Ok.. so here is a potential framerate fix that I found. 1.) Right click your game -> Properties -> Launch Options -> Put in "-windowed" (Without the " ") 2.) Launch the game, and then in the Graphics Options change it to "Windowed Borderless" 3.) Start the story mode. And go to an area with a bunch of goons that will easily kill you and stand there 4.) Alt+tab out to a different window. Doesn't matter what, just so long as Batman isn't in focus. (I'm chatting on IRC) 5.) Now in the background you should hear Batman get killed, the random badguy spout nonsense, no sound when the loading screen is up, and then you'll hear sound again as Batman is idling away. 6.) Once that's happened, tab back in and enjoy your stutter free gaming and improved framerate. Someone please confirm so I can  if it works.You're essentially forcing the game to load again when it's out of focus, and it seems to fix everything.

I had read some really negative post on RPS about the stuttering, so thought I would hold off until my new g-sync monitor arrives. I cracked and played it for the first time last night anyway and had so much fun. Using a 980 ti/SSD so everything maxed at 3440 x 1440 and it's looking ridiculous and running smooth. Except for the in-game cutscenes - they are stuck in 16:9 and look like squished, zoomed-in rear end. The first time I beat up a group and then called the batmobile it burst through a wall behind me like the loving koolaid man. Amazing. This is the first time I've seen a game that really, really made proper use of all that Physx type stuff. Only took 10 years! vv Heyo!

Brightman posted:It's been said a bunch but I had been wanting to mention it but yeah, I have no idea how you managed it without turning off their optics. It took me 2 tries and only because I hosed up using corner cover on the second one. Fuuuuuck. Corner cover. I never thought of that. I feel so dumb now. This game does have a problem with you having so many options you can't keep track well. I have a hard time remembering which number each gadget is. And you have like three different gadgets that gently caress with technology in different ways. It can be difficult to remember which gadget gently caress up drones vs guns vs people and so on.

Aquasnake posted:Fuuuuuck. Corner cover. I never thought of that. I feel so dumb now. I think this is a side effect of starting you off as fully geared up Batman. The game almost feels like an expansion pack because you start out fully loaded and expected to remember how to play. It's been a while since I've played an Arkham game so it felt like a bit of an uphill battle to learn Batman again. EDIT: Am I the only one who got a chuckle from Batman stealing one of his old upgrades from the GCPD Evidence Room? Levantine fucked around with this message at 17:34 on Jun 25, 2015 |

Relase-now-Patch-later has been an industry standard practise for over a decade, but the last game I can remember being withdrawn like this was the completely unplayable Sierra Sports NFL Football Pro '99. I promise you it wasn't pulled due to performance issues as much as it was pulled due to Steam's refund policy.

CharlestonJew posted:the final riddler race is a piece of poo poo, especially on that last lap, you pretty much need to get lucky with the rotations to beat it. Really? I never had any problems and I did it a couple of times. They rotations are actually pretty predictable and you have tons of spare time for it. You can crash like five times and still make it through. The Riddler is not very good at controlling his timing.

The lack of AO and some textures is kinda bugging me. Close to getting a GMG refund and just getting it on PS4... I'd feel like a dumbass if they put out a patch and free poo poo in a few days though.

Has anyone on PC gotten the Riddler trophy in the ball outside the orphanage? It seems like the physics are broken and when it rolls to the bottom it just gets stuck in the back and you can't collect it.

Unless I'm being fed wrong info, the refund process Valve uses is incredible. Basically devs get all their Steam sales placed in a coffer, the contents of which are sent every month, while valve gets immediate access to 30% of every sale. But when a refund is approved, Valve keeps their 30% and the full price of the refund comes out of the developers/publishers total earnings for that month. So getting a successful refund on a game owns devs harder than just pirating the game. WB must be feeling an incredible amount of heat right now.

I mean it's good for putting pressure on companies but that is pretty weird and exploitative when taken objectively, especially when you consider that AAA companies aren't the only ones using steam. Obviously mass refunds aren't going to be a thing that commonly but it's still kinda weird. (And seems pretty open to exploitation?)

This info is from purported indie devs that claim to be breaking contractual agreements by revealing Valves business model. But it's totally believable. I'm sure Origin has a similar policy. Well maybe not because I have no idea if non-EA games are even on that store.

It's definitely something that needs to change. It's a model that was made for huge corporations to worry about (like when GameStop buys codes from Sony, sells you a code, and the code doesn't work so you get it taken care of, Sony doesn't lose what they gained) to discourage returns happening at all without taking into account how it effects developers across the spectrum.

Has anyone else had a problem with the Gunrunner (Penguin) side missions? I started the first non-story one, chased the van down to Sionis on the first island, but when I got there everyone was already unconscious. I could open the roof smash through it to get down to where all the mooks are, but cannot do anything else in the room i.e. blow the vault, the door shows up on detective vision but it's non-interactable. Seems like it's going to completely screw me out of the completion.

Honestly I don't see an issue with that policy. Sure, the percentages could use a change, but overall I'm for it. It forces devs and publishers to actually put some effort into making a quality product to avoid losing profit later on if they happen to deliver something as bad as this. If companies start moving away from Steam then it just becomes clear who's not willing to shell out a bit more time/money and makes them seem like they'd rather deliver low quality ports to appease the PC community.

Like playing the game for quite a long time, or the game being Early Access (since Steam warns you repeatedly that Early Access means you take your chances). Honestly, I think this is the perfect way to keep publishers who pull this kind of poo poo honest, since it hurts them in the one place they truly care about, and is unlikely to affect indie devs all that much.

That would be true in an accurate world where people don't have extreme emotional reactions to things, especially where they know they can cause financial harm to someone. If this is accurate part of the super-heavy NDA for it is probably because it will only take a small amount of effort for a #GG-like group to exploit it to gently caress over an indie developer they don't like if the full information is known.

How come all of gotham's bad guys chipped in to pay the Arkham Knight to help Scarecrow destroy the city? You'd think Penguin and Two-face would be kind of opposed to be dosed in fear juice. I can understand them paying for him to kill batman but why is everyone helping a two bit plan from Scarecrow? The only reason he accomplished anything was because he had help from everyone.
