Talk:Frame rate

It would be nice if somebody with an english version of Windows could provide a screenshot of the Guild Wars desktop shortcut's properties window, to add to this article. :) --Eightyfour-onesevenfive 23:54, 25 February 2006 (CST)
 * Does an article exist for the properties screen? I know there are some userful ones.  -password "xyz" and -perf being the two that I use.  Anyone know of other handy ones that could go into an article? --Barek 03:25, 26 February 2006 (CST)
 * There was talk about it a while ago. I don't remember the name of the article though.  Karlos might, I seem to recall that he was in the discussion too, back in September or so.  --Rainith 10:29, 26 February 2006 (CST)


 * Indeed I do. :) It's in Command line. --Karlos 10:45, 26 February 2006 (CST)


 * D'oh! *smacks head* I knew that. At least I did as soon as I saw your edit.  :P  --Rainith 10:51, 26 February 2006 (CST)

Heh, I'd say below 30 FPS is unacceptable. --Fyren 16:37, 16 September 2006 (CDT)


 * Well, it's highly subjective. That's why I tried to phrase it as vague as possible, originally ("in general, about..."). 20 to 25 FPS is what I mostly read as the playable minimum for FPS games. You can of course play with a way lower frame rate, but I wouldn't consider that fun anymore. --84-175 (talk) 18:04, 16 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Kitty changed the line to say "below 15 is unacceptable" from the 20 that was there before. --Fyren 18:44, 16 September 2006 (CDT)
 * maybe kitty found 16-20 workable...I demand an average(can be fake) to be put up!Onlyashadow, Top 100 11:26, 20 October 2006 (CDT)
 * You'd be appalled when, at times, I run the game at 3 fps. -- Dashface [[Image:Dashface.png]] 02:55, 21 January 2007 (CST)
 * I regularly run the game at between 5 and 7 FPS. Framerate is less important to me than lack of lag (the former affects how nice the game looks, the latter makes gameplay stuttery and generally rubbish). Cynical 17:50, 26 January 2007 (CST)
 * That's a pretty silly statement. Frame rate doesn't affect how nice your game looks. Your graphics options do. Frame rate is how fluid the frame transitions are. The frames don't look worse with a lower framerate. If you play with a framerate of 5, you get 5 frames per second, or one frame every 200 milliseconds. That's 200 milliseconds of visual latency to add on top of your network latency, so if you care for latency, 5 frames per second definitely isn't good. mikkel 17:15, 18 May 2007 (CDT)
