Let's just say that 60fps is nowhere near my main concern for this game. In fact, I haven't even checked what I'm getting because it matters so little.

you don`t actually need 60 fps to enjoy the game, but in this case with cs2 running the same and looking worse than my cs1 where i have 1400 mods installed is just terrible and i believe that they can`t save this game

:D
This game has an absurd development history and quality.
It will be interesting to see where the Steam score & Steam player feedback
stand at this year's Christmas time.

Only people left there are the ultimate fanboys who haven't been purged yet.

30 FPS for a PC game in 2024 is atrocious.

According to the games Community Manager, posting in the Paradox forum,
they are still trying to figure out what is wrong with the game

Steam users gave extensive game feedback in the first week after game launch,
in October 2023.
One just needs to read the Steam forum and Steam player reviews for 20 minutes every day.
If that is too much to handle, then one is lost

The human eye sees at somewhere around 10hz or above. The illusion of motion is reported around 12 FPS. Major movies are released at about 24 FPS. But somehow this is not good enough for a city builder game? I bet in a blind test you couldnt tell the difference between 30 and 60. The eye cant comprehend the difference.

But side by side the difference is apparent. There is an argument to be made that if you play a lot at 60 you will notice if you are suddenly playing at 30.

However, if you play at 30 for a while the mind adjusts.

Just for you I spun up this piece of trash again. Got 24fps and motion sickness and a minor headache from how choppy and blurry the scrolling is. Can't believe I made myself suffer like that upto 200k population. Lucky there's Anno and Frostpunk out there so I don't have to cope like you, torturing myself.

PS if you knew anything about anything you would know cinematic footage at 24fps includes blurred images in scenes of fast object movement which softens the shock of ♥♥♥♥ jumping around in front of your eye frantically. A computer game does not render this way by default, hence you get motion sickness and headaches.
Nice try though.

Frostpunk 2 is currently scheduled to release in the first half of 2024

If you don't have the fps / sim speed in the vanilla game, it's going to tank even further if you try and mod it.

CS1 was a good game, but what made it great and spectacular was the modding and creator communities who took it to a completely new level. You'll note that for CS1 modders had to do the leg work to improve the fps because CO wouldn't. You need the extra fps / sim speed so that the game can be modded in to something better than vanilla.

And now imagine how CO did atleast 2-3 things to make the worst case scenario they have now even far worse.

1. zero communication and transparency
2. not being able to fix problems and/or hold update schedule
3. removing steam workshop and so excluding the whole mod community

I mean seriously... this is so insanely stupid.

CO going Bethesda / Blizzard big here.


Just wait for Frostpunk 2.

If they fixed the game as quickly as they deleted comments and banned people from the forum, it would be great.

This thread is getting fun, tell me more about the 12fps :D
