deadrising 3 PC "optimized" for 30 fps...

[Kiukaz]

30 FPS is for the console peasants !

[Recon-UK]

locked in 30 fps is just unacceptable, do you have any idea how horrible is that?? Always wonder why console player think it is acceptable and thus result in lazy or non-sense devs talking shit. Also we can lower the graphics a bit to increase our framerate, guess what, I can reach 30~40 fps + easily while lowering the shadow effect, and AA in Crysis 2007, even though it is only 768p. In a GT555m, 3 years old "mobile" gpu. Locked in 30 fps means you can do any higher than that no matter what you did to the graphics option. Even if you manage to unlock the cap, the game would probably slow down for some reasons if you didn't reach 60 fps constantly like any other shitty ports. 

There are plenty of PC games that run at 30FPS and they are popular titles.

 

Need for Speed the run being one i remember quite well, there is tweaks to the config to uncap it too.

That top picture looks like a cutscene. Also the fact that it's on the PS4 makes 30fps make sense, when it's on the PC it doesn't.

It's ingame :

I'm not saying that 30fps is great by any means.

But if a game pushes the visuals to a point where only 30fps are possible than it's ok even on PC.

Which is clearly not the case with Dead Rising 3.

yeah, I know, I've played those that are locked in 30 fps, absolutely terrible. How console gamers stand those will always be a mystery to me.

It is a mystery how it is terrible to you but fine to others.

Until I see recordings from a console that a consumer owns with that game running, I will not believe that the game looks like that.

[WolfDeville]

man dont say things like that! makes me well up inside. been waiting for it for so long!

Hate to say it bro but it's very possible...

its plausible, since it seems to be all corridors and very close environments, cracking up details with very short render distance is pretty easy

I don't really see the problem a constant 30fps is fine. It should look consistent at least and your eyes will get used to it very quickly.

Plenty of games ive played in the past have been locked at 30 (command and conquer springs to mind) and ive never had a problem.

The big deal is that it's restricting the PC version that's fully capable of running the game better than consoles.

[Guest Kloaked]

Double post. Dunno what happened there.

I understand that, but i don't think they are holding the frame rate back just because they can. The game is probably design specifically to run at tha certain frame rate - animations or timings etc tied down so if you do increase the frame rate you literally increase the speed that game runs at (thats how cnc generals works anyway). Besides its not like 30fps is unplayable it think most of the pc community is overreacting.

If your explanation is true, which I know that was in fact true for one of the NFS games, then it just means they have a very bad technical game design.

 

Why does it seem that Valve, Crytek, and DICE are the only ones capable of making a game that can get the most out of each platform it runs on...

 

I think it has to do with the fact that Valve, Crytek, and DICE all develop for PC as lead platform and then scale down to the consoles whereas a lot of developers develop for consoles as lead then try to scale up to PC which just screws everything up. It's always easier to scale down than it is to scale up.

Irrational Games did a great job with Bioshock Infinite.  Optimization was damn good.

[chilicheeseburger]

I've only played DR2 but I don't think more FPS are essential for Dead Rising.

Still nothing you should call optimized.

[TheNerdyCanadian]

I can't believe I used to think 30fps was acceptable when I was on console, lel.

end even then it was rarely actually 30fps

[RelentlessAF]

I'm sure they could make optimizations to increase the frame rate and it probably won't look like that on release. A lot of the time E3 demos are shown on PC. Like Forza, Call of Duty, or Watch_Dogs. I'm thinking they are just trying to justify limiting the actual work that goes into optimization so they can gloss over it. Just like Capcom and Dead Rising 3.

[Terminashunator]

Is it a problem to buy less games?

 

Would you rather have a 50 bad games or 5 good ones? 

Personally, I'd rather have 5 good ones.. 30 FPS is completely unacceptable on PC, especially since we have the hardware to run as fast as we want.

By less games, it ends up as one game. I only really play World of Warcraft, and even that is quite dull. I take frequent brakes from that game, too.

 

Last game I really enjoyed was Saints Row 4. I should play that game again.

[Rockmandash12]

Fuck you Capcom. - Sincerely, Me.

This is the reason why devs still think locked at 30 fps is "fine", because people just accepted it thinking it is "fine", or "not bad", opps, they are not "locked" at 30 fps, they are limited in 30 fps, which means there is a chance to drop below 30. I'm not the only one who think limited at 30 fps is terrible my friend.

what i noticed is that games nowadays have a lot of motion blurring on that masks the 30fps effects, maybe that's why those who game on console don't notice it. 

[shiftberry]

deadrising 4, optimized for 15 fps! Enjoy the next gen experience! 

 

fuck off seriously with these fake next gen lies!

[Michael McAllister]

Capcom showed footage of it uncapped.  Looks fine so far.
