the pc build shown yesterday was i7 4790,8gb,gtx 980 was running at HIGH settings at 30fps, ps4 version is also reprtedly 1080p30fps @ almost high.
the game is designed with 30fps in mind. you may run it on a monster pc , but for all purposes , this is essentially a 30fps game
also thats a $1000 setup at least so [email protected] for running the game at slightly better than console specs for more than twice the asking price.actually unless you get a good deal , the gfx car+processor alone is 1000+ bucks. thats without ram,monitor,keyboard,mouse,mot herboard,disc drive,HDD,modem,smps,controlle r to name a few
@V.S ill call it a '60fps game' when i see it running consistently at 60.like i said its possible but most gamers would end up doing high to ultra at 30. you might get it to 120fps at low settings and 480p but that doesnt make it a 120fps game. devs say its 30 . so say that to the devs.
I don't think that's how PC works, devs don't really decide fps in that market, it's you run what you can run. And I highly doubt that that kind of a pc would struggle with Witcher.
I prefer a game like this to be running on 30fps if that means it will be highly detailed and filled with NPC's and gorgeous lighting and all that, instead of having a 60fps game to boast about (which isn't even all that important in an RPG), while having to sacrifice on all kinds of stuff, like falling leafs, animations, shadows, whatever.
...Well, its an Action RPG. All actions games are infinitely better @60 FPS. Just saying...you know? Anything that requires reactions are better and more fun at higher FPS
Either way, 30FPS is grand and to be expected for big games like this on Consoles. Its no big deal, i'll be getting it on PC myself because I can. I'd be happy with the console version too though.
Edit - Haha, i'll give you an example...the witcher 2 was better at 60 than 30. So much more fluid and more important than the graphics were to me.
So is having one bubble, huh? Aw well, too bad you cant reply.
Would be great to have seen the game in 60fps, but with a smaller team and as stated numerous delays maybe they dont want to push the game back any longer. They are clearly a very talented bunch and I can live with 30fps on my £350 piece of kit :)
My personal opinion is that all "fanboys" are equally bad, in the end the only thing differentiating the various elitists (in some cases cultist would be more accurate) is what platform they choose.
Find me a post of mine where I use 'fanboy', 'Xbot' or any other derogatory word for some owning another system. Then find me a post of mine that attacks anyone personally. Then find me a post of mine that's in a thread about another platforms game. It should be easy considering I'm 'far worse'.
Dont judge all console alike. My Wii U has been doing a tremendous job, both supplying the games I want AND performance - running 60fps locked has been little to no problem. I'm sure however the self-proclaimed 'hardcore' will have a reason why sticking to 30fps is good for this particular game but had it been any Nintendo game doing likewise...
I'm not entirely sure why these are even news stories any more. Of course they stuck to 30FPS. That's an industry standard for graphically intensive games (and even many that aren't). And more to the point, we've been given absolutely no reason to believe that CPR wasn't targeting 30.
Well, many people did believe that games would run at 60fps on consoles this generation. I said at the start of this generation that most games would be 30fps on consoles and I was attacked and debubbled. Some people are slowly waking up to the reality, but there are still some people that think we are going to suddenly start getting many 60fps games on consoles as soon as developers "get more familiar with the hardware".
Yeah, that was never going to happen. Typically resolution doubles between generations but this generation (when we have had the mildest generation jump in hardware) developers are trying to not only double resolution, but framerate as well - an unprecedented high bar.
To their credit some developers are actually pulling it off, but it never has been a standard so the expectation that it will be is really strange.
Well, it's not exactly realistic for it to target 60 on consoles in any case. Only the PC is capable of doing that, and even the recommended specs on PC isn't guranteed 60 FPS. That's without Ubersampling as well, i believe, which is sure to bring any PC to its knees.
there is nothing wrong with 30 fps as long as there aren't any severe frame drops.. however most people would prefer 60 fps (like me) which is why I will play this on my pc. I feel like people here are trying to defend 30 fps too much, it's fine lots of games run at 30 even though 60 is better of course but thats what you get with consoles.
The first game with true next gen visuals and...guess what, "next gen" consoles aren't up to snuff. 30 FPS lol. Pathetic. I'll be playing it on the platform it was meant to be played, and the level of visual qualities the devs painstakingly designed to be experienced, and not a bastardized version of it.
Except it isn't. 45fps cannot sync with the 60Hz refresh rate of most HDTVs and monitors. This is because 45fps is not a factor of 60fps and would result in a non-stop judder due to the irregular frame intervals.
For stutter free gaming your only real options on a 60Hz display are 30fps or 60fps.
consoles are crap

I hope the game can maintain the 30 and not have it be 30fps some of the time
There's a lot of graphical effects that go on in battle scenarios
Not locked at 30 on PC i hope?
