Hah. Common though, batman costume video with some justified anger?

 

[XANDER CAGE]

so this isn't the thread to discuss the performance of the game, it's this new thread?

No, other way around, haha. Sorry if that wasn't clear. Non-specific-to-performance related complaints, of which there seem to be many, can now be posted in a dedicated thread.

 

[diamount]

Yeah, that is not very helpful in the slightest. As I said, youtube videos are pretty crap for graphical comparisons. Anyway the only difference I noticed is the frequency of the rain from actually watching the video.

Go to the other thread...there's comparisons in the first post.

I wish I knew how to edit gifs =/ I tried looking it up, but I'll just post the original gif, because I feel like it's still relevant. I was gonna add a Rocksteady and WB logo to each of the guys on the couch.

It's stuff like this and the textures not looking as great as the console version.

It has the ability to look like a PS2 game without Mods.(Witcher 3 Reference)

 

[MBison]

has anyone tried to get a refund through GMG?

So pissed ugh.

 

[kriven4437]

I had thought about it but I think they could care less

 

[gordon1470]

Well, I'll probably just play City until this gets fixed. I'm waiting for a patch for a few more days and then I'll probably refund it.

 

[suddenlyissoon]

I've been playing since 7 without a single issue. No memory leak (3.5-5gb used the entire time), no huge slowdowns (did not edit the configure file. Still locked to 30). Definitely not getting AO or the other rain/fabric features from the video but overall, no problems.

 

[d00d3n]

Oh no, the console gamers are playing the game with two graphical effects that are currently bugged on PC. How could a PC gamer who is currently playing and enjoying the game continue to do so?

Well, the graphical effects that are bugged have a major visual impact (proof below). I am sure that it is possible to enjoy the game if you find it acceptable to play an inferior and gimped version.

At least the hair is better. What res is the pc running in the video? Might explain how its generally better looking minus AO

Xbox is pretty darn blurry overall, must 900p or something

Borrowed pics from the main OT, here's an example of the missing rain/water shader.

XO shot:

PC shot:

Not sure if this has been posted, not my image either:

Seriously though, what the hell is wrong with the missing graphical effects on the PC version? A bug or some weird form of parity?

I'm attempting it but not expecting anything. Who knows though.

[leng jai]

Just got around to trying this on my 970/2500k. The stuttering is absolutely insane - the worst I've seen in ages. It's a literal slideshow once you get into combat.

I don't even have any of the Nvidia options enabled. How the fuck do you release something this bad?

 

[spannicus]

Tweaked some settings now getting anywhere from 111fps down to 60. It varies but rarely drops below 60.

I7 4790K

Maintaining 80fps as we speak. Check link, this is what I did. hope it works for you guys! by the way EVERYTHING IS MAXED including Nvidia stuff!

[void666]

Drove the batmobile around gotham for quite some time. Mostly minor stuttering. I had one small hiccup but i know it was caused by the smoke effects.

Now i'll move the game to the SSD to see if there's any improvement.

 

[jim2point0]

WTF??? That cannot possibly be legit?

Because it's not.... that comparison was made back in February....

Original post is here

From previous PS4 footage
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6qaN4NbmtY

Models are very similar, but no indirect lighting at all and worse shaders.

 

[Crypt]

It keeps crashing on me around the area where the arsonist mission

Spoiler

burning bat symbol

starts. The game just doesn't like me being around that particular area I guess. It's done it on different missions.

 

[Salsa]

welp yeah

cannot play this


here's the funny part: the game actually runs fine with my hardware. WHEN its running

55-60fps average on benchmark, solid 30 in-game

BUT

it basically mini freezes every 2 seconds. dunno if its vram or a hard drive issue (even tho I blame the game's coding for both) but the whole computer will basically stop making any noise for a few seconds at a time

it's unplayable, it aint even stuttering, literally mini 1-2 sec freezes every 1-2 seconds


I was getting it even during cutscenes when the game is rendering nothing

care sharing what did you tweaked please, my only difference to you is the processor, i have an i7 2600k @4.5, will appreciate it, thanks

 

[Red Hood]

I think you accidentally installed the wrong driver for your OS (there was a mixup on the AMD site). Check your file name, the OS version (e.g. Win 7) must be there. Here you can download the correct version:

http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/latest-catalyst-windows-beta.aspx

D'oh, I'm an idiot! You're completely right, I somehow downloaded the Windows 8.1 version. I could have swear I clicked Win 7 64-bit. Anyway, thanks!

Somehow I don't seem to be getting the drops any more. I've glided around Gotham for 15 minutes and the heaviest drop I got was around 22, not too frequent now though, whereas earlier today I got drops to mid-tens and frequently even lower. I'll try again tomorrow and see if it keeps this way before I get optimistic.

I followed all the steps except for the allow D3D10
Didnt change the MSAA
Didnt turn off bloom or reflections

Also look at comments, i did what the comments said also.

 

[Salsa]

Yeah after a while of playing it turns to liquid shit.

it actually does it moreso for me when I first start it up

I dont know if im gonna try moving it to the SSD cause it really feels like a texture streaming issue or something. like the game is reading the hard drive constantly

how are monitoring frames? because for some reason fraps stooped working for me, out of nowhere

what extra bothers me is that I can tell right away that a solid 30fps wouldnt bother me in this game

Bummer.

This wide range of reactions is insane.

 

[seriosbrad]

Trolled my brother by crashing his game by requesting to view his broadcast, that crashes this game lol. At least there's some fun to be had.

 

[JohngPR]

I get the same performance. I also get no crashing or memory leak problems.

But far be it from me to inject any level of positivity about the game.

You are one of the few, it seems. Consider yourself very fortunate. Game on for you then! Enjoy, I genuinely mean that, BTW.

 

[Lockjaw333]

Yeah, it has enough effects going on that 30fps isn't that much of a bother. Its ridiculous that people with 970s and 980s would need to compromise at 30fps, but its doable in this game.

The problem is it cant even hold a solid 30 to save its own life. The first batmobile section, aka "even the odds", was the most atrocious I've seen a game run in a long, long time on PC. The game held a 5 fps framerate for a good 5 seconds at one point, and there were pauses of 1-2 seconds at a time. (I'm running a 2500K @ 4.0ghz and 970)

That with all of the missing effects, its just not playable right now. I really hope they can eventually fix it, but who knows how long that will take. When the problems are as deep as this it takes a while. FC4 had horrible streaming and stuttering issues at launch and it took at least a month if I recall to get rid of MOST of the stuttering, not all. A few months before the game was completely smooth.

 

[Guffers]

What in the hell is with this game? I've been downloading since yesterday (Australian Internet for the win) My download reached 25 gig and then reset back to zero. Now it's back up to 6 gig.

If you want to monitor FPS things like fraps and Afterburner overalys won't work with the Smoke or Paper Gameworks options on. For whatever reason.

Witcher 3 mods barely improve the graphics yet and it usually looks amazing and, more importantly, even lets an average PC run it at 60 FPS.
