Arkham Knight PC horribad, sales suspended

Then why did you say G-Sync and your control panel setting would fix the 30 FPS cap on Arkham Knight? You're playing games that support 144hz refresh rates and uncapped framerates if you haven't encountered a game it didn't work on. Arkham Knight by default is capped at 30 FPS so just running the game without editing the ini won't do anything; you'll be playing at 30 FPS no matter what.

@princeofshapeir: Because it's a newer gd game for 1. Not an old game like you're playing.

If you can't read that the NV control panel overrides application limited FPS... Then there is no hope in talking to a gd wall.

Fortunately I have never been interested in this game...but hey, maybe I'll pick it up for $15 in December.

m3dude is right, you bought a piece of technology and have no fucking clue what it does. Congrats.

@princeofshapeir: Says the other moron that can't read either. Another clueless noob.

Jesus christ this type of pathetic display is way too common among hermits. The highest available option is for games that support high refresh rates but dont expose an option to pick your refresh rate. In those cases the game will cap at whatever your desktop is set to. And since nvidia gpus dont power down when desktop refresh rate is above 120 you can see why that option exists. It does nothing to override fps caps in games. God what a joke.

Devs treating PC gamers like 3rd class citizen as always, no surprise here lol.

@m3dude1: TOTAL moron alert...

I cant wait to get home, download the game and patch, see how badly the game is done, take some videos of it for a laugh. I've got so many other games to play right now that this doesn't annoy me at all, it will annoy me if they don't fix it by the time I want to play. I do think the game should get slammed on PC reviews for this though. Let people know that if they buy the game with the intention of playing it now, then that game is broken to hell and back.

Getting the goty edition on PS4, no worries here.

Got the game maxed out on SLI 970.

Textures look wonky.

@Truth_Hurts_U: Is that at 1080p?

@deathbeam: Yep, game eats my PC.

So much rain and motion blur.

SLI doesn't work, the game has this hideous film grain filter you can't remove in-game (hope someone figures out which ini setting gets rid of it), and texture quality is capped at "Normal." Day 1 patch is desperately needed. And the game isn't looking as good as it did in previous trailers.

@Truth_Hurts_U: I don't know whether it does or not....but I've found many ppl on this board talk a big game....but really don't know as much as they lead on.

@princeofshapeir: yeah I'm skipping this on PC. Will wait for a PS4 version.

Only real issue I have is the Batmobile makes my FPS tank... SO MANY EFFECTS. Smoke, rain, physics, explosions and speed.

Freaken nuts, feel like I'm almost playing the Samaritan demo.

That's a shame... Luckily I'm getting the "inferior" console version.

Getting it in a few. Excited.

Dayum.

The framerate cap is dumb, but luckily that's an easy fix.

The game is missing so many options that you would expect a PC game to have, shit is scust. Otherwise I had a good time delivering Buttman justice. So I'll keep playing, because 60 faps is the only thing important to me.

Sidenote though: and yeah whatever lolvideogamestories and all, but the script in this game is fucking TERRIBLE. Oh my god I've been laughing at how corny it is.

Maybe I am the lucky one, but performance for me is being pretty good. After having unlocked 60 fps in the configuration ini file, I am having stable 60 fps on default settings and all nvidia's special effects on. Yes, there are very a few PC options. For example, it's pretty funny but the maximum texture quality is...normal. Yep, you've heard right, not ultra, not high, but just between low and normal. I must say the game looks bloody awful at 1080p and normal textures. That's why I set the game resolution at 2k, and you know what, am getting 47fps average, which still preferable than those blurry normal textures at 1080p. At 2k, those normal textures look pretty good. I'd rather sacrifice fps a little, having it at 45-60, which is really good considering it's 2k resolution I am running the game at. Besides, the game looks really good in motion: there are actual civilian vehicles on the roads, and Gotham feels like a real city, character face expressions are really good and animations are top notch.

Here, compare 1080p vs 1440p

@Blabadon: game will get a day one patch and mods, if a company like sony has a deal they usually have to make that version the best on release day but after a day or two the patch comes out and makes it the inferior version

this is how every multiplat has worked if xbone has the deal ps4/pc framerates are shit on day one if ps4 has the deal pc looks like shit

then theres a patch an everything goes away have you not notice this blabadon do you know how these deals work these days?

Strange, downloaded it last night expecting it to be a hog to run but was whipping around at 60 fps with a few Nvidia features active and all other settings on max.

Yeah just tested the start, unlocked the 60fps in the ini, frames are really stable while standing still, even when moving the camera around, as soon as you start to glide the frames skip down to 32, then a split second later to 42, then to 60 again, then down to 51, then back to 60 when you get to a platform, talk about unstable. I lowered every setting as far as they will go, turned off AA even, kept the game at 1080p, did the same test with the same area, got the exact same results every time. Good thing I've got tonnes of games to play so I can put this on the back burner until it gets fixed. Game deserves a 4/10 at this moment on pc.

Yep. disabling motion blur doesn't wok for me either - the game crashes.

Holy Christ this is bad. It's unplayable. I'm having stuttering so bad. 2 seconds of playing, it'll pause (and I'm not exaggerating for 4-5 seconds), then resume. Then 3 seconds later, another 2 seconds. The graphics are not near the trailer. Barely any options.

I'm refunding on Steam and getting the PS4 version. Rocksteady will get none of my money for the PC version. I've no problem with the game itself (I really like the 'mobile actually) and loved what I played so far, but these performance issues are inexcusable. You cannot release a game in this state.

Unbelievable.

You have to stick with the 30 FPS limit if you want to even think of having a smooth framerate. I get massive stuttering if I move the framerate up to 60.

This is all with a 970. I feel sorry for anyone playing with lesser hardware.

Yeah, don't disable motion blur. Just apply the FPS fix. Seems to only crash when you try disabling motion blur.

Pretty fun game so far. They for sure have to optimize heavy action scenes. I know my SLI isn't being used well either... Because when it is it runs WARM... Air coming out of my PC is cool when playing this game.

hermits are beyond help. they lack any ability to learn. i just spelled it out as simply as possible and they still dont understand how gsync works. incredibly sad.

Fucking Rocksteady. I trusted you.

Many are indicating that the port was done by Iron Galaxy.

Haha, damn.

Yo I'm starting to think the Dave Lang sucks and is incompetent thing isn't a joke from Giantbomb, they might actually be serious all the time.

At this point, I'm sure they are. That, or this is payback for John tweeting his phone number. PC gamers get punished. Lang style.

They forgot to put in online lobbies for Divekick so you could have more than 2 people playing that game at a time. Nah man, it's incompetence.

Really? That's fucked.

@getgcs: its only for gsync

@Truth_Hurts_U: go play that NFS that is limited to 30Fps. See if your magical G-sync monitor can make it go above 30.

hes already replied to this type of statement with "welll durrr durrr it doesnt work in all games durr durr." he doesnt understand how gsync works at the most basic level, much less what the various options in nvidias control panel even do.
