It's finally here.



Looking forward to seeing how the saga ends. But I probably won't be playing till this weekend, got some other stuff to do.

I have all the other games but I'm holding off on AK to see how the reviews come out. Right now the metacritic user reviews are raping the PC version with an iron pike.

Asylum and City were excellent but Origins was lacking in my opinion.

PC players got shafted on this one. Holy shit, the PC community is *pissed.*



And rightfully so. I almost preordered this on Steam, but got it for XB1 instead.

I was thinking about getting this for xb1. How'd PC players get bent over? What happened?

The game just flat out doesn't work. Stutter, frame rate drops, crashes.

That sounds suspect.  Did Microsoft or Sony get any kind of special version?  I can easily see MS getting some kind of special on the release on XBox and then requesting they make the PC version crappy at launch.  Steam on the PC is hurting Microsoft and they hate it.

Word on the street is that Rocksteady only made the console versions and they subbed out the PC port to someone else, who totally Time Gate Studiosed it up.

What's weird is that this should have been the easiest game of the series to port, since all the platforms now run on x86 architecture.

I got it free too and I played for an hour or so today. Running pretty smooth for me. Sounds like most (not all) of the problems are with AMD cards. Had a lot of

problems with my AMD 280 playing the Witcher 3 so I switched to a GTX 970 that cured everything. A lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth on the Steam Forum though.

Anyone care to say again how us console gamers are inferior?

That said I haven't played the game on anything until I get a PS4 and perhaps not even then as the game just looks wrong.... I like action but it seems so Rambo'ish from the trailers & that's not what Batman should be.

Wow, according to Green Man Gaming Warner has pulled Arkham Knight PC from sale until they iron out the problems.

That is kind of unprecedented...

That's good to hear at least, they're making an effort.

I just started up the first in the Arkham series on my PC last night, mainly because of this thread I felt I needed to catch up on it, owned the game for a few years never started it.  Really impressed, so it's good to know all the future PC ports will be as good or better than the first one I'm playing through.

I wonder what is transpiring behind closed doors at Warner and Rocksteady right now.

100 PC Customers to Warner: FIX YOUR SHIT.

Warner to Rocksteady: We just got our balls handed to us by 200 customers, FIX YOUR SHIT.

Rocksteady to their PC port subcontractor: We just got our balls handed to us by Warner, apparently 300 customers are losing their shit. FIX YOUR SHIT.

Gearbox on conference call with Rocksteady: Its all cool man, we've been here before... so your subcontractor screwed the pooch... no big deal, just cash the checks, let them take all the blame, ride that shit out and it will all go away...

Time Gate on conference call with PC port subcontractor: Are you guys hiring?

PCport can declare Ch.11 to avoid any contractual liability, deposit their checks, & vanish like the wind, TimeGate-like.
