Batman Arkham Knight - Official Thread!

I am now 70% complete, haven't finished the main story but have done quite a few of the side missions, although I'm not looking forward to trying to unlock the final part of the Riddler chain.

Performance for me has been fine, running at 4k with no AA or gameworks turned on the framerate has been a solid 60 regardless of what's going on.

The only glitch has been one point where the batmobile turned invisible for a few minutes.

At the start of the game it felt like the batmobile was being rammed down my throat every 2 seconds, and I have found that I am enjoying the game a lot more by not using it to get around the city, only when you actually HAVE to use it.

My only real complaint is that the boss battles so far seem a bit lacking, the great storyline makes up for it.
 
DLC strategy on this is a joke (leaving aside all PC DLC is still unreleased) all it appears to be is a constant stream of different characters on existing challenge maps & or new vehicles for a couple of new racing tracks......and thats about it for the amount they charged on the season pass this is such a rip-off :(

I bought the Arkham Knight Premium edition which includes the season pass for £22.98 from CD-Keys

I don't feel ripped off, but If I was a PS4 owner and had to pay £45+ for just the base game I might feel more aggrieved.

I gave up on the PC version and bought it on the PS4 for £33, finished it in a week, and sold it to a friend for £30 which was good going but that was a month or after release when the game was cheaper and was able to claw back more money.


I'd have been mightly pee'd off to pay £40+ for it.
 
I'd noticed mine topping out at the full 4Gb used. If I drop the textures to normal it sneaks in at around 3.5Gb.

Edit: I don't have the benefit of G-sync though, which makes the 980ti even more appealing.

I got the main game free with my GTX 980 Ti & paid full price for the season pass on Steam when it was discounted to only £32. Yet I still feel the season pass content is a little lacking value for money now its been revealed as just a few challenge maps/characters/vehicles for £70 odd full price on Steam thats silly :rolleyes:

Base game though is superb & looks amazing @4K. I'm glad more people are realising this its such a shame the game has been in this state since the patch in June (highly playable) but because of the Steam refund process withdrawn from sale still thats also silly the game is way more stable than many other games were on release or even after patching!

I suspect it something to do with how the streaming works. Now that the current console generation has 8Gb, I wonder if the game expects to store such a large amount in VRAM. With an SSD to stream from, it shouldn't really need so much on a PC, especially at 1080p.
