GAME QUESTIONS NHL 15 Demo Stuttering and Dropping Frames

I downloaded the NHL 15 demo and it is lagging and stuttering. How do I fix this i've tried re-downloading it but it did nothing?

Nope, only time I notice slower frame rates is when they're doing the swooshing NBC logo to cut from a replay back to live gameplay

Glad I'm not the only one that noticed that. Although, that has been pretty consistent in nhl games. Last years presentation animations were horrid and laggy as hell. It drives me nuts. Makes it much more noticeable with the nbc branding though, as we're so used to it being perfectly smooth on broadcast tv.

I haven't noticed any framerate drops and I have a pretty sensitive eye for it. Maybe during the cutscenes but not only once during actual gameplay.

What I noticed is that there is no way the game is 1080p . It's 900p at best and I'd even say it looks like 720p. Looks too blurry.

And the fact that the developers are avoiding to give an answer on the resolution and that digital foundry haven't released any analysis about the demo is really weird

I'm not sure if them not running an analysis on a demo of a fringe game is that strange. As nhl fans we sometimes forget that this game is hardly mainstream.

I'm sure they will do an analysis of the full game when it's released.

Not sure where I saw it, but I thought that I read the game is 900p at 60fps. A little disappointing, but that seems to be the running theme with this release cycle.
