Shitty v-sync on PS4 causes it to lock at 20fps if it drops a single frame below 30 during cutscenes because of double-buffered v-sync instead of triple-buffered. Gameplay drops to 25fps too.

Unlocked framerate on XB1 causes shitty frame pacing which makes it stutter in both cutscenes and gameplay. And no, just because the framerate is higher =/= better, especially in this case.

So basically, choose between choppy cutscenes with dips to 25ish in gameplay, or a lot stuttering in both cutscenes and gameplay.

Finished game patch when?

Why is this so black?
These days you can't expect a game to be actually finished until like 8 months after it's come out.

Well, probably a good thing it'll be a few weeks before I can get it then.

dragon ball xenoverse worked when it released, aside from a few server problems (that only happened because dimps had no idea it would be so popular)

It was a hyperbole. I know there's games that work on day 1; it's just getting a bit pathetic that most of the big games have issues on release.

Is it ironic that Cyberpunk 2077 (CDPR's other game in development) release date is "when it's ready"?

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
I've learnt to just live with this tbh. As a developer you can't fix everything for day one, games are really complicated so to expect them to be perfect day one is silly. As long as the developer swiftly releases patches I'm cool

I don't understand why they couldn't just do 720p on the Xbox One and 900p on the PS4 with a better framerate and more visual flair.  1080p isn't worth a damn if the game runs like shit.

The resolution isn't the problem. The core performance on each is fine; they both need triple-buffered v-sync.

If the XB1 side constantly stuttered then it'd be accurate

The game never stutters during actual gameplay on the XB1, and the increases in fps don't matter since it's not an online game.

People are surprised consoles that were already outdated the moment they came out, are having issues with games?

I'm shocked

The core performance is fine. The game just needs some fixes (triple-buffered v-sync instead of double-buffered on PS4 so it doesn't lock at 20fps in cutscenes. XB1 version has no v-sync at all, which is why it stutters).
