Default [ShackNews] Doom 4 Sports Better Graphics Than Rage; Uses id Tech 5
Quote:
Though powered by the same id Tech 5 technology as id's open-world shooter Rage, Doom 4 will be so detailed that it appears to run on "a totally new game engine," according to id co-founder and software engineer John Carmack.

The jump in graphical fidelity comes about as Doom 4 is targeted to run at 30 frames per second, whereas Rage will run at 60 frames per second. Carmack claims this allows id to throw "three times as much horsepower" at Doom 4.

http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/53713


Is anyone looking forward to Doom 4?

30FPS would be okay, although I would prefer 60fps.

I'm pretty sure when they say a 30 hz game, they mean for the console. It would be developer suicide if they capped it on the PC.

You would still see the same amount of frames if V-Sync was on... Your monitor can only refresh so fast. By using V-Sync you can reduce screen tearing and also put a little less stress on your video card.

Disabling vSync still doesn't eliminate the fact that your monitor won't be able to display much more than 60 frames per second anyway.
