Do you prefer higher resolution , higher fps or more detail?

Native resolution for the screen isn't necessarily the metric you should choose, there are a ton of 1080p 27" monitors out there.

PPI is what you're looking for, even 720p is acceptable if you're sitting far enough away from the screen and it's not larger than a certain size.

I have an overclocked 6700k and 980ti and most games barely get past 1080p at 60fps. PC is suffering from bad developers just as much as console. You can't fucking play any game like TW3 at 60fps without a ridiculously expensive PC.
>>
>>320278292
That's also because some devs actually make options settings where ultra isn't equivalent of console settings.

In TW3 console settings are something about medium with ultra textures, which my 7950 is able to play in 45-60 fps.
>>
>>320278783
Yes but games like TW3 and F4 still look like dogshit at ultra and barely run on any machine. Also what's the point in having a PC where performance is dropping below 45fps? All platforms are different shades of shit.
>>
>>320274453
>>320274445
Basically these.

If your framerate is sub-optimal, drop details until it's a steady match for your monitor's refresh rate (usually 60hz or120hz or 144hz)

If you're already on the lowest settings and framerate is still sub-optimal look up if there are any tweaks that can further improve performance.

If all else fails lower the resolution until optimal framerate is achieved. If framerate is still sub-optimal after all settings are on their lowest and all performance tweaks have been attempted and the resolution is at it's lowest, consider upgrading your PC.

1080p is already not that much of an improvement over 720p, even for PC gaming. Main reason I got a 1080p screen is cause of sweet 120Hz.

I prefer games that aren't a bud ridden mess or incomplete. Games that aren't obviously finished and then have portions of them taken away from the final product to be sold months on down the line as content that was created while production of the game was in the final phases. I prefer games that don't require you to pay for a different weapon skin or character color when you could just press a different button for a color change.

Some games don't bother me when they dip below 60fps, like GTA V still looks and feels great at 45 fps, which only happens when i'm in michael's house or at ammunation for some reason.

Driving around on ultra I see 60 fps with occasional dips to 50, which i have zero issue with, and i honestly wouldn't notice if not for the fps counter.

But other games, i seem to notice it more. Fallout 4, for example, is super noticeable when it gets down to 45 fps in downtown and it bothers me. There's a slight input lag so maybe that's it. Also racing games need to be 60fps.

If a game is running less smooth than I'd like, i usually start by turning shadows down to medium, and then i'll turn to textures. I keep distant objects maxed just because i hate pop-in.

I never do less than 1080p though. That's just bullshit.

1. Framerate*
2. Resolution up to native of your screen
3. All other graphics aka "detail"

*The only critical with this formula is that point 1 has no cap so you'd have to make all games run at infinite frames in theory. In theory more frames are always better - yes, past the refresh rate of your screen (because input responsiveness and frame latency). In practice you have to compromise and that compromise is subjective.

Personally, I believe that once your game achieves 100 fps on low range systems you've got the green light to add more detail for higher settings. Your low settings should definitely run at 100 fps on weak systems though. For reference, right now I believe people on APUs and recent laptops should be table to run your game at 100 fps ON LOW SETTINGS. It's okay if low settings look bad, their explicit purpose should be running on weak hardware, not impressing anyone.

See Crysis' low settings for how low you can really go. Low shadows = no shadows. But at the same time it's a game that missed its contemporary hardware window and only got playable years after its release for most people. As I said, that decision is subjective. They felt they were better off catering to high end only at launch and it definitely paid off, despite what EA would have you believe.

1. You ALWAYS play at you're monitor/TV's resolution, that's what a resolution is for and a good example of how little console shitters now about "graphics"
2. Frame-rate should be at a constant 60fps for a 60hz monitor and 120fps for a 120hz.
3. Detail is nice but solid frames are more important. Depth of Field/Antialiasing/Particle Effects are the first you should turn off if you cant maintain desired FPS.

And most importantly, console shitters cant even change most if any of the above, so therefore it is inferior to a PC.

I have this weird obsession to have minimum 60fps. So for example if I have to crank the settings down so the game runs at like 100 fps 99% of the time but has this small bit where it drops to 61 fps 1% of the time I HAVE to do that. I can't stand anything lower.

Also I play games like cs go without v sync even though there's a lot of screen tearing at 250 fps just so I can have that uber smooth 3.5ms gameplay.

I was responding to your claim that Undertale is the best PC game, which it isn't according to metacritic. You can take your lumps like a man or you can pretend that everyone reading that was supposed to divine that you meant "only 8th-gen games", even though you didn't say that.

Try playing TW3 without drops in framerate.
Now try playing it in a resolution higher than 1080p (which is the only way to get rid of jaggies since the devs are too incompetent to include proper AA) at anything higher than 20fps. I'll wait.

Absolutely nothing on the market will give you that.

There obviously has to be sacrifices in order to get constant framerate on all platforms.

But they do scan in objects and faces into the game and then scale the polycount as needed. Fox Engine could do way more but it banks on lighting and textures to convey the photorealism.

No shit. The interior isn't render intensive so they can the engine can affort to load in a higher res model.

It's not like they use the same model for DD in cinematics that they use for in game.

>2. Frame-rate should be at a constant 60 fps for a 60 Hz monitor and 120 fps for a 120 Hz.

Not true. Higher framerates can be felt due to frame latency. Frame latency is the time between the last drawn frame and the next screen refresh. 60 Hz means that your screen refreshes every 16.67 ms.

>0 ms: first screen refresh, a previously drawn frame 1 with a tear to an incomplete frame 2 is displayed. frame 3 begins to render.
>12 ms: frame 3 is completed. frame 2 can be discarded at this point, if that hasn't already happened. the GPU begins to render frame 4.
>16.67 ms: second screen refresh, frame 3 with a tear to the completed section of frame 4 is displayed.

In this example the worst possible latency of frame 3 is 16.67 ms since it uses some information from 0 ms. The latency of frame 4 is at worst

>16.67 - 12 ms = 4.67 ms

The actual felt latency comes down to how much of frame 4 was in fact completed. If frame 4 dominates then your experience will be closer to 4.67 ms, if frame 3 fills most of the screen then you will feel closer to 16.67 ms!

Those 16.67 ms are what you get when you activate VSync and your GPU only draws one frame per Hz (then waits for refresh). On the other hand, getting only 4.67 ms latency on every refresh would require a high framerate:

>16.67 ms / 4.67 ms = 3.57
>60 fps * 3.57 = 214.13 fps

That's a STABLE 214 fps, an idealized scenario in many ways. Meanwhile in the real world Most people who "try to hit 60 fps" actually play with something close to the full 16.67 ms. Now imagine your screen had 16.67 ms of input delay. Displays like that existed in the early TFT days and they felt terrible to use. With input delay we insist on minimizing it, buying 2 ms screens these days. And then we display frames with 16.67 ms of latency and think nothing of it.

tl;dr: Your screen refresh rate should not be your fps target. You should aim way higher than 60, regardless of refresh rate.

this is where your argument goes bad. developing games for high end gaming creates new tech that can be handed down to consoles if you are designing things to run on consoles then you have to seriously take hardware power into consideration when designing it. meaning you know you cant do x becasue theres no way it would be able to run on consoles.
