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

I think it's bad if you have to load a lot when entering / exiting buildings.

* wait 30 seconds *
Oh crap I forgot that thing inside
* wait 30 seconds *
Now let's get back out
* wait 30 seconds *

That's a great point and can see how that's going to be annoying for a game like this. I do wonder if reviewers would be critical of this, but I have my doubts though,

You guys are killing me with these Star Wars gifs, haha

I love me some Star Wars. Especially when the Jedi fight the Klingons over the Unobtainium in the James Cameron Transformer movie.

The best part is his username.

But this thread...

Weren't with Bloodbourne. Which could have had mutiple minute plus loading times depending on how frequently you died. Shit or any Bethesda game from last gen.

It's not like the bars high. Mgsv is the only game I played this year with low loading times and it was cross gen.

If this is somehow worse than F3 Goty edition on PS3, then, wow. That would be an amazing feat for Bethesda to surpass. I got myself through 70 hours through that before I had to stop because the framerate issues just became almost never ending.

This will probably be bad, but as long as it never gets near that bad, I'll be fine. It would be very nice to just play it at a constant solid 30FPS though.
70 hours? My God then it means maybe you were perfectly ok with it o_O

So just to recap afaik what's going on in this (fast moving) thread:

- Title of the thread makes people think the PS4 version (specifically) has major FPS issues inside buildings
- Video posted by OP showed some (minor for some, major for others) slow downs in about 3 instances
- Many argue they don't really see it, others that it is a major offense and that it looks horrible
- Another video is posted with a scope zoom that shows a major hit in fps
- Some deduce that if the PS4 version has serious technical problems, then the XB1 version must be fine and imply they are switching their pre-order (whether they are joking or not is left in the air)
- Some others freak out taking for granted that the XB1 version is superior (without evidence) and start accusing Bethesda of being paid off by MS to mess up the PS4 version (which may or may not eventually be patched). Again, whether THAT is a joke or not is left up in the air.
- Bethesda is generally ridiculed for releasing majorly glitched titles, specially on consoles, but overall on PC as well
- Some people report videos and player posts (on reddit and other places) where no problems are being mentioned on PS4



That about it, or did I forget anything major?

I played it. It's stable most of the time. I notice some minor drops here and there but nothing major. I think the game looks really really good most of the times. Especially the dynamic weather effects are breathtaking. Only interiors and some NPCs look mediocre and the draw distance isn't so hot.

Thanks. Appreciate the information. Still not sure if I am getting this day 1 since Tomb Raider is also out and I want that one pretty bad.

Definitely getting this game, just not sure if it is day 1 or a week or 2 from now.

Thanks for this. I read the first page and then came here looking for Xbox One info.

Fuck I'm reading 17 pages to find it

No mention of Star Wars at all. 1/10

As long as they don't fuck up Doom Bethesda are still my heroes. Having said that, this Fallout 4 stuff is inexcusable.

Doom looks like crap. It will only be partially saved by its multiplayer, just like Halo 5. Gone are the 15 hours+ campaigns in shooters, now you are lucky to get half of that. It's like no game designer played Perfect Dark on the N64, this game is still better than 99% of modern FPS games. Rare knew how to add meaningful content. It's pretty easy too, but devs and pubs know teens will buy or get their parents to buy the games regardless of their actual value.

Playing on PS4 and the drops are real. Had to defeat a small bandit camp within a dungeon instance and it nearly hit the single digit territory. It feels bad in every big fight. :(

In my opinion, this is yet another example of Microsoft paying off the publishers to provide inferior experiences on PlayStation consoles. The Xbox has sold poorly, and it quickly becoming irrelevant, so Microsoft are resorting to cheap tactics such as having PlayStation versions deliberately gimped in order to stay relevant in the eyes of consumers. Assassin's Creed Unity, The Witcher 3, and Resident Evil Revelations 2 are examples of this awful practice. I'm sure when you play this game on the Xbox One All In One Entertainment System, this game will be 1080p at a locked 30FPS, with mods available from the get go.

While I know MS/Sony paying developers to sabotage the other version of a game is bum-fuckingly stupid, I wouldn't be surprised if the XB1 version of the game was in a better state. I know there was something similar with Skyrim, where the PS3 version is still completely busted, but the 360 version was fine, because maybe they never bothered to test it on PS3 or something.

Ha ha ha! Thanks - my day wasn't looking that great, but you've turned things around!
