GRID Legends iOS Performance Review - Another AAA Mobile Miracle!

[@MrMacRight]

See performance on more devices here: kzbin.info/aero/PLoho91JNnNU3p3mXg-oSvo9gxkVTs6Aga&si=9oVW4bk523RKpznC

[@ncard00]

No 120 fps option, yeah, I’m outta here, all mobile games should have 120 fps support, for futureproofing, even if current devices can’t hit it, or you have to play at low settings and low resolution, I prefer smoothness over graphics, as do many other people.

[@Everyday-man]

Feral Interative are one of the few Developers that still care about its customers

[@sunsetgaming2498]

Not making the iOS and Mac versions compatible is a huge bummer. Other developers have successfully done so

[@Everyday-man]

@@sunsetgaming2498 I agree there, but I am referring to actually bringing real games over to IOS and Mac, HandyGames and Playdigious ( NorthGard, Dead Cells, Little Nightmares ) and Even CapCom. It’s great to see some love to IOS instead of just trash pay to win “ Free to Play Games”

[@christians.989]

Such nonsense. 😂

[@henrik5299]

​@@sunsetgaming2498Other developers also fucked up controls so ... Grid legends is wonderfully adapted to mobile devices .

[@ykwoozie606]

Another Feral Interative masterpiece !!!

[@macprotips]

great video! I appreciate how thorough and detailed it is. 60fps on iPad looks incredible.

[@mingistech]

I play the hell out of Grid Legends on my MacBook Pro with a G29 Racing Wheel. Will be picking this up for sure.

[@zptaco]

Thank you for your reporting, this is one of the main channels I rely on to know about these games

[@mobthegamer5391]

Pre-ordered it on my iPhone after buying it on my PS5, downloaded it the second it came out and it runs like a dream

[@75and1]

This is a masterpiece and a new standard for iOS gaming

[@jihadrouani5525]

It good to see more AAA games coming to mobile, hopefully Grid becomes available on Android too where RAM won't be an issue since high end Android phones to have 12/16GB

[@arkhalis3682]

It'll launch on Android too tho it's already confirmed. I take it you weren't aware?

[@jihadrouani5525]

@@arkhalis3682 Yeah that's new to me, thanks!

It's on Android, playing for 2 days straight on my Galaxy S24 Ultra. Amazing AAA title that is must play on high end devices...

[@kevinmckenna5682]

Great review. You are the best.

[@draaa_k]

fyi: you can change the graphics as you like by changing the preferences like grid autosport

[@MrMacRight]

Not on iOS

[@siyakhanzimande4817]

Looks amazing on M4 iPad Pro

[@burneraccount617]

nice, havent try on iPhone 12 Pro. will buy this weekend

[@rubenjorge13]

If there's one thing I hate about Feral's ports, is that they don't give us a PC-like graphics options, which is really a shame. We can't push the graphics and performance of the game with just 3 graphics options... I truly don't understand why they do this giving the amount of different devices that there are available on iOS and Android, so at least for me a PC-like graphics option is the obvious choice on mobile games...

[@KicksonAcapulco13-no5rd]

These are mobile devices; games are optimized for numerous factors and simply cannot offer such options. Feral puts a lot of attention and effort into optimization for mobile devices, but here the optimization needs to be done differently, taking into various things like passive cooling and throttling. Believe me, Feral has considered the graphical factors, and it’s no coincidence that they don’t provide as many graphical options - there’s simply no need for them. Due to the nature of mobile devices, you have to squeeze as much as you can out of the graphics, but not too much, not to overheat mobile devices.

[@Hu3BRPlace]

On android you can edit the "preferences" config file located on android/data, i did it to uncap the 30FPS limit on "graphics" preset

[@rubenjorge13]

@@Hu3BRPlace oooh, i'm curious now, how was the performance with graphics Mode fps uncapped?

[@Hu3BRPlace]

@rubenjorge13 depends on the scenario, on my base S23 it runs at 35~45FPS, 8 elite should run it at locked 60

[@KicksonAcapulco13-no5rd]

@@rubenjorge13 Bear in mind it will increase the smartphone’s temperature (it comes at the cost of something, in the long run, throttling may occur, for example). Chasing FPS is not a priority on mobile devices; it’s a trade-off between power, capability, and the device’s temperature. Looking for visuals and FPS, it’s probably better to play on a powerful PC.

[@juliocesar4874]

Do you think its running with better graphics in the galaxy s23 or iPhone 14 ??

[@KicksonAcapulco13-no5rd]

iPhone - Grid on Android cannot sustain more than 40FPS.

[@zeadaltaee]

​@@KicksonAcapulco13-no5rdplaying on my s23 ultra on performance mode and constant 60 fps

[@KicksonAcapulco13-no5rd]

@@zeadaltaee True - on performance yes. Android users unfortunately made such a fuss that the game was temporarily removed from the store (I’m not sure if it’s back yet). Probably for further optimization. All because, that on many benchmarks, Android phones were running at 40FPS, while those evil, dumb, terrible, lame, lousy iPhones were running the game at 60FPS.😅🙄

[@Hu3BRPlace]

​@@zeadaltaeei'm playing at 35~~45fps with "graphics" preset on my base S23, all u have to do is edit the "preferences" file of the game, located at android/data/feral folder

[@ykwoozie606]

0:55 I don't think Alien Isolation supports Metal 3 or it wouldn't have support for older models like iPhone 6s otherwise

[@kevinmckenna5682]

It actually looks like FSR 1 to me. Lots of shimmer that I don't see on my ROG Ally when playing this game.

[@MrMacRight]

Feral updated it recently to support Metal 3 so it can support new devices better.

[@CasuallyLit]

Glad I saw this vid before buying it on my 15 Pro. No way I am going to play a racing game on 40 fps max.

[@MrMacRight]

It's fine

[@Tung-ChenTsai]

Too sad this game does not share the purchase with the macOS version. I have to purchase twice.😢

[@sunsetgaming2498]

A deal-breaker. I was hoping they would support cross play

[@christians.989]

I am disappointed. Hate it to play racing games with lower than 60 fps on actual devices!

[@MrMacRight]

I mean it hits 60 FPS for the most part on devices that support it. It's a very demanding game

[@luigiardingo]

Great video and looks stellar. Gutted it won’t be available on iPhone 13, with 6GB the minimum

[@harshagurrapu3949]

On my iphone 13 base model, it is available to download

[@thesensiblestreamer2958]

Controls are everything in this game.

[@brandon_nope]

I’m curious about the performance with low power mode enabled

[@jimmyzbike]

Been really enjoying this game on my new m4 macmini. I had no idea this was available for iPhone. Is cross saving supported? Oh. Yeah, like 3 minutes later, nope.

[@HeuerCalibre.12]

One thing I didn’t hear is if it is gamepad compatible?

[@MrMacRight]

Yes it is

[@loredo182]

I understand the thing about universal purchase? But it would make much sense to have saves syncing across devices, would work much better personally.

[@rooley3718]

I seriously find this so interesting it's crazy I have a 15 Pro Max only issue I am having with games and tbf anything remotely more challenging to run is the temperature it gets ridiculously hot and I know it will just degrade my battery like crazy I am already at 90% battery health with 310 cycles. I wish there was a way to just actively cool the phone but these cooling pads need to be plugged in at all times. I get super paranoid about the heat of my phone I may just be crazy.

[@arkhalis3682]

The problem is the iPhone 15 series uses cheaper batteries across the board that are rated for 800 cycles only.

[@rooley3718]

@ Just looked it up it’s rated for 1000 cycles still I’m pretty confident in the fact that the hot area is the chip (obviously) cause you can feel where the heat is but it gets a lot warmer than other iPhone models so battery degradation is a lot faster for these phones kinda sucks

[@Ninja-Myth]

Doesn't work with a PS4 joypad even using their add-in, no rumble. By the way, what would be the equivalent power needed in a PC to run this game (I'm getting rid of my Mini M4)?

[@Jwatchdizzledrip3003]

Dec 16, 2024 Thanks for the video Stewie. Can’t wait for this game to release here in the states…

Will it work properly on Base iPhone 16/16 Plus?

[@Monarch3230]

I just downloaded and gave it a shot.. Graphics are insanely good but the gameplay is so assisted even with all the assists off it doesn’t feel good to me idk if this is an issue or if its just how the gameplay is. Grid auto-sport feels realistic compared to this.

[@thatguyasphalt2297]

Can you do for the iPhone SE 2022

[@MrMacRight]

It's not supported on that device

[@jukresspeed]

is iphone 13 base model can't play this game?

[@MrMacRight]

No you can't

[@fr3ddyfr3sh]

It's so strange, Apple could release a gaming console with minimal effort. Take Mac Mini with the the biggest SOC, put Apple TV on it, done. They already have a footstep in gaming with Arcade. I really don't see, why they don't do it.

[@crestofhonor2349]

Apple could not. They are not associated with gaming and they'd be facing a massive uphill battle against Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony, and Valve. It's not just about hardware. Apple ultimately isn't that interested in gaming but just want to help those who do want to game on their platform. You're also forgetting about pricing which is important too. You can't take the biggest SoC and shove it in there as there's cost associated and consoles are designed to sell for cheap

[@goldy_on_pc930]

The s24 could play grid legends back in 2005

[@drakker2116]

40 FPS preset looks terrible

[@MrMacRight]

It's fine

[@Iris_Pedro]

Игра еще не оптимизирована?

[@OlaJohnReborn]

Why even release this on iOS if it can’t even hold a locked 60fps on the newer models? Grid Autosport looks much better than this slideshow, and it even runs on much older iPhones.

Look, I love Feral. Thank you Feral Interactive from the bottom of my heart for the iOS release. But not willing to spend a month on making sure saves are cross compatible AND covering it up with „buwuu touch controls are incompatible or something“ is total BS. Real reason - to make more money - is totally fair, why’d you pick such a pathetic lie?!
