I thought that even the most powerful gaming rigs aren't able to run this game max settings and maintain a steady framerate.

They aren't.   Because the game doesn't properly allow multicore threading.  If it did... it'd be pretty easy to run this at max framreate with max settings.

Which is what they are planning to fix in the port.

 

It's a demadning game... but only because of developer inadequcy.  If it were programmed correctly it would run on much weaker hardware.

Why did it take so long for someone to bring this up? Surprised more people don't know PS2 runs horribly because of this.

That's the best part about the new consoles. Since ports are going to be so easy now, look forward to even more optimisation on PC as well, hopefully...

Lack of PC gamers, therefore lack of people who have actually played Planetside 2.   I mean sure CGI Quality did, but he has a developer level PC.  Outside people who play Planetside 2 it's weird single core focus isn't well known.

 

That they're finally going to fix something they said was going to exist at launch, and were promising to fix for ages now is good news.... because well... it IS a fun game.

It's a game i'd recommend on PS4 for sure.
