Phew, that's good news if you would have doubted the time the last patch came out too

Boom! Bitch-slapped!

With the Batgirl DLC just a week and a half out, they really have to have fixes in place by then or it's not only more negative publicity, but another big hit to their bottom line.
Considering their track record, that sounds like a bad idea...
It still wouldn't surprise me.

That depends on your definition of the word "playable".
Despite the addition of AO and rain textures on Bats and the Batmobile, sadly, it's still a stuttering mess.

Not true for everyone. I'm playing just fine and are others

Yes, and my 970 plays it "fine" as well. The fact of the matter is that the game still stutters and hitches, more so the longer one plays, for those at or above the system requirements.
Hence until we get a proper patch, the Bat is still broken.
I just played for the last 4 hours straight and I didn't have any stuttering.

Outstanding news! Make sure you let WB know so they can put it back up for sale on the Steam page... they can even subtitle it "The Pigs Edition".

I had the game running and playing way too much today, spent most of the time picking up the Riddler's shit, did a little main and side missions and got the Batmobile on the third island and did some more. My frame rate has been stable at 30 but when in combat with more than five enemies it feels like there's a disconnect where it just kind of feels sluggish at times, especially while countering and it's very annoying. Not sure if it's actually an issue with the PC version or the game itself in maybe they've messed with the window for countering. I think there was some sort of hitch or something off with the frame pacing while running around but I might just be tired, didn't notice anything while driving around.
Rocksteady doesn't care about the fourth of July though so they'll be working, definitely not getting a patch this weekend though, more likely next week at the earliest though not sure if they're going to be releasing the Batgirl story DLC on PC at the same time as consoles or not if the game isn't even available to sell.

After adding more ram it became playable for me, though some stuttering returned after unlocking more islands.
Also my endgame batmobile skin is gone... it's not even in the showcase so I can't reselect it, smh.

Nvidia France still pimping out PC version of Batman like nothing happened. Have they no shame? And yeah no wonder they sell you a pc with a single 980Ti considering their game ready drivers with SLI profile is borked lol

With textures on low, and smoke off, I'm doing 1080/30 on a 680, so a 970 should obviously do way better. With the textures it's obviously just a memory issue.
Honestly, people exaggerate how bad performance is. I actually think the graphics/framerate ratio is pretty decent, if you don't have any stuttering.

Another non-helpful "my shit works, stop complaining!" Post
Game was pushed out broken, they knew it was broken and it's broken for plenty of people.
But he asked how the game performs. One person said that he could get 1080/30 wihout gameworks, I said he could probably do better. What's wrong with that.
Besides, I never defended anything. I said that performance (as in FPS) was pretty okay if you disregard all the other issues, which I nevern said don't exist. 1080/30 almost maxed on a 3.5 year old card is pretty okey performace if you ask me, especially of you keep in mind how fucking good the game looks. Maybe we just have difference ideas of what performance means, and this was just a big misunderstanding.

The game doesn't look nearly great enough to be not running at 60fps at 1080p on a 970. It doesn't even stay at 60fps at 1080p on state-of-the-art monster rigs. (see TB's port report, he runs 2 Titan Xs) It doesn't match up to Witcher 3 in terms of technical scale and fidelity, but TW3 runs much, much better on same hardware. Finally Rocksteady admits to the extent of these issues and literally ceases to sell the game, and here you are downplaying our problems by dismissing them as overexaggeration.
I'm not downplaying anything; the port is fucked and the issues are massive, but if the only issue was low FPS WB wouldn't have taken the game off sale.

I have a 970 and a i5 4690k. Game is a unplayable mess. Constant stuttering and hitching, texture problems, memory leaks.
Can't understand for the life of me why you're constantly defending this shitshow in this thread.
Clearly you have other issues than framerate.
As I said, the port is fucked, but if you disregard stuttering, texture streaming, low res texture bugs, memory downclocking, and all other issues, framerates are actually decent. It's not good, but it works. It's not downright fucking broken like the rest of the game. That's all I'm saying.
Let's not argue semantics.

Performance isn't only framerate. Everything you mentioned is part of it, and it sucks.
Yes, really. Performance as in FPS.

No, it isn't.
Is 1080p30 on a 680 not decent? From what I've seen a fluctuating ~1080p60 seems to be attainble with a 980Ti. Sounds pretty decent to me. Not good, but decent.
Älg;170850626 said:
If a game ran at 60fps but stutters and spikes you would call that a good performance, and then make the distinction that you're only talking about "performance as in FPS" while "performance as in the other things 'performance' includes" is completely broken? What is the point are you trying to make?
What I was trying to say initally was that if you don't have any stuttering, which some (most?) people don't, then the game has okay performance/framerates, and that 970 can probably get more than 1080p30 with gameworks off. Then I made a comment with a cocky attitude and shit derailed.

You have some low standards, damn. 980Ti is a powerhouse compared to a measly 680, should be cranking 1440p/60 without a sweat.

That's not what I'd call decent. I reckon not many people are buying a 980ti to play at 1080p.

Seems that some people are having terrible issues and others aren't. I am completely satisfied with the 60fps I am getting. I am now running at 1080p/60fps with extra lights and AA now. Batmobile has its occasional dips but I see no texture issue or slowdowns with everything else.
its very strange.
its very strange.

The game literally stops at times, good stuff for the framerate. 970 here
We're really just arguing semantics here. Let's not.
Heh yea im runnning msi gtx 970 and on ocassion the game just freezes for 4-5 secs and runs again, maybe to release gas or something..
Lets not act like a single 980ti is going to get 60 fps minimum max settings in all games at 1080p

I still can't get watch dogs running without frame rate dips whilst driving on a 980ti lol, that felt like a punch in the gut.
As for Arkham Knight, I'm starting to experience stutter in cutscenes and freezing at times in game, seems to get worse as I go on with the story.
Playing I7 4770k and win 7 normal hdd.
Älg;170867048 said:
People are responding to you that the 980Ti should be owning 60fps@1080p instead of fluctuating. That's an objectively verifiable and observable problem with the performance of this game, which is central to this entire discussion. And you're calling that "arguing semantics"?
You've gotta be trolling at this point.

It typically takes a notoriously demanding effect or something like 8x MSAA to push a GTX 980 ti at 1080p. Something like Hairworks in Witcher 3 or the Ultra Foliage setting in GTA V but the card is definitely targeting higher resolutions. 1080 60+ fps min, is something that should at the very least be achievable on a GTX 980 ti with some reasonable tweaking for any game that scales in a way that I would consider acceptable.
I can play at 1080p60 on a 4690K/970, and it works very well... for about an hour, after which all 8 GB of my RAM have been consumed by memory leaks, and the game dips into my page file. So it becomes Batman: Slideshow Knight. I might be able to fix this with more RAM or an SSD, but I shouldn't fucking have to. Until it's fixed, I'm just glad Witcher 3 is a very long game.
I kinda feel that way basically. Well, I can't think of a game I've tried that would go against that. I tried a lot of games yesterday.
1440p gets 60fps with most games but not if you want the best aa.
With pascal hopefully, or some better optimisation, lazy devs squandering my 980ti.
I picked up evga sc+, boost to around 1400.
Well depending on AA and gameworks it might not, everything else sure it will for a while.
