Released earlier this week Mafia II: Definitive Edition It turned out to be full of bugs, but this is only one of the problems. Users who have already played a remaster also complain about falling frame rates, and drawdowns are observed randomly on all platforms at once. Channel Vg tech I decided to check whether everything is so bad with performance by comparing the speed of all console versions of the updated Mafia II. The result was depressing.
To begin with, it should be said that claimed by the developers 4K there are no consoles. Xbox One X renders picture in 3200 x 1800 pixels, on PlayStation 4 Pro the resolution is 2560 x 1440 pixels with the ability to downgrade to 1080p when disabling system supersampling, and versions for regular Xbox One and PS4 work in 900p and 1080p respectively.
As for performance, some strange things are happening with the game. Where standard consoles show 30 FPS, versions for the Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 Pro fail for unexplained reasons up to 20-25 frames. An example of this behavior: entering the tunnel at the interval 1: 00-1: 10 video.
In this case, the opposite situation is observed.when, when driving through the city streets on the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro, the game gives out 30 FPS, and on ordinary consoles, at the same moments, noticeable drawdowns are up to 25 FPS. It could be said that the remaster is having problems with rendering open spaces, however drawdowns happen during the videos, and the worst of all things are for some reason on the PlayStation 4 Prowhere the frame rate counter often drops to 20 frames. The same goes for indoor scenes: all four versions equally lag the moments, and in places FPS falls only on the “firmware”.
In general, at the moment the frame rate is very unstable, and what it is connected with is not yet clear. The developers are silent.
