At least we know it will be well optimized for it
And for minimum PC specs i expected more wich means it's well optimized

 

[twinspectre]

I don't know, I own a Series S and this worries me.

 

[reksveks]

can we have a single thread please?

 

[Carmen Winstead]

Looking forward to an epic 10fps space adventure!

 

[Bernoulli]

can we have a single thread please?

They are different subjects that's why i did like this
Now there is no more new info coming out

 

[Brigandier]

PR Bullshit... Todd Howard doesn't play on Xbox at home he will have a top dog PC and monitor in a nice set up.

 

[SJRB]

We'll see.

 

[FunkMiller]

bullshit. It won’t even maintain30fps with everything on potato mode.

 

[Shiny Pepe]

 

[GHG]

Plot twist: Todd is playing it on a Series S himself to playtest it.

 

[Gudji]

Running nicely? Expect below 20 fps sections.

 

[killatopak]

I'll believe you when you show Series S gameplay.

 

[Pejo]

 

[BennyBlanco]

maybe it will run on a steam deck too then.

 

[AtomicStarving]

Todd Howard says he's mostly playing Starfield on an Xbox Series S

Yeah, PR BS right there.

 

[feynoob]

Not today Todd.

This is Phil doing this to todd

"Todd Howard says he's mostly playing Starfield on an Xbox Series S when he's playing at home (his kids hog the Series X). Says it's running nicely."

I don't understand these quotes. Todd, or anyone whose invested in making the game, isn't going to say - Yea, Stephen. It's a real downer. My kids are hogging the Series X and I've been forced to try and get by on the Series S where it's significantly downgraded from what I'm used to.

I'm sure it's still being optimized. I guess it's taking the word of someone who wouldn't actual say how it's running. There's been a few times where (marketing person) states they are playing on (which ever console) and its running great. Then it comes out and it's completely broken. Cyberpunk on Ps4/One come to mind

 

[Urban]

720p/30fps

I mean the guy is PC fanatics. This is Phil praising xss.

 

[StealthGoblin]

The CPU isn’t bad in the series S and with much lower resolution (it’s also not pushing things graphically, or with particles etc) then maybe the Series S will end up being more consistent in terms of performance.

 

[Impotaku]

Hey Todd...

 

[KingXtreme81]

At 480p, maybe

 

[Fbh]

Jesus Phil can't you send Todd a second Series X?

 

[Luipadre]

Presentation was impressive, the framerate wasnt

 

[Quantum253]

I wouldn't expect Todd, or anyone else on the Team to do anything less. It's like getting a product review from a sponsored infomercial. And to be fair, I wouldn't expect a marketing Team or product leader from any company to do anything else. That's why I don't get the point of the statement

 

[MarkMe2525]

720p/30fps

I think I would be ok with that. I have been playing a lot of ToTk on my 65" and it is absolutely serviceable.

They announced the new xss black 1tb storage. So having starfield promote that system is a huge bonus for them.

 

[Portugeezer]

30fps target should give them some leeway.

I understand that much. I'm getting at that no one would say the true state of how it ran and would leave the user to figure it out for themselves after launch. The point of "it runs great" is a pointless tweet since you'll never really know until you have it.
Also, I'd love to see a Starfield special edition console like Halo. (I love the space/NASA Theme)

 

[kyussman]

I'm guessing Skyrim PS3 levels of smooth.

 

[Rac3r]

lying like shit lmao

 

[RoboFu]

I never think twice about the series S as it’s not for me… why do you guys?

 

[FIREKNIGHT2029]

 

[adamsapple]

If it runs nice on Series S, only bodes well for SX.

cool.

 

[BrutalTruth_]

Probably 900p-1080p at 30 fps

 

[Gambit2483]

Getting flashbacks of Cyberpunk 2077 pre-release PR...

 

[Mister Wolf]

Well they are a first party studio so I'm not surprised.

 

[UnsanctionedBuffoonery]

 

[Captain Toad]

I'm sure, it just works. At least, to Todd Howard's definition of "works".

 

[K' Dash]

The only way I see this happening is with Xbox engineers swallowing that Bethesda code and shitting actually good, completely refactored code, 24 hrs a day.

 

[Stuart360]

To be fair they said 'surprisingly well'. After seeing how hard it is to run on PC, 10fps could be seen as surprisingly well for PS4 and XB1 lol

"It runs, surprisingly, well..."

 

[lmimmfn]

Let's be realistic, running is a far cry from "working" when it comes to Bethesdia (probably spelt that wrong lol)

I expect it to be junky as f@@k on realise

 

[Gambit2483]

Ah yes, There it is!

 

[Stuart360]

"It runs, surprisingly, well..."

Yeah exactly lol.

 

[feynoob]

You should have put all this kinda news in one thread though...

Anyways, this is non-news.. what was he gonna say? The game doesn't run well on the series S?

 

[vpance]

Yep. When they start using incredibly confident words like nicely and well, we know what that means.
