It’s a disaster on Xbox one s as well. The frame rate is all over the place sometimes. If one persons goes into the menu the frame rate tanks, if you both go into it it’s a slide show for a bit (especially during the first mission).

I’ll be glad when the new console come out with much better CPUs to take care of issues like this.

Is anyone having better luck with the Xbox One X? Just checked the article and they assume the pro doesn’t fair much better.

I have an X, however I don't have any friends to invite over to play split screen.

Profchaos2431d ago

You have bigger problems then

ElementX2430d ago (Edited 2430d ago )

Most of my friends, or at least the people I talk to on a regular basis, aren't gamers. I have a few friends who game but they don't live near me so we don't game unless it's online.

rainslacker2430d ago

Was playing it at work today in split screen, and while it seemed to not be as fluid as it should be, it didn't seem to be a technical disaster.

I find it funny reviewers where sent on a "review" edition on Epic store and told not to report any issue or bugs as its not the final game....

Early game in performance mode on enhanced consoles the game dips down to low 40's as soon as anything happens, I can imagine how great it holds up late game.

KillZallthebeast2431d ago

I've heard the one x at least is passable. Apparently the pro dips into the 20s from 60fps even just riding in a vehicle.

Ricegum2430d ago (Edited 2430d ago )

I play it on the Pro, and this doesn't happen at all, it doesn't deviate much from 60fps. You get slight dips here and there but it's generally fine. Playing split screen is a bit of a nightmare though when someone goes into a menu.

Sadly looks like Randy Pitchfords overall terribleness is now effecting gearbox as a whole

BenRC012430d ago

What a mess, it's not like it's pushing any graphical boundaries.
It's obviously just base console versions (xbox platform has less effects and details) just uprezzed for pro and x with zero optimisation. Massive red flags were obvious with the whole review scenario.

Stanjara2430d ago

Why the hell did't they use Unreal 3 for this? It would be 60fps on consoles and 140fps on Pc.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing12d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit12d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing12d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9212d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse

To be fair, there are also human made games that release and lack any fun at all either.

jznrpg16d ago

But all of the great games have been made by humans

jwillj2k416d ago

One is by choice, the other is a feature.

PRIMORDUS16d ago

Guild Wars 2 been playing for 14yrs, 1st beta. This is just one company I support, Arenanet and NCSoft, even though I torrent, there are a few PC companies I will buy from. "PlayStation’s Horizon MMO spin-off, Horizon Steel Frontiers." I feel this will be good, NCSoft is a good developer/publisher.

CrimsonWing6915d ago

It’s a tool. Use it elevate things and get it done faster. I’m sorry but not every game made by humans is good. If this can help things, then I fully embrace it.
