I personally think it’s disgusting that loyal console players have been dropped by Frontier. And apparently a lack of support, the amount of crashes and load issues is pathetic - would have been nice to have fixed these glitches prior to abandoning us console players. Having it on the console works and should be supported, it brings in more players. I have never been a fan of cash cow pc gaming.
Lack of support
- Thread starter ZrantaGoD
- Start date
That by fact simply not true.
The old consoles huge perhaps not but the new one definitely.
It’s just the the laziness to bring a quality good game which is polished on consoles. Just the state now is simply on pc not optimized, framedrops are still present.
Nothing do to with consoles weakness is just the weakness of the moneypocket to overcome the laziness.
I mean for sure there are enough ‚fans who can live with a half optimized game.
Maybe, only I know the fact - today, many games using proton + Linux run faster then native on Windows.
As for Elite, agree, it could be fixed more and some progress is going.
About consoles, I explicit said "at required quality". This means, you would have to downgrade quality below markets standards to run it there as I did last year on my PC until latest fixes. So I guess it wouldn't pass shop's quality checks.
Have you seen the rip off price of console games compared to PC?
Simple fact is im afraid that they wont spend money on something that not 'If' but 'when' (anything other than Ody) will be closed down.

with the likes of GeForce now high end pc gpu performance, device requirements for gaming are becoming far more affordable and that is worth looking into if on a budgetrigards 
you no longer need an expensive machine really...…
now you can fully enjoy all the bugs in high performance mode at a relatively low cost...….
personally I prefer the "heat" the gpu gives off when its cold...……...
but may well be the future for summer gaming when heat is the enemy of all things pc

Just for your interest elite is on PlayStation plus Programm for free with a simple untrue fact
Evolving narrative on consoles. Yup totally evolving with nothing to come to consoles
Sorry but this is simply a lie. And taste like a scam.
Sure it’s for free but this adversiment is not true.

Report it to Sony then?
Yeah, that needs to be fixed (like alot of other things). Reporting it will do more good than posting it here though.
I'm personallly taking the fact Elite has been put on PS+ as a positive. I mean, Frontier basically *has to keep the console servers on for the foreseeable now. I don't play anything like as regularly as I used to pre consoles getting chucked under the bus, but I still enjoy the odd evening behind the hotas, reliving happier times. Ever since "that announcement" I've been concerned that they would actually pull the plug altogether.
From just getting odd to run on a 1080ti, i'm actually thinking not (ps5 that is, ps4 no chance).
Sure the vast majority of the game would easily hit 60fps.. but there would be huge framerate dips the moment you got to any odd specific, and given things like digital foundry exist just to report on these things.. my gut says without alot more optimisation work, odd would be well over the extreme ridicule bar...
Unless they capped the fps at 30 maybe.
It is very demeaning though that console players are allowed to maintain standards, and pc players can be delivered to without care. The frontier way.

For a bit of context here, the PS5 has been indicated to be running something similar to a RTX 2070. So if a 1080ti isn't great, it's not going to go well on console either. A 30 FPS limit would work, but you'd that's what games like Cyberpunk offer in quality mode. You'd still have a 60FPS performance mode.
So yeah, chances are if they had released to console, updates 12-17 would still be focused on optimisation.
If 60fps performance mode was possible, it probably would have been released on consoles (and not made the minimum spec on pc a few multiples of what they sold as the spec. Though seems likely they had every intention to release on console at some point, so they probably were just projecting to pc the amount of optimisation they were trying / needed to make consoles....)
True enough. I seem to remember that they even said that 30 FPS was their goal when they made their statement about the performance target after Odyssey released and it was clear how much needed doing.
That would have been difficult to sell on console. I'm quite confident that anyone unhappy with Odyssey not coming to console would be equally unhappy with the state of it if it did get there.
I wouldn't be- especially coming from the 120fps offered in performance mode by Doom Eternal on PS5.

I don't think that was their goal, that's what they said in public to excuse the fact they couldn't make it that far. They would have called it years ago if they were truly happy with what they launched with.... until the end of last year they were still improving performance on pc.. They may have also said in some official capacity after that (this year) they had finally stopped.. could be wrong though.
Yeah, probably why they never bothered trying. From starting in the late 90's.. i still find any conversation today about performance a little redundant.. but that's the standard that everyone is measured to... i guess with consoles, there's a higher expectation in exchange for only targeting a fixed hardware set. Or it could have been the series s... yeah zero chance on that spec.. which means only half the next gen consoles and more complicated excuses.. well if you think about it.. they could have only done 1/4 console platforms anyway (ps5, no such thing as a series x exclusive?) so maybe that also contributed to the complete no show..
I run the game in 2k with the settings maxed out and get 140 FPS on a RTX 3060 Ti. It drops to around 120 FPS on ground/exobiology missions.
I wonder where this concept is coming from.
There are many, many players running Odyssey on PCs with specs significantly lower than those of the PS5.
I have seen one of those people. They play the game at what I am estimating to be 1fps. When I watch one of their videos they sometimes post for help on something I can't help but wince. I can't fathom how they can tolerate that. But they do.
