Batman™: Arkham Knight Performance

Then why with Nvidia's name on a game mean its their fault ? :rolleyes:

Your logic subroutine on your trolling chip seems to malfunctioning, you should get that looked it.

So t's only their name used it this title, no invested money or technology?

Anyhow, games been pulled, may as well close this thread of now.
 
Shanks, there are effects missing from the game that are present on other platforms. The game performs poorly with or without GW libraries. It's not up to NVIDIA to make sure the game is released on time and in a working state. Not sure why you'd even think that.

I thought Nvidia is supposed to work very closely with partner devs? They wouldn't have all these issue on Nvidia hardware if this was the case.

Only AMD users would be having issues.

They do, and I'm pretty sure if this is the first GW title created by rocksteady they would have had the support they needed. Instead of Rocksteady actually doing the port, they got some cowboy outfit to do it.

No its not their name only. The libraries used by the developer to incorporate GW is done by the developer. GW is not broken itself. NVidia support developers all the way.

You are talking like the only thing broken in this game is GW, you have obviously not played it, just jumped on the trollwagon.
 
Yes. It's not Nvidia fault per se. The Game Works libraries themselves work as other studios are able to implement them (CD Project), it's the devs shoddy implementation thats at fault.

However, Nvidia must have had game code to play with during the development of the driver, so they would have seen the terrible performance and I suppose could have offered assistance.

This just shows that the PC version of the game wasn't a high priority.

What I would like to see form Nvidia is something similar to what Microsoft did, with Games for Windows.

For a game to get the TWIMTBP branding, it should meet certain standards on the PC. That is at the end of the day Nvidia's main market when they sell GPUs.

Am not saying it is down to Nvidia..
all I saying is why does it run so poorly on Nvidia hardware if they ment to work with the devs? wouldn't all this performance issue be seen while working on the game??
 
Anyone who has played this will know GW is not even the biggest problem. The graphics are a joke. Batmans face when it shows it close up has zero points of articulation and he looks like a south park character :p

Arkham city looked better than this thing and they have a hell of a lot of work to do to make it respectable
 
How was such a bad job done? I mean you could run the previous Batman games on a potato and doesn't this use the same engine? It certainly looks like it does, just with a few more effects here and there.

If you compare the visuals and performance of this to the Witcher 3 it is an absolute joke, and the Witcher 3 is a MASSIVE open world game.

Agreed, and its not been for a very very long time for all devs now.

I take it AMD was solely to blame for BF4 being a ****ing total mess for almost a year ? They were in partnership for that game. But no, its only Nvidia thats to blame when quite clearly for anyone that is not a troll that the devs have screwed up again.

Previous batmans were not console ports, this console port was done by a ****ing mobile phone developer.
 
Yep, no such thing as a port.

If it was simply ported they wouldn't have removed effects on PC that are there on PS4. The devs just did a crap job of the PC version imo, realised there were performance issues so started removing the effects that had the biggest performance hit, god knows how badly it would have performed with AO and proper rain effects.
 
Not blaming nVidia nor do I see how it could be there fault, but I do think it'd be a nice differentiator for TWIMTBP or GE if they did require some quality standards of games that want to be under that branding, though I can also see why neither company would actually want to do this (testing costs, plus both sides want more titles not to be cutting some out due to being too rubbish)

Might be better for reputation long term as while it's not fair to blame TWIMTBP or GE if a title using their libraries drops the ball people still will remember 'that AMD title was rubbish' or 'this nVidia title crashes all the time' or whatever, regardless of it being the actual games dev's fault.
 
Remember this?


Eurogamer tested The Witcher 3 on both AMD and Nvidia GPUs, comparing frame rates on each with HairWorks turned on and off. Their tests found that while the performance for both cards was lower with HairWorks on, the AMD card suffered from drastically reduced frame rates compared to Nvidia. Both were roughly equivalent with HairWorks turned off.

Does seem that Gameworks can take away from more than it gives to games. Performance down on both Nvidia and AMD, but much much worse on AMD. Whereas when Gameworks is turned off both were roughly equivalent. Dodgy stuff?

I am glad WB have suspended sales and glad they will sort it out. I am a good 10+ hours in and really enjoying it but I can also appreciate that people are having problems and the fact the PC version should look better than it does. As I understand it Nvidia send out devs to help optimise the game and show the devs how to best use the Gameworks libraries. They are not responsible for making the game the same way AMD didn't make Tomb Raider. Some of you really need to grow up.
