Better than nothing. Definitely taking advantage of this when the patch comes out and fixes nothing.

..... Stopped watching it when they included that misinformation about the director of marketing losing his shit on NeoGAF. That's complete bullshit.
Huh... according to the offical WB post the ocnsoles are runnign at all "normal" settings on PC. NOT high.
But that doesn't make sense since the PC has no AO and lacks higher quality shader effects...
The only graphics improvement I notice between PC and PS4, is the PC's superior view distance in terms of lighting effects (you can see the helicopter's lighting the ground int he distance, for example).
So they're still not being honest.

There's also the issue with things like missing trees on the PC.
first time I've ever seen one of these and good god it's hilarious.
I was also watching this video for an accurate account of what was going on with the game, that seems like the whole intention. I'm so angry!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's funny. second update add camera and object blur and was working fine, then the third patch broke the object blur again (this is back in December) not sure what happened after that.
Hopefully the first patch runs smoothly, but if not I'm definitely taking that offer and just waiting until the game is on sale for $4.99 like every other Batman game I've bought.

Are you sure that's not some sort of plot thing? In the previous games there were areas that visually changed when you'd completed a task there.

AMD user reporting in.
Getting -
24fps lowest
45fps average
72fps max
Getting some streaming stutters on a normal hd but 70% better now on ssd (still happens but less).
During the first Bat mobile chase I got a hard lock and was running 28fps when it happened.
Graphics options on max (yeah whatever) no Nvidea....
FX8350 black at 4.2,R9 290x with 8gig ram.

Not sure - I didn't take the pictures. The increased cherry blossoms would suggest it might be Ivy related but, then I'd also believe that the port is just THAT bad.
I'm beginning to think it's pointless to think that the game will ever be brought up to par (All missing effects/extures/models/shaders added, texture streaming/performance issues and the non-stop crashing.)
I was going to try and power through the game just for the story, so I don't have to worry about random spoilers somewhere but the game just won't stop crashing every so often. I've removed the overclock to my GPU, backed the overclock back down on my CPU to one that ran 48 hours prime stable instead of the 12 hours I tested the latest for, and still crashes every 15-20 minutes.

Does this also extend to the season pass? I would hope so.

That SEEMS to be the only difference. Anything else missing?
Damn, I was gonna make one of these later today, but looks like someone beat me to the punch.
Holy FUCK!!! This is unacceptable! Can't believe these f*ing scumbags put out a port this shitty.

The massive stuttering here isn't caused by a streaming issue however (well I mean it indirectly causes the issue), there is just an insanely big memory leak happening which causes near constant HDD access (swapping).
Damn that's crazy. No real word to explain the fuckery that is going on with this game.Images shamelessly stolen from a comment on the Eurogamer thread:

Right, geometry is even missing on PC. This is just lies.

Minor spoiler from early in the game
Ivy is in that building and once she leaves she makes the flowers there bloom I believe.

im starting to think they actually uploaded and out dated build lol
In Batman Arkham Knight for PC, players take control of the capped crusader, to drop enemies like the game drops frames. Villains so vicious, they lack a conscious like the game lacks AO and textures. When you need to even the odds, summon the batmobile and studder about Gotham with its janky controls. Investigate the disappearance of wet textures, ambient occlusion and navigate Warner Bros. massive PR spin cycle!
Featuring exclusive nvidia features like game works which is sure to leave your PC crashing. Includes an innovative DRM application known to slow down performance of games for no reason, PC and Nvidia is the place to play and experience the definitive version of Batman Arkham Knight.

Finally faced reality and submitted a refund request for the season pass. I'll probably use it to pick up the PS4 version at Bestbuy.
Just kinda pissed that I gave up my PS4 CE since I got the copy free with my 980. Which also makes me sad that I'm not getting to use it for one of the games I bought it for.
I hadn't seen a bluescreen for years and I've seen one within the first 10 minutes every time I start this up.

all these videos are always soo acurate.
Well at least I put effort into the post. The same can't be said for the PC port 😂

If only the game performed constantly like those benches.
Yup. I don't know if there's a better advert for why Average Frames Per Second alone is a terrible way to judge game performance.

You know, my copy is running like anywhere from decent to pretty shit, it's still definitely playable though. After seeing this, if the patch doesn't improve a shit ton of the game I'm getting a refund from GMG.

Just noticed on Steam there is no big ad for the game anymore. Hilariousness, shit is going down.
Just to clarify, the people who bought it off GMG have to wait for the first patch before we can get a refund?

If this is using the built in benchmark then it's obviously not indicative of actual performance. If not, then the game seems to perform pretty decently if it weren't for all the stuttering.
I know i'm in the minority and this is a really messed up port.
But i have close to zero issues. Game runs at 30 rocksteady fps. And looks great.
Even with uncapped fps it's not that bad.
Everything but smoke maxed/on. Fullscreen.
Ingame vsyinc off. Forcing vsync through nvidia inspector; Set to 1/4 refresh rate (my monitor is 120hz). Really don't know if it makes any difference. But i'm using it anyway.
Fps cap in the ini set to 30.
Single 980 with some light overclock
i5 4670k (iirc)@4ghz
8gb ram
Windows 8.1
Moved the game to SSD
