Absolutely bizarre that a 1st party title doesn't seem optimized for the console they're developing for. This makes me skeptical the PC version will be optimized too.

The people that keep saying that should really just try to use a 144+hz monitor for a while. Surely they'll be able to notice the difference as well.

Might just be my middle-aged eyes, but I recently went from a 75Hz monitor to a 160Hz one and I'll be damned if I can see the difference in motion. Granted that don't play much in the way of twitch-style shooters anymore, but for me the threshold of visual smoothness is closer to 60Hz than whatever bonkers 240Hz+ refresh rates that current OLEDs are pushing.

I'll agree that 30fps is pretty marginal for any sort of action gameplay, though historically console players have been more forgiving of mediocre performance in service of more eye candy.

A 160hz refresh rate gives the software a 6ms render budget, do things actually even run at that rate?

[–] ParetoOptimalDev 4 points 3 months ago

I can confirm 3-5ms frametimes with a popular shooter at 165hz.
