Full Version: [Bug] Socom 3 huge frame rate dropp when looking at the sun [SCUS-97474]
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
With default speed settings in the first mission when you look at the sun the frame rate droops to single digits but the system still shows 60fps 100%
(Software mode doesn't help the framerate)
Funny thing is that i don't get this frame rate drop on pal version.

This is the message i get when looking at the sun (in logs)
