Don't use the in-game V-sync option. Disable both the game's frame lock and the in-game V-sync, and force v-sync (or even better adaptive v-sync) with the driver.

Seems like internal V-sync has issues, could you force it externally? Yes, beaten of course.

Hmm alright I guess that messed with my download progress then. And the worst part is, I let my PS4 update for nothing since I forgot my PS+ subscription expired today and I can't renew it till tomorrow
I've got no DLC
I have a press copy and apparently that doesn't include the DLC. I've also got 4 bought copies sitting in my Steam inventory, but I can't activate those of course since I already own the game.
So basically, there is no way for me to get the DLC. Sega, help!
What would happen if someone gifted you a copy or you tried to redeem a key from a reseller like GMG? I'm wondering if it would add the other packages to your account as they would be on a different sub. Sounds like a JaseC question to be fair.

Update?

Fixed audio issues and DLC.

And just as I've read about Unity's ripoff microtransactions...justice can be killed, but it will never die!

They just put out a patch including "- Fixed DLC not installing correctly". Maybe that's the problem?
HOLY CRAP!
Someone from Sega (or Valve) must have heard me!
They added the DLC to the review package: https://steamdb.info/sub/41919/
AWESOME

Why is Asscreed listed two times?

Hey Sega, we beat Ass Creed. Time for more ports
I know how the DDS format works, I mean that the DDS files themselves are in an uncompressed and unencrypted state. It's common for games to store assets in container files which have their own layer of compression and/or encryption.
Ha! Joke's on Ubisoft, Unity doesn't even show on the store for me and VC is duking it out with Footy Manager for the top spot.
Damn dude sorry to hea...
Oh nevermind
It is a bit odd for ports to have DLC added as separate entities but a few have done it recent. Anyway great to see the problem solved itself!
More to do with the buggers not wanting to sell it to the UK atm but swings and roundabouts.

Any news for borderless windowed play?
edit: Apparently works fine with borderless gaming.

for all the praise steam gets, its support is fucking atrocious.No, my problem is unique to the press sub. It doesn't include the DLC:
https://steamdb.info/sub/41919/
but it still prevents me from buying the game which is the only way to get the DLC.
In short, I'm fucked. Or rather, at the mercy of Steam support, which is worse

Valkyria Chronicles has a really good artstyle, wow. I don't actually think I can distinguish still images from rendered models.
It's all very impressive.
And you were right about the quick saving time. I totally thought that was an exaggeration.
Unless the game autosaves at new chapters, I somehow lucked out and saved at the beginning of that chapter... very fortunate, either way.
The second time I got through it in ten minutes, and managed to get a neat sniper and VYSE, both of whom weren't there before. So I guess it worked out.
Fire Emblem runs through this game's veins. It's fantastic. The way it reconciles turn-based gameplay and real-time combat is phenomenal - it pulls it off without compromising either aspect. sogood.jpg
The only problem thus far has been some worky cover detection. Though because obstacles block shots anyways I suppose "taking cover" isn't necessary most of the time, even if it feels like it should be.
It's all very impressive.
I can't, so that's unlikely to be the issue. I'm running at 1080p, my monitor's native resolution. I'm not sure what caused it - though skipping through all of the dialog and cutscenes got me through it just fine, even while upgrading/recruiting as normal.
And you were right about the quick saving time. I totally thought that was an exaggeration.
Bingo. You know how it is.

Yeah, the recruit lists are randomized when you first open it.

Been almost completely divorced from games and games coverage this year (only 2014 games I've played are Wolfenstein and South Park), and didn't even know this was coming. I only learned about the port today after looking into buying a PSP solely for this game and 2... so awesome to hear the port is quite good, and that sales are looking awesome. Sega deserves major, major props.
Well just woke up and I see the game is ready to go. I am so happy right now as I still can't believe that Valkyria Chronicles was ported to the PC. It was always at the top of my wish list, but one I was 100 percent positive would never happen. I am also glad it is now number two on Steam and has a pretty good player count.

I'm not sure why you were looking for a PSP to play the first Valkyria, since it was formerly a PS3 exclusive.
Still hoping this sells enough to justify an up-port for 2 and 3. Could even bundle them together (since they share a few maps anyway .-.)

Just sold the Rare Selvaria background for Big Money Honey~
Nice! I actually never played the DLC, so I'm looking forward to that.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Finally got it working!
It's pretty much the same as I remember it being. Which is to say; great. I'm actually going to be playing this concurrently with VC3, to get the full Second Europan War experience.

Yep, I experienced both of these things too. Super smooth saving. And it's not a big deal when it crashes when you're exiting the game anyway.
I still haven't got Marina on my current playthrough.
Will I have to reverse engineer the save format just to get her?

You could always save right before a new batch of recruits are available, and if you don't see her in the list reload the save and try again.

Anyone else having an issue where the menus keep autoscrolling? It's the same shit that happens when you've got an axis active on a racing wheel or something while starting a game so the highlited menu option keeps changing. Only controller I have connected is a wireless 360 pad but the game does the same stuff with it on, off and completely disconnected. I have a flightstick and a raching wheel but the last time either of those was connected was to the PC was weeks and weeks ago but maybe their profiles or drivers or something are doing weird things?
Tried reinstalling, restarting, veryfying game cache, running as admin.
UPDATE EDIT: I had Vjoy installed because some part of the headtracking software I use for flight sims uses it for something. VC options config recognized it as a viable input option and automatically assigned everything to d-pad up. Unistalled it and it disappeared from the options and shit seems to be working.

May the exploits commence!
Personally, I find that I can play the game faster with KB/mouse than a gamepad. Both work well though - I'd say use kb/m at a desk and gamepad for a couch/large screen experience.
I might actually do that.

Rosie and Jaaaaaane~ I'm coming, ladies!
Ah, see, I'm oblivious enough to the series (and Sony exclusive properties) that I didn't get far enough in figuring out what systems to get to be able to play. I re-fired up Fire Emblem Awakening and got to trying to find good SRPG games, and came across VC.
In any case, this is super exciting, and I'm thrilled that I can spend $20 on what seems like a great port instead of having to buy old hardware to in addition software. It almost feels gratifying to support a game company for doing something so awesome... glad to see Sega getting their due (in positive consumer response and bottom line dollars). Hopefully this is the start of more stuff coming to the PC!

Does changing the difficulty level in skirmishes also changes your rewards ?

Sadly VC seems to crash when I have OBS open with GeDa running and it appears not to capture at all when I have monitor capture set instead so I'm going to have to downsample the old fashioned way.
Don't turn this into a waifu thread already, otherwise we might find ourselves in the community graveyard before our time
That said, I don't get this general fascination with Edy in a game that has both Marina and Jane. Where's my Marina DLC?
