Valve Now Shows Developers Real Steam Deck Framerate Spreads From Players
Valve has added a framerate distribution chart to its developer dashboard for Steam Deck Verified games, built from players who opted in to sharing performance data, GamingOnLinux reported on October 5. Developers previously saw an average framerate plus user feedback. Valve says players' own FPS caps can drag the numbers down, and the goal is spotting games that often drop below targets like 30fps. For now the data covers Verified games only.
