Support NeoGAF

[Gnasher]

Just installed the patch on Xbox One (3GB) aaaaaand
...
...
...

Didn't change a thing. Just as unplayable as before. I have no way to measure the framerate here, but it feels exactly like it did before. Maybe it's 22 instead of 19 fps now? I don't know.

This is fucking embarrassing.

Hmm guess this stays as one for the future then.... if they could only sort that frame rate out i'd bite!

I found this video:

Same happen to me. And for my standards this is unplayable. I wish I could uninstall the patch

 

[ArjanN]

Depends on your specs. On a single 970 i5, I run the game 70-80fps no issues.
The only slowdowns are super huge explosions but its runs pretty well otherwise.

Same for me, but I built a new PC this year.

Still, the shorter load times would be nice, especially for sake of the challenge stuff.

Xbox One here

It plays even worse now.

Lol Jesus Christ

 

[dragonflys545]

Embarrassing... I feel like crap buying this shitty ass game now.

 

[ZeroX03]

I would really like to play this game someday, come on SE and Avalanche...

Holy fuck

This would be funny were it not so sad

 

[Neoxon]

So the DLC update basically allows you to play as Falcon as you infiltrate the Helicarrier. Am I wrong?

 

[DrBo42]

+1. I'll totally buy this on XB1 for some Superman flight suit action if the FPS was decent.

 

[shikamaroooo]

Looks like it might be finally time to pick this up.

Yup me too, enjoyed part 2

 

[dragonflys545]

Please read the rest of the thread before you make that decision.

 

[Corpekata]

Really hope the initial load is fixed considerably. Game runs well on my PC, but that initial 2 minuteish load really dampers my desire to play the game. It's a game I like to jump into for 15-30 minutes for quick bursts, and the inability to get into the game fast really kills momentum.

 

[geomon]

I'm still waiting for the Scorpion Gun DLC Gamestop is supposed to give us for our decision to preorder. It'll be released "someday".

 

[xamidoxhua]

I would really love to get back into it, but like Watch_Dogs before it (no shooting out of cars), one admission left the game feeling fundamentally poorly designed (lack of sprint.)

I meant I get trying to push people to get creative with the movement tools but leaving out sprint in a 2016 game is just embarrassing.

This and no duck. Both were in JC2, both things I used, and both things I noticed immediately were missing.

 

[HamsterPackage]

Just bought it on sale. Hows this gonna run with a i-5 , 16 gig of ram, and a r9 390? before the patch obviously...

 

[KiefbladeMaster]

Should have traded this in a while ago. The framerate when invading any moderate sized city/base is horrible (as in, easily sub 30fps).

 

[abracadaver]

In 1080p you should have no problem getting 60fps with almost everything on highest settings

Some settings can be turned off/down to increase performance with almost no visual impact. (Bokeh DOF for example)

Thanks! now just to wait till its done downloading. I'll try and beat it before the Division comes out.

There is a duck hidden in one of the lake. Check some videos on YT. Achievement Hunter did one in the 1st month if I remember correctly.

some sky fortress footage

Spoiler

- 3-4 hours of new story
- jetpack wingsuit w/ machinegun / lock-on missiles
- drone assist rebel drop
- at least 1 new gun
- bunch of new assets tied to a sky fortress

 

[Primus]

The PC version of the patch has been delayed until "next week", because I don't know we smell or something.

To correct yesterday’s announcement on the JC3 patch - console users should see the patch filter through today, PC gamers should expect this next week. Please stay tuned and we will update you with the patch date as soon as possible.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

Of course... I hope the PC version fares better.

I know it's not a big deal in the scheme of things, but I wish they would fix motorcycle handling. Goddamn atrocious. Still happy to see some patching and improvements. Still thinking about season pass...

Turned it on, flew around, blew some stuff up. I definitely didn't notice any reduction in performance. Will report back tonight after more extensive destruction and more loads.
This is my biggest complain, too. I really hope they fix motorcycle handling... it's broken.

Mine as well, so disappointing, IDK how anyone there thought motorcycle handling was even remotely acceptable, I was actually looking forward to driving in the game too.

Probably won't even try playing, I know my hung gpu bug wont be fixed :/

Do you have to bring everything back to Marvel? Damnit Neoxon, you have failed this forum.

 

[B4D1E]

I tested the game this morning on Xbox One, for just a few minutes. The load time hasn't increased. Is it me or aliasing is worse than before. And last but not least, the supposed increased draw distance just showed a bunch of houses with no textures.

I'll try to test for a much extended time, but I'm not positive about this patch!

Edit: I was able to test for a longer time. Apparently the bad aliasing and the texture in the draw distance were due to the game still loading. I didn't encounter those issues after a few minutes. The performance were good, I liberated a base on an island in Scirocco,and despite huge explosions, the framerate didn't dive like crazy.

I hope they'll continue to improve the game. I have a lot of fun, despite those issues.

 

[Sidewinder]

Hmm bargain bin it is then, or maybe even just used if they don't fix it at all.

 

[Jarrod38]

Couldn't even get pass the main menu.

[DrBo42]

I don't think Avalanche has said a peep about what people are experiencing with this patch. Really shitty.

 

[vypek]

I doubt they will anytime soon

 

[Jarrod38]

I forgot to mention had to reinstall the game to get that issue to go away.

 

[Livingskeletons]

Terrible and completely unacceptable.

 

[Jarrod38]

Terrible and completely unacceptable.

I'm sure it's a one time thing but it's fixed now. Anyways played for a bit and yep the frame rate is worse even just driving can cause it to drop.

 

[DrBo42]

I forgot to mention had to reinstall the game to get that issue to go away.

So digital owners will have to redownload the entire game to fix that? Lol.

 

[matrix-cat]

Sounds like it's the patch that smells. If it's going to screw up my game even worse I'm happy for them to leave it in the oven for another week.

 

[danowat]

The same way they thought releasing a performance patch that actually gives worse performance?

AKA complete lack of QA

 

[danowat]

Just got round to trying the new patch, and not only is the loading times massively increased, I also have no weapons, parachute or grappling hook to use.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

I hope those holiday sales were worth it, because I'm pretty sure this franchise is dead now.

 

[Purkake4]

I wish I could get a refund

Same here.

Can you turn the leaderboards bullshit off now? Is the intro skippable?

 

[SilentRob]

Just got round to trying the new patch, and not only is the loading times massively increased, I also have no weapons, parachute or grappling hook to use.

I'm pretty sure I've read somewhere you have to wait up to 5 minutes now until those functions are loaded into the game world and you can use them? Somehow?

 

[danowat]

I'm pretty sure I've read somewhere you have to wait up to 5 minutes now until those functions are loaded into the game world and you can use them? Somehow?

Yup, you're right, I had to sit there for 5mins to be able to play after it was loaded.

The game is fucked, doesn't save either, save icon just sits there flashing all the time but not saving.

Wow this is a trainwreck.

This is absolutely awful. They just don't care about the game at all. Just going to pump out their DLC (if they can even finish releasing that) and call it a day. Atrocious.

 

[Dick Justice]

So the A team made Mad Max? Would explain why that game supposedly doesn't have much in the way of technical issues.

 

[danowat]

It wasn't great before the patch, but I found it playable at least, I know others didn't though.

It's pretty much unplayable now.

 

[Amagon]

Hows the performance for the PS4?

 

[vypek]

It wasn't great before the patch, but I found it playable at least, I know others didn't though.

It's pretty much unplayable now.

I ran into my fair share of issues playing before the patch but reading about the situation here I don't think I want to boot up again. I doubt I'll have better luck.

 

[chubigans]

Nope, this IS the A team. Utilizing a last gen proprietary engine that runs like crap on new consoles.

Edit: I was mistaken.

 

[S1kkZ]

Nope, this IS the A team.

wrong.

 

[Bliddo]

I sooooo regret buying this day one.
Good grief.
