Pathetic, can't even do 60 FPS.

Stsonic2158d ago

Yeah a 2013 pc port which can't do 60fps on these is pathetic. I remember when everyone was demanding 1080/60 before the start of this gen and now the same people are clamoring for 4k/60 for ps5 lol. Good luck!

Obscure_Observer2158d ago (Edited 2158d ago )

Xbox One X can render Far Cry 5 at Native 4K 30fps. It´s clear that they didn´t even bother to optimize this game for the X

ZombieKiller2158d ago

Im pretty sure this is ubisoft being lazy.

dirkdady2158d ago

Uh did u see how much Xbox biz make up Ubisofts revenue? It's a fraction of the ps4s. Question is how much should they invest in these rerelease

It probably could but the remaster is of the console port of the game and not the PC port - as such, all the timings, physics and gameplay is most likely locked to 30 within the engine.

So it's not a case of 'it can't do it' but more a case of 'the engine and the original code wasn't designed for it'

Dirtnapstor2158d ago

The game looks and plays fantastic! I don't know why people get so hung up on 60fps

narsaku2159d ago

There is literally no good reason outside something scummy as to why this game would get a mid gen version and not get 4k on the X.

Is Sony throwing money quietly at devs to not update beyond their own platform for other platforms now?.. On top of locking 3rd party games as timed/permanent exclusives?

Either way I won 't support that or flat out crazy levels of lazy.

/waves as FC3 floats down the river.

Sm00thNinja2158d ago

Did you seriously accuse Sony of paying off developers FOR A REMASTER OF A LAST gen game to run identical on PS4? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds?

It's just a quick remaster why would Ubisoft pour resources into this to optimize the Xbox One X version.

81BX2158d ago

Why do you guys even feed into him? No one can prove either way. So why bother? Lol

Liqu1d2158d ago

Ah yes, the "Sony is bribing devs" claim. I remember you guys claiming Sony were paying off Bungie to hold back Destiny 2 on the One X, how did that work out? Take off the tinfoil hat and realise it's just a lazy remaster.

Bathyj2158d ago

Pfft, whatever. Like Sony cares what Xbox does. Just enjoy the best game you've gotten this year.

Neonridr2158d ago

pretty sure Far Cry 5 was better than this. I mean, at least try to troll properly dude.

Bathyj2158d ago

Pretty sure Farcry 3 is a better game than Farcry 5 but it's subjective so I'll give you that

nowitzki20042158d ago

Yes Sony is paying off these devs.. But not to make the Xbox One X look bad, but instead to keep people like you feeling like you have an actual purpose in life.

Profchaos2158d ago

Tin foil hat time?
Its probably because it's a very quick port of the pc version from memory the pc version didn't have 4k support out of the box.

When I played it on pc I only had 1080 monitors so happy to be corrected

stonecold32158d ago

Just like the. Xbox one holding ps4 back in the Multiplatform game this generation

cyber_daemonx2158d ago

Tbh the scorpio audience is so tiny the devs probably didnt want to waste resources. Accusing Sony of moneyhatting just makes you sound desperate fgs.

nowitzki20042158d ago

So basically what you are saying is the devs dont think the engagement rate on Xbox One X is good enough.. Had to word it in a way MS fans are used to.

cyber_daemonx2158d ago

Yeah pretty much lol. Thanks for the translation.

AmUnRa2158d ago (Edited 2158d ago )

Yeah shure narsako, its an conspiracy from Sony they are trowing money to keep the Xbox One X version to be on pare with the PS4Pro. Bad Sony, its not fair...😡

Ore is it that the instalbase of the PS4 Pro and the Xbox One X is to small to put in resources money and effort?

I think it is the last line....😉
By the way, i do not understand that 9 people agree with you, i really dont..

Pmsl. I guess M$ didn't pay for titan fall 1 to be console exclusive or SE for the 1 year exclusive of tomb raider huh?

SierraGuy2158d ago

Kinda like when Battlefield 1 became gimped via update on Pro in November 2016?

rainslacker2157d ago

Why would Sony throw money to get parity for a remaster? That's just silly.

It's lack of ambition on the devs/pubs part to try and do it. It's going to happen from time to time, its not some conspiracy.

Bathyj2158d ago

Who cares about that, What's with the crappy dead spot in the centre of the aiming? Was the original like that? I don't remember that.

PhantomTommy2158d ago

No it was never like that, let's not give them a reason not to fix it. A lot of people were complaining about it over on the Ubisoft forums and there are vids popping up on Youtube showing it too. The analog deadzone on PS4 is ridiculously big, don't know about Xbox. There are sound issues with some of the guns too -- the ak-47 playing the wrong sound when fired. It's insane to me that Ubisoft QA couldn't catch this yet it was apparent to me the moment the game handed me control, it feels like crap to play.

Bathyj2158d ago

Yeah I don't remember it. I remember it playing very well. This is a huge over sight. It ruins the game. It's like not including flipping the Y axis option.

Not playing it till it's patched Ubisoft

Profchaos2158d ago (Edited 2158d ago )

It's actually not bad for a free title bundled with a season pass.

Had I paid retail I'd be annoyed but I feel like I got my moneys worth

Mmmkay2158d ago

the season pass is not free. hwo can it be a free title?

Profchaos2158d ago

Because I brought the season pass only knowing about the actual dlc then this announcement was just a bonus to me

Neonridr2158d ago (Edited 2158d ago )

then how are Games with Gold or PS+ titles free?

Shineon2158d ago

Wow even mid range pc's from 2013 can hit 1080p 60fps bells and whistles included,thats better than 1440p 30fps and parred back visuals on these cpu challenged 8th gen consoles#worseconsolegenintheh istoryofgaming

GUTZnPAPERCUTZ2158d ago

What? Lol Meanwhile FC5 which looks a good bit better graphically runs at native 2160p with HDR on X, don't blame the hardware, since obviously a PC with the same specs as X in 2013 would run this game with ease at 1080p 60fps

Shineon2157d ago

But its 30fps the fluidness of 60fps transformers the gaming experience Im pretty sure it looks nice on on x and pro as well but this is an action packed game 60fps is butta
