Forums - Gaming - Massive poll GRAPHICS VS 60FPS

I prefer higher frame rates, if you spend all your days playing 30fps, you won't care, but if you upgrade and try to go back you're in for a shock. For me, this latest transition into 144fps territory has made me rediscover gaming as a whole, that's how much of a difference it makes for the overall experience.

It has a poll asking if people prefer Visual fidelity or framerate.

I think this deserves it's own thread considering how large the poll was 13k voted and 74% wanted 60fps that kinda of ends the debate of what most gamers prefer imo.

No it could just be a link in the existing thread. The poll is not the sole purpose. These are forums so it invites discussion. How it works even if a poll had 98% prefer 60FPS or Visuals people can still TALK ABOUT IT. You just made a redundant threat and your reasoning makes no sense. Website to you means nothing left to discuss so you make a thread about nothing to discuss to discuss? wtf

We can discuss it but clearly the majority of gamers that care about graphics and frame rate prefer 60fps. you can basically search any poll frame rate always wins. Anyway the discussion is already redundant. We know why gamers prefer frame rate, and why some prefer graphics the discussion is been going on since the beginning of gaming. I just think this poll was very interesting to see how one sided it was and how big the poll was.

I think from this poll it's clear that developers are noticing how important 60fps and why almost every game on PS5 has a option, will this continue? I hope so.

I'd be more interested in how many people change a games setting to 60fps when 30fps/graphics is the default (horizon forbidden west)...

For me it entirely depends on what's on offer. I played Horizon/Ratchet at 30fps but then GOW at 60fps

I played FW in 30fps on purpose as the 60fps mode gave me migraines in the release version. Flickering foliage bug killed me.

I always choose 30fps when there is the option to get a more stable picture. Flickering shadows and LOD pop in are distracting. I rather have a stable image that doesn't cause eye fatigue. 60fps is for remasters :)

Yea after you get used 60fps going back to 30 is difficult. I don't know if anyone remembers playing Gran turismo on playstation, there was a unlockable  60fps mode to my eyes the 60fps mode was mind blowing. It was like going from 480p to 1080, it was such a massive difference as kid.
