Game runs fine on PC with everything maxed. Except when I burn out it studders for a second, then it's fine even with tons of smoke in the air. No AO on PC kinda sucks.

So mods on the WBGames support forum have started quietly deleting posts that criticize the quality of the PC version. Probably a difficult job to do without people noticing, since that's every post.

Broseph Brostar posted:Ironically, all of these profits they are losing will only lead to less support for releasing AAA games Well, on the bright side, they do not have a lot of sunk costs into hiring 12 people for 6 weeks to develop the port. So if you believe this, you should probably know the truth. http://www.vgstations.com/en/news/item/4012-batman-arkham-knight-pc-port-outsourced-to-external-developer.html And then you also have NVIDIA using PS4 Test Bed Dev Kits as marketing tools in that video above. Anyway, how much would it cost to hire 12 people for the 6 weeks they were contracted? About 20k? Utnayan fucked around with this message at 18:45 on Jun 24, 2015 |

I'd love to know the story here. Like the game was delayed for a long-rear end time. What possible reason do you have for waiting until ^6 weeks before launch^ to start a port.

I say we revisit this thread in 30 years when we are watching a documentary on NVIDIA's false advertising and Warner Brothers assigning a 12 man team 6 weeks to contract out a port, and we can watch GTX 970 cards and boxes of the PC version of Batman Arkham Knight (We may have to use special effects here since I bet a majority were digital and didn't come with boxes) being dug out of a landfill saying, "This is where fraud in the games industry started to finally get it's rear end kicked".

I think this might be slammed right now since it just came out. I tried the one race a few times and every time I restarted it would struggle and vary between no leader boards, leader boards, or only showing me and no one else.

So whenever this patch does come out, who volunteers to be the first brave soul to test it out to see if it actually makes it better instead of even worse? Any takers?

Got several hours in, enjoying it so far though I am running the PC version (oddly enough mine came with the motion blur stuff pre-disabled in the ini, some sort of stealth patch?). Been a lot of fun overall, only major play issue I've had has been those drat races, though I seem to have the somewhat amusing problem of triggering the walls at the wrong time and blowing up my car repeatedly so my continued failure is funny to watch at least. At this rate just going to have to YouTube the 100% ending though. The police station is definitely a "visit a lot and see what changes" area dialogue-wise if nothing else, I love that abusing Mr. Broken Hand is not just a one time deal (I about lost it when my joking attempt to punch him the first time actually had Batman slam his head into the bars, but then I really laughed when I came back and Batman lifted his fist, and the guy freaked and fell down trying to run away). I absolutely love the improvements to hand to hand combat they made, taking what's acknowledged as one of the best melee combat systems out there and making it this much better is an impressive feat, really. Batman feels much more powerful but the NPCs keep up just enough to be interesting without going to broken, at least in my current experience anyway.

Contracting an actual company would be way, way more. Exactly. If it were for just that amount of time you are probably looking at somewhere around 100-150k, which is absolutely nothing for the development for a title like this. The real question here is how pissed is someone like Nvidia right now? Since they put a lot of money and marketing towards this game and have to be feeling extremely burned by it all. I mean they obviously had to have had some build of this game where it was running perfectly for those videos. It makes you wonder if WB didn't pull a bait and switch somewhere.

I haven't had any problems with the game since I reset the ini and left the frame limit alone. It does suck that they limited it to 30 FPS but it runs fine and looks great so I'm happy with it.

NVIDIA doesn't give two shits. They sold their 900 series cards and gave away copies of the game which I am sure Warner Brothers had a stake in as well so that agreement offsets by default. NVIDIA is also still in the shits reputation wise for lying about the available memory specs on their GTX 970's. I am sure WB and NVIDIA would love to show amped up PS4 test bed coverage with all the settings jacked on higher end hardware because it sells more for both. I would think the blame is lovely all around on this one. At least the game works on consoles. Utnayan fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Jun 24, 2015 |
