30 FPS

Except traditional film runs at 24 fps...

to hell with cinematic feeling. -.- I'll watch a movie for that.

Cinematic feeling, aka consoles are barely running the 30fps 1080p so we are going to lock it at that, also we are too lazy to optimize our games to run better. /Ubisoft /EA

C'mon. We all know that human eye cannot tell the difference.. RIGHT?! RIGHT?! We also use only 10% of our brain capacity...

It is just an argument because new consoles are not able to run games on decent resolution with 60FPS so they try to convince players to 30FPS is the better experience. But who tried 60FPS know it is just stupid lie.

Two words. Spam feeling.

7.8/10 Too much water

Real cinematic: 24fps!!!

Easy. Make the people who say 30FPS is fine, play on 144Hz monitor at 144FPS for 20 minutes. Then see if they can go back to 30 and still think its good enough.

real cinematic: 5 fps

23.976fps

60 fps gives me motion sickness, 30 fps is more normal and plenty.

Im a very slow guy so i prefer 12-15 fps so i can make better choises in game :) and i really love bullet time fps

If 30 FPS is twice as cinematic as 60 FPS, then 15 FPS is three times as cinematic. Then, 1 FPS is 6 or 7 times as cinematic.

I'm cool with 30 FPS minimum in some games, but most of what I play is heavy on quick motion. Though most people can see 60 FPS easily, I can't. I cap out around 50, maybe 45-48. After that, I can't really tell the difference anymore. My eyes aren't what they once were. I doubt the majority of gamers are older, especially the console gamers.

30fps has zero advantages over 60. More delay between frames = more input lag. You might not get the difference between 50 and 60, but 60 is easier to standardise because it's a simple doubling, rather than x1.65. And I hope you can tell the difference between a 30fps YouTube video and a 60fps one, otherwise GTFO :)

The "cinematic" thing is an argument put forward because developers think we're idiots. The real reason for Hollywood holding back higher frame rates is because sets and props aren't built to look realistic enough yet. Less motion blur per frame means you see more details. That's why The Hobbit (at 48fps) CGI looks awesome but some of the live stuff looks weird.

Wait, the CGI looks good? At a higher frame rate? Aren't GAMES also CGI? But... but... Yeah.

Wow, that got ranty.

Resurrecting this dead thread because I realized that there's no mention of SmoothVideo Project.

Try it for yourself. 'Cinematic feeling' can suck it. Even movies feel better at higher frame rates.

human eyes can't see over 16,59 fps anyway

You, you, give us smooth!

As long as a game is 25-30 FPS, I could care less about anything higher.

Never seen an scientific article saying that the human eye can see beyond the 30 fps, only gamers and people who sells expensive things, so I still think it's bullshit and you should not care about 30.000001 fps or higher.

Who cares, you get used to 30 FPS in like 18 seconds.

I am used to play with 30FPS because I only play on laptop. I don't have PC :(
