PUBG To Run at 60FPS on Xbox One X, undecided on Xbox one

[JINX]

The interview comes from Wccftech: https://wccftech.com/playerunknown-xbox-gaming-60fps-xb1x/amp/

Definitely on Xbox One X, 60FPS. On Xbox One, we're not sure. We may have to limit it at 30FPS, maybe, but the last time I saw it, it was running at about 30 to 40. We're still constantly improving it so, you know, the aim is to get to 60. That's why we're doing Game Preview, because I think the great thing about console is it's a locked hardware system, so we can do really specific tweaks that tune it for those systems.

I have great faith that we'll get there. The great thing about Battlegrounds is that it's not…unlike the more high paced shooters, frame rate isn't that important. Yes, it is important, but it's not as important for us as it is in a twitch shooter. So we're aiming for 60; not sure if we'll get there, but that is our aim.

The article also mentions 4k textures being on PC and X, but he said they still have to make them.

 

[Trago]

That's impressive if true.

Twelve days to go! Can't wait! :D

 

[RPGamer92]

Nice!

If One X is 60 and One may be 30, does this imply there's no "framerate parity" stipulation for multiplayer games?

 

[Cuco2Casual]

Good thing Phil isnt pushing that silly parity policy like Sony is. Buy premium product, expect premium performance as it should be.

 

[nycgamer4ever]

I can't imagine them releasing on xbox one x at 60fps and 30fps one s. That would be a shame.

 

[Reckheim]

Doesnt that say that they are 'aiming for 60fps for sure'?

Best case they'll just leave it unlocked and optimize as much as they can until release I guess.

Locking one version to 30 and keeping another at 60 will be a huge multiplayer divide.

 

[v_iHuGi]

Will believe it when i see it, one of my friends has a beast rig and he told me this game run will never run on a Ps4 or Xbox without problems in it´s current state, he is not a fanboy or hater.

So yeah let´s see how they will handle this, hoping for the best.

 

[Tagyhag]

Neat, if you have the power, use it.

I would think there would be some backlash if this happened.

 

[cakely]

I'm a little skeptical that he actually knows that PUBG will hit 60fps on the X1X.

It's a bit of a surprising decision, if true. It makes me less interested in the XBO version, that's for certain.

The great thing about Battlegrounds is that it's not…unlike the more high paced shooters, frame rate isn't that important. Yes, it is important, but it's not as important for us as it is in a twitch shooter.

Click to shrink...

Also saying that "frame rate isn't that important" makes me a little worried.

Click to shrink...

I never thought that there was...it seemed it was a "content" parity. Things could look better, play better (framerate), but you should still be able to do the same things within the game.

 

[Servbot24]

For a shooter that is not graphically intensive, wouldn't 60fps be the standard expected even on base consoles?

 

[ZhugeEX]

Doesnt that say that they are 'aiming for 60fps for sure'?

Click to shrink...

That's for the Xbox One version.

For the Xbox One X version he says that's 60fps.

 

[impact]

Click to shrink...

Nah, the game is not too optimized on PC. No way base PS4 or XB1 would run them at 60fps without looking like a Switch game.

Click to shrink...

There never was for Xbox One X. I think Sony said something about this for the Pro last year though I don't remember.

 

[Angie]

Will regular players compete against Xbox players?

Click to shrink...

Microsoft sent engineers to work with Bluehole to essentially make the XB1 version though, so I think they will have optimised it a hell of a lot.

 

[Deleted member 7101]

You get what you pay for. Good for Xbox X owners.

 

[OnionPowder]

Now i'm really interested in seeing this running.

 

[LordOcidax]

Going to wait for another source... 60 on XBOX and 30 on XBO doesn't make sense...

 

[Deleted member 1003]

I hope it would be 60 on the X, all the power I don't see why not.

 

[Footos22]

Good thing Phil isnt pushing that silly parity policy like Sony is. Buy premium product, expect premium performance as it should be.

Click to shrink...

There is no "parity" between Pro and the standard PS4, This is blatantly just a case of both will be targeting 60, but one will be at 60 or close to and the other will be all over the place.

 

[Servbot24]

Nah, the game is not too optimized on PC. No way base PS4 or XB1 would run them at 60fps without looking like a Switch game.

Click to shrink...

Hmm, hopefully MS can help with the optimization. This is a huge game for them this year so it would be worth the investment to get it right.

 

[Captain of Outer Space]

I don't think Phil has ever suggested he cared about this sort of stipulation.

There isnt.

It's not good thing. Expect huge backslash then. It's not a problem in singleplayer, but in multiplayer, oh yes, it's a problem

 

[Lukas Taves]

Click to shrink...

Given how it run on even Pcs more capable than xbone and Ps4, not really no.

 

[Theorry]

Click to shrink...

Why? People play with elite/scuff controllers also wich give them a edge.

 

[The Futurist]

I'd be more than happy with a solid 1440p60 on the X.

Let devs use the power in any way they see fit.

 

[Edge]

I would think there would be some backlash if this happened.

Click to shrink...

But... Why? I will never understand this, because this is how it is on PC since PC and Multiplayer games exist and it was never a problem there. :D


Also, it already happened on PS4, even in the same genre! You can play Fortnite in rock solid 60FPS on the Pro or 30 - sometimes 60 on standard PS4.

 

[Border]

It's not good thing. Expect huge backslash then

Click to shrink...

Do you think anyone really cares if X1X users are getting a better framerate?

Nobody enforces partiy on PC, and I don't see any huge backlash.

 

[thePopaShots]

I'd be OK with this if they separate those playing on One X with those playing one One S and before, otherwise you can forget about this game having any kind of comp scene on console.

 

[chandoog]

Why? People play with elite/scuff controllers also wich give them a edge.

Click to shrink...

Unless they'll be in separate lobbies, the Xbox X owners will have a huge advantage over the bigger install base Xbox One owners based purely on how the game itself is running without extra peripherals.

Elite controllers are applicable for both Xbox types, you can't simply ask every Xbox One owner to buy an Xbox X.

 

[huH1678]

It will be 60*fps who are they kidding, I played the PC version ;_;

 

[HypedBulborb]

Lol, I believe it when I see it, it can't keep 60fps on PC, even on really beefy PC's.

 

[Theorry]

Unless they'll be in separate lobbies, the Xbox X owners will have a huge advantage over the bigger install base Xbox One owners based purely on how the game itself is running without extra peripherals.

Click to shrink...

So just like every game on PC?
People are willing to pay more. They shouldnt be hold back. And to be fair you never gonna notice if you got killed by a person on the X or the S and 60fps doesnt make a player suddenly a way better player also.

 

[Falcon511]

Hmm I am going to wait for another source on this. Frame rate is important.

 

[Gundam]

That's actually impressive if true.
Seeing how unstable PUBG on PC is at the moment, that would actually be a bizarre case of the console version being the better way to play for me. If I could get used to a controller for the game, anyway.

 

[chandoog]

So just like PC?

Click to shrink...

On PC you can always modify and lower settings to prioritize frame rate if you choose to, that won't be an option here. One portion of the players will be naturally stuck with half the performance of the other portion of the players.

I can't believe this is even being argued.

 

[gcwy]

Click to shrink...

Backlash? Some of you are blowing this out of proportion.

I can't believe this is even being argued.

Click to shrink...

On lower PC configs you cannot increase the framerate at all because of the relatively weak hardware. Why shouldn't this be argued?

 

[Prine]

BEAAAAST!

 

[gabdeg]

They better include a frame rate lock option then cause this sounds like unlocked to me. No way the X is holding a good 60.

 

[imt558]

Why? People play with elite/scuff controllers also wich give them a edge.

Click to shrink...

60 is 60. There isn't any difference in input lag if someone use Scuff, elite. Player is just more precise in aiming.
Same with racing games if someone play with wheel, other with gamepad. But 60fps on both is 60. Period. Yes, there will be a huge backslash if regular Xbone owner plays in 30 fps against Xbone X owner who plays at 60

 

[Deleted member 23046]

Why? People play with elite/scuff controllers also wich give them a edge.

Click to shrink...

You cant seriously compare the gain of doubling the framerate with gaining a few milisecond on a controler.
Especially in an online competitive shooter, where its the network tickrate that rules everything above local input.

 

[Golding]

pretty awesome.

 

[Max|Payne]

Anyone here even plays the test server build of the game? It runs noticeably smoother than the current stable version. I think the final version will end much better optimized than people assume.

 

[Duck Sauce]

I'm fine with it. There won't be any competitive advantage as our eyes can only see up to 30 fps.
