BioShock: The Collection |OT| Once is not enough.
- Thread starter DOWN
- Start date
Anyone having audio issues should try the old fix which is to either plug in a microphone *or* enable Stereo Mix as a recording device. Bet it's still fucky

Boom! Bitch-slapped!
When you go to the download page it will say 12.5. The first figure is required disk space I think.

Im playing bioshock remaster at 4k downsampled to 1080p and the game runs flawlessly, getting a locked 144 fps. The game looks super clean and I can definitely tell that the textures have been upgraded. Super happy with this, bioshock was really starting to look dated.

Nice, thanks! So much better
So, because the default Steam grid icon for Bioshock Remastered sucks major ass....
...I went ahead and made this for anyone who wants use it:
Will work on one for Bioshock 2 when I get a minute.
Your work is greatly appreciated.
Extremely high frame rates is what made the original physics calculations so jarring, glad they fixed that on these versions.

Bioshock 2 Remastered has been put in my library, but the original Bioshock Remastered hasn't yet.

Alt tabbing mid-game forced a restart and turning vsync on crashed the game, lol.
And options reset each time you start the game >_>

Isn't that done through Nvidia's control panel? It's been quite a while since I've downsampled, but thanks for the reminder!

Yeah, player caused water ripples in Bioshock 2 are missing. Just compared the remaster to the original.

Definitely seeing some improved textures and models. I have extended FOV on (on by default), not sure if it's the same as what was patched on PC originally, certainly a lot better, and reminds me why I've always liked smaller, "slim" weapon models in front of me.
Mouse aim seems identical to the original, meaning it can be a bit jumpy ......
Did BioShock 2 Remastered retain multiplayer ?

So do some of the missing water effects and audio issues exist in the PC version?

That's...concerning.
I was really looking forward to this collection, but these early reports are not the least bit encouraging. I'd love to see a deep dive on what is and isn't improved.

Yeah, the physics seem fine this time around. Really great improvement.
I am noticing the audio issues that others have mentioned though, like hearing a splicer as if he's right next to me when in fact he's down a hallway in a different room.

So... The remaster removed ultrawide support?
i7 920 @ 3.8Ghz, 12GB RAM, GTX 1070
Downsampling to 1080p from 2160p.
Frames averaging 110~160, but sometimes goes between 90~320
During the beginning when the electricity flickers, it's causing flickering on my screen. I'm thinking due to the uncapped framerate, as I recorded it with Shadowplay, but the video isn't showing it.
Edit: Yeah I turned V-Sync on, and the flickering is rendering correctly now...

Recorded a video with my phone of the flickering when V-Sync is off on my machine.

There is no Bioshock Infinite Remastered?

The original had bad flicking with vsync off too.
Not for PC, consoles basically got the PC version ported over.

The only problem I've run into is using the volume control on my keyboard (Corsair K70) will more than likely cause my game to crash back to windows. Other than that, the game runs fine.
Not really a Bioshock specific issue, strobe lights look like hell on any setup without vsync/gsync/freesync
. It's the same in the original FEAR and Dead SpaceNo, essentially this was just to bring the first two games up to BioInf's engine (as Bio1 & 2 were made on a heavily modified UE2.5, not UE3)
Hm, thanks. That's disappointing. I played with V-Sync on back when, it's just recently I've started not to.
... I really need a 144hz monitor, lol

I could never finish Bioshock, game was just too scary for me. Funny enough its not even a horror game just the atmosphere and sounds scared the hell outta me.
I stopped at the part where all the lights go off, and splicers come popping out of no where lmao.

Yeah, I was just pointing out that it wasn't a new downgrade on the remaster.

Infinite didn't manage to hold up a month after release, and Bioshock 1 has aged quite a bit. Never played 2.

Are we just talking graphics here? Because the first game is amazing for many reasons.

I love the first game, but I'm afraid to replay it for many reasons. Not just graphical reasons but how weapon upgrades are handled, moving and shooting, hacking, wonky behavior for stuff like the turrets. I think an argument can be made for how a lot of that stuff adds to the game, but I could see new players just hating it today.

played about an hour on pc. fantastic! looks great and plays great.
to be honest if people didn't bring up the water issue i probably wouldn't have noticed. i still think it looks good :/

I've only played 1 and Infinite. I loved them both. Definitely worth playing if you enjoy story driven first person shooters.
Realized I already missed the first developer reel. </headdesk>
Strange, the shadow worked fine for me.

I've only played the PS3 version, so I was blissfully unaware til everyone brought it up.
I still think it looks great as is.
