@54noah I must have forgotten about that.
Didn't bombs lag in OOT too? Maybe that was only when you blew up lots of things that spewed out items.
I can sorta live with stuff like bombs, but when it's caused by foliage, which is almost everywhere, it gets a lot more annoying.
I did try to chop down some foliage in areas where the frame rate dropped and it did fix the frame rate in that particular spot.
It's kind easy to test because when you press the home button and then resume, the foliage re-spawns. At least on Wii U.
@ThePoochyKid It happens so frequently out in the wild so I don't think that's it, at least not the only cause, it might be what's making villages laggy, but villages also have lots of light sources.
It's probably the amount of foliage that's just too much in some places. It doesn't really happen with only Grass.
@Asaki BotW looks amazing, but it's never worth trading for smooth gameplay.
Nintendo has always been gameplay and art style over powerful graphics.
I own both Wind Waker HD and Hyrule Warriors and they are silk smooth.
Xenoblade Chronicles X had some minor framerate drops, but they were so gradual and never bothered me. And they have a massive open world with Mecha and huge creatures.
@liveswired Why are there so many blind fanboys here that can't tolerate criticism?
Do I need to post proof that I own a Wii U and BotW?
Is it so unfathomable that I think this is an issue, that it's more likely that I'm a troll?
I'm telling you I love the game, but the framerates are an issue for me. You guys need to chill. Does it really bother you so much that I think it's 7/10?
I'm the kind of person who easily gets motion sickness and bad framerates is something I can easily spot, I wish I could be blissfully ignorant and enjoy the game, but I can't.
Let me give some info only someone playing would know.
Near the Faron tower, on the plateu where two Lizals are dancing, the perfect spot to gather Hearty Durians, the framerate drops quite badly, but only when you look towards the center of the plateu.
There are several spots like that all over. I'll play the latest patch and go to that spot and see if it still drops.
I absolutely love the game and hate it.. (Playing on Wii U) I love it because it's so good, but I hate it because the framerate drops makes for an awful experience, it keeps distracting me because it's so noticable, but I can't keep myself playing despite it.. Nintendo needs to stop caring so much about graphics, reduce the graphics quality and bring the framerate up. The performance issues makes this 10/10 game a 7/10.
