Resident Evil 3 Update Drops Resolution On Xbox One X, Now Locked 60 FPS

Resident Evil 3 has been updated on the Xbox One. This has led to Capcom dropping the resolution on the game and improved the frame rate for Xbox One X.

I don't know if the trade was worth it. Yes, it runs at more or less locked 60 fps. But RE3 is not really a action focused game, so those extra fps while made the game more fluid don't have a big impact as far as gamaplay goes.

The ideal would be to let the player choose what the game should prioritize.

[Felix_Argyle_Catbro]

Every game feels better at 60fps.

[Vits]

Sure if there is not compromise on anything else. That is not the case here.

[TK-66]

@Vits

The entire idea of owning a game console is that you accept a compromise somewhere.

[Computersaysno]

This game under load situations was dipping way down to as low as 35FPS when in shooting sections. As in THE EXACT TIME when you want a consistent fluid response to the controls and aiming. 2:03 in the above video.

Now it has gone down to a 2880×1620 (just over half of native 4K) resolution the console can cope with you get a near locked or locked 60FPS. Much better. That's a reasonable compromise.

If you want a no compromise version then you better sort out a good PC hadn't you? It's the only platform that can do it all.

@TK-66

only consoles?? so all PCs have the ability to play ALL games with uncompromised performance? gee I guess my PC vendor lied to me then because I have to tweak my settings to achieve stable high fps on my PC.

[Neonridr]

@badz149 - get a stronger PC then. I have an 8700K + 1080ti and on my 1440p monitor I can run games at max settings and still achieve 144fps. Obviously if you have a potato for a PC then there's no surprise.

[Babadook7]

Apparently the Pro still is the more stable and better of the two mid gen platforms. But this is still great for one x users.

[TK-66]

@badz149

Nope. Are you just completely incapable of reading? Where did I say "only consoles"? The only compromise on PC is what you personally decide it should be. Console you have zero choice. There is always a compromise somewhere. Too difficult to understand buttercup?

Now, are you able to get past me saying something negative about whatever piece of plastic you feel most attached to, or you going to continue being illiterate?

[Profchaos]

Not always GTA games feel better at 30 frames to me because it makes it feel movie like while at 60 its way to smooth and somehow things look like they don't go together just right.

Plenty of games like that while I always enjoy shooters at high frame rates some games need to maintain a cinematic nature as the assets clip or don't gel together right at high frames when colliding

"I don't know if the trade was worth it."

Performance over resolution always!

[Ricegum]

Shouldn't the Xbox One X be capable of both?

[BLizardXD]

@ Ricegum
"Shouldn't the Xbox One X be capable of both?"

where does it say that on it's advertising?????
https://www.xbox.com/en-US/...
the console supports 4k gaming. 60 fps and options depends on each game.

[Obscure_Observer]

@Ricegum

"Shouldn't the Xbox One X be capable of both?"

You already have your answer, you just don´t know yet. Here, let help you figure it out.

Will the PS5 be able to run Godfall at 4K/60fps? The devs won´t tell, so I ask you:

Shouldn't the PS5 be capable of both?

Your answer is my answer. :)

[carmelo43]

The xbox should be doing 4k 60 as your PR said uncompermized 4k remember lol

[timotim]

@Rice

It is. The resolution is still higher than the PS4 Pro and it runs at pretty much a locked 60...is that not both in comparison?

[SegaGamer]

I would always drop a tiny bit of visual quality if it means I can get 60fps.

[DarXyde]

Frame rate >>> resolution.

[hiawa23]

I agree

[dreamed]

Not an action focused game....half the review bombs are coz it is???

[dreamed]

Also apparently the best mode is nightmare which is locked behind completing hardcore mode first...I’m in the hospital on hardcore now....urgh the beta hunters are more dangerous than nemesis....he’s easy to avoid...but the beta hunters!!!!...ahhhhhhh!!!!

[Gaming101]

The dodge and aiming mechanics require extremely precise timing, something that will screw up with large dips in framerate form 60-35 FPS.
Have you even played the game?

[blackblades]

Should be options

[MetroidFREAK21]

Good. Haven't played it yet, but frame rate > resolution

[Father__Merrin]

It's best with an option tbh.

[eamonn79]

Does it make longer? 🙈

[Battlestar23]

It's as long as the original so don't see the problem.

[eamonn79]

Literally finished it in a day, come on Capcom don’t drop the ball

[badz149]

unfortunately they already did with this one

[ninja2ri]

Game was a giant scam. This thing should have been DLC to RE2. It wasnt worth the $60 for a 2 hour game.

[SegaGamer]

Call me cynical, but I personally think Resident Evil 3 Remake was so rushed and half assed because they wanted to force Resistance onto people. It feels like Resistance is the game people are paying for, and Resident Evil 3 Remake is the add on

[Jon_Targaryen]

But... But.. But... The powa of da clowd....

[carmelo43]

Dont forget uncompermized 4k lmfao

[i3eyond the Circle]

Still gonna have to wait for a price drop. Glad they fixed it tho.

[Ricegum]

They dropped the resolution on the Xbox One X, that's not great for a console that touts 4K.

[Minute Man 721]

That's Capcom

[BiofourceGun]

"They dropped the resolution on the Xbox One X"

don't use the update problem solved.

[GamerRN]

@ricegum

I know it's terrible! Think about how the PS4Pro people feel with an even lower resolution!!

[Elda]

LOL!

[cbuc1125]

The only true 4k machine here folks...strutting its stuff! \s

[GamerRN]

I mean, you DO realize it's still better than PS4 Pro right?

[ocelot07]

Yet majority of people really don't care. You only have to look at the sales. Switch has been dominating both PlayStation and Xbox in sales for a long time now spite being much weaker system. The PlayStation has been murdering Xbox in sales ever since the X released.

Might look a touch better. But the majority just don't care lol.

[GamerRN]

Ironically they did when they had the advantage until the X came out... Funny how that changes when they lose power...

Kinda of like how this get all you guys can talk about is hard drive speed and sound processors lol

[JokerBoy422]

Even though it's running at the same resolution as the PS4 Pro now, the Xbox One X is still running that resolution with more post processing effects. Just look at the fences in game. No jaggies on Xbox One X, but the PS4 Pro has a lot of jaggies.

[JokerBoy422]

I've played both versions on both systems lol. No point in downvoting me as I speak the truth.

[Bigman4k]

I honestly don't care weather its true 4k or not

[dreamed]

I’ve got a base Xbox one and it’s not having the problems the x1x is having????

[xTheMercenary_]

That’s probably because it runs the game at a much lower resolution and is definitely downscaled to suit the performance of the OG XONE

[dreamed]

If nemesis was a cage fighter...he would get smashed to shit by a beta hunter....he just telegraphs his attacks too much

[Tedakin]

I'll take 60fps over 4k any day in any game.

[CertifiedGamer]

Is the new resolution 720P,1080P, or 1440P?

[GamerRN]

1600p

[Donnie81]

After how great dmc 5 looked and played at 4k 60 FPS this is kinda embarrassing for capcom. I would imagine dmc was a more demanding game as well with its great action sequences. This game obviously needed more time in the oven. About halfway through the game and it doesn’t really feel like a resident evil game without the puzzles. The few I’ve encountered are very basic

[Yosemite]

I have an Xbox One X and PS4PRO and claiming to have the worlds most powerful console and you have to drop resolution that's sad.

[OpenGL]

It's good they fixed this but it would be nice if they had an option for the old setting available, that way people can take advantage of it with the next Xbox.
