I agree and disagree. So yes you're right. But you may be wrong. LOL Scam citizen allows a lot of things that Starfield does not. I wont poo poo the game because I am in day 1. I just think its shameful that NMS and SC allow you to fly anywhere and land your ship while it is reported that Starfield does not. So missing that sort of graphic heavy and cpu intense feature it better look better.
He rarely does this at the expense of X series consoles. I almost never see him dog them vs the PC like he does PS5/Switch. Typical Windows/MS PCMR by proxy fan.
Pc should always be the best place to play of you have the hardware. Ain't no changing that here. Did you have this mentality every generation that first party ip was 30 fps on console?
Totally valid points.
What? It's 30-ish.So Starfield would be running at 7.5 fps then.
I don't think it matters much if it is first or 3rd party, a taxing game is a taxing game. It's a matter of priorities in game design. Bethesda is not known for making the most performant games, but their games are technically impressive in terms of the world.
Yes, everyone knows PC can push consoles around. But first party games should be focused on the consoles first and foremost IMO.
Well, yeah that's PR for sure. I mean, that would be like saying the game can't run at 240fps, not because it's a hardware issue, but a creative choice. PC doesn't run games at 240fps because it's a hardware issue. That would mean it would never be a creative issue, but always a hardware issue.
So Starfield would be running at 7.5 fps then.
I know what a maxed out Star Citizen looks like, and I know how massive the game is with colonies, cities, ship customizations, outposts, weaponry, planetary travel, etc., etc.. All will being fully persistence living multiplayer universe.
Is anyone really happy with 30FPS?
After I upgraded my monitor to 4k I found I needed to VSync my frame rate to 30FPS. Without capping, the framerate would fluctuate between 30 and 40, but this fluctuation causes jerkyness, and keeping it to a stable 30 produces a much smoother experience. It’s fine when looking into the...forums.flightsimulator.com
Sure doesn't look like people find 30 fps attractive to me.
This is not about opinions... it is just facts. Object persistence doesn't mean your CPU is doing more work.. that's just not how it works. It does however mean you end up with larger save files than a game that doesn't have it. For reference, the average game has a save file size of around 2MB or less. Skyrim can have save files as big as 40MB... and in some cases even as big as 100MB+.
That's the problem, people won't watch the video. They would rather stick with their own misconceptions.

Game looks awesome, but yeah...some of the characters are PS3 characters.
Hmmm...not sure if I would hit that.
This is just semantics to me. I don't know what the issues, or why the need for what for lack of a better description, justs seems like damage control. The game is locked to 30fps. That is all well and good. Not the end of the world as long as its stable and runs well. The CPU in the XS consoles simply cannot handle it running at a higher fps reliably.
"How dare it look that good on the PS5 using actual RT and RTGI." "Something has to be amiss!"
Then what it is?
He also thanked Alex for pointing out a issue with the motion blur. But let's not let facts get in the way on hating on DF again.Dayum, Alex getting schooled by the tech director of the game himself.
You are saying a lot of nothing, what you are talking about is saves. I am talking about tracking the location of every item in the world with physics applied to all of them. The more objects that are being tracked and updated in the game world, the more CPU resources are required to keep track of them. This is true for large open world games and many objects that need to be tracked and updated at once. In this case they are building a universe type system across multiple planetary systems. That is why most games do not even attempt to do that, they just let things disappear or initialize back to their default baked state.
Simple... an optimized game isn't designed based on what you're seeing... it's designed based on what you might see.
Did I miss this being said in the direct? Not saying it's not true but I didn't know this
sigh... I tried I guess.
It did, but got even more just because Gotham Knights came around the same time and people panicked around 30 fps becoming standard again for next gen only games.
This is how it's always been with the engine they use. Which is why their save file size grows massive in time depending on what you are doing in that regards. Also why there is a higher change of bugs or glitches happening and/or memory leaks.
The majority of star systems are binary so the odds are if you are on a random planet, there will be more than one sun. All Stars are formed with partners, and the only time you end up with a singular star system (like ours) is when one star is ejected due to gravitational influence of other stellar bodies.
Yeah good point. I guess it was always a feature I never really thought about. I can take this level of depth at 30 fps. But man in these last few years I really do enjoy my 60 and 120fps modes.
They pulling some crazy shit with dat RDNA 1.5.
It has been remarked in the DF video, in the direct they talk about it when they mention the stacking of sandwich on a table.
And non-hardware accelerated ray tracing!
Not angry at the game at a. or for making this 30fps.
If their star system simulation is accurate, The majority of star systems should consist of 2 or 3 stars, mostly 2 (as 3 is unstable). I would imagine it's rather difficult to simulate RTGI on a planet with 2 suns, so they probably fall back to one main source of light. Of course none of us have played the game yet so we will see.
