Do you think DDD HD will fix the framerate issues that the original had?

[Wilford111]

Honestly, my biggest issue with Dream Drop Distance on the 3DS was the insufferable amount of framerate drops the game had throughout. I don't know if anyone else feels the same way I do, or if I'm just picky, but what I'm really hoping is that they get rid of them for the HD rerelease.

Does the development studio acknowledge that the game has framerate issues, and are they going to fix them?

 

[Face My Fears]

I have no idea what you're talking about. The game never looked horrible to me while I was playing. I'm sure that whatever you're talking about will get cleaned up for a HD PS4 release. Unlike those older games, the data for KH3D is still around so it will be easier for them to go in and fix the issues.

Framerate drops can probably be attributed to the 3DS system, especially when the 3D is on. It doesn't really get bad unless there is a lot of chaos and action at once. Really, compared to the Pokemon games, DDD's framerate issues aren't so bad. With Pokemon, framerate drops drastically the moment you turn the 3D on, and it's not even very good 3D.

 

[Face My Fears]

What do you all mean by frame rate? I never see any change in the gameplay ever (although maybe it's because I never played the game with 3D on).

Hmm, I too had a few framerate issues with the game. I think they occur when you have been playing the game for a long time, and also in some of the larger areas with many enemies. It did not bother me that much in the end.
I am confident that those issues will be resolved with the HD upgrade, all thou 2.5 had some issues too. Maybe with PS4 data install(I read somewhere that all PS4 games have to be installed) this problem will be solved.

Wow ok that sounds like a faulty game or 3DS. The game can have frame rate issues in some areas that have a lot of Dream Eaters but an insufferable amount sounds weird. If its a constant issue try figuring what's happening in the game and I'll help you find out if its the game or not.

As for durability I played DDD on an 6 hour flight and had no frame rate issue.

 

[Chuman]

almost definitely. if the 3DS can run the game almost completely smooth, the PS4 should pull it off immaculately.

Speaking of things to fix, I really hope they fix that annoying Link Portal glitch/bug where Riku suddenly has Sora's portals and vice versa.

^This!

That bug transformed the hunt for The End of Pain a really annoying. I spent literally weeks to get some sense to the order of the portals, and after many tires I finally got it. Only for Riku thou since it was such a drag that I did not even dare to try the same thing again with Sora.

this game had a lot of bugs, didn't it? how come i never experienced any?

 

[SentimentOfTruth]

I think it'd be stranger if the framerate issues weren't fixed. Said framerate issues are most likely due to the system itself, rather than the game; I imagine they might be improved on the New 3DS systems, but I can't say for sure. The frame drops are definitely there, but mainly when there's a lot going on on-screen, such as Xehanort's ice attack that surrounds you. Similar stuff happens in Birth by Sleep with stuff like Mega-Flare.

Although, to take examples from 1.5 and II.5, at 1080p the numbered titles actually develop more framerate issues than the originals, rather than fix them; never understood why that happens, but that's not the point here.

There was a certain, sure-fire way to "undo" that bug in order to still being able to get that Keyblade I remember, although it did result in quite some bothersome extra work.
That's why I hope they will fix it for the HD Remaster.

The Portal-bug was actually the only one I had in my own playthroughs, lol.
Perhaps you were just lucky?

 

[maryadavies]

I didn't run into a lot of bugs, but then I didn't look for End of Pain or anything. Well that I noticed..

I hope they fix them though. Framerate might be fixed on PS4, I hope the other bugs get fixed too.

results of ps3 framework and disc data no loading like it should. if they were downloads there would probably be mostly gone.

Ah, I see. Makes sense; from what I've read the PS3 is unnecessarily complex for game development compared to other systems? A download probably would fix that.

I first played 3D on a 2DS until I upgraded to a New 3DS. I had several small framerate issues, but they don't happen so much with the N3DS. Seems like that processor really helps.

 

[Wilford111]

Maybe I worded it wrong, but this game definitely has framerate issues. If you don't believe me, just go to the twisty tube thing in Prankster's Paradise. The game suddenly runs at a buttery smooth 60 frames per second, and I can't help but think the entire game was supposed to run like this. Everywhere else it runs at 30 or less.

 

[BlackOsprey]

Eh, it's not like I ever had very high standards for framerate to begin with. Til it drops down to something like a laggy online server (which it never did), I'm not too bothered by it. N3DS more or less eliminated any lag that I did notice before, so I'm thinking most of the issues came from running a fairly high-quality game on an inadequate system.

Either you had a faulty system or game, or you're just more sensitive to framerate issues than I.

Yeah the 3Ds might be great but its not that powerful so frame rates should be expected from big games. His word choice made it sound like it was a constant issue and took away from the enjoyment which made me believe there was something wrong with his game/device.

To clarify we're not saying the game doesn't suffer from it but to say that its teeming with it sounds serious.

square can fix DDD's framerate issues, but can they stop liberal nincompoops from taking my guns away????
