Hey Capcom I want a remake of Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2 on Switch or, maybe Switch 2. I loved both of those games on GameCube.
Good. capcom and square enix were my two favourite developers and now it's just CapCom! Square enix keeps missing the mark, their sparks gone.
Dragon's Dogma 2 continues Capcom's hot streak of favorably reviewed games as the studio lands first on Metacritic's top publishers ranking.
Responding to a query about frame rate problems from IGN, Capcom said in a statement that performance issues on PC may be linked to the heavy amount of CPU demanded from NPCs in the game.
"In Dragon's Dogma 2, a large amount of CPU usage is allocated to each character and dynamically calculates the impact of their physical presence in various environments. In certain situations where numerous characters appear simultaneously, the CPU usage can be very high and may affect the frame rate," a Capcom representative told IGN. "We are aware that in such situations, settings that reduce GPU load may currently have a limited effect; however, we are looking into ways to improve performance in the future."
What a load of bull there blaming the npc load for there poor performance? the new hitman games has way more going on beyond that they are saying any pc cpu is not powerful enough?
In the article it is also stated a ign reviewr got motion sickness playing ps5/pc version but still enjoyed it? like wow if that was me i would knock it down alot and asked for a patch asap.
So those about to play thank denuvo get a barf bucket if your on pc play 720p because like cites skyline its going to be a unoptimized cpu mess.
Man those on series s/steam deck/rog ally rip :(
Project Zomboid a simple looking isometric game has a similar problem as the Zombies are CPU heavy. If this is the issue GPU tweeks won't do anything, you need less calculations per NPC or more static NPCs
Well that’s just great…looks like I’ll be holding off on buying this on PC until it’s fixed. If I wanted low frame rates I’d just buy it in console smh…
I have a serious love/hate relationship with this game. I love the combat and character building, and I absolutely HATE the bugs I've encountered.
So glad I waited to play this. I knew Capcom all too well.
I seriously can't wait for this.
I cant wait either. One of my favorite games last year. Will my save from the last game work? It must, otherwise they will alienate so many of the hardcore fan base and not make much money. Assuming i can use my save, i will buy it in a second. I guess i can sell the copy i have now. Very odd how they did this considering that all old copies will become useless basically.
I'm kinda a bit confused... So if you already have the original game, basically you should sell it now and get the Dragon's Dogma expansion pack when it comes, as it will have the original game with the extras correct? And I'm guessing that they will have some program to show you bought the original game to get the extra benefits of buying the original game?
