The framerate stutters 80-90% of the time! Go back and play it and see for yourself. That is of course if you can actually see more than 10 frames per second. I'm convinced that you cannot.
A bad framerate affects how well the controls respond, and everything in gameplay revolves around controls. If the framerate is not steady and smooth then it has a serious impact on gameplay, because it affects the controls! If you're not especially good at games and basically shoot blindly in the case of JFG, then yeah I can see where it wouldn't be as big of a problem. But if you're like me and like pinpoint accuracy with your shots (nothing beats shooting off the heads of ants and tribals!), a bad framerate can ruin everything. Therein lies the difference, ABF. I care about speed and control more than you do.
