PS3 Framerate issues...

[Pimpton23]

are bad. Really bad at times. So bad that it ends up effecting my shot sometimes. Is anybody else experiencing this? I pray that EA releases a patch that fixes this soon. I love everything else about this game, and I am still very much diggin' it like crazy. But if this issue isn't fixed with the first patch, I'm going to be forced to buy the competition and give them a try.

Also, after quarters, is music supposed to play to go along wth the highlights? It only does for like one quarter, then silence for the rest of them. Just curious if there is an audio issue as well. Other than that I have no issues. Can an EA Dev help me out on this, though? Will this issue be fixed, because it damn near cripples my experience some games. Thanks, and kudos for taking Live in the direction that it needed to go!

I didn't notice anything like this in the demo.

Are you talking about the demo or the full game?

And before you buy the competition make sure you check that forum for framerate issues...

Re: PS3 Framerate issues...

The IGN review did mention that the PS3 version is noticeably worse than the 360 version... But people who have played it here claim it's not bad at all. And apparently Mike or someone from the development team also claimed that the frame rate issue had been resolved for the retail release (though I don't have a link to an actual quote).

So I'm not sure what to believe at this point. After all of the assurances we've been given on this forum I'll be pretty disappointed to say the least if I end up paying for a technically flawed product.

I mean, it's almost 2010... Is it really that hard to develop a game for PS3?

I'm talking about the actual retail game. I picked it up today and have played 3 games on 8 minute quarters. Inbounding the ball, going for a rebound, shooting long range shots tend to bring up framerate issues for some reason.

I don't know if only certain games do this, or if it is random copies of the game that have this problem, but they are bad at times. Heck, I'd even venture to say that they are worse at times than what the demo was doing for the PS3 version.

I remember seeing that quote and thought that would all but guarentee us a solid game. But that isn't the case (at least not for all of the discs perhaps). I really don't know if these will be isolated incidents and/or if it will vary on different PS3 systems or different discs. I just don't see how (or why) some people would experience it and not others.

Re: PS3 Framerate issues...

23 has given a lot of input about this game and I believe he has the PS3 version...not once did I hear him mention framerate problems...23?

Re: PS3 Framerate issues...

You guys have seen my videos that I put up

The game wasnt made on the PS3 so im sure the 360 is smoother, but the final is nothing like the demo

Again, you've seen my uploads... tell me what you see?

I understand, man. But I'm telling you it gets really bad at times. Maybe these are only isolated problems on certain discs. But the copy I got is so bad I don't know what I'm going to do if EA doesn't address this. Again, I love everything else about this game, but the framerate issues at times are unacceptable.

Can a dev please tell me if we can expect a patch to fix these random incidents?

Re: PS3 Framerate issues...

I had it once I reported in the dynasty ASG when CPU went into a huddle of guys at the rim.. other than that the only glitchy thing i've seen is the end of qtr replays at times

They should patch it up though if it gets as bad as you're experiencing.. Im having a ball

Re: PS3 Framerate issues...

i would tend to trust a guy with 29k+ post more than one with 24. but i guess we'll see when i get my copy.

Re: PS3 Framerate issues...

lol man that doesnt mean anything at all. He may very well be having these issues but im not and as you can see from my uploads, you see what im seeing

Re: PS3 Framerate issues...

Maybe it has something to do with the latest system update? There was update 3.0, and then they recently released update 3.01 for anyone that was experiencing issues with Drake's Fortune. Which one do you have Pimpton?

It's not a matter of trust, man. I have no need to lie. Check out all of my posts that I have made since I joined. They've all been in the Live 10 forums. I joined specifically because I was so excited about this year's game, and I still very much am.

But the framerate issues for this game that I have are atrocious as times. Yet, I still love it despite this flaw. That should tell you how much fun this title is.


*I also have FW Version 3.01 for my PS3, the latest update that was available.*

Re: PS3 Framerate issues...

I just got a PM from stephensonmc, and he said that they will look into the matter ASAP and see about fixing it. Hopefully, it doesn't effect too many people. But it is nice to know that EA will be looking into it and trying to do something about it.

Again, don't let my thread deter you from buying this game-it is AMAZING. But I imagine that since I do have a framerate issue with mine, then some others who pick-up this game might have the same exact issues. It seems to be a random bug, so here's hoping EA can get it patched as soon as possible for those of us that do have this problem.
