Although GTA 5 runs on 60 FPS for next-gen consoles, some fans are divided on whether or not it's too low.
In video game terminology, FPS stands for "frames per second." This refers to a number of images that pop up in consecutive order. Games with low FPS are very choppy, while games with higher FPS run smoothly and without issues. The latter is an essential aspect of modern games with online modes.
GTA 5 on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S can now run up to 60 FPS. Some players have praised the game for its better performance. Meanwhile, others are greatly disappointed and expect more from Rockstar Games.
The GTA 5 community is divided over next-gen consoles only running up to 60 FPS
Needless to say, GTA 5 players have taken the time to voice their opinions all over social media. The game has finally arrived on next-gen consoles, so players will naturally expect some new features. GTA 5 can run at 60 FPS, yet the question remains whether or not it's good enough.
Some players believe it greatly improves the game
As noted by GTA 5 YouTuber GhillieMaster, 60 FPS makes a world of difference. Most of the game relies on shooting and driving sequences. These action scenes can be very fast-paced at times. Now that it runs at a higher FPS, players will avoid jerky movements.
Some players will enjoy replaying the story mode, simply because of the 60 FPS. It's much better than the previous versions of the game. They would sometimes run at 30 FPS, which is incredibly low by today's standards.
Others believe that 60 FPS is way too low
However, not all players are happy with 60 FPS. Some believe that it's unbelievably low for next-gen consoles.
Popular streamer DarkViperAU noted that PlayStation 5 hardware can run at double that frame rate. For example, shooting games with 120 FPS include Call of Duty and Doom Eternal. It's yet another reminder that GTA 5 is a 2013 game.
DarkViperAU believes that Rockstar should've changed the distance scaling to allow 120 FPS. That alone would've made a huge difference for this game, especially the online portion.
Of course, some players think that Rockstar shouldn't be charging any money just for an FPS upgrade. It's not entirely fair to say, given that next-gen consoles do have newer features. However, some players may understandably not be content with the current frame rate.
Overall, it's largely the same game, but with minor improvements
The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions do have noticeable improvements, such as ray-tracing and more detailed textures. Players can also run the game for 60 FPS, depending on the graphics mode.
With that said, not all players will be impressed with the graphics and gameplay. There aren't too many differences between console generations. 60 FPS might not even be enough for some players. Most PlayStation 5 games can run at 120 FPS, which is far beyond GTA 5.
