Are the worms animations still 30 fps in this PC specialized game?

Is Team17 still going to not get the picture?

Ha, they never even respond when it comes to that, and they never replied when I asked about Flockers being the same way. Considering that game's engine looks to be the same as the last two Worms games, I still don't think they get it.

EDIT: I just tried the demo for Flockers. Yep, still 30 FPS, just like I thought it would be. While I appreciate them making a demo, all it did was confirm I don't want to buy it.

Hey guys,


Sorry for taking a little while to get back to you.

We can confirm that the animations in Worms Clan Wars do in fact appear at 30 FPS.
This was due to a necessary optimization which allowed the game to run on a more diverse range of hardware and with far better performance.

While the animation in Clan Wars appear at 30 FPS, Flockers is built on an entirely new engine, written from scratch and all animations in Flockers run at 60 FPS.

Markules, if your system is indicating that the animations in Flockers are not running at this speed, it may be the case that your system lacks the required power to run the title or is encountering a fault. If you would like help troubleshooting this problem, please feel free to send us your system information and we will look into the matter.


Thank you,
Team17

So are you going to patch them to be 60 fps?

Hey again,


To provide the best possible level of performance from the game and allow access to as many players as possible, the frame rate will not likely be adjusted.
We're sorry if this is not the answer you were hoping for.


Kind Regards,

How about an option to choose between those?

Also, why aren't animations interpolated? I can't even think of other games that have certain framerates in their animations.

An option to choose if the framerate is locked or not would be perfect.

Also, will you guys update the game?

I pre ordered Clan Wars expecting the biggest Worms title with a lot of updates. Not just patches with bugfixes, but also new themes for landscapes (bring the Revolution themes at least), features, options to create and edit AI teams, etc.

Worms Clan Wars was released almost a year ago and we didn't see nothing new.
I think it's cool that you guys are updating Worms 3, but don't forget the PC players!

Please, don't abandon this game, Team17!
