Xbox players disappointed that Redfall will run at just 30fps on launch Arkane Studios\/ BethesdaRedfall has promised to be one of this year\u2019s big releases, but developers Arkane have now confirmed that at launch, only a 30-frame-per-second \u201cquality\u201d mode will be available for Xbox players. Arkane has said that Redfall will be their most-supported game post-launch, and it looks like it\u2019s going to need that support, because 60fps won\u2019t be available for Xbox players until after the game drops. Instead, Arkane has promised that a 60fps \u201cperformance mode\u201d will be added sometime via an update after launch, though they haven\u2019t given it a specific date or time. Xbox players react to Redfall running worse than trailers on launch The promise of bringing 60fps to the game later has done little to reassure fans, who quickly let their opinions be heard. To make matters worse, players compared the news to previous promises made by the Xbox team that 60fps would be \u201cthe standard output\u201d for all their games. One commenter said: \u201cThe game looks like it\u2019s made of clay. How did you not manage to even get 4k 60? Performance should easily be able to do 1440 at 120. What is using up so many resources you couldn\u2019t do this?\u201d Another said: \u201cNobody wants to game at 30 FPS my guys. Nobody. I would take 1080 60FPS over 4K 30FPS 100% of the time.\u201d Players also pointed out that the original trailers for the game, which feature the Xbox branding prominently, are all in 60 frames per second. Several people even said that they\u2019d prefer the game to be delayed instead of releasing it without proper tech, with one commenter stating: \u201cDelay it again. This isn\u2019t acceptable for first party to have 30 fps as the only option on the \u201cworlds most powerful console\u201d, and this is from a genuine Xbox gamer that wants better from the platform.\u201d Another player demanded: \u201cDelay the launch till the 60fps performance mode is ready. Ridiculous to not launch with it in my opinion.\u201d Arkane is no stranger to troubled launches. Both Dishonored 2 and Deathloop faced several challenges getting off the ground, and it may be the case that Arkane and Xbox want a smoother ride for what they hope to be a big hit. But it\u2019s clear that the community backlash is larger than they anticipated, and the hype for Redfall will definitely suffer as a result.
