Capcom: DmC looks/feels like 60FPS. Also, 60fps is tiring for your eyes, thus 30fps.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2...feel-of-60-frames-per-second-publisher-claims

During the development of open world fantasy action role-playing game Dragon's Dogma Capcom learnt new tricks that give Devil May Cry the feel of 60 frames per second, the publisher has claimed.

“During the course of the development of Dragon's Dogma we did a lot of experimentation and happened upon some techniques for working with Unreal Engine, some fairly elaborate techniques, that allow for a controller responsiveness that gives the player the feel of 60 frames per second,” Itsuno told Eurogamer.

“So even though you have it running at 30 frames per second, you create the motions and the poses in such a way that the brain will naturally fill in what would have been the extra frames.

“Also, on the players' side, we made some adjustments to the button response and when it's reflected on screen.”

Itsuno said action games that run at 60 frames per second can have a tiring effect on players' eyes after a long time because the frames themselves “almost shake or flash”. Because of this, “adjusting the speed is almost necessary”.

Stop using quotation marks for quotations that you invented.

Let their bullshit stand on its own merit, no reason to invent quotes.

I don't want my brain to fill in a damn thing. This isn't a fucking horror film with twitching people standing at weird angles that my mind attempts to comprehend. It's a damn action game. It won't feel like 60fps, it will feel like 30fps.

Isn't this really old news?

Ignoring the pure bullshit of... pretty much everything he said... can someone comment on the responsiveness of dragon's dogma? I know its not a 60fps game and doesn't even "feel" like one in all likelihood, but is it responsive for a 30fps game? Does it feel like any special knowledge was used, lol?

Fucking hell they are serious about this shit. There is no such thing as "the feel of 60fps", it either does or doesn't run at 60. Criterion tried to pull the same shit with Hot Pursuit.

"Because of this, “adjusting the speed is almost necessary”."

oh yeah that's the reason, I'ver played multiple 100 hour+ RPGs in a row at 60fps but your 10 hour action game will do me in, thanks capcpom

The feeling of 60.

Though the part about adjusting the speed being almost necessary for health concerns is on a level I find almost offensive.

Dont tie yourself to this shit, Itsuno. You're better than this and the excuses you have to make for another dev houses inferior tech.

The good news, of course, is that the PC version (if it's ever released) will be able to run at 120fps since it's UE3 and a simple .ini edit unlocks the framerate to whatever you want. Right, Capcpom?

Criterion deserves a ton of credit for what they did with Hot Pursuit. It has the lowest input lag of any 30fps that Digital Foundry has tested. 83ms of input lag while Burnout Paradise had 66ms of input lag. 30fps usually have 100ms+ of input lag.

Haven't you heard about the millions of COD players having issues because they play it at60 fps for hundreds of hours?

If Playground said that what I've played of Forza Horizon ran at 60 I think I'd believe it!

I love fast paced action and if most action games were running at 60 FPS, it would be great. But after playing Vanquish, I'd lie if I said that it didn't run great and felt almost like 60 FPS. Almost like 60 FPS isn't 60 FPS, I know. But it's better than slower paced action and unlocked frame rates.
