I'm not even too mad about the CG quality, since I played it on PS3 already, but 720p destroyed my heart.

 

[StrikeFirst117]

Performance is weird, constant 60 in cut scenes, game rendered cut scenes, in battle though fluctuating 30-60 constantly really odd frame rate here.

 

[Brannon]

I am shocked.
You guys should have expected this.

They are young, and full of hope. Now they shall learn; hope does not spring eternal, hope blows you off a building and stabs you in the back.

Let them suffer, mwahahaha.

 

[Paracelsus]

Not sure if posted yet but Porcupine posted a downsampled image in 1080p in the Steam thread

Made me twitch a little, in a "this can't be" way.

 

[ss_lemonade]

I honestly don't see a difference in those PS3 / PC comparison shots. Lol

Spoiler

Apparently I'm blind.

Those pc shots look almost as bad as the terrible video quality in the 360 version. Maybe when viewed on a phone you would miss them, but those artifacts are clear as day for me

 

[WilltheMagicAsian]

Every FF game on Steam except for VII and VIII are bad ports though....

aren't those just the original PC ports for those games though?

 

[Moral Panic]

Can anyone confirm if you can delete/empty out the video files for the language you're not using, and the game still runs?

I renamed the entire folder and started a new game. The game doesn't crash but you have to press start and skip scene as it just shows black. So probably no problem without the dual audio.

 

[Kagari]

Seriously? Slightly better cutscenes as opposed to twice the framerate, and the ability to force AA and AF? Come on now.

The game is 90% a movie anyway! lol

 

[Frumix]

How did Square do such a poor port when every other recent FF PC game wasn't too bad?

Yeah these Android games in an emulator wrapper were so quality

 

[Violence Jack]

God, what a roller coaster this thread has been. Just as I was on the verge of buying this.

For shame Square.

 

[R1CHO]

PC and i swear i cannot see a difference .

If you switched the tags around you would totally fool me .

Here, not zoomed, just cropped.

PS: Beaten

 

[Sentenza]

Comparison PC and PS3 cutscenes:
PC:

PS3:

So yes, not PS3 quality

Eh, can't really say that FMV cutscenes are what concerns me about this port.
No arbitrary resolution and having to force AF and AA through utilities are the worst offenders by far.

 

[copelandmaster]

So they unlocked the game to 60 fps, and make the game run at 720p. Japanese devs are just... hilarious.

The menu's were 60fps in the console versions. They probably unchecked a limiter box for the actual gameplay.

 

[TheTrain]

AMD user here, how to get rid of the black bar?

 

[rivalchild]

last one for now

The state of the map in the top right hand corner.

 

[Mkilbride]

I can't believe it.

I saw Japanese voices, 60FPS support, I was like "Alright, time to support SE and show them I'll buy their games if they do it right!"

Shame on me.

720P?!

 

[Skyzard]

What's the best AA we can force with this? Really clueless when doing that outside the game (other than the whole nvidia inspector and profiles usage) just not sure what's the best (using transparency with other settings for example? And if it's even supported)- all these long names like SSGGXAA with bits and bobs, would appreciate any help with that too.

 

[Dex815]

Well for me the game does not even start. First try it froze during the cutscene. Next 3 tries it froze in SE logo.

Square... Enix...

 

[kiyomi]

Not sure if posted yet but Porcupine posted a downsampled image in 1080p in the Steam thread

It doesn't say anywhere that it's downsampled and the image itself is 720p anyway.

 

[Seiru]

I would hope that people who pre-ordered expected this. There was no reason not to expect this.

 

[Kyougar]

NEVER
USE
MOTIONJOY

what then? I'm a controller on pc noob :[

 

[burgerdog]

Forcing AA/AF does make a good bit of difference. (AMD here)

Base game:

Overriden:

Especially the AF, to my eyes.

Perfect example of why devs shouldn't ignore AF given that it's almost free performance-wise.

 

[tmtyf]

Still won't work. I've tried everything. Only way to get around it is to fresh install Windows but I'm not doing that to play a locked 720p game.


There is an easier better method I'll just have to wait for.

what error does it give you?

 

[YianGaruga]

Not sure if posted yet but Porcupine posted a downsampled image in 1080p in the Steam thread

It's not downsampled

 

[Frumix]

Pressing Escape in windowed mode brings up the "Are you sure..." dialogue rather than just dropping the process straight away.

Why

 

[Liquid-San]

aren't those just the original PC ports for those games though?

Yeah, that's why lol. Back when Square used to actually add to PC ports. I honestly don't care for FFXV now on PC though. No point if there are no added benefits.

Pressing Escape in windowed mode bring up the "Are you sure..." dialogue rather than just dropping the process straight away.

Why

With all of the advantages of playing windowed.... it seems like it's meant to be played that way.

The state of the map in the top right hand corner.

That's how it's always been?

How do I find the settings to force resolution?

 

[SenkiDala]

The game is 90% a movie anyway! lol

No, it's not. lol

 

[Holykael1]

The game is 90% a movie anyway! lol

Cmon don't be ridiculous. There are 9 hours of cutscenes and about 45-50 hours of gameplay. Only about an hour of the CGI cutscenes.

last one for now

It looks much better than the ps3 version here. Hopefully the shitty port shit like the cutscenes, fullscreen AA and resolution can be fixed.

The port sucks yes.. but it's still potentially the best version of the game.

 

[Monado Blade]

Only for the menu, once you load a game it'll load your controller icon setting too.

Ah ok, that's cool. Thanks for the heads up

 

[Nzyme32]

Aaaand now I remember why I don't usually preorder, but, I understand its an older game and at least you can run it at 60fps but still... god damn you square, always so close yet so far off the mark.

soo Why 60GB? D:

I ask this about Wolfenstein TNO and to an extent, Shadow of Mordor.

 

[Porcupine]

It's not downsampled

I've made a mistake, thought it worked, this is just 720p We need you Durante

 

[rivalchild]

That's how it's always been?

That's fair enough, it's still a pretty horrible looking squashed circle.

You're Mr. Enix, aren't you? This is all your fault!

looks a lot better now that i forced 8xAA and turned off fxaa force.

Mordor has a lot of pre rendered cutscenes. I can see the compression on the PS4 version...

 

[kiyomi]

Do you have a 16:10 monitor?

The game has black bars regardless in 16:9.

 

[Mkilbride]

Durante, please save us, your holy light, bless us.

I want to run this @ 2560 x 1440!

i think this is what you are asking

[WilltheMagicAsian]

Since the cutscenes are just there in a folder, if you figure out how to rip them from the PS3 disc and convert them to w/e file format they use for the PC version, they might work?

 

[Caayn]

The game has black bars regardless in 16:9.

Really why? Wasn't the console version in 16:9, if so why would the PC version have black bars when running at 16:9.

 

[kick51]

Do you have a 16:10 monitor?

I'm getting black bars and don't have a 16:10 monitor
