1080p or 60 frames?

Without 1080p games arent playable 90 23.62%
 
Without 60 frames games arent playable 154 40.42%
 
Both (PC Master Race) 137 35.96%
 
Total:381

It's 2015! 1080p and 60fps should have been the lowest standard for games.
The hardware of the consoles was pretty much designed for slightly improved last gen games.
It run games 5 frames worse then a 3 years old laptop level for god sake.

Damn 1080p, ruining all our games. If only stuff like ACU hadn't been 1080p, we could have avoided those pesky frame-rate drops. Wait...

1080p is not an inherent issue. As Tachikoma pointed out, resolution isn't even relevant to Fallout 4's issues. Many of the most technically impressive games of this generation (both open world and linear) are 1080p, and most of them perform fine. Waggling a finger at 1080p and going 'boo, it's your fault!' whenever that's not the case is not much different than pointing at poly counts, effects, animations, lighting, textures, or shaders, etc. Any one of those things could be improved or downgraded in favor of another. None of them are an inherent technical lynch pin.

If a game has performance issues, it's the developers fault. There isn't a little resolution minion angrily stabbing their frames with a knife, it's the developer failing to properly balance or optimize their game. To be honest, it feels like you just don't personally care much for IQ, so have decided it shouldn't matter to anyone else either.

When ever you have a hugely inconsistent framerate, Its safe to assume that a resolution drop isn't really going to solve it.

And @Tachikoma seems to know what he's talking about.

Logically thinking, if it was as simple as dropping the resolution I'm sure most developers would. Quite a few big last gen games like COD were not even native HD.


she's*



1080p/30fps please. 60fps isn't necessary. Driveclub proves that this whole framerate over IQ is nonsense. I don't mind compromises like the Thief's End multiplayer resolution because I don't like multiplayer and will never play it. If you're obsessed with these things then buy a PC. And that poll is silly.



 

The PS5 Exists. 


I can't wait till 4k 30fps becomes the bragging standard and then we get told by one crowd saying "it doesn't matter".



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

Didn't the GBA always run at 60fps? GBA>PS4 confirmed XD



You know it deserves the GOTY.

I agree. Ibwill take a hit on resolution for better FPS anyday. Even 720p. Got no problem with it, if it nets me a high FPS.

Gameplay > Graphics.

Gameplay has nothing to do with rsolution or fps though.Gameplay is all about controls and design,both of which FO fails at no matter the fps.I prefer resolution as 30fps from a finely crafted game is enough and the fps is stable.



4K should be standard.



I agree, 1080p standard should go away asap! 1440p is where the fun starts!
