Wow so i guess 2 generations later it will run at 60?
I don’t see a mid-high range CPU from 2020 being able to run one of the most highly detailed games of all time at 60. 40 FPS might be achievable, though.
Why has optimization gone out of the window for so many AAA-games? We’re over 2-generations away from GTA5 and now we’re taking about not even hitting 60FPS on the highest-end consoles?
What is even the point of consoles in the 2020s, if they can’t deliver 60fps as the bare minimum across all games? Ridiculous.
I would call BS.
GTA is a simulation heavy game. Simulation heavy games are more CPU bound, and since the PRO isn’t upgrading the CPU…
This “Tech Expert” is Richard Leadbetter “founder of Digital Foundry and Technology Editor for Eurogamer.net.”
This is literally gaming press reporting on what other gaming press is saying. This isn’t news, this is just pure and simple speculation.
Not surprising. The Pro has the same CPU as the non-Pro, and framerate is CPU limited.
Did none of you see the massive amount of pedestrians in the trailer which was showing actual gameplay? Getting that many pedestrians with 60 fps on ps5 CPU from 2020 isn’t possible.
How would he even know. Nobody has seen true gameplay. Also it could run at 60 fps at lower quality and 30 fps at higher quality for example.
wow, a gaming console with no upgrades to the CPU from the previous gen means the game will not run at 60 🤯
Why even bother now? People will buy anyway. And then will buy again a definitive edition with high res textures and 60fps on PS6
We reached that gen of “probably” higher visuals
What’s the point of this kind of article? It’s basically just speculation for a game that isn’t even close to being released. Is this just to make us feel good about hating on the ps5 pro? I find on r/gaming to see actual news about games, and learn things that are actually relevant. Just frustrating to see so many articles that look/sound like rage bait.
Pcmr for the win babyyyyyy
So it will be traditional cinematic experience in ~30FPS? /s
I never expected GTA 6 to play at 60fps, most game companies don’t develop games for 60fps
They’ll be re-releasing this game for 20 years eventually PS8 will
So we wait for the PS6 before gta5.
We are finally getting out of the “Also on PS4/Xbone” era of this generation, so games are only going to get more demanding, especially with UE5 and other game engines (like with Ubisoft Massives Snowdrop) implementing RT features as standard rather than special eyecandy modes. Ray Tracing has a decently large cost to performance on CPUs, and modern open world games are also expected to have great view distances, very little pop-in, high quality animations, lots of NPCs, dense geometry, all stuff that pulls CPU performance.
GTA 6 is going to push the boundaries of open world visuals, and Rockstar is a company that has shown that they don’t necessarily care about hitting 60fps unless it’s really easy to do so (and even then, still no PS5/Series X RDR2 60fps patch). Truth is, they could probably make GTA 6 run at 60 (or at least let it run with an unlocked 45-60 ~720p performance mode like most modern open world games actually do) if they wanted to, but they’ve never really shown themselves to be willing to make that sacrifice to visuals.
When will the fucking devs realize that gamers will take 60FPS over games looking better?
Unless this person has seen or played a build of gta 6 then their speculation is absolutely meaningless clickbait garbage
If this is true, then hopefully a 40fps mode will be available.
PC keeps winning over console-poors
Well when they release it on pc in 2 years it will run at just fine…
I loathe console exclusivity. Shit is so stupid.
Of course not, the CPU is literally Welfare status. Nothing open world, made for current gen with “next gen” engines will run at 60fps. Forget even getting 60fps in Dragon’s Dogma 2, it’ll do a 40fps capped at best.
That’s just pathetic.
I don’t think anybody expected it to run at 60fps.
LoL’s in Crysis
I will wait for PC version.
$700 + disc drive to run games at 30fps. What a joke.
You hear that?
It’s the cry of credit cards that will suffer the pain when everyone with below a 3700X or equal upgrades their PC.
And by the looks of the last steam hardware survey that’s a lot!
