Just FYI that things are running fine here. Locked 60fps on a 980.

No doubt there's lots of issues out there, but want to give those who are locked in a glimmer of hope..

I'm playing and loving the game at 1080/60 as well. Really glad I made the jump from a 970 a few weeks ago - I just knew that 3.5GB RAM thing was going to be problematic for future games.

Is ejecting out from the Batmobile into a glide an ability that you need to acquire? Says its AA in the control map but that doesn't do anything.

Yes. Like the second or third story mission.

 

[luffeN]

Do I need to enable anything for the special nvidia AK drivers or is it automatic?

 

[x3sphere]

I will say this, at the capped 30 fps this game feels amazingly smooth, the controls are very responsive. It's probably the smoothest feeling 30 fps game I've played recently, it's pretty clear the game is optimized heavily for this framerate.

So far no more crashes since the one while chatting with Commissioner Gordon, crossing my fingers.

Yeah runs really nicely on a 980 Ti @ 4K, 30 FPS capped.

 

[RickyRozay]

Sooo.. being as I didn't purchase this version yet is it safe to say that I should go with the ps4 version?

 

[XANDER CAGE]

This game looks so smeary and muddy on my PC, I'm assuming it has a really poor FXAA solution or something. I'm sure the wonky texture streaming/loading isn't helping, but it doesn't look good. I'm watching some high quality videos of the PS4 version and it looks much sharper, smoother, and better.

 

[Hatty]

It's too bad I was tempted by the GMG deal now I'm stuck with a broken game. At least I have DMC4: SE here to take the pain away. Everyone that can get a refund should do it, a port this bad has no place in 2015

How? I have a 980 and I get drops to 35 constantly

 

[Windom Earle]

A Batman game with a shitty PC port? I don't know what I expected. :/

The OP title wasn't kidding, wtf are those settings.

It also runs bad? Have yet to start the game beyond the benchmark.

Yup, playing it capped at 30 fps has been fine for me. Normally of course I would prefer a locked 60 but it doesn't seem as necessary here. Might try to use DSR to go up to 1440p and see if I can keep a locked 30.

As an experiment disable the AA in the menu and see if it sharpens up.

Then you can force other kinds of AA on the driver level, or just go with downsampling.

 

[abuC]

Try what viveks did:


I'm on windows 10 and tried this but still didn't work

Thanks, that did the trick for me, I have a dedicated GPU for physx but I had to switch over to my main for it to work.

Meh... Really that bad? Would love to see a comparison. Now I'm thinking about picking it up for my Xbox One. Is the X1 version comparable to the Ps4 version on terms of performance?

 

[gotoadgo]

Is anyone having issues with the game not detecting their PS4 controller over bluetooth?

 

[Impulsor]

Seriously, the fact that Iron Galaxy did this port should be put into the thread title as a warning to anyone thinking of getting the PC SKU over either console.

Yeah. I agree with that.

AS I said, I can't get a refund because I got the game free with my GPU, but I've been really hyped for this and I really want to play it so I'll just pick up my ps4 preorder this evening and stop worrying.

 

[Killing_Joke]

One of 2 games i bought a legit rig for and this shit happens. Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones when i get to play. But 30fps cap and normal textures sounds awful. Can't believe WB didn't put this game in good hands.

 

[leng jai]

Can a 970 even run this game at 30fps locked at 1080p with all settings maxed?

I noticed this as well, it looks like the game has some kind of "fog screen" between the screen and the game, if you know what I mean.

It looks dirty and washed out? Kinda too clear, I fiddled with gamma settings but didn't really fix anything.

Its like playing the game on a poorly calibrated tv.

My 770 is doing just about that, cant see why a 970 would have problems

 

[AcceptableGhost]

Who did the PC version of this game? Is that information anywhere?

 

[dex3108]

Iron Galaxy Studios

Its been stated a bunch in this thread that Iron Galaxy did the port

 

[FF Seraphim]

Iron Galaxy Studios

I think this needs to be added to the OP or the Thread title.

 

[ktroopa]

Can a 970 even run this game at 30fps locked at 1080p with all settings maxed?

I dont think so Nope, im seeing batmobile drops to 26fps when im burning smoke. Thats with shit flying everywhere n destruction too. I expect a patch is coming for sure.

Whats clear is that the devs intended the 30fps lock for that cinematic look :/ its The Evil Within all over again. At least we dont have massive black bars..

+1. Please add this to the title/OP.

 

[AcceptableGhost]

I saw the name thrown around in the thread, wasn't sure if it was confirmed. Definitely doesn't bode well for the Killer Instinct PC version!

 

[bar mitzvah]

How is everyone checking their in-game fps. FRAPS doesn't work in this for some reason.

 

[Klossen]

Let's put Steam's refund system to good use and further discourage publishers from pulling cheap stunts like this in the future. Don't allow games to be launched broken only to have their pitiful PR department beg you to wait for patches.

 

[Cave Johnson]

Looks like Batman has now a reputation of taking down PC's.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

(excuse the imgur compression, but given how muddy the game already looks for me it didn't exacerbate the issue much)

It's definitely FXAA. I'll see how forcing driver AA or downsampling goes, but given how bad my performance is already I'm really not gonna hold my breath.

I would surprised if even majority of people on GAF purchased the game on Steam considering the good deals from Nuuvem and GMG.

The game is getting hammered on Steam. "Mostly Negative" reviews. 959 reviews of which only 37% are positive.

 

[Windom Earle]

No.

Benchmark runs fine for me, but I guess in-game performance is ass?

Glad I bought an Nvidia key for 5€ from a friend, lol

 

[Valravn]

is that from the benchmark or actually palying. Cause I have titan x sli and i didnt have anything near those frames. What driver ?

From the benchmark. Not reliable?

If they patch all these issues out of the game, those giving bad reviews probably won't go back and revise their review either

It will be forever stamped with that negative tag...but that's what happens when you release broken games.

23 pages since I slept

What a shit show this port is. It's the worst I've seen in years. If I bought it through steam I'd be getting a refund asap.

 

[FlyinJ]

Benchmark has nothing to do with how the actual game performs.

Brilliant eh? Warner really knocked it out of the park.

Suddenly the heavy promotions on GMG just days before launch makes more sense now.

 

[Valravn]

I got the game for free by buying a 980, but if i actually payed for it i would be pretty mad.

 

[FF Seraphim]

Yep I should of known paying $56 for the Premium Edition of the game was too good of a deal.
But god damn...

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

They didn't know anything more than that it was heavily anticipated.

 

[Dahaka]

Last Warner game I bought for more than 5 bucks. I SWEAR.

 

[Evo X]

It's not only the performance issues that are bugging me, but the graphics themselves.

Maxed out at 1440P on my Titan X, it doesn't look as good as the E3 demos they've been showing off the past few years.

Maybe I am remembering wrong, but those demos blew me away, whereas playing it myself, it doesn't actually seem like that much of an improvement from Arkham City.

Anyone feel this way or am I crazy?

 

[FlyinJ]

It does seem weird... but to what end! Who benefits from selling the game at half off? I'm pretty sure GMG bought these keys for more than what they are selling them for, and they are taking a loss to get more traffic on their site.

 

[golem]

Hmm seems to run alright on my Titan X, not really noticing any stuttering. Watching that VRAM usage crest 7gb though

Hopefully they get SLI working

 

[RulkezX]

Not the thread I wanted to wake up to.

The textures are low res. The game has like this piss filter over anything. I personally think AA/AC look better in terms of visual clarity. Whatever this game is doing in terms of being demanding, it anit worth it. It just isn't that good looking. The texture work is awful in many places in AK.

 

[B-Dubs]

FYI do not turn off AA, I did to see if I could improve performance and I fell through the world while driving.

I was getting some stutters during combat, usually when I countered or the camera swung around fast, and it was a little worse while driving. Gliding, for some reason, was perfectly fine. If it wasn't for the car section the game would be perfectly playable, not good in the slightest, but I could play it.

 

[leng jai]

Well the deal actually existed a month or so before launch.

 

[CryptiK]

What a piece of shit. Got a "Fatal Error" closed the game and had to restart my computer because it crashed the desktop. Why the fuck wasn't this lead platform on PC when its on the Unreal Engine.

 

[CUD]

So the FPS cap edit is working fine but when I try to remove the motion blur or edit anything else the game crashes before it makes it to the main menu. Is anyone actually able to disable motion blur or is this just me?
