Red Faction locked in at 30 FPS

The demo has terrible slowdown, under 30 fps. If they pull off fixing that, great, but sinse the demo and final are so close, I doubt it. It takes all the fun out of blowing ppl up w/ the remote explosives when it sputters around 22-25 fps temporarily... not to mention this \'revolutionary\' geo-mod, while nice and all, comes at the expense of realistic character damage. When I blow someone up, I want arms and legs flying, I dont want the guy to fall down and just lay there. After playing the demo, I am only looking foward to the story. The game itself is ok, but nothing new.

Yeah the demo is poor for FPS but the final version has apparently fixed it. Im doubtful like you since they have had so little time to change much from the demo. However I seen the promotional trailer on PSW and thats running smoothly and I couldn\'t spot any slow down (I was looking too and tend to notice these things).

Im still doubtful all will be good, but im still looking forward to this game hoping it will.

who cares if it only runs at 30 fps, as long as it is smooth, what do you expect for a gme with that much physics. It will still look good from what ive seen of the demos, lets just hope they get the game play right, i dont want another mindless blaster.
