Just Cause 3 Load Times and Frame Rate on PS4 Are Bloody Awful

This isn't the good news we wanted to write about Just Cause 3, but it's what we feel compelled to share: Just Cause 3's loading times are awful, and the game's frame rate is no better.

[Sonyslave3]

-___- so basically it Mad Max all over again how the weaker xbox one had the better performance while all the crazy explosion and stuff going.

[chrish1990]

Seems that way... Shame really. Decent enough game otherwise, but way too much motion blur for my liking.

[Ashlen]

You said in your article you hadn't even played the xbox version so how can you make that comment?

I've always been against review embargoes. I'm beginning to understand why it's needed.

[chrish1990]

Sorry should have clarified that: I've heard from a mate that it's not bad on Xbox, but as I can't tell just going off what one friend says, it's more fitting to say it "seems" that way rather than go all out and say "yeah, xbox is deffo better"

[Ashlen]

Whatever you say, nice cover up. You're full of it.

[chrish1990]

Why ask for an answer only to immediately refuse it? What is there to cover up? You might want to check your tin foil hat mate, because you're seeing "cover ups" where there aren't any...

[DARKKENT]

Ps4 and Xbox one are underpowered for what is needed this gen..if everybody is honest with themselves

Shame really but guess cost was the deciding factor when building these consoles

[Ashlen]

Because your answer was a load of BS. You wrote a trashy article to get clicks for your site and got caught up in your own words.

[G20WLY]

I don't understand. Yesterday I watched the Access team on YouTube plat the first hour on PS4.

It was the FIRST TIME the game has been shown running on PS4 and it looked great.

I'll wait for Digital Foundry for information on how a game performs on a given system rather than listing to some crappy attention seeking website.

[johndoe11211]

Sorry, "I heard from a mate" is a poor and lazy excuse. There are many xbox supporters who swear on their mothers graves that BLOPS 3 and Fallout 4 run better on xbox even though all professional tests show otherwise. That's why your excuse comes off as unprofessional and deceptive and you're getting all those disagrees. Don't take "a mate's" word for it, check it yourself.

[guyman]

What lousy Journalism.

[Hard8times]

Xposed

[Crimzon]

Sucks to see that the game runs so poorly but yeah, this isn't surprising at all when you look at the last PS4/XB1 game that these guys released. Given that they use the same engine, it's not at all unreasonable to put two and two together to reach a logical conclusion as to what's going on.

Shame really, but I think that DARKKENT hit the nail on the head. I'm certainly at the point now where I'm using my PS4 solely for the console exclusives, and getting what games that I can on PC instead. Seems to be the best way to go really, and it's nice to have the added security of knowing that all my games will still work when I buy brand new hardware.

[freshslicepizza]

do they even have patches before the game is released? anyways this game even if it runs crappy on the ps4 will get more patches. same thing with the pc version.

[omegaheat]

Man, these guys really go in defense mode when there's negative news about the PS4.

[PFFT]

johndoe11211

Cause they do i know this for a fact. And if you had both the PS4 and XB1 versions of those titles you'd know about it as well first hand. Rather than placing your faith on so called "professional tests" done by biased groups. ANYWAYS to the matters at hand, the PS4 isnt the only one with bad frames the XB1 also suffers from them.

[alvgamin4lif]

With or without the day one updates? Nowadays day one updates are like the backbone of of AAA games (there are exceptions where a game runs fine without the day one updates).

[Ezz2013]

"I heard from a mate"

This is amazing Journalism ...1000/10 JOTY
Would read again....DF should be ashamed of themself now.

[ChronoJoe]

To be fair, if he did 'hear from a mate' that person was probably inside the industry, but you should also note, that he didn't allow those subjective feelings to creep into the article submitted here. I think it seems like a fair assessment of the games performance from someone who had no intention to be biased in either direction.

Either way, I was happy with Mad Max's performance, and I do not care about the loading times. It's an open world game so loading times should be long, but they should also be infrequent, so it's no bother. I'm still excited for this game.

[Spotie]

Wait.

So, pffft, we should take YOUR word over that of a site that's professional because they're biased for showing the more powerful, more dev friendly console to have the better version of games, even though they showed the 360 versions to be better most of last gen?

Sounds legit.

[CuddlyREDRUM]

Journalism - You Are Doing It Wrong

[babadivad]

@Darkkent

That's so true about these consoles. Last gen they were ground breaking, at least at the beginning. 360 was the first GPU to have unified shaders. And the PS3 had the controversial but obviously powerful CELL processor. When I heard the specs of the new consoles, I was like "I really hope these leaks are a lie". Both of them have 2 year old LAPTOP gpus. They were coupled with super weak and slow laptop CPUs as well. And that was at the time of launch. I hope this gen is a lot shorter than last. Because they didn't start with the technical head start new consoles usually have. They started out WAY behind the technological curve. Not sure if this will get down voted or not but it doesn't make it any less true.

[kenwonobi]

So you two just pulled that out of things air when it clearly says no Xbox version played yet. Likely same issues.

[Ra3030]

I also have a friend that got a early copy of JC3 and he played the one Xbox One copy. He says the game freezes during load screens and when it does load it takes forever. He also says the frame rate bottoms out with lots happening on screen he says it would be a good game if they can fix the issues with a patch but if they can't or don't he says this game will struggle to sell when gamers discover how broken it is. He said it's by far the worst (broken) new game he's played on Xbox One. The good news for him he didn't pay for the game he runs a local gaming shop and they run a demo kiosk for pretty much all disk based games for the 3 consoles and he and a couple of his employees get first crack at the games before their release date and before they get put in the demo kiosk. He's said they won't run Just Cause 3 in the kiosk for X1 or PS4 its that broken and they won't recommend it to their custermers though he feels they will patch it and fix the load times and maybe not fix the frame rate drops but make them more stable.

[Killzoner99]

"You heard from a mate?" I have never seen such abysmal journalism in all my life. You come in here trashing the PS4 when you haven't even played the Xbone version? Hmm, I wonder what kind of fanboy you are? Now you get called out on it and you're back peddling. Just leave. I heard from a mate that you should quit game journalism and never type another word.

[Crimzon]

There are more articles and technical analyses of both console versions of the game appearing now and it looks like the author of this article was 100% correct, because the game is a technical mess.

A lot of the toxic fanboys in this comment section owe the author of this article an apology.

[Wallstreet37]

Dont you feel silly now about all that you said when Ps4 is clearly on top and load times across consoles are alike lol FPS is even better on PS4.

Smh the trolling is incredible. Now you feel like a ...

[Majin-vegeta]

Pls enlighten where it says the Xbone version is better in the article?.

[jmac53]

He "heard from his mate", which is my kind of journalism.

[UserNameIsNotTaken]

Yeah m8. His m8 is BEST SOURCE!

[boing1]

Weird. I didn't notice any performance issues in Mad Max on PS4. Really enjoyed it.

[InMyOpinion]

It's way better than it's made out to be. One of the better looking open world games this gen, and tons of fun to boot! Love it.

[NCAzrael]

I was going to say the same thing. There were some frame rate drops here and there, but nothing that makes the game unplayable. Not sure what people expect when they are running 3+ year old hardware in a locked down system. It does what it needs to, but neither console can perform miracles.

[showtimefolks]

Avalanche have been EXTREMELY slow patching up mad max so I am gonna wait before issues are fixed

Why can't more developers be like cd project red and at least communicate with their fanbase much better

[GTgamer]

So a guy writes a article shows no proof to his claims and we all get riled up even tho they are countless vids of the game on the PS4 and the game looked fine so imma wait for official confirmation of these issue's.

[Fin_The_Human]

This game is looking fun.

[ChronoJoe]

Wasn't really that different on Mad Max though, and honestly I wouldn't say the game performed that poorly overall. We'll have to see how this really is in some framerate analysis. I'm not going to be playing it if it's frequently dipping below 20, because I feel that will completely kill the action.

[CuddlyREDRUM]

Thanks for the reply, Sony.

[BallsEye]

It's not that xbox one is weaker in every way. Both consoles have their strengths and weaknesses. PS4 weakness is alpha effects and anisotropic filtering. Xbox one weakness is resolution.

[Corpser]

PC version it is

[Psychotica]

As usual..

[ShottyGibs]

95% of my game purchases have been PC this Gen. The consoles don't have the wow factor they did last Gen.
I'm tired of this new bare minimum 30fps standard

[mEATgrinder]

4 the gamers right? PS4 is now underdog

[The_BlackHeart__]

You know the developers are hiding the XB1 version because it is probably in worse conditions right?

[meche334]

@The_BlackHeart__ Not based off of what i read.

http://wccftech.com/first-j...

[iTechHeads]

Unlikely.
It's more likely the XB1 version performs even worse on Xbox One than it does on the PS4. It's Fallout 4 all over again.

[PistolsAtDawn]

Except DF had to redo their review of the game after they found out they were wrong..they and another site (I forgot the name) both ended up saying the X1 version WAS better....so I'm not sure what you are trying to say. There are plenty of games that perform better on X1. Unity, Syndicate, FO4, Mad Max, COD, Witcher 3 (the latest patch makes PS4 version 2-3 fps better in certain areas)...and others. I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make, but you actually ended up saying he's right.

[dantesparda]

@Sonyslave

Mad Max on the X1 doesnt run better/have a better framerate than the PS4 version. They are basically the same.

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[kenshiro100]

Wow, so hearsay is news now?

Journalism at it's best ladies and gentleman.

[FlameBaitGod]

Is "thegamescabin" synonym to lousy? Cant believe this got approved.

Chris just stay in the cabin and never come out please.

[MoveTheGlow]

Leftovers from the console wars of old aside, it's a real shame that Avalanche couldn't take a look at the game they were building and realize that optimization should take a huge priority over screenshots. JC3 has you moving really quickly through combining the grapple and the wingsuit, over a vivid, detailed set of islands with quite a bit of height to them. That motion at 60fps is brilliant. At 30 it's less so, and with drops every time there's action (in JC action usually involves stuff blowing up) it's even worse.

Check out Giant Bomb's Quick Look of this - they're running it on a beastly PC at a solid 60, and it's so nice to see it in action. I don't care what visual hits it would have to take on consoles, it should be optimized for that kind of fluidity first.

[Tech5]

Well the minimum system requirements is a HD 7870, which is 2.560 Tflops. ps4 is 1.84 Tflops. minimum requirements - http://store.steampowered.c...

[Sureshot]

I think we've already reached the point where both consoles and being stretched to the limit. we all saw this coming. Even the "far superior" ps4 is a (now) low to mid-range PC by comparison to the new gen gfx cards, ram, cpu etc.

[DarkOcelet]

For its asking price. I think the PS4 is pretty good and also it have and will have some neat exclusives.

[Mega24]

That's what a tablet CPU and a weak gpu will get yah. I don't really understand why they made the decision to use the weak a$$ hardware they chose.

[Seafort]

@Mega24

I do. Developers asked for more RAM so they got that but that came at a price of less power in CPU/GPUs.

If they'd added more RAM and better CPU/GPU combo people would have to pay much more than what they have done.

Probably around the £5-600 ($7-800) range for a new console with the upgraded components.

Would console gamers be will to pay that price for a proper "next gen" console? I think not.

[Germany7]

At least we can play Arkham Knight.

[yewles1]

Ironic considering PS4's GPU is a tuned down 7870 at 800MHz downclocked and 2 CU's turned off for yield.

[BLizardXD]

it'll be able to do the minimum once it reaches a stock 7870's 2.560 tflops.

[frostypants]

Well, that's why you scale stuff back. Also, a game that REQUIRES a 7870 to play on PC has something wrong with it. That is ridiculous for a minimum spec at this point.

[Eidolon]

Can't compare the two FLOP for FLOP, consoles have a bit more freedom during development, CPU/GPU are more intertwined and the architectures are more designed.. it's just going to take some API improvements and experience passed on.

[Rookie_Monster]

Very unfortunate to hear about frame rate issue for the PS4 version. Hopefully there is a day one patch for it. Looking forward to the PC version, should be fun.

[Aloy-Boyfriend]

Unacceptable!

Not buying

[DashArrivals]

You're going to take this pathetic journalist's word for it? SMH

[UKBULLET]

Sad news did the guy download the patch?... Glad I brought this for Xbox now.

[TheHunter81]

You brought it? Where did you bring it to?

[andibandit]

lmao

[killer_goat]

Why are you glad that you got the xbone version? For all you know it could be worse.

[PFFT]

Its the same not worse.

[dantesparda]

@UKBullet

Why, becuase you honestly think that the X1 version will be any better? If its better (and thats a big if) it'll still be framey, but we'll see once the comparisons are shown. And how many times have we heard this and then the X1 version turns out being even worst.

[Fastandslow]

Fuck i wish i didn't laugh at this but it was to quick burn m8

[DafunkyRebel]

lets wait for day patch first before we fan boy jump the game on a console. Although JC3 really should have been delayed for optimization if it really is that bad. Fallout 4 is a wreck right now with the poor frame rate and terrible lagging but its still great and fun so we'll about this game

[chrish1990]

It was tested with and without the patch.

[Gardenia]

I'm playing on PS4 and can say that I only had frame drop once or twice . The loading times however are pretty bad when playing challenges. Since you probably will fail most of them in the first try or want a better score, waiting 30 seconds to over a minute every time is not acceptable

[seanpitt23]

I have stopped playing fo4 until the frame rate gets patched. Hope it comes soon.

[wodan]

So this is the new trend? play the PS4 version then report the problem and make it seem like the X1 version is better even thought you have not played the X1 version like how chrish1990 got caught above.

[johndoe11211]

A lot of sites seem to be doing this now, then they get caught when DF and other sites do testing.

[OB1Biker]

haha yes thats been going on for a while tough XD
better laugh about it

[Heyxyz]

Uhhhh, well, still getting it...Luckily PS4 has Spotify, so the screens won't seem THAT long.

[Hasswell-NeverCold]

Now I'm not so surprised that PC requirements are also quite hefty. I guess it's not always roses and candy on consoles either.

Still, I was under an illusion that Avalanche studios was somewhat good at optimizing their games.

[FallenAngel1984]

Unless you actually played the Xbox One version and go really in depth between the performance qualities of both versions, there is really no need to single out only the PS4 version. It just looks really unprofessional. Especially when you only source about the Xbox One version is amounts to "I heard from a friend."

[FrostedFire]

I've had the game for three days now and I can confirm the frame rate drops till 15 and the loading times are annoying.I've also seen some dodgy textures but that might just be me.

[TKCMuzzer]

Is that with or without the patch that mine has just downloaded?

[FrostedFire]

With the patch

[blomman79]

no suprise there. openworld game often better fps on xbone. like mad max

[CernaML]

lol No.
Mad Max is like the only one with a better framerate on X1.

[uptownsoul]

"no suprise there. openworld game often better fps on xbone" -- What does Dying Light, Batman:Arkham Knight, GTA5, Saints Row 4, Amazing Spiderman 2, AC: Black Flag, Sleeping Dogs, AC: Syndicate & Fallout 4 have in common??? Answer: All are open world games & ALL have better Frame Rates on PS4!

[blomman79]

and the ac unity. gta 5 and the whitcher3 was for some month

[uptownsoul]

"no suprise there. openworld game often better fps on xbone" -- What does Dying Light, Batman:Arkham Knight, GTA5, Saints Row 4, Amazing Spiderman 2, AC: Black Flag, Sleeping Dogs, AC: Syndicate & Fallout 4 have in common??? Answer: All are open world games & ALL have better Frame Rates on PS4

[blomman79]

theck nx gamer on youtube. fallout4 runs better on xbone, i know the old games runs better on ps4, but things start to change

[uptownsoul]

@blomman79

"fallout4 runs better on xbone" -- "On balance though, PS4 is in the better shape as terms of consistency across the game; it has nothing close to the stuttering seen on Xbox One, and a better frame-rate in big towns and cities as well. Xbox One has a repeatable advantage in the Deathclaw battle, where effects clash heavily, but in most scenarios we get matching, or superior results on PS4.” http://www.eurogamer.net/ar... (Paragraph 12, sentence 4 & 5)

"i know the old games runs better on ps4, but things start to change" -- Wrong again: 6 open world multiplats released in 2015...2 open world 2015 multiplats have better frame rates on XB1 (Mad Max & Witcher 3)...4 open world 2015 multiplats have better frame rates on PS4 (Dying Light, Batman:Arkham Knight, AC: Syndicate & Fallout 4)

[TripleCs]

@uptownsoul

Actually, The Witcher 3 also has better frame rates on PS4 after patch 1.10 .

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[jay2]

Owning it, I disaagree they're not too bad, frame rates have its moments, but on 5 yr old hardware it's understanable

[corroios]

Better not talk about other version before. If the more powerfull version (console) runs bad the other version will... This is not the first time.

[Captain_Wormy]

LOL @Chrish1990 You got got, son.

[generic-user-name]

They've already said a patch is expected today, let's judge the game on release day.

[Pintheshadows]

I imagine it will get the typical day one patch as everything does nowadays.

Also, N4G is in a brave new place. I like the new design.

[guyman]

If that's the case, then it's the same on the xbox one. If that's even the case.

[jokerisalive]

I am sure there will be a day one patch or another one to sort this all out at some point. Lot of these premature articles claiming bad performance and then they get better thru a patch. People love to be the bearers of bleak news. Sony unlocking the 7th core should make these type of issues go away at some point I would think.

[TKCMuzzer]

Mine has just downloaded a 2 gig patch.

[TKCMuzzer]

Why is someone disagreeing with me? I stuck the disc in and it downloaded patch 1.01.

[chrish1990]

Personally, I detest being the bearer of bad news, but as it's sort of my job, I don't really have a choice. Also, the article was written after playing with and without the day one update.

[DashArrivals]

Oh you detest it do you? Give us all a break. You're a lousy fake journalist. You're what's part of the problem with gaming journalism these days. It's all gone to hell. I'm talking about the vast majority of it. Every ridiculous thing can be said about something and you hide it behind 'your opinion'. Makes me sick. WHERE ARE THE FACTS? WHERE IS A REAL SOURCE AND COMPARISON? You're a bum, plain and simple.

[chrish1990]

What crawled up your rectum this morning?

[mokkeyrg2]

no

[quaneylfc]

On the day i get the PS4 version too.

Shouldn't have cancelled my Xbox One version.

[TKCMuzzer]

A patch has just gone live thats about 2 gig, there seems to be quite a few fixes in the list.

[quaneylfc]

I've installed it, it is still very choppy. Every time an explosion goes off, Rico has an epeleptic fit.

Ignore the psychopaths above, the game is still fun but choppy is choppy and i don't care what brand of console it is playing on.

[TKCMuzzer]

Why disagree? It's a fact, I installed the patch.

[chrish1990]

@quaneylfc - there's no reasoning with these people. If a bad word is spoken about the beloved PS4, you're instantly an idiot who can't hold a controller without an IKEA guidebook.

[DarXyde]

Chrish1990,

I will neither agree nor disagree with you, but surely you understand that your journalism demands skepticism. You mentioned the PS4 frame rate and loading times are awful. That is an acceptable criticism. It's when you suggest "a friend of mine says..." that sends up the red flags.

I'll wait on it. Not because I don't necessarily believe you, but saying something like that is compromising to a journalist's integrity.

When substance surfaces that corroborates, the community can judge accordingly.

There's an obvious disconnect between you and the members here where communication has been lost. Keep this in mind going forward.

[quaneylfc]

I didn't disagree lol

I don't click that button, it promotes faux wrongness and makes me uncomfortable.

Just to prove, your "agree" will go up by one, and that will be me.

[suli5595]

dont be a fool, the patch just got released today, ive been playing this for 2 weeks now and honestly the loading times arent as serious as this guy says, its gonna be even much slower on xbox one since the ps4 is superior. Besides if youve played bloodborne and went through the loading times before the patch then you wont even feel the loading in this game

[quaneylfc]

The loading times are fine, the choppyness is ok too.

It's the online only stuff that is annoying, it keeps signing me out and offline mode is good until i pause the game and it tries to resign me in again.

[Orejillz]

I have about 8 hours in on the PS4, framerate hasn't given me any issues but the load times have been bad every now and then. It's pretty easy to stay alive so luckily I haven't had too much of a headache from them, but starting a mission one time left me waiting for 3 minutes. But quaneylfc hit the nail on the head with that online sign-in. Even picking offline mode doesn't help at all you have to take your whole console offline to play in peace.

[MultiConsoleGamer]

It's grass VS gameplay all over again.

[ZorinInc]

Games Cabin is abysmal.

[chrish1990]

*Exceptionally abysmal. Please, I try hard at being terrible, at least acknowledge how terrible I really am. Thanks.

[UNKLE]

Most of games for PC is shit port now ps4 fanboys crying because of a little fps loss? now maybe this time pc gamers get a real pc game jc3.

PS4 patch

Graphics and Animation
•Various LoD optimisations
•Various lighting optimisations
•Various animation optimisations
DOWNGRADE confirmed?

[Realms]

BS article do people learn wasn't Fallout 4 runing better on the X1 only to find out that they both ran just about the same. WOW click bait much no thanks I will wait and see more reviews from a reliable source before I make a judgement.

[KilluaX3]

Oh god the denial!

[Gamesgbkiller]

Played the game. It's real fun aside from the loading times. The patch for me, made it even worse. Sometimes I have to wait 5 minutes!. And the login time is really ridicules.

[MK24ever]

Game isn't supposed to have launched yet, so did you stopped to think that maybe, just maybe the servers aren't all running yet?

[chrish1990]

It's not an always online game. You can choose to not connect to the servers, and even then it's still not great.

[Gamesgbkiller]

What does the server has to do with the loading time ?
It's true that it takes time to login like 30 seconds or so. Other than that, nothing related. The strange thing even if you play offline and go to check the map, it ill automatically login to the server then you have to wait again.

[corroios]

The problem here is another game that goes to the market needing a day one patch.

On the other hand dont try to compare version when one of them runs at higher rez.

[Spoonsx]

No offense to the writer @Chris1990 but I thought this was a place for the readers to come decide their opinion on the articles written. I didn't know it was a place for the writer to come defend his writing over and over again.

I am being none biased about it as well being a PC gamer... just saying. To me it kinda takes the fun out of the debate when the writer comes in screaming his defense to what he wrote. If you had to come in and say all this stuff also then maybe it should have been added in the piece that you wrote. Just my opinion.

[MasterCornholio]

The author seems quite childish in my opinion. Hes exhibiting behavior typical of extremists in this website.

If he replied in a more mature manner then i could take him seriously but since he doesn't ......

[Kemo_Spear]

If I remember correctly, one can not post a story from their personal blog on this site. Is this not just the same thing? Yet it get approved. WFT is wrong with this picture? Shouldn't the mods have killed this "story" when it was in the approval section (which is also a joke)

On topic: I do not buy this story one iota. Is the "journalist" going to also do a story about the XB1 version of this game? If so (which I highly doubt), why not wait till you played the game on both systems and THEN write your "article"?

[DivineAssault]

Not a game of interest to me anyway.. Ill rent it if anything AFTER this problem is resolved.. Thats some crappy development if other current gen games dont have these issues..

[lpking2005]

I have the game on PS4 and i also had the same problems with low FPS and graphical glitches with the animations until i downloaded the day one patch.

Since then, the frame rate has been pretty smooth and runs alot better overall.

Load times definitely need work though!

[LoveSpuds]

I am playing thecgame on ps4 and its is fantastic, not frame rate issues so far. Loading times are fine, 10 seconds tops but they are a little frequent at first when setting out the tutorial missions.

This article is complete bullshit.

[LoveSpuds]

Loading times on challenges are a little extended but general gameplay is fine.

[MasterCornholio]

I think I'll wait for DFs analysis for some real answers.

[Sunny_D]

Seems like bad journalism. The author using his unverified mate's word to test it out. Pffft.

[ChiblackHwks]

OMG! and now...i can live with that. OK, Moving on

[mokkeyrg2]

AND THERES ME THINKING PS4 WAS 50% MORE POWERFUL then the xbox one hmmm

[thexmanone]

You could have all the power in the world but that don`t mean nothing if developers don`t know how to use it.

[xX1NORM1Xx]

Fully agree the ps4 is more powerful that doesn't mean that the xbox is shit it's just a fact like a Lambo has a better engine than a Ford focus but that doesn't mean the focus is shit (actually my favorite car) also have you noticed the graphical difference between halo 3 and halo 4 or uncharted 1 and uncharted 3 it's because over time developers get more comfortable with the hardware and they understand the limits better so they can squeeze more out of it

[xX1NORM1Xx]

I honestly cannot believe these comments he never included in the article that he heard from his mate that the xbox one version isn't as bad because he doesn't have first hand experience with it he said seems that way in his comment not absolutely 100% fact because his friend might not be doing tests like he is they might just be playing how they want

[marioJP87]

Better unlock PS4's 7th core ... lmao

[_LarZen_]

Yeah, it did miracles for the XBO. Oh wait...

[marioJP87]

I know but shhhh, the PS4 fanboys wont believe this.

[Pixelart]

Better just pray next Gen consoles don't get a weak ass 1.6ghz tablet CPU again. You could have 16 cores and the frame rate is still going be the same. You need higher clock cycles.

[marioJP87]

Lmaooooo. For real dude.

[richyque]

U WOT M8!

[ShadowWolf712]

Framerate seems pretty stable here...

https://youtu.be/q2PoCchBzY...

[HOOHAARR]

In another 20 minute video they fly from one end of the map to the other, blowing stuff up on the way and I never noticed the framerate drop once!

[Walter_Official]

Can we all just wait till launch to see for ourselves.

[Maxor]

Weird. This game runs silky smooth on the PC with hardly any load time. 1080p 60 FPS all day. Maybe they're running the unpatched version?

[spoonard]

This video is contrary to everything you said about framerates:

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[benji101]

OK. there is slow down everytime anything explodes. You are porbably just used to it.

Honestly, the frame rate has been fine and I am having so much fun, its a great game. I do think the loadtimes are a little excessive if you want to retry challenges as rather than a quick restart it appears it is reloading the whole map again.

Its certainly not enough to spoil the fun though.

More food for the xbox fanboys, and they'll lap it up as usual. The smear campaign goes on at N4G what a shame but not a surprise. Whatever it takes to sell xbones I guess.

Smear campaign?

No poor journalism .

Heck if even updated to say they THINK the Xbox one will have same issues yet they haven't played it.

Besides plenty on here saying it's working good for them.
No smear campaign, remove the tinfoil hat...its poor journalism at its finest.

But...if it was / is true,...then surely it is worth reporting??
After all d.f makes a living out of it.

Smearcampaigns are usually full of poor journalism.

Open world games a weak tablet CPU's simply do not mix. This is the result every time.

[SpinalRemains138]

Very odd. The architecture is SOP for game development.

Something's rotten in Denmark.

Hm,

I am enjoying Fallout 4 yet it has frame rate issues and a lot of (and long) loading screens/time.

Game still gets a 9/10 from most sites..

lololol

[thricetold]

I have no intentions of giving this site a hit, but is there any video proof on the page? Is there anything other than " a friend told me" pertaining to the x1? Why not wait until both have been tried out? What was the point?

Look at how they went for the bait.

Both consoles are weak. It's just a fact. You guys are fighting whether a small Nissan or Toyota can get to 80mph.
