Why not a FPS limit?

Hyler3

Why can't there be an option to turn on a FPS limiter like in World of Warcraft and Halo: Combat Evolved? It's been bugging me ever since I downloaded Crossfire.

There is one at 200 FPS.

I dont see why it would make a difference, the gameplay does not change after 60/70 FPS.

Yes it does. And not only does it to a huge degree, but it's very easy to prove and affects my specific playstyle quite drastically :O

More on topic, an FPS limiter wouldn't be a bad thing. You're going to have a better time playing at a constant 60 FPS, rather than one spiking from 80 - 120.

A good implementation would be something like the current resolution selection, i.e. a drop-down menu in options that gives you a couple options (e.g. 60, 80, 100).

That's because you aren't human, you're more like a Leporidae-Homosapien. (When it comes to games)

Hey, last time I checked humans can climb ladders, and rabbits can't :O

I think he means he wants an FPS limiter that you can set yourself in the options. The issue is the amount of CPU usage goes up, and if your computer is overclocked, it's very vulnerable to overheating, so limiting FPS can reduce the chances.

Limiting FPS to lets say 60 reduces tearing and sudden FPS drops. I think you could limit FPS with Bandicam while not recording.
