Console VS PC frame rate

[Axel]

Hey all I’ve been playing For Honor on PS4 since Beta and for the most part had a lot of fun (and a lot of rage) but wondered if seeing as how I have a pretty capable PC if I should get it on PC when it’s next on sale?

Does the 60fps vs 30fps make a difference gameplay wise in reference to ease of light parries etc? Because on console I find especially recently that certain actions seem sort of laggy, specifically Musha’s combo and feints.

Oh and so I can kick the ♥♥♥♥ out of Landwalker 🤕
Thanks.

Its a big difference. On PC i can parry 90% of all attacks as long as the person don't feint. Console 30 fps made all attacks much faster so its impossible to react. On my PS4 light spam chars have big advantage and are classified as strong like aramusha when hes crap on PC

hence i move to PC, no regrets

Hmm yeah, I find it hard to react to characters like Musha and Beserker with their fast feints etc, always have.

Maybe I should try it on a free weekend and see if it’s any different.

Cheers for the help.

Τhere difference between the two is quite big.Check youtube videos comparing pc and console to compare them yourself.Heroes like aramusha are pretty weak on pc.

Again thanks will take a look. What’s the waiting times like for 4v4 modes?

I’d be pretty happy to play as I’m rep 51 atm on console.

I don't really play ranked,like ever,so I am not sure.From what I hear though it's quite hard to find matches.

That aside,deathmatch is also pretty much dead,but duels,brawls,dominion and tribute are still quite alive.Finding matches there takes 1 minute at most,at least in my case.

Cool, I hope to see you online soon 😁

It makes a huge difference, attacks are so much easier to read, making the turtle meta much more prevalent on PC.
Anybody who says there's no difference needs to get their eyes checked.

Playing at ~120 FPS (sometimes, for no reasons, it will go from 120-144 to 100-110 or so) makes it so easier to parry attacks and react to fast attacks. I don't consider myself to be super good at the game yet I feel like heroes such as Aramusha suddenly become easy to crush in a 1v1 as all of their attacks become incredibly easier to read and counter. On the other hands, FotM heroes (read: cancerous crutches) such as PK, Shaman and Glad are still a pain to fight because, even at such high FPS, you still need to read their mind and predict the attacks.

Well I did it and have to say the game is much smoother. Players seem to gank more but oh well, works well so far 😁
