Project cars was announced 1080p / 30 on both xb1 and ps4 last week.
Driveclub director - 1080p/30FPS is absolutely the best for our game

I stand corrected, my apologies BruiserBear.
It's funny how Wii U fans praised two 30fps racers (Sonic Transformed, NFS MWU) before Mario Kart and now 30fps is an unplayable slideshow for racers
This is total bullshit and you know it. Nintendo fans have been praising Nintendo for making most of its franchises run at 60 FPS to ensure the best gameplay for over 20 years.

I was promised 1080p/60 was going to be the norm this gen
No one promised this, come on now.
Like every fighting game, ever?
Why can't they get this right:
Q: Can I get my racing game to output 60 fps?
If the answer is "yes", then good on ya.
If the answer is "no", then make adjustments until 60 fps is viable.
Smooth framerate takes precedence over global illumination or whatever the hell it is in a racer.
Hype gone.

This was not the tradeoff here.
It's 1080p / 30FPS and goddamn incredible visuals
or
1080p / 60FPS with some severe downgrades to the visual fidelity they wanted to achieve.
I'm glad they are sticking to their vision.

Good enough for me as long as the frame rate is solid. All I'm hoping for now is the game controls well and doesn't have evolution's bullshit rubberband AI.
Can't wait to see more. This thread, and any other Driveclub thread will instantly go to shit though with frame rate talk, unfortunately. But this thread is about frame rate though, so i guess that is to be expected.

What? preorder cancelled if true(until I build a PC that is).

I played SART at 60fps. Like everyone else did on PC. The console versions of SART are shit.
Meanwhile nearly every fucking Nintendo game runs at 60. Mario Kart will be no different.
What point are you trying to make.

Yeah, you certainly have mind reading powers to know how everyone thinks. Good.
Link please? I missed this.

Will be an interesting to see how this works out, can't wait to try it, looks gorgeous. 30 FPS is not the end of the world, Forza Horizon was great with 30 FPS.
Yes but that was bizzare and thy were gods of gameplay. Who knows how this game will feel on the track, as that is ultimately what will make the game good. If it plays like pgr, forza or horizon I'm in.
It's funny reading all the back pedaling about 60fps. If forza 6 was announced at 30fps GAF would crash.
Since it would theoretically cost you nothing to download it (Except bandwidth. Which shouldn't matter unless you're capped.) there's no deal to break for at least trying it. Saying/doing such a thing doesn't speak well for your openness if you won't even try it. But like you said, it's your decision

I didn't expect you to have such a reaction to a little badgering? Does it hurt when someone makes a condescending remark about something you like?
Is this for real?

I want a cheat code ala Dreamcast's SEGA Rally where I could deactivate dusts and certain effects in exchange for silky smooth 60 fps
Okay, I've already been very wrong in this thread, but this seems impossible to me.
It's a Morpheus game even.

Maybe in replay mode or due to the benefit of time between the games.

Now this is just ridiculous.
Anyway, bring it. I hope GAF can form many clubs to make things even more interesting.
Like many already said, Horizon was 30 and was a fantastic game. I actually played a lot more of it than Forza 4 (but I played Forza 3 more than both put together).

Everyone else? I only played the WiiU version, and it was bad due to boats and planes, not due to FPS.

Fine? It was one of the best arcade racers of last gen, second only to PGR 3/4.
So good.
I hope this is a joke.
Cause wtf.
It's more responsive.

I believe it was 60.
So I'm just imagining Wii U GAF praising the fuck out of Sonic Transformed and NFS MWU when the system had no games? Whatever helps you sleep at night noob.
Probably the point that you can't read. I never said anything about the PC version of any game.

I would absolutely make a decision based on framerate. It just makes the game less appealing to me.
no problem.

This is really terrible news. Racing games really need to be 60 fps. I wish they would stop with trying to force every game to be 1080p at the expense of fps.

Don't see a problem need for speed Mist a wanted (2010. ) was 30 FPS and that gene was rad
It's really not, it's not an industry standard.
This game was always 30fps, long known.

I disagree, if the arcade game is built from the ground up for 30fps, then there is no [much] point demanding 60.
Sim games on the other hand... can easily become very hardcore. In a few days I will take a part in a organized pCARS race that lasts 1 hour. That's 1 hour wrestling with strong FF wheel (G27), on a complicated track with car that can easily slide off. Let's hope there will be no performance problems on my old PC.
Where did you dig that up? Officially they did not mention framerate in that reveal.

If this is true then PC version it is. Only GT7 and Forza 5/6 on consoles will meet/have met the criteria... damn.

what is the heavy asset of this game to not reach 60fps? maybe light effects?

Only thing my light google-fu turned up was that the WiiU version would be 720/30.

Are the visuals really considered to be the most important part of a racing game these days? How many frames of input lag are people willing to eat over that?
Apparently games are about graphics rather than gameplay now.

Man Polyphony has some extreme pressure upon them right now...i don't envy them.Really hope they have the technical power to take on the challenge of 1080p/60fps without sacrificing the visual density of the game.

He forgot to say that he was talking about indies.
Noob? Now you have stepped over the line.
No but really find me a post saying that it's okay that Sonic Transformed and NFS MWU run at 30FPS on Wii U. Except that you won't because you're full of shit. Even if you did it would be just some extra delusional Nintendo fan and it wouldn't count anyway because 30FPS is objectively shit for fast paced games like the one this topic is about and Sonic and NFS.
