Titanfall [frame capped to 60fps]

Anyone else w gsync playing this Beta? The game's fps is supposedly locked to your displays refresh rate, and it seems when you have gsync enabled the game selects 60hz as the "default" if you could call it that. So basically when I play Titanfall with Gsync enabled I'm stuck at 60fps. Bummer.

Also.... Are developers seriously gonna keep doing this to PC gamers?

This is a beta -- and betas invite feedback -- why don't you report the bug to the developers?

Ideally, it should attempt to sync to the maximum refresh rate that G-SYNC is set at (e.g. 144fps), and let G-SYNC handle smoothing-out any frame rate slowdowns.

(ManuelG at NVIDIA, you might want to give them a call, too.)

Point taken, reporting it now. I can't be the only one getting tired of all these games with locked framerates and what have you though.

Excellent initiative! I'll help with populating it.

Hope they resolve this issue with TitanFall, as it looks like a pretty fast paced FPS.

Titanfall uses a 60 fps limit with vsync off but lets the framerate go higher with vsync on. This unfortunately leads to horrendous microstuttering, at least in my case. For some reason the frame limiting behavior seems to be opposite on certain hardware or with certain settings such as insane textures.
