Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 campaign can hardly hit 60fps on PS4 & Xbox

4.6
Black Ops 3’s campaign does not adhere to the golden 60fps rule Call of Duty games have always followed.

Digital Foundry published its analysis of the campaign of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3. In it, the site reveals that the game struggles to reach 60fps most of the time.

Having tested both the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game, Digital Foundry reveals that for most cut-scenes, Black Ops 3 mostly maintains 1080p quality. For gameplay segments, however, things get much worse.

The Xbox One version targets a resolution of 1600×900 for gameplay, but rarely hits it according to the site – running mostly at 1280×900 in= reality. The PlayStation 4 version fares better with its mostly-active 1080p lock, dropping down to 1360×1080 occasionally.

Frame-rate is a disappointment across the board, especially for a Call of Duty game. Digital Foundry reports that despite dynamic resolutions, Black Ops 3 reaches 60fps only during spots where combat is not a major component.

“On the face of it, the raw metrics we drew from our captures don’t look so bad – PS4 hands in an average frame-rate of 51fps, Xbox One is at 49fps,” the site noted.

“And it’s Xbox One where we see the most extreme scenarios where Treyarch’s precarious balancing act doesn’t really work out. A frantic shoot-out defending a control room is a low point: while PS4 sticks close to 60fps at various moments throughout the battle, Microsoft’s system frequently struggles to rise above the 35-45fps.”

Dan- And this is the problems with consoles. It's 2015 and they can't even manage 60FPS at native 1080p.


want to know why they cant its cause they use amd(suck a bad produce for cpus since they are getting sued for false advertisement) the one and ps4 are using the worst if not one of the worst cpus as its an old one plus their consoles no big deal they should of never been 60fps anyways but yeah its sad that even for a weak game like cod/bf/bf(both battle field and battle front are bf) cant really hit that 60mark unless theirs nothing around.


Microsoft and Sony will have tested dozens/hundreds of hardware configurations and CHOSE the current ones. o you think they blindly believed the advertising and didn't test it? They want your money and don't particularly care about your enjoyment - you all complain but you never stop buying things from them.

If its the cheapest one then that's the one they bought because this POS1 cost to much as is because of all the useless crap they put in it making it an entertainment center not a game console. I wouldn't be surprised if they only ran 1 test and is passed on a game like minecraft so they bought it.

OT: Cheap cards = new gen console. Graphics look better but false advertisement everywhere. The game developers should just stop trying & the community should just stop looking forward to 1080p 60fps to the max with no lag or anything because that's not gonna happen unless you get a nice pc.

I don't think that's too bad compared to fallout 4.
