The Frame Rate of Fallout 4 in Interiors is horrible [PS4]

Looking at the sniping video, the graphics are horrible. It honestly looks like a game stuck in 2008 with little improvements since, thanks to the awful Gamebryo engine. Maybe this will be the kick Bethesda needs to fucking build a new engine.

Ha good luck. Maybe iD Tech 6 for Fallout 5 if they feel like it.

I'm sorry but in that video you linked I couldn't notice any frame drops. Maybe its just the vid, or my eyes *shrug*

Game feel like a train wreck, watched the video and feels like ps3 skyrim all over again, imagine after a few hours of playing on how the performance will just decrease I kid you not. Also it looks like pants:

That ain't happening since they have a fanbase that keep making the excuses for them. "It's open world so it's ok, also it's just typical Bethesda jank, it's fine"

I doubt it, it will sell loads and they will continue using it unfortunately.

... they fixed Skyrim from completely broken and unplayable to a playable state. There's no way to pretend they didn't.

And how long did that take? Were the issues ever fully fixed?

I think reviewers mostly played on 360 last gen, this the high scores. If they pull the same nonsense again but on PS4 Bethesda truly is incompetent. Or their engine work at least :/.

With these technical issues and the simplification of gameplay systems Im not sure it will get great reviews. Sure the world atmosphere itself will probably be good but the rest?

We shall see tomorrow
 
What confuses me is that I understand the problems with the PS3 versions of Bethesda games. It was a lot more work to run the game on Cell. The PS4 is a lot easier to develop for.
 
I said I bought it on PC because of someone like yourself, the game was fucked up because of the developers. Had I bought it On PS3 like I planned too, I'd have been more let down and I would have had myself to blame giving me no qualm with your post. 360 got the best Skyrim experience until the many patches improved the PC version beyond that.

In regards to my PC, yep I spent a lot. Did I have the time to build one myself? No. I needed the five year warranty advertised, their support and a decent rig. I wasn't disappointed and feel as though I got my moneys worth. I still have one more year left on the warranty. Even so, I'm not a PC gamer. I own three PC games but when I took to the Bethesda support forums and when my main forum of gaming discussion was the old GameTrailers.com I was far from the only one and it definitely wasn't 99% of happy people at all. Even the guy who recommended I get it for PC had issues with his version too and if I remember rightly he used an Intel/Nivida rig which is entirely dissimilar to mine.

You got ripped hard on the PC, man. They took advantage of you.

Also, that's still purely anecdotal evidence. Of course when you go to discuss your issues with the game you'll find people with similar issues. That doesn't change the fact that the majority of players didn't have issues. The reception from both critics and users was great for the PC version of Skyrim. Hell, look at the Steam review margin.
 
Oh, you're right. It's a stupid response, but an equal response would be people coming in here saying "this game looks and runs like poop", which is not true. I'm not calling you out, just all the hyperbolic posters. It's okay for people to completely downplay this game and jump on the crap talk wagon, but apparently it's not okay to tell people they're unreasonable or wrong.
That's the thing; when it comes down to frame rate, some people are more sensitive to it than others. In that event, who are you to tell them they're being hyperbolic, when chances are the both of you are having different experiences? The simplest thing to do is to not call out people, and just relate your experience and opinion and keep it moving, but sadly most people get caught up on proving people wrong.
 
As someone who slogged through a lot of FO3 on PS3, this is dissapponting, but not unexpected.

I had lower standards back then, and when I tried to go back years later after becoming a PC gamer I just couldn't do it. The framerate was one thing, but it would just constantly crash. No bueno, bethesda.

It's difficult to tell who's joking, and who's being a pathetic, subservient fanboy who has to repeatedly fellate Bethesda because they can't take anyone criticizing their beloved vidyagame.

Or maybe I just don't really see anything that's an issue to me in those videos that will ruin my enjoyment of the game? I'm no fanboy of Bethesda but I enjoy their games and this one seems like it'll be no different.

Your comment is actually pretty harsh and insulting to people excited for the game. So what if they can't see issues in those vids. How does that bother you?
 
i KNEW Bettesda would betray PS4 fans, just like always. i noticed in some streams very bad antialiaising and framerate when others said its fine, but i knew it.. i just knew Bettesda would betray us. they always do, end of story. do not trust them.

we PS4 fans should support real devs like those who made The Order 1888 and Driveclup, absolutely beautiful games only possible on PS4. Fallout is laughable if you compare any jpg of gif you can find. this game should cost 8 dollars on PSN because thats how cheaply made it looks (to real gamers at least)

like i said i knew it but people wouldnt believe

No worse then the folks coming in to create an echo chamber saying "SEE ITS A PIECE OF A SHIT LOL BETHESDA FANBOYS FELLATING".

So sad, so angry those people are. I pity those people.

This basically...

I'm not defending Bethesda... it's seriously getting tiring that they're so myopic when it comes to their tech at this point. But at the same time,my favorite game of all time is OoT on the 64, so I've never been one to complain about framerate when I like the game itself.

Haven't played this though, obviously... so I could end up hating it.

Yup, was expecting better. I doubt it's as bad as Skyrim but if the framerates are effecting aiming? That's not good.

Videos don't look that bad to me. But everyone's tolerances differ, so I can see why some are upset at the FPS drops.

Hopefully it's something that gets patched.
 

jorma

is now taking requests
Watched the video in the OP fearing what i might see, and now i'm rolling my eyes so hard i fear i might strain them.

Preorder status: Not cancelled

Guess you didn't see stuff like "first world problems" and similar posts, eh? I'd say they're worse, because they're actively attempting to shoot down legitimate criticism, in favour of protecting their glorious corporations that care so much about their wellbeing.

If this gets worse when there's more action, I can see how this can become irritating or unplayable. That second video that was posted with the guy simply moving the camera around, looked pretty damn annoying. I hate stutter when I'm simply moving the camera around.

Ya I mean sure people can defend a games content or say the fps don't bother them but to some people like me this juddering, stuttering bullshit actually makes me dizzy and get headaches from it.
I wish I'd been warned more about the witcher. It's a mess and I couldn't play more than like 30 minutes at a time. All I heard was GOTY. So thanks op

People are acting like the bad framerate is acceptable, well what else is then? We already know that there are at least:

- shadows only showing for couple of meters in front
- pop-up
- clipping, especially in conversations
- long ass load times when entering/exiting buildings
- horrible animations
- companions teleporting / glitching
- player getting stuck in walls

And this is just by watching the Twitch streams today...(mostly PS4 version)

So...acceptable? Should the game pretty much crash on start-up for the issue to be not acceptable?

My comment is referring to the fanboys who take offense to any form of criticism. If that offends you, maybe reconsider some things.

Might have broken eyes if you don't notice it at those times.

I took another look, wasnt really watching closely the first time + low res.

Holy shit that would be annoying while playing. Those little stutters are far more annoying when you are in control. Def waiting for reviews on this now.

Also the RAM set up, that is not an area to overlook.

But yes, everything should roughly be identical with XB1, so if this nonsense kicks in on PS4 anyway then it's a bunch of shit. Worst that should happen is that it's a highly CPU dependent game and thus shows an occasional issue not on XB1 when a CPU dependent moment crops up.
