Not that I'm complaining about that. I can entirely understand
the
tradeoff of settling for 30Hz for the sake of a higher quality
image.
It's just not my preferred tradeoff - I'd normally prefer
framerate.
(Of course getting a *consistent* framerate can be difficult,
but
getting a higher one is fairly straightforward: Decrease the
polygon/texture budget.)
I love rage for that. If the engine don't have everything it
needs, it render something with a lower quality in order to keep
the framerate high. The game is really enjoyable and have very
few lags.
