Dana Jan from Ready at Dawn, the studio behind The Order: 1886 said the PS4 eclusive will be locked at 30 FPS said it's locking the game to 30 FPS to give it a "filmic look" but isn't going lower because framerates of 24 don't "feel good".
It's also known the game is going to run at theater resolutions of 2.40:1.
Jan also commented that running at 60 FPS would cause the game to "end up looking like something on the Discovery Channel, like an HDTV kind of segment or a sci-fi original movie maybe. Which doesn't quite have the kind of look and texture that we want from a movie. The escapism you get from a cinematic film image is just totally different than what you get from television framing, so that was something we took into consideration."
I find this to be a total crock.
If you can't get the game to run at 60 then fine. I'm not going to crucify a console game for running at a solid 30, as I'm pretty much used to it by now. However, if you CAN get it to run at 60 but are limiting it to 30 because you want it to look like a movie, maybe you should just make a fucking movie.
