EDF 5 PC Port report?
Has anyone had the pleasure of seeing if this is a good port yet?

Because there are always new innovations. Hardware technology continues to get better and better. This forces expectations to change as well. If gaming at 60+ fps was a recent trend, nobody would expect a dev to develop with that in mind until it became more mainstream. Gaming beyond 60 fps is not even close to being considered new tech.

As you said, 60fps -used- to be the standard. Innovations are a good thing. We don't all still play at 800x600 for example, but nobody would attempt to say that expecting a higher 1920x1080 resolution would be silly because 800x600 used to be the norm.

It makes sense that people that buy higher-end hardware don't want to be artificially handicapped from utilizing it. Imagine if devs only released games with Ultra settings with no way for users with lesser hardware to reduce any graphic options. We wouldn't begrudge someone for lowering their detail levels and would expect a good dev (that wants to be successful) to accommodate them with the options. It works both ways.

garbage port. not only the game stutters like hell, sometimes the mousa goes ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and your character will aim upwards or some other random direction. this happens so many times that sometimes it makes me want to ragequit.

I have to go to window mode in order to even have a smooth 60 FPS experience. I have a GTX 1080 if i put the "letterbox" option on it legit drops my framerate to less than 10 FPS.

turn off G-Sync to stop the stuttering

I know this is a thing with this game currently, but that statement is pretty funny nonetheless. :B1:

Runs fine on my pc gtx1080 ryzen 7 2700x 32gb ddr4 3200. and the game is a huge improvement, love it!

Forcing NVIDIA Vsync ON also fixes G-Sync.

I believe the stutter happens when G-Sync is enabled with the games in built V-Sync (which cant be turned off in game options, you have to Force it in NVIDIA control panel). For some reason Forcing it ON (and OFF) works; I wonder if it forcibly disables the in game v-sync and then "replaces" it with NVIDIA V-Sync.

There's a difference comparing res to fps......nice try though. Ye ol apples to oranges rather than apples to apples comparison.

I was so excited for it, my hype was 11/10 then I fire one rocket and I get 10 fps. I can run Metro Exodus at 120 fps but I can't run this at a steady 60 fps? I ended up refunding it. Blazing Chrome just came out and the new The Messenger DLC also came out so I guess i'll atleast have other stuff to check out today.

Don't know if you've ever sat down in front of a g-sync monitor and viewed a game running at 144fps but if you did you'd never want to go back to 60fps. It's a massive difference in fluidity.

Wow real expert there, does not even own the game yet knows beyond a doubt that the game is "garbage".

The issue is people using G-sync. Maybe you would know this if you ever bought the game or read topics talking about it.

I have 940m and played EDF 4.1 in 42 FPS all the time but I didn't have a problem with it.
Does this mean, if my laptop can't take EDF 5 at 60 FPS... it will slow down instead? :(
A lot of games that tend to have capped framerate tend to tie game speed to framerate, so if they slow down the game as a whole slows down. That's a lesser known reason why arbitrary Fps support is so coveted, the game will run at the same speed no matter the framerate. Not all people who game on PC can play games on console spec, most have to dial down the settings way down. Otherwise low spec gamer wouldn't be a successful channel.

People ALWAYS defend Japanese companies. If a western game did this it'd make the front page of YouTube with Yong yeah spending 10 minutes reading an article and review tech USA showing his fat ugly mug and talking about it, and games journalists would say that the alt right Nazis were behind this attack on developers and that straight white men need to be rounded up and gassed.
