That's not how it works. Running a game in debug mode on a dev kit vs running it in retail mode is literally a matter of a setting on the dev kit/deployment tool. Also, running a game in debug mode typically displays all kinds of debug information on the screen so you can see things like frame rate, and memory allocations in real time as the game does its thing in real time. We don't see that here. It normally doesn't run the game slower unless you specifically set it to run slower for debugging purposes. That's the main reason why dev kits are more powerful than retail kits - so the debug tools can be run on top of the game itself running at normal speed, using all of the resources it would be using as if it was running on retail hardware . There is no reason for this game to be running at 12 fps just because it's a pre-release build of the game. |
It's true what you say, but even the e3 footage was running on debug consoles, confirmed by digital foundry. a debug console functions like a normal console to test the state of the game. and the game was not running at 12fps, I said that because looks slower. Basically what I'm saying is, the footage is a game in development that was not running on the final product and was edited for the switch trailer.
