I sadly cannot answer the question, at least not until FU is out on PC in UK (next Fri), but I would like to know (and perhaps may help answer your question), has the 30fps lock have anything to do with v-sync on in the game at all?
According to reports, at least the unpatched version has no (known) way to unlock FPS.
I don't know if the patch does anything or if there is any way to hack it (I don't have the game).
I know people complained about this enough for the Battlefront games such that an FPS unlock option was finally released. So people should complain to Aspry and Lucasarts about it, for sure!
Maybe a lot of PC's can't handle over 30fps now, but some surely can and someday all of them will.
I wish, have been searching for a while haven't found anything, patch didn't help with that, I'm sure my PC can do a lot better than 30fps and I really don't like being stuck with it.
