

Drop the resolution, add some fog, and you got a Nintendo 64 nostalgia mode going.

KingSnake · Aug 30, 2017

Rare going retro.

wapplew · Aug 30, 2017

Perfect for the Switch.

MetalliCabombination · Aug 30, 2017

What the hell lol who asked for this?
On the bright side my laptop should run this just fine now.

Blobbers · Aug 30, 2017

15 frames per eye. Just like any other console game

DKPOWPOW · Aug 30, 2017

Why?

I know they said "because of these people" but, really why? Why would you even listen to those fools?

Daffy Duck · Aug 30, 2017

Someone swallowed the whole "No such thing as bad PR" huh?

People with really shitty computers/laptops who still want to try the game.

Sjefen · Aug 30, 2017

what year is this?

kuYuri · Aug 30, 2017

Is preferring lower framerates and resolution a UK thing?

Jawbreaker · Aug 30, 2017

Err ... uh, options are nice, I guess?

dead monkey uk · Aug 30, 2017

540p and 15fps looks like buying a budget gaming laptop is going to finally pay off.

MrBS · Aug 30, 2017

Going to look great daisy chained from my RF adapter to VHS to my 24cm crt. Thanks Rare.

KingSnake · Aug 30, 2017

Can you play it on Facebook´?

luulubuu · Aug 30, 2017

I'm playing right now and I'm under NDA but you know what? Fuck it; have a gif about how it looks

Dark Cloud · Aug 30, 2017

Nintendo buying Rare back confirmed.

Xater · Aug 30, 2017

I guess it's the true Rare N64 experience?

spannicus · Aug 30, 2017

Atleast you got options

Rellik · Aug 30, 2017

What a waste of time and money.

Majmun · Aug 30, 2017

hilarious

Dunkley · Aug 30, 2017

Good. The human eye can't see more than 15 FPS anyway.

Kolx · Aug 30, 2017

More options isn't a bad thing for people eith weak pc.

Because you have 0 expectations from life.

paperlynx · Aug 30, 2017

Can we go lower please? I only play on 144p at 4fps

Ushojax · Aug 30, 2017

Probably for the same people who are happy using composite cables on their 4K TV. Ignorance is bliss.

gaming_noob · Aug 30, 2017

Human eye can't process anything faster than 24fps so a 9 frame dip is not a huge difference

Machina · Aug 30, 2017

April Fools was months ago

Its not even the cinematic framerate lol.

Machina said:

I was going to say April Fools is next year.

ethomaz · Aug 30, 2017

It is sad to see Rare still living in the past lol

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
