Rocksteady is leading our team of developers and partners as we work on the PC performance issues that players have been encountering. The work is significant and while we are making good progress on improving performance, it will take some time to ensure that we get the right fixes in place.
Below is the list of the key areas where we are dedicating our resources to improve the experience for our loyal fans:
- Support for frame rates above 30FPS in the graphics settings menu
- Fix for low resolution texture bug
- Improve overall performance and framerate hitches
- Add more options to the graphics settings menu
- Improvements to hard drive streaming and hitches
- Address full screen rendering bug on gaming laptops
- Improvements to system memory and VRAM usage
- NVIDIA SLI bug fixes
- Enabling AMD Crossfire
- NVIDIA and AMD updated drivers
While we work on improving performance, we will also continue to make interim patches available to address issues for those still playing the game on PC. The first patch is being released now and the updates include:
- Fixed a crash that was happening for some users when exiting the game
- Fixed a bug which disabled rain effects and ambient occlusion. We are actively looking into fixing other bugs to improve this further
- Corrected an issue that was causing Steam to re-download the game when verifying the integrity of the game cache through the Steam client
- Fixed a bug that caused the game to crash when turning off Motion Blur in BmSystemSettings.ini. A future patch will enable this in the graphics settings menu
We would like to thank our fans for their patience and invaluable feedback. We will continue to monitor and listen for any additional issues.

Let's just make something clear here...I called Rattlehead out on his bullshit and he messaged me on Steam freaking out about it being none of my business.
If you make your statements about your own intentions or actions on Blues, it becomes the business of anyone that reads it. You open yourself up to criticism.
Rattlehead has been posting for a week about how the game runs like shit on his system and that he was going to be getting a refund (kinda sounded like he had already) and pirating the game. This is all things he stated on Blues for anyone to read. Turns out, he was still progressing through the game and anyone on his friends list could see that.
So he either he a) Didn't get a refund despite all his posturing about it, or b) Did pirate it and was dumb enough to give the pirated copy internet access. I called him on it.
Turns out he never paid for the game to begin with. He got it with his video card like many others did...and he thought he'd get a refund from Steam for something he never paid Steam for, never mind completely illogical. /facepalm
Does someone getting this free excuse Rocksteady or WB over the state of the game for some people? No. But it really does go to show the sheer stupidity of some folks.Rattlehead wrote on Jun 24, 2015, 20:58:
WB has just suspended all sales of the game. Just unbelievable. Of course they won't issue refunds, as they have our money.
I got a refund from Steam, and will pirate this game.Rattlehead wrote on Jun 24, 2015, 10:24:

This port is nearly unplayable...
So within the same day, you state that they won't issue refunds, twice you already got a refund, and once that you will pirate it. And you stated it was unplayable, yet you've still been progressing through the game.
Referring to the other thread on this topic...this is why I take the whiney bitches and their complaints with a massive grain of salt. There are rational complaints and behaviour and then there is irrational complaints and behaviour.
Fucking beautiful work you did there, Krovven. Calling ppl on their bullshit like this puts a grin on my face! xD
Please. Krovven's apparent MO is to make public that which should be kept private. He did it before during our argument to the poor sod who asked him to chill and he's doing it again here. What does he gain by calling him out? Granted, I don't agree with the little erchin and he pretty much pissed in my Corn Flakes out of the blue and for no reason, but still, I'm not going to go into his personal life and air dirty laundry.
God forbid anyone should see what's on my 4 terabytes worth of hard drive space. I have no problem with admitting I pirate games, if only because I live paycheck to paycheck and they don't make demos anymore. More of an excuse but so be it. I do it because I can? Yeah, probably that too. So if he went over to, oh, say, Pastebin, and looked up my hard drive directory listing (yes, it's there) and came back here and lambasted me for it, I wouldn't be pissed because he looked for it, I'd be pissed because he came back here, to a totally unrelated place and publicly gave me shit about it while trying to look like he's doing it for the 'greater good'. Because, why else would he be? Attention? Well, yeah, that too, obviously. And you sit here and slap him on the back for it?! What the hell is wrong with you, Quinn?! This isn't fucking high school, grow the fuck up!

If you want something kept private, like your freakout over GTA being delayed and your intent to pirate it, or Rattleheads posturing over getting a refund and pirating...then don't announce it to the world on a public forum. Especially if it turns out you are just flat out lying.
Discussion of pirating software is not permitted on Blues News and you will be called on it, not just by me.
Your analogy is ridiculous. I wasn't looking at his private files.
Oh for fucks sake, Krovven, do I have to really spell it out for you? Really?
Don't announce it on a public forum. Fine. You just totally missed the whole other part about having a discussion NOT on a public forum, but on a PM on STEAM and then bringing that argument and what was said back over here, just like you did to whoever during our previous argument! How hard it that? You want to call people out on Blues for whatever, fine. My problem is bringing private discussions into a public space, usually as a shaming tactic. I don't think I can make that any more clear.
My analogy about my files wasn't about 'files', it was about it being private, on another totally unrelated part of the Internet and then bringing that knowledge back here to publicly call me out and/or shame me for it. Understand now?

The studio is called Iron Galaxy, and they only developed Arkham Origins, which was released in a far more stable state than this garbage.
Also, you don't need to sign each post with your name and dashes and periods, it's already in the upper right hand corner.
Thanks, Mom. Seeing how I've been doing it for nearly 15 years on Blues alone and you're the only person to ever have a problem with it, I don't find it an issue. If it bothers you so much, put me on ignore.
As for Iron Sky or Iron Galaxy or whatever, everyone seems to know who I was speaking about, though that would explain why I couldn't find information on it specifically the other day...not that I took much time to look. You obviously knew who I was talking about, and further what game I was talking about in order to correct my mistake, so, again, I don't consider it an issue...
Anything else you want to bust my balls over or are you finished?
EDIT: Wait...wait..wait....I almost missed that....The studio is called Iron Galaxy, and they only developed Arkham Origins
Bullshit. They were the ones that developed this port for the PC. I've seen it said a million fucking times already! (name notwithstanding) You have no clue what the hell you're talking about. I didn't do a lot of research, (sorry, contrary to what you may think, I DO have a life) but I know what I've read and I know that the same studio that pushed out this turd was the same one that put out the previous one, also contracted by Rocksteady.
In fact, look at that, it's right here in BLACK AND WHITE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Galaxy_Studios
(From #7 on the 'References' list at above mentioned Wikipedia link:)" Game director Sefton Hill has suggested that the PC port of Batman: Arkham Knight was outsourced to Iron Galaxy, stating that Warner Bros is working with the developer "to address the issues ASAP".
Case closed.

I swear when I see some of these changelogs, it's like they've never developed a PC game before. If the previous games had a detailed graphics options menu, why have a simplistic menu in this one?! As Mr. Biscuit (heh) said, the Far Cry series from 2 on has always had the same graphics options and others added as technology progressed, so why fix what's not broken? And I am talking about Iron Sky, the PC dev of this port, not Rocksteady, as they were also the ones to develop and build the last Arkham game (for PC)...

Overon, a lot of us got it as a pack-in with our video cards. I'd probably have already pushed a refund through if I hadn't. Waiting it out is my only option, and I'm OK with that. I'm not HAPPY that this happened, but Rocksteady seems pretty serious about getting it back on track and just as fantastic as their first two batman games. I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, and revisit it in a month or so.
This is very much a First World Problem, and I've realized that I must live a wonderful life if I even have the TIME to get mad about a game not working right.

With that reasoning you shouldn't complain about anything anymore, ever, unless it has to so with famine, sickness or death.
Way to miss his sarcasm. Did you read passed "First World Problem"?
