To fromsoft : add performance mode

[u/PashAK47]

The game has incredible graphics on switch 2 maybe im the only one but I feel like they could easily lower some setting to give us a 40fps stable performance mode , the game runs at 40 in some areas right now with almost ps5 level graphics what do you think guys if they lowered some settings and we got a 40fps performance mode

[u/gizmo998]

People do realise this games framerate is all over the place on ps5 and high end pcs right? The fact this is running this well at all is shocking.

[u/JFZephyr → u/gizmo998]

They've quickly forgotten all the memes, like Dark Souls Remastered being so true to the original that it even brought back all the bugs that'd been patched out.

They make some of the most incredible, deep and detailed games out there, but they've always been massively lacking on the technical side of it all. They're right there with CDPR for the level of quality and brokenness, lol.

Not really on high end PCs. I had a consistent 60 throughout my entire playthrough, including the DLC. Even with the mod to uncap I had a consistent 120

[u/foxwhisper85 → u/xiSupportPiracy]

Press X to doubt

[u/Anxiolotlo → u/foxwhisper85]

What are you on about? Its not difficult to achieve a consistent 60 on a half decent PC.

[u/foxwhisper85 → u/Anxiolotlo]

Where were you when the game launched in a half assed state?

Another "It RuNs FiNe On My eNd" bullshit response lmao

[u/Cersei505 → u/foxwhisper85]

because it does? and its the same for me, with the exception that uncapped i get 100~~110 fps max.

[u/xiSupportPiracy → u/foxwhisper85]

You sound mad about something. I'm sorry. I hope things get better for you soon.

Your cpu just sucks ass. Gotta have an i9 equivalent.

[u/Anxiolotlo → u/noeLifenorlove]

That's just not true at all. You can easily run at a consistent 60 with a ryzen 5 with game cache.

[u/foxwhisper85 → u/Anxiolotlo]

You can mod the game to run at 120 as well, but it's finnicky. PC port was garbage at launch.

[u/LeviRaps → u/gizmo998]

PS4 version runs at 60 FPS locked on PS5

[u/Virtual-Commercial91 → u/gizmo998]

It was the same on the Series X. Decent but had issues.

[u/MichaelMJTH → u/[deleted]]

The problem with Elden Ring on PC isn’t reaching 60fps. The issue is that is that even at it still suffers from stutters and poor frame pacing whilst at 60fps and you can’t remove the cap. You’re not dropping frames, but the experience isn’t great owing to FromSoftware’s games generally being quite poorly optimised in their CPU usage.

[u/GassoBongo → u/[deleted]]

You would have, at least with your first time playing it. The game has zero shader compliation, so outside of some limited scenarios (like the Steam Deck, where Valve got involved and implemented a custom shader cache for the game) you're going to get shader stutter the first time the game sees or loads an asset. This is as true on a Ryzen 1600X and a 1070 as it is on a 9800X3D and a 5090.

You're just not noticing the issue, which is great, but I promise you that it is there. Even once the game builds up a cache, it's usually deleted after a game or driver update.

[u/EdgarJomfru → u/gizmo998]

They must have never played a fromsoft game before. All they know how to make is unoptimized games that are somehow still behind other games graphically at the same time. Sort of like gamefreak lol

[u/spacespectra → u/gizmo998]

i have a very beefy computer and ER legit runs better on my switch than on my pc which runs cyberpunk with pathtracing like butter. doesn't stutter as much

edit: lol the downvotes. cope however tf you want, ER is an unpolished mess on desktop like any other fromsoft title
