    am I really the only one with fps issue???

    I dont see anyone on console complaining about the very low framerate which makes the game feel sluggish and spongy?

    Im playing BF3 too and dont have any problems with a 30 FPS game but FC3 seems to be on max. 20 FPS.

    Takes so much fun and makes the MP feel just bad.

    maybe you have an old xbox? i don't know it that would be the cause,

    I am having this problem too only 20FPS and i am sure we're not the only one.
    Maybe people just don't see it or don't know what the stuttering is.
    But ive read somewhere you could try and set your 360 on 720P.
    I still have to try it myself so i don't know if this solves the problem.

    Yes i tried it already. No changes at all.

    The thing is that as soon as ubgo iut of a closed room like the safehouse the framerate is still smooth for like half a minute then it goes down again.

    In MP its even more worse. It destroys the whole fun of the game . I like the MP but with this framerate its like playing an very old shooter. It just feels sluggosh and spongie. And i know its because of that cause it feels so much more direct when in closed rooms. If u played BF3 and had like a Tank Battle with 3 tank on close quarters with lots of explosions --> that framerate is what FC3 has all the time.

    Also its not really healthy for you when watching this. They should write a warning on the game cause eyes starting to hurt really quickly with that framerate

    Ok that sucks!
    So far i only played the singleplayer.
    I don't think i even gonna try the mp if it's in this state.

    We should just wait and see if Ubi can do something about this issue

    What xbox version do u guys have? Elite, slim or older version?

    It seems to be that the slim versions can run the game better.

    If thats true then ubinshould fix it or scr** themselfes

    I'm playing on 360 despite having a monster PC. It's not silky smooth but it's more than good enough. Go play Earth Defense Force 2017 and then complain about the FPS in any game ever again.
