Dips will happen. The averages seem fine.

I'm guessing the XO's performance uncapped was way too erratic. If so, good decision to lock the top at 30fps.

Agreed, 29.84 fps average is pretty good, better than many 30 fps games last gen anyway. I watched the video and the Xbox One version seemed quite smooth to me. Honestly I noticed more judder on the PS4 version, Nixxes probably should have locked the PS4's framerate too since they weren't able to achieve a smooth 60.

Watching the video, the PS4 seemed to stay above 40fps the majority of the time and generally hung out at around 45fps during gameplay.  There weren't many drops other than environmental set-pieces.  That's going to be perfectly acceptable for pretty much everyone playing on a console.  Most people won't even notice.  Those who would care likely have expensive video cards already.
