Video Game General 2.0: Yo Dawg I Heard You Like Remasters And Ports

All the Souls games on console run at 30 FPS or less anyway. Them saying what they did just sounds silly.

I’ve been saying for years a locked 30 FPS+better visuals is fine depending on the game and genre.

That is not the case for any souls’esque game sure it may not be super input intensive, but souls games are very movement intensive especially rolling in PVP so it’s a big flaw that will make what should be a super enjoyable gaming experience somewhat less enjoyable.

…I’ll probably buy a PS4 next year doe.

Holy shit a fighting game AND action game running @ 60 FPS?

Po you say it like 99% of all games released in both of these genres don’t run at 60 FPS or something. Like these specific games you mentioned running at 60 FPS is a magical feat because they’re on a Nintendo console or some shit. :wink:

Didnt pushing Souls on PC to 60 FPS actually completely fuck up the combat until you manually changed something with a mod? I think it was something about how the attacks active portions were tied to the actual frames the game was sending out, so your attacks on 60FPS were incredibly short and prone to not hitting, as opposed to being tied to the actual animation.

Ok, From is safe for now then.

Valkyrie Chronicles is going to PC BTW:

Maybe its sequels will get updated and ported over as well.

That was due to the first being a bad port. Dark Souls 2 doesn’t suffer from that issue.

I have had literally one bad experience with frame rates in a souls game, and it’s always the Blighttown area in Dark Souls 1. Sometimes it doesn’t even happen.

Other than that, the frame rate of all three games have never kept me from enjoying the game itself any less than I would if they were in 60 FPS. And if it means they’re going to sacrifice frames per second to give me a higher amount of detail in character models as well as the environment, you’re damn right I’ll always pick detail over frames.

Nobody cared about frame rates when consoles were running on standard def televisions. I don’t buy the feel argument. Goldeneye 64 ran at a low frame rate and lagged so often that speedrunners aim the camera at the ground to prevent slowdowns. 4-player Goldeneye 64 is still the most fun I’ve ever had in a local multiplayer setting.

I used to read game reviews in the past, back when reviewers only wrote about how fun a game was. However, ever since the advent of HD resolutions and the PS3/360 generation a lot of discussion surrounding this hobby has shifted from simply talking about the gameplay merits to judging a game’s worth based on whatever technical benchmarks it can achieve. It’s either that or you hear about how sexist/racist/offensive/violent the game you’re playing happens to be.

Feels like I’m spamming the topic but BRUH!

Why they captured it at 240p I have no idea but aside from that it looks great.

Bayo 2 gets close to 60fps but doesn’t quite hit it ,according to DF.

60fps has always been a thing, and I thought it would be standard with the Dreamcast-onward. Saturn titles had it as well.

30 fps is coo’, but 60 is waaaay more preferred.

Bloodborne looks like a slower game anyways. Uncharted 4 is aiming for 1080p 60fps. I doubt it’ll happen though.

I had to google the FPS at which Split/Second ran. 30. I give less of a fuck than before I checked.

DC/PS2/GC/XB gen was so misleading for the future. That was the golden age of console 60 fps-ness.

Bros … TARGET FUCKING EARTH REMAKE. I can’t even believe what I’m typing.

haha, I’m glad I happened to check out some of my usual game sites and this thread just now… I was planning on getting the X1 tomorrow for that Sunet Overdrive bundle, and now I’m reading about this price drop…so fortunately I got this news BEFORE I spent an unnecessary extra 50 bucks. I will be waiting for 11/02 then.

*man, I just wish I could swap Call of Duty out for Sunset Overdrive as a bundle though… I love the look of the CoD special edition console (+ it has 1 TB hdd)…but I haven’t ever given even an ounce of a shit about that particular game franchise. …but the white system looks cool too… ah, see I had that “being a kid during Christmas Eve” feeling going on here— anticipating this new system and game tomorrow…now I need to wait another week… it’s definitely worth waiting to save 50 bucks though. $350 for a new-gen system AND a game…that’s a sweet ass deal right there.

Sunset Overdrive looks awesome imo. Like Saint’s Row 3 meets Prototype or some shit. I’m probably gonna pick up that bundle, and the price drop happens right after payday.

Dope.

TitanFall and S/O make me a little console jelly; I won’t lie.

And the Xbox One is still $500 to $600 over here… Fuck Australian console/game pricing.

Titanfall is a fucking blast.

Advanced Warfare looks like everything you wanted titan fall to be minus the mechs

The Dark Souls 1 PC Port just ran like shit. It was fucking terrible. Someone did make a free patch for the game that fixes EVERYTHING. Literally makes it the release it should have been. The patch is so good that the game runs better then does on console, when before it ran worse. You also get the benefits of other fan mods (I’ve seen clean Artorias Armor, fuck I want that) as well as stuff like running the game at higher resolutions, and even cleaner texture packs. It’s all pretty nice.

To Fromsofts credit they admitted it was their first time porting porting something to PC, and they had no idea what they where doing and that they messed up. They worked really hard on making sure the PC version of Dark Souls II ran great.

And in a lot of ways it does, and I also haven’t been keeping up with it, they issues may have been fixed by From or a Fan Patch or something, but one thing that was an issue when the game launched was how the game calculates weapon durability with FPS. The PC version at 60fps made the weapon degradation system count twice at many frames, so weapons degraded twice as fast. Considering that weapons degrade too fucking fast on console as is, they was a big issue for a number of builds. I mean hell I still have to make the trip back to the bonfire in No Mans Warf after unlocking the short cut cuz my weapons are always bout to break. It’s annoying so I can only imagine on PC.

But like I said I dunno if these have been fixed yet by anyone or not. Just what i remember from around the PC launch.

Speaking of Dark Souls II

[details=Spoiler]I just finished the Crown of the Sunken King DLC. I wish that was what Dark Souls II was really like. That was a cool location, really well done level design, I actually said out loud “Oh shit I know where I am” after unlocking a shortcut. I used to say that all the time in DS1, but not once in DSII. Was cool to be back in that kind of level deign. Also the atmosphere was pretty damn good. Still not as good as DS1, but still really good. Shulva was dope aesthetically, just the visuals got me interested in learning about the place. The inside of the temple was really fun to explore, and the area right before the first of the main bosses, (Alana or Elana) was really fun to explore, I actually put on my Cats Eye Ring on for once, and the Dragonblood Knights where dope.

Elana was a cool fight, the first time I fought her she fuckin summoned Veldstat out of no where, I kinda shit my pants and got killed. Dudes hammer has crazy range, fucked me up. That was pretty cool, but after that all she did was summon skeletons which was kind of lame, but still I like how you don’t know what to expect from her summon and it can be a minor annoyance, or total fuckin pain in the ass. I kinda feel like they missed an opportunity tho, it would have been dope if she summoned Yorg. Would make him super memorable as a character built up in Lore and then BAM you fight the asshole. Woulda been dope. Still it’s cool what they did.

Sinh the dragon was kind of annoying, but I liked him. He was pretty fun, and it was cool having a legit Dragon Fight again. The Ancient Dragon sucks and imo he’s a fake, this dragon kind fo reminded me of fighting Kalameet. Sometimes tho asshole would just land fly shoot fire, poison up the area, land, fly up shoot fire, poison up an area, like 3 or 4 times then there was no damn way to approach him cuz dude was an giant fucking fart of death lol.

I haven’t tried the gank squad boss fight yet.

Now to proceed with the main game so I can unlock Ornifex and check out the boss weapons I got, as well unlock shrine of winter so I can do that DLC next.[/details]

I thought you were swedish , like myself.
daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn yo !

You know TitanFall is on PC right?
