FPS doesn't mean "frames per second" it means "fun per second."

30 funs < 60 funs. fuck this 30 fps bullshit!

 

[Marauder Shields]

I'd rather have 720p and 60 fps tbh.

I still couldn't tell the difference between 30 fps and 60 fps if my life depended on it.

Man I wish I was like this. I notice FPS a lot more than I do resolution when playing games.

 

[UltraGunner]

To all the people ragging on fps: try playing Quake 3 at less then 60 fps. I triple dog dare you.

 

[system11]

People are in fantasy land that a city-based GTA-style open world game with a ton of enemies using flashy super powers (as well as the player) that also happens to look like one of the best graphical showcases of the generation so far, is going to clock in at 1080p/60fps.

It's not a graphical showcase if it's 30fps, it's just a slow playing game built for screenshots.

 

[Exentryk]

Completely understandable for an open world game. I expect the same for FFXV and KH3.

 

[hesido]

This is me as well. Must be something wrong with us.

I'm almost sure you would notice if you knew what to look for. I can't imagine it being otherwise. But you should be glad you are like that, don't dig too much into 60fps, and live a happy life.

anybody know the context of this gif? why is mila so angry?

Is Infamous a twitch FPS? No, it's an open world TPS. 30fps is fine.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not, but I agree. I just can't play 30fps games anymore, I just can't. The sacrifices in controller response, smoothness of motion and clarity are just not worth it for nicer visuals. It's a shame that this is one more console generation that will be defined by the 30fps standard.

 

[Zakalwe]

People claiming they can't tell the difference between 60 and 30 fps are lying or haven't properly tested. The difference is as clear as night and day.

Do a test. Download the high bitrate 60fps video of Killzone's MP from the game's main site. Each it. Then watch something you know is locked at 30fps.

Now, if you're happy with 30fps that's one thing, and that's fine.

I just hope Destiny is 60fps...

Something about his jailed father I believe.

Even a video doesn't do the difference justice. Actually playing a game at 30fps vs 60fps makes the difference that much more pronounced, 60fps gives you much better control and as a result makes the gameplay more enjoyable.

The interviewer brought up her father in the interview, even though he had explicitly agreed not to beforehand. He kept going on about it until she snapped.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

They can do and achieve far more at 30fps, so 30fps is perfect for the kind of game they're making.

 

[lefantome]

Good graphics + 30fps

These game are perfectly playable with 30fps, I prefer better graphics, scenarios, physics than 60fps.

 

[Strike]

Fine with me.

 

[Zakalwe]

Absolutely. The responsiveness from 60fps and fluidity of gameplay is valid for every genre, not just shooters.

It just adds so much to the experience. I tried Enslaved on Xbox and the constant dips made combat feel clunky. On PC with 60fps locked with Vsync, the experience is entirely different. Responsive, smooth, and being able to see all details while in motion while particles are flying is quite a sight.

I guess if you're used to 30fps then it's easier to forgive it.

 

[Shadownet]

"I ain't even mad."

Seriously if it can keep at a constant 30fps with 1080p. I'll take it!

 

[wsoxfan1214]

Cancelled my ps4 preorder. Not even joking or trolling.

Let me assure you that no one gives a shit.

 

[Noisepurge]

30fps is fine, and these are launch titles. Amazing what they can already pull off.

Did you see those games that came later down the line for the PS2 and PS3?!

 

[boinx]

Expected.

oh okay

 

[Chinner]

can't wait for the inevitable hysteria over the lack of 60fps games this gen. does nobody ever learn from previous generations?

 

[GameAddict411]

Considering the awesome visuals i didn't expect any better, i just hope that it doesn't drop below 30 FPS.

 

[Always-honest]

Something about his jailed father I believe.

Lol...

[FairXchange]

After witnessing how beautiful games in 60fps and 30fps look on my PS4, I really don't care as long as the effects are turned up high and it aims for 1080p. Like I had a legit eyegasm playing COD Ghosts in 1080p.

 

[googleplex]

Weird I was under the impression that it was already known that this game was 1080p and 30fps. Are people really shocked?

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

Can one set the PS4 to play all games at 720 for better performance?
I don't trust SP's technical skills. Sure, ISS looks pretty, but so did Infamous 2 and that ran like shit at times, especially during the foggy sequences.

The game was in previous showings was reported to run at variable framrate from 30-60, all at 1080p. They're locking it at 30, so they can free up resources for more effects.

I will take 3 delayed games, no mp3 support, multiplayer paywall, and exclusive skin for 400 please.

The neon stuff looked freakin awesome tho. Good after-images havent been a thing since PS2 Shinobi.

Three games???

 

[Platinum_D]

This is fine

 

[terrier]

They dont know what they want, they ask for more performance yet dont realize they would have to pay much more than 400 dollars to get such a machine. And when the machine is too expensive the other complaints start to show up.

PLus some devs would still go after visual candy at 30fps instead of less detailed world at 60 fps so we would be in a similar situation.

 

[zoukka]

Good now let's hope it's locked!

 

[Some Nobody]

I can't really tell the difference between 30 fps and 60 fps. But the difference between 720p and 1080p is that weird effect on my videos that I can't stand, and that's unacceptable. Thanks Sucker Punch.

 

[DieH@rd]

We started with this this aliased, blurry, short draw distance mess...

...and we ended up with this

Yeah, bring it on. Game is gonna rock.

 

[LiquidSolid]

Weird I was under the impression that it was already known that this game was 1080p and 30fps. Are people really shocked?

They've always said that that's what they're aiming for, but at E3, they said the framerate was ~50fps. They've probably added a bunch of stuff since then, which pushed the framerate down to where they wanted it.

All the in game footage looks great and very smooth so I'm fine with it. I used to be an avid PC gamer but until a year or two I switched to ps3 so I can definitely tell frame rate drops and infamous 2 had many. I'd rather a locked 30. He'll GTA 5 on ps3 in my opinion can run horrendous during day time with cars on the street.

 

[mechphree]

Man I wish I was like this. I notice FPS a lot more than I do resolution when playing games.

Me it depends on what set up your running. If you got a 45 in + tv then you'll definitely notice 1080p from 720p. Butof your on a monitor the difference is vastly less. Like you I notice frame rate drops before anything, being also a PC gamer as we'll I can spot out drops easy.

 

[GrizzleBoy]

lawl.

Infamous failed to change the game.

Spoiler

Oh wait he was talking about knack.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

Yea, I remember that. What a dick. And she still looked sexy as hell storming away from that table.

 

[Gillian Seed]

Everyone and there 1080P. This would be much better at 720P and 60 FPS. Framerate>Resolution every time!

 

[nib95]

Expected I suppose for an open world sandbox type of game. Still, looks phenomenal.

neon powaahz

 

[Sendou]

So as it stands; no announced retail exclusive for PS4 supports 60FPS throughout the game? Pretty funny. Next-generation of gaming indeed.

30FPS might be okay if it wasn't such a fast-paced title. Then we also have to pray that 30FPS really means 30FPS and not 10FPS and up like with Dead Rising 3.

 

[Qassim]

lawl.

Poor Shahid is going to regret saying that

 

[Gbraga]

I wish we could choose between 1080p/30fps and 720p/60fps for most games.

Killzone?

 

[PedroPanache]

Game looks incredible. 1080p30 is much more preferable to 720p60; not that it's a choice between those two, but on AAA games for consoles, 30fps is fine. What would annoy me is if they shoot for amazing graphics at the expense of a rock solid 30fps. What next-gen needs to do is 30fps without the dips that many PS3/360 games suffered.

 

[Sendou]

Killzone?

I guess that's what they managed to achieve with the multiplayer? Singleplayer still is an unlocked pukefest.

Poor Shahid is going to regret saying that

He's the indie dude. There's no doubt in my mind that many indie games will achieve 1080p @ 60FPS.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Poor Shahid is going to regret saying that

how so? if he said 1080p AND 60fps ..... but he didn't he had them separately =p

 

[nib95]

lawl.

Context. What is it? He meant with respect to indie games.
