Little Worried! Some Info Would be Appriciated!

My setup is pretty standard. I've got my TV on a TV cabinet with my Sky box on the top shelf, my Xbox One on the middle shelf and the power brick on the bottom shelf at the back. The console has plenty of space to breathe, none of the fans or vents are blocked
up and for the most part it's pretty quiet. This all started around a month or so ago, I often flip between Digital and Disc based games and the noise is most noticable then, it doesn't last long as once the game's up and running it usually settles back down.

Sorry to hear it. Can you describe your set up? Does the console have lots of room for the vents to breathe? Have you made sure that there is no build up of dust?

It is not normal that the console should make a lot of noise. Does this happen only when putting a disc in/starting it up? If so, then perhaps it's just the disc reader spinning up.

However, if you believe that this is an issue that could worsen you can set up a repair/replacement on the warranty page.

Good luck.

Thanks for the info. Much appriciated.

I assume that you have seen Caspian Border, If you compare the textures and graphic's to Operation Metro, CB looks less detailed then OM. Dice are a experienced developer and will most likely have tried and tested skills where they can find a balance between
graphic/texture detail and FPS. I agree with you tho, I would happily give up detail for smother gameplay.

The biggest problem is that all worries that people are having is because of a bad beta and alot of server issues that can also effect the drop of FPS. I have not seen the FPS on my Xbox drop lower enougth to make the game unplayable.

I think some of the problem's we have seen in the beta, is a case of Frostbite 2 being new and still in final stages of development as-well as the game itself.

The issue with the FPS is not coursed by textures, it's the way the engine renders the textures that makes the FPS drop however as-long as the FPS doesn't drop under 25FPS for more then a second then the average player should't notice, Its only when its drops
for longer is when we start to notice and the game starts to feels like it's in slow motion.

Also try to remember that not all capture cards used by gamers on YouTube capture the image at 30FPS. If the capture card is recording at a lower frame rate and the game in questions frame rate drops for a moment, it might not be noticeable in the game as its
not low enough but is noticeable on the recording. Most capture cards that record at 60hz, capture images at 25FPS.
