Hard drives with more data or with data scattered more widely across the disk take more time to retrieve the necessary data and the game may stutter or freeze while the I/O process completes. This would explain why occurrence depends on individual consoles. Fallen Order can’t load assets fast enough to keep up with gameplay. After all, one of the initial selling points for consoles in comparison to PCs was that a game played the same on a given console platform without the player having to fiddle around with settings to get it to run properly.ĭigital Foundry hypothesizes that the stutters and stalls are rooted in I/O (input/output) issues. You and I may both be playing Fallen Order on a One X and I might experience more of these problems that you. The interesting (and discouraging) thing about these hang-ups is that they appear to depend more on the individual console than on the console platform.
They don’t occur as often on the advanced consoles and they happen most often on the One S but no console avoids the problem entirely. Game stalled while detail in the rear doorway is loaded Digital Foundryįreezes, stutters and stalls (oh my!) are Fallen Order’s most disruptive technical problems. Frame rate is so erratic in performance mode that you may prefer the smoother and more consistent gameplay offered by Fallen Order’s quality mode.
It makes for noticeably uneven gameplay on both the One X and Pro. Much of the time frame rate hovers in the 40 to 60 fps range with frequent variations up and down.
Sometimes it’s at or very close to 60 fps and sometimes it can drop as low as 30 fps. This is great if frame rate can stick close to 60 fps but that’s not what’s happening with Fallen Order. The One S falls below the PS4 and gameplay can be choppy.įrame rate is uncapped in performance mode on the advanced consoles. The PS4 doesn’t hold to 30 fps as well as the Pro, but it doesn’t do badly either. The advanced consoles hit the 30 fps target most of the time with occasional brief drops of a few frames. Performance mode frame rates are far from ideal on the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X Digital Foundryįrame rate is capped at 30 fps on the base consoles and in quality mode on the Pro and One X.
