Steam Could Soon Tell You How Much FPS You’ll Get Based on Similar User PCs
According to information found through data mining, Steam may soon launch an interesting new feature that would let users see expected game performance before making a purchase.
This could make it much easier for players to decide whether a game is worth buying for their current setup.
Steam May Soon Show Expected Game Performance Before Purchase
The information comes from SteamDB (via LambdaGen), a trusted site that tracks changes in Steam’s official backend. However, there is still no confirmation that this feature will actually be released.
The system is expected to show the average frame rate a user should be able to get for a specific game based on their current PC hardware. This would be a useful tool when deciding what to buy, as it could help players understand how well a game might run on their system before spending money.
At the moment, the exact way this feature would work is not clear. As frame rate can vary depending on many factors, Steam may use data from users with similar hardware to provide an estimate.
It is also possible that this feature will show FPS estimates for different resolutions and graphics settings, since these factors directly affect performance.
In any case, this would be very useful for players, as it would help them understand how well certain games may run on their current setup.
In other news, Steam recently broke its record for concurrent players once again just a couple of weeks ago, showing that the platform continues to grow.
