Got to the what I think is the first major dungeon in the game.
Beforehand, while I was doing exploring in the first open area:

Ah neat, an enemy named Gorewood. I can take him! ....WHY AM I DOING NO DAMAGE MUST ESCAPE I CAN'T NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Also near the beginning (before major dungeon) I could've
totally taken Thane, but his three vertical hits when his health is low is just annoying.

Well I got 3 emails, one with the Darksiders II game, the second with the Argul's Tomb DLC, and the third one with the Season Pass.... I added the first one, and was successful, I added the season pass and it was ok, I went to the downloadable content tab and I noticed that "Crucible Pass" was added and "Season Pass" too, when I try to add the Argul's Tomb it says "You already own the product", so I checked on the Darksiders Community page, and I saw that SledgeHammer said that you need to redeem the Argul's Tomb on this site www.darksiders.com/tomb, so I went to that site, tried to redeem the code, this is what I got:
Redeem Argul's Tomb

Use it. Vsync always with triple buffering

Sorry to hear that.
I preordered thru GMG and have not received anything for the Argus Tomb. I only received the two weapons from linking my accounts (which the codes are not available yet) and the facebook page weapon.

Alright, my only problem with the game so far:
I've got a 360 pad hooked up. When I control Death with the left stick, it feels smooth. When I rotate the camera with the right stick, it looks all stuttery and just doesn't feel smooth. I don't see tearing, it just doesn't feel smooth.
I've tried it with both Vsync/triple buffering on and off through my Catalyst Control Panel to no avail... :/

I had no tearing/framerate issues on my 670. Only tech problems so far...
1) The inventory screen Death model, holy shit 800x600 rez
2) In that opening tunnel, the moon or something was making a lens flare through the entire thing even though you're in a cave
3) Game flipped back to desktop randomly and when I returned the mini-map was a black circle until I hit another zone

I think someone said a few pages back that you can find every "pre-order" exclusive in-game, with different stats.

Yeah bro, but I've sent an email to ds2support@thq.com I hope they can't help me
This is what I found someone saying in the Steam forums.
"no, its key is your game product Key, as you activate the game on steam the dlc comes with the game. I called them to make sure, that's what they said."

Just wanted to say THANK YOU! This worked brilliantly. The game runs flawlessly. No tearing and buttery smooth with not a single hitch. If I knew you, I'd hug you.scitek said:

That's what I figured, since I never got any key from GMG
I'll worry about it when it comes out. If I don't get it I just won't play it
Probably won't play this until next week. Still collecting the Triforce in the original and honestly I'm kinda burnt out :s
PC port problems don't do anything to alleviate that. Gonna go play Persona and see what's good in a week. Hopefully I'll have finished and digested the first one by then and be hungry for more
I'd hardly say anyone is turning on the game. Plenty of console port bitching to be sure, but so far it's looking like Darksiders II is one of the best action games that we'll see all year.
I've only played about the first hour or so, but it's fucking incredible. There are plenty of live streams up on TwitchTV if you're interested in seeing it.

Still, the game is much better suited to a 360 pad on PC.
I was getting motion sickness with the game because of the stuttering, and I think this fixed it for me. I still notice a tiny tiny bit of stuttering, but it no longer makes me feel sick, so thank you very much for this.

So its running for me and its running wonderfully... at 120fps.
Yay, kinda wish vsync worked.
Edit: And yeah, after one hour I can already tell this is probably the best action game of the year.

Which set of drivers you're talking about? I'm using the latest beta ones from Geforce.com and I don't have a Darksiders II profile.

That's you forcing AA. Try to switch to the latest beta drivers or use FXAA instead.
restart steam
Woah woah, being able to change FoV in a PC-title? Let's not get too excited now shall we.

So the Argul's Tomb comes with the Main Game?
I have. I even uninstalled and reinstalled. Still doesn't work. The window that says its initializing pops up. Disappears. Nothing happens.

Is it bad that I'm happy that I can at least change the resolution and the fps is above 60?
I'm normally a stickler for PC options but after the horror surrounding the coming Dark Souls port I'm just happy this isn't complete shit.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Played briefly. Looks nice and clean, if obviously a straight console port not pushing PC hardware in any significant way. Keyboard controls are crud, as expected, so I'm going to wait for my 360 pad to arrive before I sink in. Of what I played moving Death around the environment and the combat flowed much smoother and felt nicer than War. Death still looks like he is straight out of Slipknot. Awesome score.
Look forward to playing it. First Sleeping Dogs, then this. Hopefully by the time my pad arrives and Dogs is done and dusted there will be a few tweaks to clean up the game.

Yes, Apparently it automatically becomes available roughly a month after release.
Find the file in the folder and try from there?
I had no issues either! High five!

Gah, I hope I don't have too many issues on PS3 later. I hope everything gets sorted out for y'all soon on the PC side.
305.53, I got them from here.
The compatibility bit is 0x00001241. I don't know if it'll work with older drivers.
I also had absolutely zero issues. I feel the need to chime in as well so not every person who reads this thread thinks the game is a disaster, because it's not.

So I can't understand why Digital River sent me an email with the Argul's Tomb key since apparently it comes with the Main Game, well thank you very much for your info bro!

I only had the initial thing with the loading page not working. After that smooooth sailing.
Sleeping Dogs it is. Might as well get it on PS3 so i can redeem some value for it in the future.

Thanks, works like a charm. And no stuttering! =)
Though I can't find an option to enable triple buffering on MSI's OSD. Can I run it together with D3DOverrider?
Im so confused, so I got 3 emails earlier , one for Ds2, one for Argul's Tomb and one for the Season Pass. The one for the actual game had a download link and I've just finished downloading the game and starting installing it. Now steam is asking for the product key which I can't find. WTF THQ? Anyone who ordered from THQ have any words of wisdom?
Nevermind, they apparently dont mail you the key.
The general sense of direction and guidance from THQ for those of us new to order from them has been as clear as bacon.

You can, but I'm forcing triple buffering and vsync through Inspector, though I also have D3DOverrider open at all times, but I'm pretty sure Inspector overrides it.

Try what scitek posted, Salsa. It cleared up all of the stuttering I was seeing.
