It just feels so good. The gameplay balance just clicks and you feel tension that you don't feel in most games.
I actually sent my sound card back yesterday as it was blocking air flow to one of my GPUs. Going to get the PCI-e version instead, but have to use onboard for the time being.
By surround sound headphones, you don't mean those that have 6 or 7 speakers in each cup right?

I will say playing this game again is reminding me of how excited I am for Evil Within.

Go to save/load options, hit "reset game" or whatever it's called and that will take you to the title screen. You can select "quit game" there.
I believe this is mapped to Page Up and Page Down by default.

i know nothing about sound or headphones but they cover my ear and it sounds like i'm being surrounded so yes they're surround sound headphones and no one can tell me otherwise!! sound is like the one single aspect of gaming/television that i know next to nothing about. if it sounds good, i'm good haha

Does the game support surround sound, or at least Pro logic II?

There are a couple of methods of getting surround sound.
1. The most common method by far is virtual surround sound. It's the most common because it is far and away the best. You see, humans have two ears, and the reason we can tell what direction something is coming from is because the shape of our ears distorts the sound when it's coming from behind us. At this point, we know how that distortion works, so now we can simply process the sound, apply that distortion, and your ears will recognize the sound with its distortion, and it will sound as though it is behind you. Cool shit.
2. The second method, is stupid as shit. Essentially, instead of having one speaker in each cup, which allows you to have GOOD speakers in each cup, they try and fit like 3 or 4 in each cup. This is terrible for several reasons: 1) Since they are all RIGHT ON TOP OF YOUR EAR, the shape of your ear doesn't get a chance to distort it. It works a little bit, but not well. And 2) Now instead of having 1 good speaker, you have 4 shitty ones. So it sounds like crap.
And there you go, all you needed to know about surround sound headphones.

Is anyone playing this with a DualShock 4? The button config doesn't work, the Xinput wrapper causes a whole buncha goofiness since the game recognizes it as two controllers simultaneously, and editing the cfg file is giving me a headache. There are about 4 controller profiles under here and I have no clue what button's what or what these functions even do.
If anyone has a DS4-friendly CFG file I'd greatly appreciate if they could please share it.

Oh-la.
And figured out how to not make almost everything white, though still using simple colors. Will mess around with more later, but for now, a blue world:
Generally 'Surround Sound Headphones' are the sound worlds marketing gimmick. Great way to charge more and give you much, much less.
There aren't any audio options in the game at all.

For those that are curious, I am able to run this on my Surface Pro 2 at 720 and 30 FPS. No lengthy impressions, as I am currently at work.

Well for consoles that don't normally have virtualized options like that it's sort of nice to have, but for the most part it's an entirely software function.
did not expect to learn things in this thread. thanks guys! fairly certain the headphones i have are the shitty ones then. i got them for like $35 at best buy. might look into some nice ones now!
Best Buy never has good headphones.
they don't really ever have good anything. i've learned a lot about best buy since i bought them.

How do the new textures compare to the HD packs playing on Dolphin? What I've done there is replaced only the character/HUD/objects textures since I feel too much atmosphere is lost in terms of grime/dirt by replacing trees, building textures etc. Is there any way to pick and choose like that here? 60fps remains the biggest draw for me regardless, will cop in a few days, hopefully after some of these issues (v-sync) have been addressed.

I was just going to ask about messing with the config file as well, though my DS4 is working fine with inputwrapper so far. I'm using v1.1 Beta 3 and I'm wired via USB, not using bluetooth.
I edited the config file to swap the L2 and R2 with L1 and R1 but it had no effect. I might have edited the wrong thing I guess. There are 3 Xinput sections in the .ini file and I assumed those correspond to controller schemes 1, 2, and 3. Each seems to have the inputs for a 360 pad and a generic pad. It's all very confusing so I'll probably just have to get used to using the triggers instead of L1 and R1 like I'm used to.

I did some messing around with the post processing effects and got a couple of cool looking black and white settings. Here are some pics:
The gradient files are below if you wanna try them out. Just download the picture and rename it to gradient1, gradient2, or gradient3. Then replace the respective files in the BIO4/gradients folder (after backing up the original) and set the post processing to the same number. They fuck with the HUD though and visibility is messed up in a few places so it's probably not a good idea for first time users, but for vets like me who want a challenge, this could be a cool way to play through the game again.
This looks damn artsy.

Oh shit just got my first foil card. What's the price curve on these? Should I sell it ASAP or wait a bit?

Well, I'm able to run it at constant 60fps/1080p save for when I look at the fire in the center of the village. Granted I haven't played very far yet, I can only imagine the problem is worse during some of the later fights with fire effects all over the place. Game is perfect at 30fps though. Considering I'm running a fairly old computer I'd say it's a pretty well optimized port, not DMC4 good of course, but good nonetheless. Though perhaps this is a sign it's time to upgrade soon.

I just arrived to the castle, I can safely say that it was worth the weight. The game is still as good as when I played it on my PS2.
It truly is a classic.

I was wondering if something like this would happen. The way the game is balanced, reloads for each weapon are supposed to have a set number of animation frames (that's what the number represents when you upgrade reload), and I was wondering how they'd reconcile this with the move to 60hz. Would it have been possible for them to just double the number of animation frames?

This game completely passed my by when on the original launch.
With all the positive light around it I may just have to pick it up.

The thing is, it seems like it's just the rifle reload.
Very pleased.
They had PC blog posts on Capcom-Unity discussing God Hand and Okami as well. They still have a long hill to climb with GFWL games though.
Sell now, prices only degrade as time goes on.
Does anyone know how to edit the sound levels? I feel like a lot of sound effects are more subdued in terms of overall loudness. I pretty sure hearing Leon's footsteps, especially on wood, was much more audible in the original versions.

This PC versus PS2 vid seems to have the same effect. If you listen for leon's footsteps and the ambient noise of the fire, they are much louder in the PS2 version versus the current PC version.

Same here. I'm using the 1.3 beta and I can play fine for about ten seconds before it starts freaking out. Would love a fix because it's so hard to go back to the 360 controller after using the DS4.
Bummer. The port seems lazier than I had hoped.
Rebinding Quick turnaround to something like EXTRA MOUSE BUTTON 1 doesn't work. It recognizes the mouse button, but then won't work in-game.
I also don't understand why they couldn't implement mouselook to cause a change in walking direction? Doing mouse AIM and then looking around WILL cause a change in walking direction, so why can't mouse look do the same? Feels inconsistent.
Also don't like the sluggish mouse. It is too slow in look mode, but when sensitivity is increased to compensate for that it is too fast in aim mode.
All little input things that add up to a subpar first impression.

Actually, the shitty method is the more expensive one by far, because they essentially have to stick like 5 pairs of headphones duct taped together.
As an addendum, with PC games themselves can do the surround effect on their own, as can sound cards. I've got a pair of non-surround Sennheisers that enjoy surround sound.
On the PC end, it's much better to get a sound card that can do the effect, and then pair your favorite headphones to them, than to try and get "Surround sound" headphones. Turtle Beach/Astro/all those other kinds of surround sound headphones are usually just regular headphones soldered onto a converter that mixes that all together.

Those missing GameCube Shaders really hurts when looking at El Gigante in those shots. For me the UltimateHD Edition will never be the ultimate version due to that.
Hope that some hero modders will do what Capcom don't !

You can also use the "Enhance the application setting" (in-game MSAA) with TrSSAA, that's what I do.
To those who are playing with the gradients, what effect does this gradient have?
I had no idea about this, awesome to hear!
If you're on laptops, this could be an issue with "PalmCheck" in your mouse settings.
