Steady 60fps until i hopped into the Batmobile and it started revving up dust, 10fps then until the dust went away. So i disabled the Nvidia dust thing and now it's about 50fps in the Batmobile.

How do i change Batmans appearance? I unlocked "Anime Batman" and i wanna see how horrible this is. Also, can you get a Batmobile that doesn't look like a Decepticon?

Do we eventually unlock the grapple move that lets you reverse direction? I'm after ace chemicals right now.

Also, is there a way to avoid the thugs that grab you and force you to mash the button to break free? Not the "instantly KO" guys, the other ones.

Enjoying AK, though it is VERY different from previous entries. Fanservice is still mighty awesome though.

For quick turns I just use tank mode.

The guys that grab you can be dodge-jumped over.

I think it's unlocked by default, just hold back while grappling.

the goons that grab you dont have a counter icon but they telegraph themselves by opening up their arms for a big hug, so you can just evade over them when you see that. they always come from behind so just watch your back

He runs Iron Galaxy, so by relation, yes. He may not have been in charge of the project though. But he's visible and I'm sure he's been getting tweets all day.

Edit: Oh man, I wonder if his phone number is still working because John Vignocchi (a Disney video game exec) tweeted out his phone number as a prank during E3.

So steam does no questions asked refunds, but then gmg did a last minute 40% off. I can see why. Seems kind of shady considering none of the reviewers got a pc review copy.

I am so mad that I bought this game on Green Man. I shouldn't have to turn my settings down to 1366x768 resolution to make the Batmobile segments playable on my GTX 680. At least a Steam purchase would allow me to return it and pick it up on PS4.

Also you couldn't unlock all the fast travel points originally, because one of them was in a room that you couldn't enter. You could open the vent to enter, but the game didn't recognize it as a grappel point, so you just couldn't get to the room you needed to get to.

pause and restart your download until it gives you a good time. sometimes psn sticks you on a foreign server with lovely connection instead of the closest one.

That one was bugged piracy protection.

Edit: oh man, the team up combat sections of the game are brilliant. I'm not sure if it would work with 2 people but the ai seems to handle itself ok and the swapping/combo moves are amazingly seamless.

This is some impressive incompetence right here. I'm guessing that as the release date came closer and the PC version was still garbage they started stripping out basic graphics features to try and compensate and ended up with a broken mess anyway.

Talking about the ingame install, which was stuck at five hours. After deleting and reinstalling it, it was now at a more manageable 30 minutes, now counting down from 6. And I power cycled my modem and downloading the patch went from 99+ hours to 23 minutes.
What a loving mess of a launch this has been

It looks like I'm getting rain textures, rarely, but the DOF is messed up most of the time. While I'm getting fine performance I may not play this too much more right now and stick with DMC4 SE.

I'd be pissed off if this wasn't free with my 970, as it is it's just kind of funny to see it as a "flagship" game of sorts to show off the hardware and it's missing features the consoles have and doesn't run all that great.

Maybe they're waiting for Windows 10 so they can show off how much DX12 speeds up Batman!

Yeah, I have a hard time getting really personally upset at the whole thing because I didn't pay for the game but I have a lot of empathy for people who did. It's a bummer to see something as anticipated as Arkham Knight land with the force of a wet fart on PC.

I have those rain textures on the PC version, its probably hidden in one of the Gameworks options cause I have it running with everything on/maxed.

Soon as I figured out I had to turn off the DS4 Wrapper and connect it with a cable instead of bluetooth to get my dual shock to work everything has been smooth sailing since (granted that took about forever to fix).

edit: Okay I went back and checked, I only get the rain textures on the cape and only when I'm gliding

Thankfully I have other stuff to play right now while waiting for them to hopefully fix the PC issues, what with the 12x experience boost on The Old Republic and reinstalling Fallout 2 after the E3 hype.

But no doubt, I'd be pretty upset with this product if it didn't come free along with Witcher 3 when I upgraded my video card.
