| episteme said: Hm, Killzone and inFamous had options to lock it to 30FPS. Are you sure they had no judder with unlocked framerates? Some people are more sensitive to judder than others, I prefer unlocked 45FPS to 30 locked, but others prefer 30 locked. |
InFamous had visible judder before the day one patch, but it solved it. Killzone never had any problem for me. I normally notice judder easily, my aging PC GPU (GTX 650) has some troubles with modern games and sometimes I end up with games that flutuate from 30 to 40-50 fps and it judders a lot (V-sync isn't an option since it normally has a big hit in performance and that's something I can't afford). Thief on PS4 and PC was a stutter festival, as an example. But in some months I will get my 970 and everything will be nice and smooth again.
About locked vs unlocked, I prefer an unlocked fps if, and only if, it comes with a v-sync solution that avoids stuttering. I can even live with small tearing, but stuttering is a deal breaker for me. So the order would be: unlocked with good v-sync > 30 locked >>> unlocked with tearing >>>>>>>>>>> unlocked with stuttering.
