Warner Bros. Admits It Can’t Fix Arkham Knight On PC
Since it was released on PC, Rocksteady’s ambitious conclusion to their Batman saga has been pretty much unplayable and broken in fundamental ways. Now it looks like the devs and publishers at Warner Bros. have finally given up and are fully admitting they won’t be able to completely fix the game, offering full refunds as a result. “We are very sorry that many of our customers continue to be unhappy with the PC version of Batman: Arkham Knight,” Warner Bros. official community admin said in a recent update on Steam. “We worked hard to get the game to live up to the standard you deserve but understand that many of you are still experiencing issues.” “Until the end of 2015, we will be offering a full refund on Batman: Arkham Knight PC, regardless of ...
What’s Wrong with the Batmobile?
Batman: Arkham Knight has a lot of things going for it. The combat is as good as ever, the gliding is still intuitive and satisfying, and the story is a solid conclusion to Rocksteady’s trilogy. But there’s one thing that’s bugged a lot of players: the Batmobile. There’s a few reasons why the Batmobile is so flat compared to the rest of the game. 1. Overpowered For most of the game, Batman is pretty easy to kill, particularly with weapons. This makes him feel extra resourceful when he’s sneaking around and fighting enemies that could destroy him quickly. It’s the reason he has all his technology and intelligence. The Batmobile is pretty hard to kill in the game, especially since dodging shots from enemy tanks is made pretty simple. Sure, you can get overwhelmed, but the fact that the game ...

In a rather generous and consumer friendly turn of events, Rocksteady apologised for the much maligned sub-par PC port of Batman: Arkham Knight and recommended players t claim a refund from Steam.

Arkham Knight PC A Bust: Fans Batmad
Batman Arkham Knight is not enjoying a good launch on the PC. In fact, the launch is so bad, it puts to mind the launches of Assassin’s Creed: Unity and Aliens: Colonial Marines. The game uses the notorious DRM Denuvo (on top of Steam) and appears to be horribly unoptimised, with people reporting that not even a 980Ti can maintain playable framerates on even High, with numerous issues with SLI and Crossfire support (Crossfire is disabled in AMD’s Game Ready Driver, and SLI actually reduces framerate with Nvidia). Reports of stuttering and audio glitches are also numerous. There also appears to be a memory leak in the game, which causes the application to bloat to about 15GBs on RAM before crashing. It’s also locked to 30FPS. And AMD cards are even worse off, as even the o...

Batman Arkham Knight Officer Down Gameplay Footage
Warner Bros has just revealed a 7 minute clip from Batman Arkham Knight which is claimed to be recorded directly from a PlayStation 4. If you ask me this video could even be labelled a trailer and still manage to pull it off. The video really showcases the graphical splendor of the current-gen-only title, in both its massive size as well as detail. The clip also showcases Batman taking on goons with his familiar combo chains and counters. Not much as changed in that aspect except perhaps the enhanced cinematography present throughout, with gameplay sequences stitched together. Originally intended to be released in 2014, Batman Arkham Knight’s release date has been delayed again, this time to June 23. The game is coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.
