MoFodium Chloride Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I've noticed in all the trailers for GTA IV that the frame rate is really poor yet no one seems to notice this. Don't know, maybe it could be because they have slowed things down just for the trailers. e.g. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobbie Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Well most of the action in the trailers have been slowed down which would actually highlight any fps drop, which i havnt noticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werenotfugazi Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 The problem lies with video compression for the internet, not the game itself. Those videos you see on YouTube are not a good representation of the games fluid motions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleansation Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 There are noticable slowdowns in the vids and no it's not just because they are compressed.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gourangalol Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 All previewers have stated how smooth the FPS are even in busy actions such as street shootouts. R* wouldnt sh*t on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny_zoo Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Hope so. i really want this game to be great. The game will be great, besides GTA has never been known to have the best graphics and frame rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werenotfugazi Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 There are noticable slowdowns in the vids and no it's not just because they are compressed.. You're right about that. It could also be the capture software, the video card, and all manner of crazy sh*t. I have no doubts that the game will ship in good shape.

SCLASS Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I watched trailer 4 and got worried , particulalrly when the cars in the POV view smashes through the roadblock...however, I watched a youtube vid of the same trailer and there was no slowdown....its obviously not the game but the encoding. I too was quite 'picky' about this issue., but am confident there will be no issues.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxPowers87 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I saw the commercial on television and it looks pretty bad. Framerates look slower President Bush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YukiEiri Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I truly wonder how someone can say that GTA IV has poor framerate when we can be 100% sure that he has NOT played a second the game itself?! o_O If the vid is laggy on theyre respective crappy computers, it does not mean that the game itself has any issues. >P My two years old laptop had horrible issues when I tried to view the first trailer on it, but with my other com's all trailers work perfectly with no issues whatsoever. C'mon, someone please make up a device that blocks stupid people from using computers or internet and whining "I watched the VIDEO and it lagged, so the game has framerate issues... am n00b" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are truely a dumbass. Well I can't be blamed on that now can I? Basic line is that it's a video, it has nothing to do with the games framerate. And just out of a curiosity, where does the video have slowdown? Just want to see it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
