Well, look on the bright side. At least Microsoft decided to go with Blu Ray. Imagine what would of happened if they tried to squeeze this on a paltry DVD.

 

[Dragon1893]

Like I said in the other thread, the 720p/30fps is understandable considering the amount of stuff that is going on, but they really need to hit that solid 30fps.
So reading this quote:

rather a chugging 20fps during the zombie action

is really disappointing. Not even a solid 30fps at 720p? This article reads like those about current gen games where the consoles are being pushed past breaking point, surely we can expect more from the new hardware? Let's just chalk it up to being a launch title.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

ok ...still ryse forza5 and titanfall..are good enough also just forza5 and ryse..and maybe just only ryse would be enouugh.....

what im saying ..the xb1 lineup is better than ps4..but also being better..is pretty much...meh.
1 year waiting is smart for most of ppl ...before buy a console

Whatever makes you feel better.

 

[thekenta]

Man, this looks horrible.

 

[1.21Gigawatts]

Some of the Youtube comments under DFs video are pretty hilarious:

Xbox's upscaler has always been really good ... this looks super sharp.

The game runs fine. DF is just trying to please the PS4 fanboys after their debacle with Battlefield 4. DF has no credibility anymore.

Oh, and DF forgot to put the Framrate analysis overlay thing in the second video, so most people won't even notic anything anyway.

The Dead Rising franchise has an history of poor framerate, at this point, the fanbase will be used to it.

It's going to be a LOOOOONG gen for you and Sage.

 

[codhand]

you mean is a problem of hw not performing enough? hahaah..pls man..just end it there ..720p 16 fps..is just a "i need to do better my job" problem

so blame the devs then?

 

[stryke]

you mean is a problem of hw not performing enough? hahaah..pls man..just end it there ..720p 16 fps..is just a "i need to do better my job" problem

yeah no, hardware is the problem, and part of a much bigger one too.

at launch ppl will get most of the time not optimized/rushed games...

HAHAHAHAHAHA.... Dude, please, stop.

 

[Y2Kev]

I continue to be disappointed by the games media when it comes to technology. Not only did we hear from many people that this was smooth (obviously they are insensitive to framerate difficulties) but the games media had many interviews with this team where technology was a big line of questioning and no one once questioned them on, "oh yeah we're 30 fps now don't worry."

This is amateur hour.

 

[Hindle]

GTAV running at 720P sub30fps was a masterful achievement on seven year old hardware.

GTAV, the same game with the same content, running at 720P sub 30fps on these new machines would be an inexcusable failure.

DR3 doesn't get a pass, no game should get a pass for running like dogshit on brand new hardware.

You're comparing DR to GTA lol. The engine that DR is built on is shit as previous games in the series have all had numerous issues.

It's going to be a LOOOOONG gen for you and Sage.

No love for Kayle? For shame...for shame.

 

[c0de]

Yes. At the end of the generation.

Throughout the whole genration...

 

[boredandlazy]

The game is a launch title that was obviously developed for the 360 before being ported to the XBO. Expectations for graphics have to be kept minimum. The game looks to be pure fun and nothing else.

What about games like Flower. Which actually were designed for PS3, but are making the jump from 720p/30fps to 1080p/60fps on PS4?

 

[rdrr gnr]

The Dead Rising franchise has an history of poor framerate, at this point, the fanbase will be used to it.

Why are you making this so hard for yourself?

 

[Wolfgang Jr]

Way to ruin an awesome game and franchise by rushing it out on shitty hardware you jerks.

 

[TheKayle]

yeah no, hardware is the problem, and part of a much bigger one too.

im waiting to see the first not 1080p title for the ps4..how many crow ppl will eat....

you know better than me that isnt a problem of hw here...

ppl are just enjoying the moment to put shit on xb1 as always

 

[Amused]

The game still looks fun, I wish it were on PS4.

Yup. Being able to play this at a stable framerate would have been great.

 

[Radec]

lol

I have never seen such low standard on a $500 console at this year.

My god.

 

[neptunes]

20fps? yikes!

I'd hate to think that this game maxes out the HW, but if so...

Nah this can't, can it? Ryse & Titanfall look better though..

 

[Cyberia]

Speaking to VideoGamer.com at E3, art director Alan Jarvie said:"Xbox One allows Dead Rising 3 to exist. The way Nick reacts to explosions, his animations, the amount of guns in the game. I don't think we could have achieved this on our own."

http://www.videogamer.com/xboxone/d...dnt_have_been_achieved_without_microsoft.html

Makes you wonder how much fps they've would achieved on their own lulz.

 

[fluffydelusions]

One of you gif magicians should look into this scene from training day. I feel it has potential for awesomeness

[TheKayle]

so blame the devs then?

sure..we should blame them hard....
and if i was a "boss" there...lots of head would be cutted....

 

[Amentallica]

I remember when games used to be about fun - not how many pixels or FPS any particular title can push around the screen.

25fps or 30fps - still looks like a lot of fun to me!

Sigh...

 

[codhand]

We're not talking about the PS4.

Are IW, Respawn, Ubisoft, and Capcom all failing to do their jobs? I dont get it.

 

[KidBeta]

Ememy counts are very CPU intentsive so it would probably run worse on the PS4.

Im going to be honest. Dead rising should be a franchise that leads on PC and gets ported to consoles. Its always been too ambitious for its own good on that front.

The thing is that with regards to that, it is usually the AI (from what i know) that eats all the CPU time. Dead rising has pretty simple (and rightly so for zombies) AI so it shouldn't really be a CPU problem.

 

[Black Mantis]

Disappointing, but I can live with it. Game still plays as DR games should, so will provide me with fun and is an improvement over the prequels.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Well, look on the bright side. At least Microsoft decided to go with Blu Ray. Imagine what would of happened if they tried to squeeze this on a paltry DVD.

I doubt they had a choice in that mater =p

 

[Windom Earle]

lol, brings back memories.

 

[Chance Hale]

Excuse after excuse

You X1 buyers must be getting tired by now.

The looks like garbage. This should not be acceptable in 2013.

I'm buying an Xbox One, remain excited for the launch, and can still recognize that this looks poor.

And it's a terrible shame that posting gifs with massive spoilers is somehow acceptable. I've seen the show personally but it's really not that old so it's incredibly rude.

 

[MDSLKTR]

The framerate is at dragons dogma levels on ps3... Let that sink in guys.

 

[GrizzleBoy]

Some of the best games of this gen have had framerate issues, the amount of gameplay in the game is what will count for the people who buy this game.

Indeed.

I don't think most gamers will refuse to buy a game if it drops frames as long as its a fun game (see GTAV), but its a shame it is what it is.

Still a launch game though, which was born as a 360 title. I'll start worrying when its November 2014 and the sequel built from the ground up with a years extra worth of time on the dev tools/drivers still runs at the same res/fps.

 

[Hindle]

Excuse after excuse

How is it an excuse?

DR isn't about graphics for the fanbase, it's about mayhem, and chaotic gameplay.

 

[T.O.P]

Getting tired of what?


DR has never been a graphical showcase game and never will, absolutely not saying that the frame rate drop are excusable or anything, because hell i'm pissed off about it too...

But i'll still buy this at launch because it looks like mad fun (and skipping a DR game for this is a huge NO), i'll have to put up with some issues but i'm positive the game will deliver under other aspects...

I'll get the graphic showcase from Forza 5 (and other from Ryse) if that's so important

 

[bud]

hindle... baby. please.

please no.

 

[boredandlazy]

sure..we should blame them hard....

And should any heads be cutted at Microsoft?

This is amateur hour.

That's sort of been the case with much of the reporting media wide in the run up to this new generation. It's been utterly disappointing and downright farcical. I think that's why so many of us are particularly frustrated with Gaming Journalism at the moment. Not to generalise and put all under one umbrella, but we've been shovelled and continue to be shovelled a lot of BS, misinformation, downplaying etc from a lot of different outlets.

It's why trust levels with the media, publishers, developers etc are so appreciably low right now. Especially concerning Microsoft and the Xbox One. Some of the articles that have come out regarding matters such as their initial DRM, those relating to hardware, performance differences, balance etc etc, are particularly damning when looking back.

 

[Platinum_D]

Yikes this is really dissappointing for a nextgen game to perform that bad

 

[Sykra]

How is it an excuse?

DR isn't about graphics for the fanbase, it's about mayhem, and chaotic gameplay.

Dat rationalization.

 

[Rainy Dog]

Looks very much like artificial sharpening is in play here again too.

EURGH.

look at the outline of the weapon. if this really is part of the internal scaling hardware and gamers have no control over whether it happens or not... I will not be a happy kitty.

Yeah, it's basically high-frequency ringing like edge-enhancement on poorly mastered DVD transfers to give a false impression of 'sharpness'. Same as what we saw on BF4.

 

[eso76]

wow.

those are current-gen bad.

jesus.

you guys seriously need to get your eyes checked.

this is the DR2 video posted earlier

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4wLgdmzHLM&feature=youtu.be&t=1m20s

some pics from DR and DR2.

This is what a current gen DR looks like and that's not taking into account the larger area with no load times, unified lighting etc.

For a game like DR, a sandbox where the # of zombies onscreen can vary greatly, and the havoc caused by your weapons and vehicles cannot be kept under control by the developers, framerate dips are always expected.

Either you have a game that barely uses the GPU in normal situations, so that you have enough spare power to handle more crowded moments, or you always push the console and accept the fact that framerate will drop when you have a lot is going on.

From all the recent videos we've seen , performances are just fine and they were until digital foundry put a number onscreen.

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

The Dead Rising franchise has an history of poor framerate, at this point, the fanbase will be used to it.

Yeah, but DR1 and even DR2 visually were beyond anything the PS2 and XBox original were capable of, so inconsistent frame rates were more acceptable I think. There are a lot of people who are complaining about the graphics and the frame rate is questionable at this point, so this will most likely disappoint even fans of the franchise.

 

[Ricky_R]

No love for Kayle? For shame...for shame.

haha didn't notice him until your reply. He seems even funnier.

 

[Nozem]

What about games like Flower. Which actually were designed for PS3, but are making the jump from 720p/30fps to 1080p/60fps on PS4?

Flower doesn't count because of reasons.

 

[highrider]

Ok, now I think this has to be a shtick, and a tired one at that.

 

[Impeccable]

im waiting to see the first not 1080p title for the ps4..how many crow ppl will eat....

you know better than me that isnt a problem of hw here...

ppl are just enjoying the moment to put shit on xb1 as always

Battlefield 4 isn't 1080p, holy shit where's the crow?!!

BF4 is already sub 1080p on PS4, but it's both

a. The exception, not the rule,

and

b. Still much more technically capable than the XB1 version.

Your statement is like saying 360 owners last gen should eat crow because Burnout Paradise ran better on PS3, despite it being one of just a handful of games that did ao.

 

[codhand]

And should any heads be cutted at Microsoft?

All the heads. Especially the head, heads.

 

[hwy_61]

Damn, what a disappointment. One thing I just can't tolerate is bad framerate. Looks like I'll be skipping out on this game. Sorry, Capcom Vancouver, I know you guys must've worked your asses off.
