Running worse for me, menus are god awfully slow and the fights aren't playable.
I turned off super sampling and it was worse. lol I can usually tolerate random FPS drops but this is worse than the console version. Granted, my PC isn't great, but it can run a fair amount of games on high.
Oh god...looks like I'll be waiting till it is on sale then
Why does this image remind me of the game Claw so much?
That game... I need to play it!!!
I had to bump it down to 720p before it would run smooth. Higher resolutions really brings things to a halt. I'm running a GTX 560m on my laptop and it usually runs games just fine. it feels like it drops down below 20fps.
Aw Yeah, Snagged one of these for $20 and wasn't expecting that.
Have you tried deleting everything but the steam exe in the dir? (back everything up first to be sure tho
Tried both suggestions. Neither worked.
Naruto runs fine here on a 680 4gb ...
You found out how to remove the FPS lock?
But it's still at 30 FPS, correct? Or is there a fix already?
Gotta grab that next new shiny.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
This is great news! Thanks for the heads up.
I also have a very big problem with games like these not allowing you to customize your character
it just feels weird to use the lame prefab characters when I could unleash my creativity on a char creator and play barbie dolls with them
then I would be excited about that +2 scepter of malice
Just noticed the green notification has changed slightly. Come on client makeover.
The blueish tone in downloads is nice too.
14 more hours until my (new) motherboard arrives. It's been a fun week, all the best games coming out, tons of backlog and my motherboard decided to play its death animation. I spent half a day going through every possible shop in this Finnish city of some 150k people and not a single store is selling PC components anymore. You literally have to order online or drive 200 kilometers south if you want any PC component that goes inside the case. Then there's some 50+ stores selling all the peripherals that remain outside the case including keyboards, mouses, game controllers, monitors, headphones, memory sticks, you name it.
I didn't know the situation was so dire but now I know better. Also thanks for the Nuuvem/Lego Marvel Super Heroes tip.

Have you had these Steam issues for a while, or did it start when you installed your new OS? (I think you just installed a new OS...)

Same here.
Everyone who hasn't already, GET THIS GAME^
Great point n click with strong art design and a surprisingly interesting story.
Yeah, I haven't found many loot driven games that really let me go to town on creating a character. I think I'm just burned out on diablo esque games as a genre. I would much rather have a dozen or so truly unique armor sets and weapons than bazillions of cookie cutter "Adjective Noun of the Verb" garbage.
I've been running on this Windows install for 3 weeks now. This just started 2 hours ago.
Maybe this is related: this just started after I had to reboot because my PC crashed VIOLENTLY. I mean that sorta crash where there's a constant looping sound and you need to hold down the physical button on the PC in order to turn it off.
Eh, fuck it. Heading to bed now. Maybe this'll be resolved once I get up. I faintly remember one case where nobody from Germany could log-in for a day or so.
yup, it's the difference between dark souls' and diablo's loot paradigms, and it really surprises me how some people do prefer a generic item with bigger numbers as a reward for grinding rather than an unique item as a reward for exploration/achievement :/

By jove!
I fired up The 39 Steps earlier, fully intending only to play a chapter or two to help clear a Dead Space induced headache, before retiring to bed for the night. Yet I found myself so utterly gripped by the story that I ended up blazing through the last three quarters of it in one session. Talk about a real page turner!
The perceptive amongst you will remember that I was bemoaning heavily story driven games earlier. Well this isn't a contradiction at all! Honest. The 39 Steps is not a game at all frankly. Oh yes there are some elementary point and click style elements but they're a sham to be frank. Essentially it is a jolly good jape, stylishly told with a bit of interactive window dressing. If you have four hours or so to kill and like a good yarn then I heartily recommend it.
My problem with heavily story driven games is that they invariably spoil the actual interactive, gameplay element of games. If I want to play a game I want to play a bloody game, not sit passively watching hugely expensive cut scenes twiddling my thumbs, irritated that I'm being stopped from playing and being force fed a story I don't care about starring characters I don't care about. If I'm playing a game that I know is basically just a story like Dear Esther or The 39 Steps with no real gameplay then I'm getting what I signed up for and am quite happy with that. Very few games I've played have managed that fine marriage of gameplay and story without getting on my nerves, let alone being a story that I have enjoyed. Even the intro to Super Metroid gets on my tits FFS!
tl;dr: four hours to spare, fancy a good yarn? The 39 Steps cheap or in a bundle? Get it.

So Naruto is a shit port? Goddammit Namco, when will you learn?
Hope Unslaved is better...

Is going to be really hard to make it worse than console (framerate wise).
Sure, but you did directly follow that with, "Maybe the new CEO is not adverse as selling from wherever...", so naturally I assumed that you thought he'd been quickly replaced and his replacement was responsible for EA's rather significant push into outer-Origin deals.
Ah, I didn't even notice the release date, haha. That'd certainly explain it.
Did you eat the cost of the RU DDE or are you going to resell it as I suggested?
So by the very definition of the word, it doesn't work fine.
I'm but a simple purveyor of Saoirse Ronan avatars.
The lack of an early bird discount is rather annoying. I'll pick it up after the Halloween Sale.
Yeah, gifting is disabled. It's only a few bucks cheaper, anyway.
Good Guy Warner.
Just kidding. I still hate you.
Man, that sob story looks like viral BS.
People living in a university for months without anyone noticing?
What kind of bank loans homeless bums without a cent to their name 200k?
Also they kickstarted for 40k, got 65k and still needed five times that?
Someone really failed to judge budget/time expenses there.

Steam Beta Update:
Nice.
Nice.
I played a bit yesterday with two friends, it seems like the kind of game that would only be fun in Co-Op. The first few levels are mind numbingly easy, but then it surprisingly becomes a decent little puzzle game as long as you've got friends to help you solve stuff and move the little spirit dude around. The combat skills are pretty varied too and there are a ton to unlock across the four classes, which you can switch to at any time.

I sucked six dicks to get this tag.
How is it running worst for you when my friend is running it on his laptop with an Intel Hd Graphics 4400 with no problems at full 30fps?
I'm really tired of having all these coupons:
Anyone want any of these? Macatouille is my user name.

That's strange, I've been playing Batman for an hour and got an achievement but there's no sign of the game in my profile. No playtime, not even an entry in my list of games. Anyone else with that problem?
I don't think so. Well, I haven't figured out how if you can.

If I knew, I wouldn't be complaining about it. How odd!
