@Fatboi1 ...nothing on the list says that the graphical issues have been fixed...they are still working on that.

- Fixed a bug which disabled rain effects and ambient occlusion. We are actively looking into fixing other bugs to improve this further

those were the two effects that were missing from the PC version (and present in the console versions). although it's not clear what "other bugs" they're working on

Gonna see if this works!

Ambient Occlusion and the rain shaders were fixed.
Before and after

Man performance is all over the place. At times I'll have 60fps and then flying over the city the shyt will dip into the 20's.

they do kinda state that they are still working on the optimization. It will be a while before the game works as intented.

did you click update on steam?

 

[Fatboi1]

Fukk man this hitching and shyt is driving me nuts. The game is great but this constant stutter, pause and frame drops is ruining the game for me right now. I'm gonna try and just lock it at 30 but it still drops..

the patch has not been released yet.

 

[Fatboi1]

Ehh, I'll just wait. I already requested a refund so I'll recop when the game is good. Right now the hitching, stuttering is too severe to ignore and on top of that the graphical issues are still present. Rain shaders still look diminished compared to the PS4 version for some odd reason and others say it appears sometimes on new games but when you quit and reload it diminishes.

On the Batmobile. It still shows on Batman. It shows on the Batmobile too, but not the extent as it would when you play the game uninterrupted from start.

Load from save:

New game:

I guess those are the "other bugs" with the rain effects

Never would've imagined that Rocksteady would release a bad PC port considering the last Batman's they developed were damn near perfect on PC. You would think a company owned by Warner Bros would have enough resources and or pull to have more people work on a port.

I've got the video uploading but my connection is being shyt and saying it'll take 3 hours.

If anyone is interested in testing the tweaks I'm using:
BMSystemSettings.ini:
BMEngine.ini:

Using Nvidia Adaptive Half-Refresh Vsync.

Interesting to note, that no matter what I tried I couldn't ever get the game to a locked 60fps, even after dropping the resolution to 1600x900. It would always dip into the 40s during super fast Batmobile runs, or fast gliding around the city on the HDD, and into the mid to low 50s on the SSD.

Oh, and this was downsampling from 2560x1440.

I'm on AMD and I used Radeonpro's double vsync feature to lock it at 30fps. Seems to work much better for me right now though I'd prefer 60fps.

Son neither of the last 2 Batman's was perfect on the PC. Arkham City's DX11 was fukked up and I dont think they ever fixed it. And Arkham Origins had its issues as well. Neither as fukked up as Arkham Knight of course.
