the ps4 is "twice as powerful". Why cant it handle dynamic lighting at 60fps? its a beast... a powerhouse, its TWICE as powerful as the ONE. |
If we are to assume it's twice as powerful (not my claim personally) with similar architecture, then we could assume that while 30fps with dynamic lighting on PS4 sounds awful (because frankly it is), then we could assume the same game with dynamic lighting running at 15fps on One sounds even worse.
If the developers can't achieve 60fps with dynamic lighting in time for launch, they need to drop it. Period. It's just not worth it, not even close. That doesn't change the fact that dynamic lighting is far, FAR more demanding on hardware than the kind of baked stuff we've been doing since the dawn of 3D consoles.
