Reviews are out, they look good.


I was really looking forward to this but the game is frame-locked at 30fps on PC :banghead:. To make things worse this isn't your regular framerate cap.

You can make changes via config to get 60fps but then the whole game goes for a toss... AI, physics, everything.

It seems they've hard coded it at 30fps to ensure a good experience at 1080p on consoles.

'No more crappy console ports' my ass! I'm not buying unless they promise to patch it :mad:

The 30 fps lock is a major bummer really. But I hope the game's enjoyable with that low a framerate.
 
I cannot stand playing a game that doesn't run at a full 60 fps. Anything lower than that just kills the enjoyment for me.
 
The Run was also capped at 30 fps and there was a way to override the cap. Let us see how this goes.

True, and it seems even 'The Crew' is aiming for 30 fps - Source . So it's not just NFS.

Apparently there are technical limitations in these games due to the MP integration. So it might just be unrealistic to expect current tech to achieve 60fps.

If that's the case I think I'll buy it some time. Reviews look pretty awesome.
 
It's a shame cause they intentionally locked it's frame-rate, so I think EA might ban people for modifying the code.
