Wavergray Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Back when the PS4 was first released there was some rumblings about how all PS4 games should run at 60 frames per second. As the years have gone by, we have seen that just did not happen. Whether or not this is due to the weakness of the PS4 hardware or the choices game developers made is kind of a moot at this point in time. However, with the PS5 realistically coming sometime within the next three years, a question must be asked. Would you be willing to accept it if all PS5 games could not run at 60 frames per second? While I would almost naturally assume that with the upgraded hardware the PS5 would obviously have, it would be able to run all PS5 games at 60 frames per second or higher. However, as we've seen in this generation regardless of how powerful the hardware is or how easy it is to develop for, it seems like the 60 frames per second dream may never come true outside of the PC gaming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Yrva Posted April 24, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2018 I don't really care personally, the difference is easy to adjust to after an hour or two on either 30 or 60 fps, so I don't mind. But assuming that the hardware continues to develop and get better over the next few years, with 4K becoming relatively normal as well, I wouldn't be surprised if most games released were 60 fps by default. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaivRules Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I’m not a spec-whore. 30 FPS is still VERY playable to me, just make them *stable* and I’m content! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ_Radio Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I'm starting to reach the point where I care less and less about what the latest and greatest games are coming out on the newest systems. The Playstation 5 to me is just going to be more stuff like Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War, only with even better graphics, a bigger sandbox to play in, and an emphasis to make the games feel very much like watching one of today's one hour long drama shows on Netflix. In the past I used to be in awe over games that looked gorgeous and showcased the latest technology in regards to what the developers were able to pull off. 30 FPS is okay to me, but if you truly want 60 FPS in stunning 4K resolution then I suggest you jump ship to the PC gamer market. Those guys are extremely obsessive over specs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rick_Sanchez Posted April 24, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2018 30 FPS/60 FPS mean little to me. As long as the game runs well and is good is all that mater. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ExHaseo Posted April 24, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2018 I've never really understood why people even care that much. As long as the frame rate is consistent, either way is fine with me. Once your eyes adjust to the frame rate, it really doesn't matter, and it doesn't change how much fun a game is or how it's played. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skateak Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) 60fps is nice but 30 is fine as long as the frame times don't spike. There are too many PS4/Pro games that hold a stable, if not locked 30fps, that still play weird due to the hitching.

Deluziion90 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I've switched from my beast pc (including GTX 1080TI graphic card) to a ps4 pro. It's just much more fun with all the exclusives. I couldn't care less anymore when it comes to fps. What someone already mentioned, just get rid of the long loading times some games have 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevvik Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 When all a system talks about is the graphics and frame rate then usually the games are lacking something else like good gameplay, depth of story, no total reliance on MP or MT for which they will be considered successful. Frankly, most hype (for systems or games) is about distracting you from what isn't there than actually talking about what is. Look, something shiny... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katt Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 When it comes to rhythm games, hardcore rhythm games, 30 FPS it's not enough to see all the stuff that's happening on the screen, you may see blurry objects in 30 FPS or less. So, I could care a little. I learned this recently and it's noticeable through YouTube videos: 60FPS is equal to actual gameplay, no problem at all, but in the other hand there are the 30FPS videos. If 30FPS were the actual gameplay, oh dear god... I guess 30FPS is pretty acceptable, but, in the world of rhythm games (excluding osu!) everyone is a dick (me included) and playing a rhythm game on 30FPS or less would be sacrilege. 30FPS video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJIH9ts2PBY 60FPS video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMenqagXKB8 Regarding to any other game, I guess I would prefer 60FPS, because it looks nice and pretty in every game, but it's not a decisive factor when buying one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masamune Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Honestly I never pay attention to the FPS when playing games, I probably wouldn't even notice a difference. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdhight Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I'm not even aware of FPS as long as it doesn't suffer from sudden drops. I really have no idea what FPS any game runs at unless someone tells me. Just avoid the effect where lots of explosions cause stuttering graphics, and I'll be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMDE Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I expect HDMI 2.1, to give us variable refresh rate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmland12 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I don't really care if it's 30 FPS or 60. I can never tell the difference anyway. I do think it's unrealistic to expect a minimum of 60 FPS on the PS5. It'll have better hardware, but the games will also demand more. It's an arms race and if you want 60 FPS, you've probably got to stay near the bleeding edge of the tech. That's really not possible for consoles, given their average life.

SirEricLPer Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 As long as the given frame rate is stable and the loading times are reduced I am more than happy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadiantFlamberge Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 It's good when a game lets you choose like Ni-oh, where you can prioritize resolution or framerate. When playing this, I'll pick the Action mode (for 60 FPS). All PS5 games should offer a similar option. I'd give up 4K & settle for 1080p to get 60 FPS. Don't get me wrong, 30 FPS is not necessarily a deal killer on a game- but it needs to be a locked 30. Game developers need to avoid overtaxing the hardware. Use some of that extra power for more FPS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ojama_Country Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I don't care much whether or not a game has 30 or 60 FPS. What really bugs me is framerate drops. I'll take a rock-solid 30 over a 60 with framerate drops, any day 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ_Radio Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Some indie games look and run better when they're at 60 FPS since they are more smooth. When they're at 30 FPS they are bound to look a bit slow, at least that's what I've experienced playing some platformers. However AAA games like Horizon Zero Dawn, God of War, Far Cry 5, etc are just fine in 30 FPS. I don't understand why people get worked up over frame rate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiNights89 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I don't reall mind. I feel like there's only so much you can really expect from a couch-gaming setup at this point in time. If you want the best of the best in frames and graphics with all the trimmings then PC is probably the place to be. But for now I'm just happy I can game without getting out of my bed ???

Leo Leopold Leon III Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I don't really care THAT much, but, PS4 gave us 4k, somewhat better graphics and more stable framerate...so having that in mind if PS5 games aren't majorly 60fps that would mean that the hardware is falling behind and not really worth it for early adopters...just imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conker Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I honestly don’t care, not like frames per second or graphics decide if I wanna buy something. id much rather see faster load times and no more unskippable cutscenes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dav9834 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) I notice fps constantly, it's the difference between seeing something clearly while turning fast and not. The difference I saw in video for destiny 2 on console and pc was incredible. The smoothness made everything look better. So yes I would hope that at least the majority runs at 60fps. Atm I don't care for 4k as I don't notice a dramatic difference, that and I have a plasma that's still better looking than most 4k tvs, maybe not high-end oled 4k, but that's exceptionally expensive atm at $4-8k. Maybe. Edited April 24, 2018 by Dav9834 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
