Why Am I Getting 30 FPS in Stadium Mode?

-

I’ve been noticing that when I play in Stadium mode on my PS4 Pro, my frame rate is consistently capped at 30 FPS. Is anyone else experiencing this? It feels really frustrating to have such low performance, and I can’t figure out why it’s happening.

I totally feel you! I’m experiencing the same inconsistencies on PC. One moment it’s fine, and the next, it feels like I’m playing in slow motion!

So, it seems like the 30 FPS cap is intentional. The devs mentioned that older hardware has struggled in this mode, and locking it at 30 FPS helps avoid erratic frame rate drops. They’re working on some tech to address this and hope to roll out improvements soon, so hang tight!

That’s wild! But if it’s intentional, then why does my buddy get 60 FPS on his PS4 Slim? Seems kind of inconsistent to me!

I’m on Xbox Series X, and it’s a different issue for me. I’m getting lower resolution and frame rates too. I’ve never had a game do that before, which is so weird. It’s like the game is just making decisions on its own!

That sounds frustrating! I’m having a similar experience—Stadium mode feels almost unplayable when it drops like that.
