FINALLY 60 FPS. Haven't really played Starfield much BECAUSE of the 30FPS.

Will definitely be utilizing DRS here and my guess is this will be ported to PS5 and because of the timing will run at a higher resolution on PS5 Pro.

I mean it isn't going to perform well on PS5 either, but it might be enough for it to stop the bleeding a bit.

The game absolutely underperformed not only because it just wasn't a critically acclaimed game, but because of the nature of GamePass and PC GamePass.

Microsoft does need to be careful about the optics. It's clear that they aren't willing to blow up xbox even if it is dead. So, you wouldn't want to put this out as a PS5 Pro launch title or something.

It will eventually be sold for $5 like all bethesda games and then out on Ps plus anyways

Twice as many frames will definitely fix how boring, ugly and bland the game is.
At least it's coming to ps5

60fps would be great even though I had no issues playing the game at 30fps. I care more about all the custom options like adjusting Mass, Vendor Credits, etc. and City Maps which is coming. Looking forward to seeing how all of it is implemented and the Shattered Space expansion which should get revealed at the Xbox showcase in June.

60fps modes coming alongside ps5 launch. Good to know… I’ll be there when it happens.

Outer World’s struggles with 60 even with the upgrade to ps5. Erratic and with screen tearing the more you pull out FOV.

Maybe this time they will not forget to include the "Fun" part of a videogame but I doubt it, it's too much to expect as the game has to track and store thousands of potatoes and the paper clips.

They can move it to 60fps, but the reduction in IQ is gonna make it look like an Atari game.

That's buy editing a .ini file or something though isn't it , it's not an official option in the games menu
I don't have a PC, but it sounds like it is unlocked.


They got up to 80fps at 1440p. Doesn't mention anything about hacking. But very well could have been. That said 60fps won't make a boring game better anyway.
