I downloaded the 1.3 patch, and while on call with my father for something else I was dicking around in the settings menu, looking at the manual. I was tapping stuff then noticed I stumbled upon the patch log. I looked through to see what was added in terms of content and how the balance was changed (as mentioned beforehand) but then I noticed the framerate was mentioned. I doubted it was 60fps but the visuals change to single player that was mentioned had me excited.
The call went on for a while so I opened a 4p game with bots to see what changed. IT WAS RUNNING AT A HIGHER FRAMERATE. But, as a downside the game does look worse (they definitely took an axe to the polygons).
I always thought people asking for a different framerate target were out of their minds.
