PC users: A modder has released a fix for the fullscreen-bug. Currently, when playing the game in fullscreen-mode, the game won't actually run at your monitor's native resolution. There's a more in-depth explanation here, but the TL;DR is that, due to a bug, the game will:
When you boot up the game for the first time after this, there'll be some diagnostics text overlaid on top of it; hit CTRL + SHIFT + O to get rid of it and it'll stay gone even after you restart.

Once again, for everyone playing this on PC: A mod was released yesterday which fixes the fullscreen resolution bug currently affecting the game. I've written up a fairly detailed post about it on Reddit, which details what the bug is, how to install the fix, and how to deal with the most common problems that people are having with regards to getting it running. Click here for the deets. I also put together a comparison gallery, to give you an idea of how the game looks before and after applying the mod (no spoilers, only screens from the first 10 minutes of the game): Linky

So here's a big spoilerriffic question: For PS4 players, do you need PS+ to find other players' bodies and receive help from them during the final credits? I've seen someone say that they tried it without being online at all, and there was just no help available for that section.

Pollyanna posted:How do I get up here? Blanket platforming tip: Hold the jump button until you grab onto your pod, and then (while still holding it), hit light attack to do a cool spin kick which gives you some horizontal distance. Then you can hit jump again to do your double jump, hold it until you grab onto the pod again, and do another spin kick. Then, if you need more distance, do a dash in mid-air and you can grab the pod and do a third spin kick.

Vermain posted:You can make that specific jump by climbing up on top of the building to the left of it, jumping onto the rusted-out transformer (?) at the top, and then use a combination of a double jump, a dash, 3-4 Virtuous Contract light attacks and your Pod's slowfall. Spin kicks, yo. They're the absolute best way to get horizontal distance. E: I'd make a video showing it off, but I don't have a savefile anymore

sunken fleet posted:I think it's my rig but I had the black bars around the edges of my screen the whole game, kind of frustrating. There was a fan patch that fixed it but when I used it I started crashing every 30 minutes or so - so I went back to having black bars on the edges of the screen. PC gaming boys and girls EDIT: I am a dumb and didn't read. If you're using an Nvidia card, you can at least make the black borders go away by setting display scaling to "GPU" in Nvidia control panel. This doesn't actually make the game render at native res like it's supposed to, it just upscales the image so it fills the screen instead of being surrounded by borders.

I feel really bad for everyone who's been having issues with the PC fan-patch. It completely saved the port for me - fixed the fullscreen resolution bug and made it run better thanks to the global illumination setting. The modder recently updated it to feature a better frame-limiter than the one that comes with the game, too.

Gerblyn posted:So, I just finished ending E and I feel like my brain has been put through a blender. Although the gameplay itself had some weak spots, with regards to concept and story this is probably one of the best games I've ever played. Also, one of the most intense. I'm gonna go play Dark Souls3 now to calm down. You should play the original, if you have a 360 or a PS3. Gameplay and quality-of-life wise, it's a lot rougher around the edges, but I think the character dynamics work much better.

Pollyanna posted:What does the "Ht" "Lt" stuff mean for weapons, and does it matter which weapons I choose for my light and heavy attacks? How many hits are in the heavy and light combos. Pollyanna posted:Also, is there a trick to hunting down specific materials, or is it just typical grinding? I'm looking to upgrade Ancient Overlord, but the mats just aren't dropping or spawning. Eventually, all weapon materials will be available for purchase (except one weapon needs beast hides, but just kill some moose and boar for that). Otherwise, equip a Drop Rate chip, and if you're far enough in the game to have unlocked the merchant that sells them (they'll show up in the resistance camp at one point), buy the chip that makes items automatically get picked up like money, so you don't have to constantly stop-and-start to pick them up manually.

Papercut posted:Can I set the framerate to 144 and does that gently caress with the gameplay in any way? No, it's capped at 60 - it was developed primarily for a console that's used with 60Hz displays. This is just in terms of making the game run more smoothly. While I was looking for a post with more detailed info, I found out that the modder in question also seems to have discovered why the cutscenes are so stuttery (they're pre-rendered and run fine if you extract them and view them outside of the game itself). So it's only uphill from here.

Incidentally, the reason for the white screen bug on PC is that the game's engine doesn't know how to respond to driver crashes. Occasionally, your GPU may push itself too hard and cause a driver crash - most games know how to recover from this and reload the driver, so you barely even notice anything's happened. This one doesn't, and so if it's happening often for you, the only real solution is to turn down your GPU's base clock to avoid the issue.Storm One posted:Combo video (

RoadCrewWorker posted:Unfortunately you can't do the same thing as with the Metal Gear Rising pc port and just delete the 25 gig fmv movie folder for subsequent playthroughs because unlike Revengeance the engine won't simply skip the missing videos seamlessly but frequently has scripting break and just softlocks permanently. The FMVs don't contain any sound - the game plays them and syncs them up with the sound manually. I know sometimes the background music or some sound effects from the gameplay bleed over into the pre-rendered stuff, but surely that could just be played on top of the sound that's contained in the movie file itself. Japanese developers and PC ports, man.

RoadCrewWorker posted:I really don't think thats a "japanese devs" thing, that's how video containers with multiple audio (language) tracks work generally when played back dynamically. That's what I'm saying though, there are no audio tracks in the FMVs at all, it all comes from the game's other resource files where (presumably) all the other sounds and voices and music for the rest of the game are stored.

RoadCrewWorker posted:Oh, i misread that then, my bad. They've said they are "aware of the issues and investigating", but on the other hand, everything apart from the white screen issue and the occasional stutters have been fixed by the FAR mod. Obviously those are still sizeable issues, and even though I've had a relatively pain-free experience (three crashes over ~58 hours of play), that certainly hasn't been the case for everyone.

Augus posted:Oh my god that soundtrack cue in the (Route A spoilers) BECOME AS GODS boss fight. I KNOW!!! That song had been playing in my head ever since I saw the trailer where they first used it, and when it rolled in... aaaaah! SO GOOD. RoadCrewWorker posted:Yeah same here. I just want them to address and fix the growing perception of this being a somewhat risky port ASAP so people can get turned off the game by actually designed dick moves instead of technical issues. When stuff like this happens (company releases iffy PC port, modder(s) immediately swoop in to start fixing it), I have to wonder why they don't just contact the modder and offer them some contract work to help fix up the actual official product. IdolNinja fixed the SR2 PC port, and he got hired by Volition or THQ or whoever it was. Dias posted:I really shouldn't have to run it at 720p on a 950 when Witcher 3 is perfectly playable on 1080p, or at least I don't see anything that would hit performance that hard in this game. Have you tried installing the FAR mod and fiddling with the Global Illumination setting that comes with it? Some people have reported fairly chunky performance gains from turning that down one or two notches from the game's default. Instant Grat fucked around with this message at 17:53 on Mar 26, 2017 |

Dias posted:I installed it but didn't have the time to figure out WHERE exactly I should be fiddling about, hehe. In the menu that pops up when you hit CTRL + SHIFT + T, there's an option labeled "Nier Automata", it's under there. I think changing it in there resets when you close the game, but he might have updated that. The mod itself actually searches for updates when you launch the game, which is nifty.

I know this is a bit late, but Kaldaien has already pulled plenty of miracles with FAR. He fixed the fullscreen resolution bug, replaced the frame limiter with a better one, allowed for potentially massive performance increases by allowing players to tweak the quality of the game's Global Illumination, and fixed the cutscene stutters.

Jean-Paul's name is beeped out in spoken dialogue because they had to change his name really late into development (he was originally named Sartre). I've heard it had to do with some copyright poo poo, but I don't actually know. So that's one mystery solved.

gmq posted:Last night I got Ending A in the first Nier and I was wondering, is Ending B different or the same with more context? I just beat Gretel again and I'm not sure if getting to know the sad backstory of each boss before I kill them is worth it. It's different, but not majorly so. Getting the last two endings (which are absolutely worth it) will require you to get any weapons you might be missing, and then mainline the second half for a third time (it only takes about an hour and a bit if you speed through it). Then you save outside the point of no return, and you can go in and get one of the last two endings, reload your save, and then get the last one. This is back when Cavia still existed, remember.

A bunch are hidden in sneaky places within the world, two of them are found with the scanner (one of which is in a completely nondescript area in the desert), some are in one of the traveling merchant's rotating loadouts, and a couple more are a bit more roundabout. Honestly just look up the weapons page on the fextralife Automata wiki if you want to go for it.
