12gb? Time to download some extra ram

Download more RAM has got you covered.

 

[Krappadizzle]

So they've labeled all reviews from when the game released on steam as 'pre-release reviews'.
Can you get any more fucking arrogant?

Lol. That is so scummy.


This time for real guys..,,

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

My game crashes on startup now. Fuck you WB.

12GB RAM, my god.

Anyway, if you want a cheap copy and all the others as per the news.

[LurkerPrime]

Don't buy from grey market key resellers. Not even for Arkham Knight.

 

[telasoman]

I got a copy from buying a 980ti. It ran like crap at first, but after the first major patch to fix PC issues it ran like a dream for the entire game.

Not sure if I got lucky or what, but I got through it with no problem.

Grey market is grey market, and my understanding is all grey market are banned on gaf.

Here's a hint: you're using like the second most powerful GPU on the market. You can out-horsepower most issues.

Oh cool my gift for waiting three months is a bunch of games I already own and it sounds like I can't even gift extra copies

Thanks WB

Q6600
8800GT
4Gigs DDR2

Then, that performance would make sense.

This is incredible! Great job WB!

Time to pull it from the store again and release it sometime in 2016.

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

Damn Salsa...

this is just depressing

 

[Spaghetti]

so let me get this straight

after like six months of extra development time

it is still fucked?

 

[Salsa]

Man. Fuck that. What are your specs?

OCed 680 2gigs
i5 2500k at 4.4ghz
8 gigs of ram

like, maybe the ram? even tho its well beyond what it should need?

all is set to Low, also.

 

[pahamrick]

It's so fucked I got better performance at launch when it was 'broken'.

 

[Vitor711]

Well, they unfucked it a little with the first major interim patch, and then decided to fuck it A LOT with the latest one. What a mess.

I remember your launch day vid of the Batmobile just chugging your system like crazy, optimized my ass

 

[Salsa]

its basically the same as far as performance goes

I dont know what they did beyond adding DLC support, but it virtually feels like nothing at all.

 

[PROJECTZERO]

So its just as bad as it was before?

 

[sflufan]

So it's 49.99 at re-release, is that the same price as it was at launch? Or was it 59.99?

It was $59.99 at launch.

 

[dh4niel]

If it was 30 bucks with all the DLC maybe I'd bite.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Verified my game cache, is still just crashes on startup. I am on Windows 10 and only have 8 gigs of ram. Maybe I need 12.

 

[TemplaerDude]

Yeah, I think I'll hold off again. Someone needs to yell at them.

 

[BeastlyMandible]

So its just as bad as it was before?

At least in my experience, it's running worse than it did at launch. Seems results are varying, though.

 

[Ludens]

All Premium users not only got zero compensations (probably they already own all Batman games), but also they can't play any DLCs despite having the season pass. Great job, WB, great job.

 

[Nzyme32]

Just tried this for ten minutes on a 4670K+280X.

Eventually, it started stuttering again, the action stopping for full seconds at a time. This patch has done nothing but enable DLC.

Yeah.

Fuck WB.

Fuck Rocksteady.

And fuck their apologists.



How nice, I'll restart my game every 10 minutes.

I agree that they indeed are a bag of dicks, especially with MKX and BAK exemplifying the worst I have seen from PC ports. However, I don't recall issues with Mad Max & Shadow of Mordor, which I intend to eventually buy. This is a great example of why preorders should be avoided. I knew the bad history of HVS, but I still wanted MKX since I am a huge MK fan, so I disregarded my own rule for the first time in years and went for it, and I was hilariously burned for it, but that serves me right for putting faith in a company doing the right thing for PC gamers and their own product / reputation.

All the situation did is make me even more determined to avoid those situations

that's about what I paid.

Agreed. And it really seems to come down to whether the developer decides (or has it decided for them) to give the PC edition to a third party. That's when shit like Mortal Kombat X and Arkham Knight happen. When the original developer, like Avalanche or Rockstar with Max Payne 3 and GTA V, takes their time and does the PC port themselves these things don't seem to happen.

wait wait wait, people who bought AK get the rest of the arkham series free

but what about the people who already own them? if there's nothing for them that's a kick in the teeth.

We get TF2 items and early access to a DLC pack.

Yay us.

Genuine quality TF2 item(s) are a good deal. Really!

ButtFuckYourMama says it's all good.

I like that they are marking reviews from today as pre-release still.

Because Avalanche and Monolith are both PC developers also they made both in house and WB was just the publisher those PC ports are great because they made PC games for a very long time.

[ViewtifulJC]

All you need is 16GB of RAM and a 980

 

[Nete]

I was able to play and beat the game without many problems when it was released with everything "maxed" except the Gameworks things, turned off. Yeah, I had some freezes and shit, but was playable.

Now, with the same exact settings is a fucking slideshow.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

Hi everyone! I’m going to jump in and help out Yorick as a second pair of eyes and ears for you all.

With the game now available for sale, I wanted to provide a status update since the release of the September patch.

As we confirmed earlier today, the PC version of the game now supports all add-on content that has been released thus far for console. The configurations for this content are being updated now and we expect everything to be available in the next few hours. We’ll confirm when this process is completed.

We are still working with our GPU partners to add full support for SLI and Crossfire. In addition, we are working with these partners to address stability issues on certain cards related to the latest drivers.

After extensive testing, a hard drive paging issue with some GPUs on Windows 7 may occur after extended gameplay sessions. If you encounter this, simply re-launching the game will resolve the issue.

For Windows 10 users, we’ve found that having at least 12GB of system RAM on a PC allows the game to operate without paging and provides a smoother gameplay experience.

Four months...

 

[OnionPowder]

And my friends thought I was dumb for getting 16GB of DDR4

 

[Megauap]

I don't have the DLC nor the TF2 items (got a Nvidia key).
Anyone else is missing them?

 

[Salsa]

I mean, you're not, but don't get it twisted that this game's ridiculous "requirements" reflect what they should be and what actually good ports need.

i'm going to invent time travel so i can go back and tell myself to never buy an arkham game after asylum.

TF2 items will be crowdsourced in November and probably distributed later than that.

No idea about DLC problems.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I'm sure they'll be great, but two and a half weeks for the contest is an incredibly short amount of time to concept, model, rig and then submit items, so there probably won't be any super complex items.
