    I decided to shelve this game today until the Devs sort out the FPS issue. I'm not going to bash it.., demand my money back, ect.

    I really do like the title. I'm a huge racing fan., and have been ever since one Christmas morning when I unwrapped a present to find Santa brought me Pole Position for my Atari. Been hooked on racing titles since (I should say the more circuit based titles).

    I about jumped out of my skin when the news hit that Kunos was releasing Assetto Corsa on consoles. I thought "finally someone is picking up where Simbin left off with Race Pro". Which by the way I still play today.

    I just can't play this title without getting a headache, eye strain, or feel like I'm going cross eyed. I know some aren't having the FPS issue as severe as others, but WOW.., I sure am. I've done everything possible on my XBox and adjusting various track settings within the game to free up resources to improve FPS. Nothing works. I'm even to the point of playing with my XB1 offline and still no improvement. There is something seriously flawed in the coding for the FPS to be experiencing major choking when driving at low speeds.

    I hope the Devs can sort this out. No console title to date can compete with the physics in Assetto Corsa. I don't care if it doesn't have photo realistic graphics. I've been gaming long enough to know the compromises that must be mad to run a SIM like this on a console. Kunos.., please don't drop the ball before you even get a chance to shoot it. You've got the makings of a great title here.

    Good decision for this moment I think, I'm of the same mind. I'm not letting them off the hook quite as easily though - problems need to be pointed out.

    If only this had been released in the Xbox One preview program all would have been fine, they'd be gaining fans for the physics not losing them for the missing features.

    I don't really take much issue with missing features at the moment because they're not affecting "game performance/stability". The FPS issue is a big one IMO. It wouldn't be so bad if the frame hits weren't this extreme. There are times where it's like the game actually hit 60fps, then does a direct drop from from 60 to 20, then stutters all over the places, then snaps back. That really messes with your eyes.

    I don't think they'll ever hit that consistent goal of 60 (which I'm fine with)..., but the erratic rate drops currently renders the game unplayable for me. I can get several laps in.., and then I have to quit.

    If Kunos sticks to it, and doesn't wash their hands of the console too early (like Simbin did with Race Pro)..., I think Assetto Corsa will easily be on top of the competition.

    I would prefer to see a locked 30fps and an unlocked option for those that don't care. While 60 is better, I would chose locked stable 30 over jumpy 30-60.

  6. This might be a crazy question have you tried a hard reset on your console ? With the Xbox one it can solve a ton of issues.

    30fps is no good for a sim racer it's fine for an arcade racer but for a sim it's no good. With some help from the platform holders they should be able to lock down that frame rate. It's just a case of more optimisation required to get the best out of each console

    Neither is a jumpy frame rate. So I'm choosing the lesser of two evils.

  9. easiest solution is to lower the resolution on both platforms for a steady 60fps. most on console wouldnt want that though as this gen is all about resolution

    Hi guys.

    I'm guessing that I'm (ufff...) not alone on this one... :)

    Yes, the game on some consoles is unplayable (and I'm being kind with the word).

    I reached some conclusions (and I hope the developers look into this):

    - Some XBOX's have serious fps problems on THIS game (yes, it doesn't happen in other games, so it's not THE console problem).
    - Other players are running the game "great" (with some FPS's drop and the excess of tearing)
    - In my case I have the console in Preview release (and since the game has launched, 2 updates from Microsoft have been loaded and didn't improve anything) and I can accept some part of the problem being here.
    - I made the RESET and the problem continues
    - I see some videos on youtube (60fps) and it's clear the game is not running equally on all consoles
    - On my other XBOX S the game runs MUCH better (ok..the GPU of the Slim model is a bit better, but It's not the only reason for the huge improvement)


    I read the developers are trying to improve the FPS on the multiplayer... OK...it's fine...but about the offline?
    I can't even do hotlaps alone in any circuit...it's really that bad. (I have no problems in other car games, like PCars which was really bad on this matter too)

    I'm not demanding the money back or something like that...I just wish the developers look into this and take some measurements to improve the FPS (at least in the hot laps...which doesn't make sense to have frame drops without other cars on track).

    In the meanwhile, I'm fortunate enough to have a XBOX One S to play...but what about all other persons with the same problem?

    Thanks.

    Let's hope the smoothness isn't achieved with stabilizing the frame rate on a lower value.

    Let's cross our fingers.

    It seams to have got really bad since the second update?
    Got so bad for me last night that I had to abandon playing it.
    Silverstone in GT3 class and also in classic F1 in the Ferrari 312. Terrible frame rate drops at Maggots / Beckets corner, which carries on all the way to the Luffield complex. Then seams to clear up on the straight.
    Have also noticed lots of audio "drop outs" if you have the engine sound set to 100%. Drop outs that are remarkably similar to the ones still present in Project Cars. I dropped mine to 95% and it appears to have fixed it.
     
  14. Exup

    Exup Gamer

    Yes, I agree... the frame drops are really weird and unexpected.

    For example: I would expect a big drop with many cars, on a first braking corner... but not on a back straight with no cars in vicinity (or buildings and trees for example).

    How are you finding the Xbox One S, I have the One 1TB version, but after downloading Horizon 3 I only have about 5GB left, I need more space, plus I like the portability of the One S so I can move it from room to room easier and it will fit into my desk easier, I have the wheel in one room and controller in the lounge room so I can just relax on the couch.
    Would you say its a bit quicker or pretty much the same.

    So far I'm pretty happy with the Xbox One S (except the color :-D ).
    Indeed it's a way lot smaller (and the power brick is inside the console), maybe a bit more audible when running.

    The games I play is Project Cars --> Indeed suffer Much less of Frame rate drops in rainy races with several cars (you could notice the difference. it's very clear)
    Regarding Assetto Corsa --> In my case (the game was unplayable with probably 20fps average before) the game is starting to be "acceptable". Still suffer from frame drops (badly) but it's a big difference from before. I'm guessing with the patches will be better.

    If you can make the upgrade, go for it!!
    Please bear in mind the new console doesn't have the Kinnect Port. You must request an adapter to Microsoft (free of charge) and give them the serial numbers of the kinnect and the old Xbox one.

    I seen somewhere on net, might have been eurogamer with Assetto running. The one s was getting on average about 4 to 6 fps more than the Xbox one. Not really enough to warrant trading it in, unless you got a 4K tv then it might be worth it.
     
  18. Theobris

    For me its mostly the size that matters but a few extra fps is also a bonus as is the extra 1tb, I dont use the kinnect and I'll sit on the sideline for a while with AC on the console.

    Why in earth would you want lower resolution in this day and age, its got nothing to do with this gen, all gen should want good resolution. I did a little bit of programming on the Commodore 64, my first game was a racing game of sorts, a white dot in the middle of the screen with two red and white lines moving to make it look like the dot was moving, thank god I've moved up since then, nobody should tolerate jaggies.

    You may see the difference of the Xbox One S here at this video from Digital Foundry:


    On PCars is a big difference.
    Also in Assetto Corsa there is a difference.
     
  21. its the easiest way to improve framerate. i prefer framerate over resolution any day of the week. its nice to have both fps and resolution but if one needs to be sacrificed it should be resolution.

    its that very reason both assetto corsa and project cars run at 900p on xbox to try to hit 60fps
