I just started the game a few days ago, really big fan especially cause of being able to change quality for performance in the settings but for some reason there's no setting that let's me change it so I'm stuck with getting a bad 30 fps, it makes it hard to get away in night chases and human PvP. I would like some help or some sort of solution please and thank you!
#30 fps and below, Quality mode

What?
round pilot
What?
Is on xbox in advanced settings a draw distance multiplier
In graphics
Or somewhere there
hot kindle
I don't even see an advanced settings
Usually there's something in Video or game but I don't see anything or the sort
sweet palm
did you lower resolution?
hot kindle
So did you try clearing cache
That would lower game quality
round pilot
That would lower game quality
No it doesnt
Some games get FPS etc. problems because of cache files
They start using old files or dont find the correct files, try to open the same two Files who are different and so on
hot kindle
Well Xbox usually has a setting, they have it for Dying Light 2 where you change Quality or Performance based on your preference
hot kindle
I will try it but most likely it won't change anything
round pilot
If not tell me then we look again
hot kindle
Sorry it took me awhile to come back, had to do a 6 hour drive
But there's not even an option to clear cache
I tried changing fov to see and nada
Still getting poor fps
round pilot
@hot kindle cache clear is in your XBOX settings
It has nothing to do with the ingame settings
Every xbox has it
Wait hold on a sec...Xbox cache clear is a bit weird
You have to do following steps
- Turn xbox completely off and wait a minute just to be safe
- Remove the power cable from the xbox
- Press the power button 5-10 times
- Wait 2 minutes
- Plug it back in and turn on again
They removed the manual option in settings
You will keep all your data only temporary system data will be removed
round pilot
No hurry
Sorry idk why microsoft did that
Its literally the standard procedure now
Playstation and PC have normal options for that
This should fix the stuttering
But the 30 FPS are normal in quality mode
If it doesnt help getting stable 30 FPS go performance mode. More frames and picture quality almost the same
round pilot
But Dl3 doesn't support between Quality and Performance
Cant be
Console versions always have a quality and performance mode in their settings
Quality caps at 30 FPS and Performance not
And the beast has it
hot kindle
Nah man I promise you it doesn't
round pilot
It has
hot kindle
I can't show proof rn cause I'm finna gts but in a couple I can show you
I looked everywhere in the dl settings and it just doesn't have it
In dl2 yes, not in dl3
hot kindle
Benchmarks?
round pilot
Yeah benchmarks exist of these and comparison
hot kindle
Idk what benchmark is
round pilot
In depth Tests
hot kindle
Well look man, I look thoroughly in the settings and it's not there
I literally got jumped by two regular schmegular zombies cause my frames were dying
round pilot
@hot kindle wait what xbox are you on again
hot kindle
Series S
round pilot
Thx lemme look quick
hot kindle
Alright
round pilot
Okay my bad
So series s is capped on 30 FPS and has neither quality or performance mode
hot kindle
I know, no clue why tho.
hot kindle
Well the Series S and X are the same thing, just one with more storage and bulky
I don't see why they couldn't just have it the same
hot kindle
Well is there gonna be a fix to this or am I just not gonna be able to enjoy the game indefinitely?
round pilot
Well is there gonna be a fix to this or am I just not gonna be able to enjoy the...
Well regarding FPS and Graphics
There is nothing to fix because its intended.
30 FPS cap with preset graphics
If it stutters check in the XBOX display settings for VRR and the output Signal with Hz
You should choose 1080p or 1440p and 60/120Hz
brittle snow
Well the Series S and X are the same thing, just one with more storage and bulky
They are not, series x is significantly faster
round pilot
X has 12 Teraflops
S has 4 Teraflops
hot kindle
There is nothing to fix because its intended.
30 FPS cap with preset graphics
Not sure why it's intended if Dl2 can do it
If there's "nothing" they can do about it, and this literally makes the game extremely difficult to play, then I'm just gonna refund the game until something happens
Thank you for your help
round pilot
Not sure why it's intended if Dl2 can do it
the beast is very cpu and gpu heavy
so there will most likely be a reason why its capped at 30 fps
old gen players can expect having to play at 30 fps too
hot kindle
the beast is very cpu and gpu heavy
I call bs
The game feels just like dl2 just a different map
round pilot
feeling isnt software
the engine and all is stuffed with more AI and background processes
hot kindle
Literally all they really did is copy and pasted dl2 mechanics, with a different map, weird controls and a truck that doesn't change
round pilot
a slower chip means either stuttering at higher framerates or lowering framerate and stable experience
round pilot
Literally all they really did is copy and pasted dl2 mechanics, with a different...
its not about mechanics
its about engine
hot kindle
Are they on a budget then?
round pilot
no
hot kindle
That makes little sense
round pilot
if you want higher quality and/or higher framerates you need a faster chip
hot kindle
Being able to change from quality and performance should just lower graphics and chunk loading for fps, that's usually how that works
round pilot
they locked the game in a performance mode with 30 fps
hot kindle
That's like half of Xbox's community whose suffering
round pilot
that most likely has reasons because that game runs on an updated engine that is more demanding than dl2 ones
round pilot
That's like half of Xbox's community whose suffering
30 fps is normal for consoles and most of the time used for cinematic games which arent fast paced
and its the similar framerate used in cinemas movies etc.
hot kindle
Dying Light is fast paced though.
round pilot
look the s is slower and weaker than the x
hot kindle
And anyone whose a gamer with skill knows 30 fps is bad
round pilot
30-60 fps are normal for consoles
always has been normal for consoles
and i watched some benchmarks and tests today regarding the xbox s version and in none were stuttering
no graphs showed whacky stuff
hot kindle
Wdym whacky?
round pilot
graphs looking weird
jumping up and down
i did some digging again
the s series is in compariosn to the x series so much weaker that makes it necessary to cap it. you can expect that they either try to optimize it further but with graphic losses to reach 60 fps or keep it that way
hot kindle
I'd rather lose graphics then have to play the game like I'm 80 years old
Which brings me to another unrelated question;
Why did Techland make the controls weird?
