The point is... you have the PS5 version running at solid 60fps before the patch and now it is suffering with frame rate drops after the patch... and Dark says it will be sorted out in time... it is really weird because it was not a issue to be sorted until few days ago.
The PS5 version was not running at a solid 60fps before the patch.

So what would have happened had DF never mentioned it and it was never viewed by 600,000 people?

Eh - more importantly - who cares? Did it affect gameplay?

I could see if this was a defect/bug causing direct impact to enjoyment of the game - but this was a cutscene of a specific car model - and was only displayed for all of barely one second.

The fact that everyone blew this miniscule "defect" completely and utterly out of proportion up into something idiotic in support of graphical comparison between these consoles is just a tad insane IMHO. Anyone with a basic understanding of the capabilities of both of these consoles should know this was an obvious miss/defect in the game.

At the end of all of this - this "issue" is inconsequential to overall the end-state of the game. Yet many spent reams of chatter and actually harassing DF for what is ultimately a complete non-event.

Quality mode:
Targets 60 FPS and PS5|Series X mostly deliver.

Performance mode:
- All 3 consoles give the best performance in this mode. Very stable with very minor slowdown.

Now both modes seems to have framerate issues to reach 60fps.

You know how it works, that is not classed as solid.

Patches giveth and patches taketh away. In all seriousness this happens a lot with patches, where some things are fixed and some things get broken. Yes, the dev. should of caught this before sending out the patch, but things slip by and not noticed until gamers or folks like DF call these things out.

This game was DOA on PC. Feel like a fucking retard buying it after knowing Dirt 4 was total shit. This game is somehow worse than Dirt 4. Less content less features Looks like trash and runs like it too.
 
The same Xbox fanboys did before the generation even start.
At least Sony fanboys have real evidences.
I mean I thought the same thing, that the Xbox would walk all over ps5 in every aspect. The specs were evidence.

It’s a more interesting comparison than I thought, but at the end of the day the Xbox still has higher potential and I think that’ll show with tailor made software.

I don’t have a dog in the race, I buy all the consoles so it’ll be interesting to see how the situation changes.

The only specs are not evidence at all. If people give the right attention, there were serious developers who said to be cautious about it. But too many given more credit to the PR speak.

If Microsoft had less SKUs to target there would be less developers that screw this up.
Come on now - this has NOTHING to do with SKUs.

Game developers/companies are paid quite a handsome sum to be able to create these games. The game developer/company choose which consoles to port/target. And as part of that job - performing basic and appropriate QA, testing, and validating their games run with correct build targets should be expected..

If they can't handle it - they should find other work.

If the game isn't ready - don't release it. Or at LEAST release the game with a known defects list with an ETA as to when they'll be fixed.

This is the basics of software development 101. Managing expectations is part of the job. Throwing shit over the fence and letting other people, the public, and YT influencers do your job for you is just plain lazy.

CPDR would've done well to heed this advice - look where they're at now with one of the most hyped games of the decade....

Well now it turns out that PS5 has a performance issue on one of its modes. I guess the XSX version is the best now. Now lets see what conclusions you draw from that.
Again, is there any evidence of that claim? AFAIK nobody has provided any evidence that's true

Was good, work on other platform issues, now bad.

I think its obvious what that means, like with Valhalla. But I'll let you and others like you draw the conclusion that helps you sleep at night.

Many PS5 owners report that Dirt 5 has frequent and random framrate drops in 60fps mode only. It happend with the latest update and wasn't addressed by Codemasters nor DF.

I wonder how many people use the 120fps mode on this on either the xbox or playstation? The reduction in graphics were too much so 60fps seemed like the best choice even with vrr of the xbox and a compatible screen.
