My debate is not even that it should not be 60fps...Hell I'm one of the proponents of "it should be 60fps", my issue is the reason it's not 60fps is not because of the hardware but because the console manufacturer does not want to divide it's fanbase....Would you be good if you could only play PRO players in MP? Would that be good for the ecosystem? would that be a good decision from Sony? I don't think so, the only way they could keep everybody plugged in is to give PRO owners a graphical lift but maintain the same framerate in the eco-system....Cue Uncharted 4 MP, 900p/60fps vs 1080p 60fps, graphics and resolution can be worse on vanilla, but framerate in MP has to match...It makes sense in the PS4 eco-system...As I said, you cannot compare PC, because that's a whole other kettle of fish...I disagree, if you're willing to shell out the money for the latest hardware, then you deserve the best possible performance. If you can play the game on the old hardware then you're not being left behind, you're just not getting the best version.
Should auto makers never redesign and improve their cars for fear of customers who purchased the previous years model not getting the best performance?
The game launched at 1080p if I remember clearly, it's 30fps with the same graphical settings on PS4. PS4 does not have better AF or even AA as a minimum, farless for any extra graphical bells and whistles, they're both 30fps, this means that there was lots of untapped power for the game on the PS4. I hope you're not waiting for Bungie to come out and declare it like Ubisoft did, but Destiny 1 was as parity as you could get on the consoles...There was no forced parity on Destiny 1. The game used to run at 900p on xbone and got in the last minute updated to 1080p.
The game was just not very demanding visually and the sequel still doesn't like it is.
First off, we're talking about multiplayer and so you mixed and matched...because some SP are 60 on the PRO and 30 on the Vanilla PS4 has no bearing on the discussion here... We're talking MP here, and Sony has a clause that prohibits 60fps vs 30fps divides in the PS4 ecosystem, you may disagree, but it does make sense. Sony has no control over what controller you buy or what connection you have, but where they do have control is where they can exercise it, with games on their platform and on their network. You may think only of yourself "wanting 60fps", but they don't want to upset 50 million plus vanilla users spamming their forum that they're at a disadvantage against pro players.....Man, Destiny's multiplayer is P2P it isn't even seriously competitive if they wanted that it would be on dedicated servers. You wanna talk about fair is it fair that I should lose in a crucible match with a wired gigabit network on a 300Mbps line against some kid on McDonald's wifi or a potato for a connection hell no so 30 vs 60 in Destiny PVP is the least of my concern.
Also, fyi, having a Gigabit connection does not ensure a better experience in any game online...Do you really believe that Destiny is going to be using the full gamut of a gigabit connection.....? So if destiny is fine with 1MBPS on upload, you think having 1Gigabit will give you an advantage....? Do a little research on the upload speed required for most games online, gigabit internet does zilch to improve the experience.
