This.

Personally not my type of game but Ethomaz Digital Foundy is losing it.

Fixed.

Digital Foundry seems to think the game runs great.

Not the article linked at OP because they cleary shows performance issues.

Again, @ethomaz sees issues where there is none.

The frame rate fluctuate between 30 and 24, it never affects the experience. It has a very nice cinematic look and feel, no alising what so ever.

Please, @ethomaz post the full article here, and change the title.




Looks like LOCKED 30fps were PROMISED a while ago.
Caught a liar there - Its far from the PROMISED LOCKED 30fps


Promising a next gen game is "locked" at 30fps is like promising that your pay rate is going to stay "locked" at minimum wage.

Beautiful game that runs like that isn't impressive in the least.

You know, I can make Skyrim look almost photorealistic with lush grass and realistic textures and running ENBs to give greater lighting, etc... No big deal if if makes the game run at 16fps.

 

But it doesn't run 16 all the time, at least.


This is true. I think it averages mid 20s or so right?



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

LOL so I went ahead and finished the video. For anyone worried, don't be. A whopping ONE TIME in the entire video the frame rate hits 16, and it's during an unplayable action scene where boulders or rocks are being launched at you and it begins a cut scene. Other than that it remains a nice 26-32 frames per second. And I would say 95% of the frame rate fluctuation occurs during the slow motion execution kills, again when you don't control your character, only the timing of the button press.

I might have missed a couple though. I gotta admit, during a couple of the action scenes I focused on the fierce combat and amazing finishers and not the line on the bottom. And dat execution upgrade tab, can't wait. Bowing out of this thread now.

and away from the pixel counters I think is clear...

For all the simplicity of its mechanics, Ryse’s artistry is second to none. Crytek is home not just to Europe’s best technical minds, it seems, but to some of its finest videogame artists, too. Even with its constant cribbing from Hollywood, there has never been a game world of such striking beauty, variety or detail. It’s a monumental piece of world-building that sets the standard for videogame fantasy in much the same way Gears Of War established its own precedents during the previous generation. Like the first Gears, Ryse is a simple game loaded with small-scale encounters and rudimentary set-pieces with the intention of hustling you towards something beautiful. Both have their own ‘horror’ stage, both have sieges, both have stationary guns of sorts, and Ryse, like Gears, has room to grow if given the chance. The game has a decisive ending, but it also opens the window to something even more fantastical, offering greater scope for mechanical depth and further extraordinary visual extremes.

Best lookign next gen game.  Many agree.

Looking forward to playing this tomorrow. Average review score is higher than most thought here and I guess that makes some salty.


Yeah but Gears Of War had incredibly great and new gameplay mechanics for its time (Reload, cover system, melee, sticking grenades), and it was absolutely the best looking console game when it came out even if Resistance with its 40 player count was arguably as impressive.

The fact is Shadow Fall runs at nearly double the resolution at near 60 FPS with exponentially more REAL combatants on screen.  It looks so good I put it on par (Or better) graphically than BF4 maxed out in 1080p on PC.  Ryse does not hold a candle to it.  Sorry bud.  Please don't slander anymore classics by comparing them to Ryse either.

ffs, the italic words arent my words.  READ!

I know edge wrote it, and you agree with it.  I am talking to you AND anyone else who thinks that way.

We will have to wait for more DF, didn't watch the whole video.

Yes, but what about the rest o'f the game? What assures us that this occurence does not repeat later in the game? That we won't see such frame rates later on? We can't trust the "solid 30 fps" reassurance,as Ryse runs mostly at sub-30 fps.



This, I stole from grandpa...It's called soap.

I didn't know pre-rendered cutscenes were back in fashion. Also, either this guy is really bad at the game, or he's trying to prove a point. He consistently ignores his objective/command and manages to progress, anyway.

Man, check out the other Roman soldier in the room at the 13:00 mark. What's his problem?

Where did you get that notion? Average review score is higher than most thought here? Heres the thread on vgchartz with users predicting the metacritic score for Ryze.

Hint: Most thought it would be higher.

of course they did... lol

Yeah. It's just it completely conflicts with your perception of 'most' other posters opinions. 

:D lol i love how you call out his bullshit then he just changes argument
