Super Bomberman R's 60fps patch comes at a cost

So how did the team manage to push a 30fps Unity game up to 60fps on the Switch? Simple - the compromise shifted from frame-rate to resolution. When docked, Super Bomberman R drops from a native 1080p in its original form to 720p with the new patch in place. That's a large drop in clarity, but in our opinion, the smoother gameplay more than makes up for it. The compromises continue in portable mode, where the older code's native 720p dips down to 960x540 instead. The loss in clarity is certainly evident but again, the extra fluidity pays dividends here.

is there an option to play with either mode? In case you don't mind the 30fps?

Geobros3324d ago

According to Digital Foundry there is no option.

If given the choice between quicker / smoother gameplay or higher resolution... I'd choose the first option every time.

UCForce3324d ago

Can they give us a option where we can choose 60fps or 30fps ? Like Nioh for example.

DarXyde3324d ago

NiOh is the exception, not the rule. It'd be great to choose and NiOh sets a great example, but that isn't a standard in console gaming yet.

Still, it's pretty interesting. Bomberman doesn't strike me as demanding. Poor optimizations, perhaps?

No offence but this game looks very basic, Youre telling me MK8 can do 1080 60 but this cant? Lazy , small dev team.

CocoaBrother3324d ago

The staff behind the game consist of old Hudson Soft developers; they were never lazy with their work; however, I feel Konami had this game rushed for release cause it's Konami.

Gotta say though, going back and playing the game with the boost to 60fps makes a positive difference in the game, especially multiplayer with friends.

It is a launch title and I ALWAYS prefer framerate over resoloution. Inbox me for Switch add 🙂👍

It doesn't help that Unity is a overall crappy engine.
