Batman Arkham Knight PC Performance Analysis, is it Finally Fixed?

WCCFtech goes in-depth to analyze the performance of Batman Arkham Knight on two different systems to see if it's improved since it was taken off of the market for PC. Is Batman Arkham Knight better now that it's been re-released?

WOW, I did not expect those results at all!

FlameBaitGod3132d ago (Edited 3132d ago )

They are using 550+ dollar cards LMFAO!!!!!, what a joke. Even the average at 1080p on a 1 thousand dollar card is 119 frames LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. How can anyone be impressed with this, those cards cost from 550 to 1 THOUSAND DOOLLARS and they still cant even get an average of 140 frames at 1080p.

Volkama3132d ago

140 fps (or 144 more likely) is a pretty strange and niche target, and pretty much impossible on a lot of games because the demands on the CPU more so than GPU.

Highly recommend freesync or Gsync if you're serious about playing at those framerates

FlameBaitGod3132d ago (Edited 3132d ago )

I have been playing at 140+ frames for a long time lol. I custom build PC's for my self and others and getting to 140 frames is not impossible at all, you can have up to 300 frames in mad max(example of a new game) with everything maxed out on an 4Ghz i7 core. Next year is when the CPU's will really bottleneck with the release of Pascal and Arctic Islands

freshslicepizza3131d ago

1080p and everything on max and the amd 370 card (which is less than $200) averaging 36 frames per second, better than the consoles.

VER1ON3132d ago

Impressive and about time

Chris_Wray3132d ago

From the FPS side it may have improved, but even now companies are offering refunds until the end of the year on the game. It's still nothing like it should be.

wesjanson993132d ago

Good point, it's not completely fixed, but at least they managed something while they were working on it. Still plays well on consoles at least.

Volkama3132d ago

Wow, Gameworks really hammers the performance way beyond it's value. NVidia need to cut that crap out.

hirobrotagonist3132d ago

hmm, it still has microstuttering every few seconds for me and it still doesn't support SLI...

jeromeface3132d ago

Nvidia released a game ready driver today 358.87 that has a sli profile for batman AK. I haven't tested it yet.

VJGenova3131d ago

If sli is fixed, i might pick this game up. Want 4k 60 fps, and can't do that with just 1 980ti ...

Batman: Arkham Shadow is another VR game players do not want

Geoff Keighley revealed a new Batman Arkham game is in the works to be released later this year, with a first look at gameplay happening at Summer Game Fest. Unfortunately for just about everyone, Batman: Arkham Shadow is a VR-only game exclusive to the Meta Quest 3. The community reaction hasn’t been great.

What a bunch of nonsense.
Gamers saw 0 seconds of actual gameplay and the author of this "article" says they don't want the game.

Friendlygamer28d ago

Don't even know what is a meta quest 3

abstractel28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

Troll post?

On topic, this could be good but no way to know until it's out. Glad that it's Quest 3 exclusive so it doesn't have to run on the Quest 2. If it turns out to be good, I look forward to a eventual PCVR or PSVR 2 port.

Friendlygamer28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

I mean, I know what a vr headset is but I've never heard of this one, I thought the big one was the Sony one. I have a friend who believed Microsoft hadn't released a new Xbox console to compete with the ps5 because series s and series x sound a lot like x and s, that's how apathetic people can be I guess

aaronlif1028d ago

I see the industry is once again trying to bash VR. I honestly think most game companies don't want to have to cater to VR and are doing whatever they can to bury it. Which is a shame because when done right, VR games are absolutely amazing. Half Life Alyx being one of the most obvious examples. But too many people are trying to see it fail. Most of the big companies don't want to spend the extra energy on it. It's much easier to just churn out yet another call of duty that they know will make a ton of money, which from a business standpoint is understandable, but unfortunately they are preventing the evolution of a new way to experience gaming. When I see an article like this, it just makes me think that there's a real effort to cause VR to fail. Has this guy even played the game? Has he even seen any actual gameplay from it? For all he knows it could be amazing. I think the only complaint I have is that it's coming only to meta quest 3 and not PSVR2, which seems like an odd decision. Sony is dropping the ball with PSVR2 so bad. It's a great headset but they simply aren't making any effort to support it. And I think it all boils down to big companies not wanting to put the effort towards VR. But Sony needs to push harder too. How Half Life Alyx hasn't shown up or even been hinted at for PSVR2 since the headset came out is beyond me. Sony should be moving mountains to convince Valve to port the game to PS5 and PSVR2. That is the biggest chance Sony has at convincing people of what VR can do. It's sad really. I love VR games. Half Life Alyx is one of my favorite gaming experiences ever. And it wouldn't have been possible any other way. I truly hope these people don't cause us to lose out on such a promising tech. But articles like this certainly don't help. And it's especially frustrating when clearly this person hasn't even tried the game yet.

Michiel198928d ago

if I were a massive company I wouldn't make VR games either. It's so much risk, first you have to nail making a game for VR, which we've seen is really hard to do. Secondly, the vr market is very fractured considering how small it is. Quite a decent amount of headsets for such a small space, all which have different specs, so then you gotta pick the right one. 3rd is needs to sell an astronomical amount relative to the install base for a AAA VR game to pay off. Too much if's and risks and not worth the effort.

Kill the Justice League Is More Gotham Knights Than Batman: Arkham - & That's a Bad Sign

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has more in common with Gotham Knights than the Batman: Arkham games. Here's why that's a bad thing.

Marvel's Spider-Man Is Still The Best Batman: Arkham Successor

Gotham Knights attempts to follow up the beloved Batman: Arkham franchise, but Marvel’s Spider-Man is a much more effective successor series.

Tf are you talking about? Nearly every aspect of the game was built off the Spider-Man 2 ps2/xbox game including the combat, not Arkham

gangsta_red522d ago

I really don't understand how anyone could not see that the glaring similarities

isarai522d ago

Read the article bro, the dev says "in regards to how it handles its characters" the journalist is the one that talks about gameplay not the dev.

Outside_ofthe_Box522d ago

Arkham series set the foundation for all future licensed superhero games going forward. No longer will quick movie-tie-ins be accepted. Rocksteady is legendary for that.

RaveTears521d ago

James Gunn just recently said that DC games are pretty much going to be tie-in to TV/Movie.

blackblades521d ago (Edited 521d ago )

Who dat, we should tell him to F off and get ready for 3/10 scores.
Googled: Oh that guy, DC is dying with all the shake up, lol Harley Quinn musical

WeAreLegion521d ago

Web of Shadows had an excellent combat system. The game obviously wasn't polished, but that combat was fire.

ZeekQuattro521d ago

Yeah it did. Shame its planned sequel was axed.

StarkR3ality521d ago

Some of the best superhero media ever, never mind games. Both 2 of the best franchises in gaming.

Just a shame only one of them is currently still going. Would love a new batman Arkham game on current gen considering how good Knight still looks to this day. Would be amazing.

Notsofast521d ago

even though spider man does take somethings from batman its not as much as some people might think for one spider man 2 and the amazing spider man games were all similar to marvels spiderman its just that when games get to old people forget them so batman actually is also copying spiderman
