I recently had a "LAN" party with 3 other friends, two of them used their Xbox Ones and myself and another used the PCs. We all played horde mode for Gears of War 4 (Thank you Microsoft for cross-play). I couldn't help but notice the xbox counterparts was simply unplayable. It is clearly not a FPS issue because digital foundary has identified GOW4 to run at a steady 30FPS. As a PC gamer, I always run my shooters at about 80-100 FPS however my other monitor which is 60hz, was more than playable after overclocking to 72hz. I know going from 100, 80 or even 72fps back to 30fps is a huge jump backwards however games like Uncharted 4 and HZD run like butter so it must be the input lag. For all those who have PCs and XONEs, is it just me or are Microsoft exclusives extremely unoptimized?
It is not the TV either because I have set them to game mode and we've tried using a monitor as well. Still the same problem. The XONE is unplayable for how choppy it is. Also we used the TVs without game mode for Uncharted 4 and HZD. Both ran like butter.
