A solid 30fps when exploring on foot is good, but holy guacamole, that 14fps when flying over the surface of a planet is nasty.

To be fair, it is not "when flying over a planet" it is "when flying max speed down to a new planet and boosting as fast as possible without slowing down over the surface."  That's a specific, intentional circumstance you aren't going to have happen accidentally very much.  As he pointed out, as soon as you slow down and the engine generation can catch its breath, the game runs as before. 

It's still a scenario I can see happening quite a bit when one is trying to scout out a planet's surface or get to a certain location on the surface. And 14fps is a pretty rough ride for a high profile game releasing on current gen hardware.
