Forums - Nintendo - The conduit will run in 30 fps... not 60 fps WAIT WHAT?!!

Come to think of it, I never care for visual optimization, what the Wii need was a decent graphics with 60 fps framerate. To hell with Quantum engine already!

Q6: You mentioned in an IGN article that the framerate was currently at 30 but you were aiming for 60.  Have you hit your goal yet?

Dan: The game will run absolutely solid at 30fps.  For HVS, choice is either to have less visual splendor and run at 60fps or achieve the look we want for the game and run at 30fps.  30fps is a frame rate that is plenty responsive for FPS gaming and we are valuing the increased visual detail we can offer over the slightly smoother gameplay we might otherwise get by scaling this back.

SMG was 60 fps YOU KNOW...



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

 

E3 2010- Tape runs out

Smg was a platformer where you loaded a specific world, while the conduit is a fps where you load a full environment. They said it ran smoothly at 30fps and whose to say they can't optimize more by the time it's released to get 60fps.



Locked in at 30 is all you need, frankly. 60 is nice, but I'm not like "WTF" everytime some minor annoyance is announced for a game I'm kinda looking forward too.

This internet "gotcha" game has become more and more BS and faux outrage.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Who cares...?

Sometimes I wonder if people even know the difference between 30 and 60 fps. 30 fps is fine.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

Isn't human eyes capable at 24 fps?

Meh, I will have to see it in actions to see if it is an issue.



My ideology is that if graphic lovers are satisfied with 720p 30fps on HD consoles, Wii owners should be satisfied with a good looking detailed 480p 30fps game. 60fps would be nice but from what it sounds like HVS is determined to offer a solid looking and playing game and there's not much else you could ask from them.

There is a gameplay video at ign. I didn't notice any problems. Don't sdtvs run every game at 30fps anyway?

Do you mean "Don't human eyes not recognize anything above 24 fps?"

If you do, that's not quite true.  Some people might not be able to, although quite a few people can. 

 



Oh no! To the hell with Wii!!

Why don't you buy an HD console if you like to whine that much, always making negative or whining threads about pointless things with regards to the Wii, you seriously are a Wii hater.
