At some point, have you installed drivers for the DS4? They can get in the way of Steam recognizing it.

do yourself a google and search up the phrase you just quoted lol

I believe any game made before 1997 is "essentially cave man art."
the cutscenes are locked to 30.
Nope was during first clock fight
I'm running it off a fairly old HDD and it's just as fast, they might as well have taken those sections out of the PC version.
Little known fact: you can lock into the practice loading screens by pressing the Back button on your controller when you enter the loading screen (be quick!). Once there, you can practice to your heart's content. Press Back again to leave the practice session.
Have at it.

My 980 is eating this game for breakfast at 4k. Max settings (4xmsaa, which might actually not work right now), vsync on.
Maybe restart your comp, maximum perf in NCP, etc.

Well damn. That is weird. Try turning it off in game and adding v-sync through Nvidia settings.
Yeah. I'm running on a 3770k with a 1070 with 16gb of ram and I'm playing at 4k with max settings and it's been 60fps the entire time so far.

Quick question while homeboy has a tantrum about his mouse
I take it this is a pretty solid port? All I want is 1080/60 so im not asking for much

Figured out my problem, kinda.
Basically, for some reason, on my work PC, Steam stopped updating... in October. It would go through the motions, go "okay, done!" and then still be stuck on a pre-DS4 build. I had to move my steamapps folder, uninstall steam, reinstall steam, then move my games back. Now I'm on a March build, and everything Just Works. The "Controller Settings" menu is there and everything. I still had to reinsert the controller while in Big Picture Mode to get it to add to my account, and actually be seen as a DS4.
It's not like these games can't work well with keyboard and mouse, it's that Platinum aren't putting in the work.
They might even be okay to play right now, but I can't get past the terrible negative mouse acceleration that all of their ports have had so far.
The main thing devs have to do for third-person games to feel good with KB&M is to have 1:1 mouse inputs, and to never lock the camera position during attacks.
You never notice that on a dual-analog controller since you have to move your thumb from the right stick to hit the buttons. It feels really bad when that happens and you're using a mouse.
Unfortunately these problems never get any attention because everyone just yells that you "should be using a controller anyway".
This acceleration is also applied to the gamepad inputs too, but you wouldn't notice unless you were using a Steam Controller.
That would be my preference for these games; using the Steam Controller with mixed inputs. XInput for movement and attacks, and mouse for moving the camera. (or aiming in Nier)
I have to play all of their ports with a DualShock 4, which is at the bottom of my list of input devices that I want to use. I hate using that thing.
Try borderless windowed mode rather than fullscreen - possibly with V-Sync disabled.

How you fight with the keyboard?
Iono, I kinda doubt that. The SSAO performance hit is ridiculous, and some alpha heavy scenes tank the framerate down to 40. Best examples are the exploding clocktower in the prologue and the second fight vs. Fortitudo where one of the heads is stuck in the wall. And I'm talking a locked, unwavering 60 fps, not just during general fights vs small enemies.

It's honestly not worth putting work into, the vast majority of people playing Bayonetta aren't using a keyboard.
I have an RX480 and an i7 920 (weird combination, I know). Game is basically unplayable, even on low.
I don't really blame them since my CPU is ten years old, but it does fine for just about every other game I play. I guess this just a PSA that if you have an old CPU like I do it might not co-operate, even if you have a good GPU.
Somehow manged to keep the platinums going, however...

Check out this link for all the details for 21:9 http://steamcommunity.com/app/460790/discussions/0/135514151378960310/
DSR and Transparency AA work. I'll settle for this ATM.
Learn Dodge Offset and try PPKP. That's a solid launcher.
TBH enemies in Bayo1 are a lot more "reactive" than Bayo2. Learn Dodge Offset and you'll be launching enemies all over the map with Wicked Weaves. That's how you keep enemies under control.
Bayo2 enemies are immobile walls by comparison.

Open borderlands in another window.
I want a verse select first.

I've been doing dodge offset and I'm just looking for a cheap way to get enemies into a launch state quickly.
(afterburner kick was so nice in 2 since you could pretty much open a combo with it and I've been relying too much on muscle memory so I'm getting whiffs everywhere in this game since it was my go to weave cancel move)
PPKP xx afterburner kick is pretty good then you can do the ground bounce weave when you're in the air...
Assuming an enemy doesn't fall out of your combo.
I didn't realize that certain enemies flip out of your combo outside of witch time... wanna learn how to catch them and stop them from landing...
I wouldn't even need a verse select if they took the QTEs out. I have harrowing memories of having to repeat the end of chapter 2 over and over again.

Gonna macro this into my Cronus Max
K thx Bai
You joke but Steam actually lets you map stuff like this to a single button nowadays. Pretty crazy.
You don't need to put in nearly this much effort to keep most enemies from getting out of your combo in Bayonetta 1. Any enemy without a health bar is only going to get out of your combo if they parry, and any enemy with a health bar is probably only going to get out of your combo if they parry (with the exception of gracious and glorious and anything with super armor).
Oftentimes I just let them break out of the combo and then parry their followup since you know it's coming fast.
Capped at 60.

This thread made me hate the word "dip", so good job.
At least I can play this now after having missed out on the special edition bundle with Bayo 2 on WiiU.

Wasn't this fixed in the Wii U version?
I wonder what version of the game this port was based on then? Old PC in-developement code, 360 version?
BTW, has anyone gotten far enough to see if they put a checkpoint/chapter select option before everyone's favorite Jeanne fight?
Weird. My 1060 clocks are where they should be and everything.

How am I supposed to play all these games gaf? Playing persona 5 now. Still haven't played nier now there is bayonetta...1st world problems etc etc
It doesn't have the fullscreen issue, but the MSAA setting is broken.
It performs much better, but it's a linear 360 game, so there's that.
There are so many games that it's becoming a problem in the third world as well.

Verse select would be a fucking game changer for pure platinum runs
Kilgore glitch was in the Wii U version.
One of the things that I like about Bayo1 is that there are lots of ways to get absurdly high combo scores (I recall n472a having a video where he got crazy scores using Punish Attacks, and your score will be high as long as you make smart use of WWs). While Kilgore kind of breaks the leaderboards, I don't find that it's existence detracts from the rest of my experience with the game. Also, it's hilarious and semi-iconic.
Wolverine and whip ladies have been flipping out of the air combos, so I'm likely doing something wrong.
Really wanna keep them in the air somehow...
EDIT:
I like how google brings me Smash combos lol

Bit better. Sega Europe realized that people like having an in-game borderless windowed option
Piss filter will probably be easy to get rid of on PC.
Bayo in 4K/60FPS must be glorious, not matter the low res textures, that can also be better via mods.
This game on PC is like the second coming. I didn't buy it yet but I'm going to crack in the next hour. :lol
His comment is actually hilarious if you know the full context.
And it's an action game, hell one with auto-targeting. You don't need fine camera control.

Welcome to Platinum Games.
Didn't play Bayo 2?
Wonderful 101 also had a completely different background style.
