Sluggish Gameply

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 7:16 pm

Hey all,

I recently purchased this game this evening and installed and played for about 15 minutes. I think this game would be very entertaining however I cannot get over the fact that for some reason I am getting a solid 60 FPS (monitoring with both FRAPS and MSI Afterburner) in the game (vsync on) but the game feels and looks like its running at 30-40 FPS. This is in both single and multiplayer. My rig is below and this occurs no matter what in game settings I use.

Core i7 920 OCed 3.6
2 x GTX 580 SC in SLI
6 gig Corsair Dominator DDR3
P6T Deluxe
Corsair AX1200 PSU

Is this a common occurance??? Is this something that has to be unlocked by Splash Damage???....... PLEASE HELP !!!

Thanks

go back 20 years play doom on the first computer after nothing else, come back play this and you'll love it, get over the fps and enjoy the game for what it is. ALL OF YOU! (well all of you that are complaining about textures and what-not)
btw no its not just you

I just wanted to know why I am getting 60 FPS but the game is looking like its running at 30 FPS. Not complaining as I said the game looks like it could be very entertaining.

Did I ONCE say I was mad about the poor FPS. I just wanted to know why I am getting 60 FPS but the game is looking like its running at 30 FPS. I'm sorry....but when I pay $60 for a game I would like to know why stuff is acting weird. Please if anyone has any REAL input let me know if this is happening to you.


Could well be the motion blur (which can be disabled) or other such visual effects that give the 'appearance' of lower FPS.

ps. Anymore than 60fps is wasting processing power.

ID Tech games for some reason cap the frame rate at 30 FPS I can't really remember why, there is a reason though. It is annoying to me to see this happen in a ID tech 5 game. ID has said that Rage will be at 60 FPS so it could entirely be the developers choice. There was a post in the steam forums on how to get rid of it: unofficial use at your own risk. http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1884049

It's a huge issue, it feels like utter [censored] in single player because of this.
It's completely unacceptable.

This is while playing multi :

Nice view...for 22fps. I mean...22 freaking fps ! 26 with everything on low. Go fix your crap.

Running a Q6600 @ 3ghz with 4gb of RAM and a 5870 should give me the same result that crysis 2 gives : constant 60fps on high, without ambient occlusion.

Seriously you people need to stop making games for consoles then port them on PC. Do it the other way around and see if the pad-lovers like it.

Like...23fps ? Tell me if there's something that justify that ?
