Batman Arkham Knight - Official Thread!

Well this game is officially broken for me now, can't play it at all because of the above crash, didn't happen as much but since last patch, it is happening within 5 minutes.

Tried verifying the game integrity but nope...

Shame as I was going to pick up the season pass when it dropped in price but no point now :(
 
Weirdly enough, the patch has fixed my GPU usage drop problems and the framerate didn't tank anymore last time I checked. Too bad I've already uninstalled the game as I was sick of all the issues I had with it :p
 
Yeah the game feels a bit smoother overall, less hitching but I rather have that than these crashes :(

Googling around, it seems like quite a few people are now getting these crashes a lot more often since the patch.
 
My game didn't crash even once, be it before or after all the patching. It seems to perform completely randomly for different people. Seriously, what a mess.
 
new patch out !

UPDATE (5:10pm Pacific): The November DLC is now available for everyone.
 
I think it's becoming an increasing trend that big releases are full of bugs. Just seen something online that say JC3 is very buggy too.

Seemed to start with the next gen consoles. Just the sheer amount of data involved goes beyond what people can fault find.

Yeah no doubt games on release day are a lot buggier than they used to be but still, this has been out for several months now with quite a few patches and still has big problems :o Even more puzzling is how on earth rocksteady can't seem to fix it when their previous games have been pretty well optimised for the PC.

True enough again, it seems to be all these "next gen" titles that are having bad bugs on release day and here we thought that having fewer platforms would be better for games in general, less platforms to deal with and being able to push the graphics etc. further, give me stability and good performance over better graphics any day of the week.
 
as much as im enjoying this game and yet to have performance issues, its a shame they didn't put as much effort into the riddler trophies as arkham city, most are just hidden around with no challenge to acquire them.
