Pic kind of related.
Although Dark Souls is probably the absolute worst port I've played.
>>344060929
How is it bad? I didn't notice any problems with it at all.
>>344060929
Bioshock 2 plays better than 1, which wasn't even a port, what the fuck are you smoking
>>344060929
My old toaster of a laptop could even run this shit. What the fuck are you on about?
Most current gen games. I don't know why everything suddenly got worse when consoles started getting even closer to being PCs. I honestly thought it would get better.
>>344061547
>>344061537
>>344061428
I'm refering to the lack of options.
Yeah the game plays well but I can't change a lot of shit, mainly the FOV which makes me hurt to look at, and AF only goes up to 4X
>>344060929
BioShock 1, and to a lesser extent 2, had a few weird issues on PC. They weren't very stable, like in 2, the game would crash if you were to go through the door where you get the nail gun. 1 has some compatibility problems, and both have severe issues in DirectX10 mode.
>>344061785
I wonder if they're gonna put any effort into the upcoming Bioshock HD or whatever they're calling it
>>344061950
At the very least we'll get them for free
>>344061684
Consoles are the bulk of the profit, and the PC ports are cheaper than ever. There is no other explanation, PC is not worth the investment for the minimal return. Also consider the following. Many people will complain about a bad port, no one will sing praises about a good port, and hardly anyone cares if a game doesn't come to PC. You'll see people like Jim Sterling make a video about Arkham Knight's bad port and how poorly the situation was handled, but he would never make a video calling out why WB abandoned the PC market.
>tfw i actually love that the animations are pocked at 30fps on PC since it gives it a really cool looking effect which i always thought was part of the game.
>>344062159
The physics look janky even on consoles. They don't blend in, they look like they ran worse than the actual game.
>>344061684
Who cares, it's still way better than consoles.
>>344060929
Have to agree Bio2's wasn't the best port - Minerva's Den is especially unstable and crashed frequently on 2 different PCs - one with a 970 and 4690k - I want to finish it but the devs half-assed porting that DLC
>>344061428
To be fair mine crashed ALOT when i picked up any weapons or got into a big fight.
>>344062153
If they're going to do it at all you should do it right. Yes, people aren't going to praise you for doing your job but people are going to shit on you if you fuck up. That's how the world works. Going "but I'm not getting a smiley face sticker if I do a good job" just makes AAA companies seem like children.
Fallout 3, although that's bad on consoles as well.
Damn shame too, because it's probably the best of the bunch
>>344061428
It was shit until 2K patched it to not use GFWL.
Saints Row 2 was the worst.
If you didn't have a processor with the exact same frequency as Xbox 360's processor it would run either faster if the CPU had a lower frequency or slower if it had a faster frequency.
Also, for some reason upgrading to Windows 8 fixed it.
>>344062325
They weren't planning on bringing it to PC in the first place, mostly because of how shit GFWL was for patching and DLC. Its the same reason why RE5 golden didn't come to PC, and this is true again with the Windows Store and RotTRs updates.
>>344062325
>>344062386
That's weird, mine literally never crashed at all. BS2 ran extremely well on my PC and I had a 660 Ti.
>>344062153
Total Biscuit usually praises good PC ports when he's doing a "WTF is" and what not.
>>344062310
yes but on co soles the whole game runs close to 30fps so there no big difference. You can really notice it on pc with higher framerates and I think it looks cool, sort of like a rotoscope animation or an old film, which really fits in.
>>344060929
This one had pretty horrible Menu issues, which made the game very uncomfortable.
>>344062402
Its all about effort vs reward. Its cheaper to make a bad port, but even cheaper to not release the game on PC. PC by and far is the least profitable platform for AAA devs, otherwise bad/delayed ports wouldn't exist.
>>344062710
That doesn't excuse releasing broken products.
>>344060929
DSfix + DSMfix + Wolfs connectivity mod and dark souls becomes a decent port except maybe for some of the controls (even after rebinding keys its hard to do simple things like kick but they are pretty irrelevant)
Bad Company 2 constantly crashes due to onboard audio or some stupid shit.
>>344062548
I was on Win7 for both PCs and ran DirectX10 which I see mentions in this thread that DX10 was shit in that game - that could have been the issue but if I'm remembering correctly the high-quality textures were locked exclusively behind DX10 which is super shitty
>>344062521
>and this is true again with the Windows Store and RotTRs updates.
Remember when M$ said they weren't going to do GFWL 2.0?
>>344062839
DS2 was also bad if you're using KB+M
>inb4 "Just use a controller"
No, Dark Souls is perfectly feasable with a KB+M, but the problem with DS2 was that heavy attack and parry I think were hard coded to "Double click" on the mouse, so it would have this weird delay issue if you were trying to perform certain actions, like kick.
>>344060929
I never had any problems with it.
the remasters come out soon, for free too, so anyone who did have problems with it should be ok when they get released
>>344063423
>free
Wow really, so I get them automatically on my steam account just because I own the original versions?
Pretty based desu I love when devs do that stuff.
GTA San Andreas is near unplayable
>>344063825
3, VC, and SA all have similar problems. I wouldn't say they're unplayable but not locking the framerate to 30 fps (or 25 in SA) does cause a lot of issues. In SA there's at least one mission that breaks at too high a framerate.
>>344063127
>complaining about keyboard controls in a game that's literally designed for controllers
fucking retard
>>344063669
>so I get them automatically on my steam account just because I own the original versions?
yep, I don't know if they will automatically add but check steam round about the time of launch.
I still want to keep the originals.
They are not remaking infinite though, the consoles are getting the PC port that is it.
we get skyrim for free too later this year anon.
Bioshock 1 has no anti-aliasing options, crashes when you alt-tab, has no sound unless you run in XP compatibility, and crashes if you turn on vsync which then breaks the game since you can't turn it off and have to manually edit .ini files.
>>344064016
Fuck off retard, if they release an RTS on a console everyone would complain
>>344061950
All I'm hoping for is the ability to mod or extract game files. I've been wanting the raw files for some of the radio messages for years.
>>344064045
>remaking
Wait is it a full remake? I thought all of them were just a "HD release" which is actually just releasing the PC versions on console.
Is this getting a full redux, like say Metro did for example? What exactly is being done on them?
>>344064139
It's a lot easier to use a gamepad on PC than it is to use a keyboard on a console.
>>344061428
mouse acceleration.
not as awful as bioshock1 but still annoying.
>>344064139
halo wars
DaS is literally designed for consoles, how fucking stupid are you not to use a controller?
>>344061428
similar to dragon age origins... if it did not like your cpu it would crash like a bitch. BS1 has sound issues also.
>>344064489
I know 1 had problems, I had to fix the sound myself too, but 2 worked fine for me. Guess I was lucky.
>>344064324
Didn't notice any mouse acceleration at all, and I would because I hate it.
>>344061950
Seeing how Bioshock Infinite was a much better port I'd say it the pc port will be fine.
>>344064324
bioshock 2 mouse aim was perfect as you could fine tune it to whatever you wanted... bio1 was fuck awful in that regard
>>344064238
>What exactly is being done on them?
I don't actually know but it's not a remake like REmake, it just looks like updated textures, visuals fps etc.
probably just a HD remaster, with full 1080 60fps...bla bla bla
still they are free can't complain
no multiplayer in BS2 though
>>344061785
Not to mention without a fan patch (only bioshock 1 had one) the physics are locked at 30fps and look like absolute shit
>>344064389
Well I've played 400 hours of Dark Souls 1 with a keyboard and mouse, and did better than some friends with a controller, so you tell me
>>344064660
I bought a fx-6300 processor awhile back and 2 works fine now... but on my other processor it crashed so much it was unplayable. Strangely enough DA runs fine on it too (before I had to play v1.0 with music disabled to stop the soul destroying combat crashes)
>>344064690
yeah the mouse controls in bioshock 2 were mostly fine, but when the loot window opened the mouse acceleration kicked back in. it was really strange.
>>344063942
The framerate is locked to 25 fps in 3 and VC too
>>344064220
I remember watching my brother play a legal copy of this on steam, it was bugged and acted like a pirated version. If the game detected it was pirated it basically made cars blow themselves up and the game looked like you were drunk as fuck.
Bioshock 2 was the best bioshock game. Fight me faggots
>>344065803it is tho
>>344065803
it is the best.

>>344065803
I only care about the gameplay so I have to agree.
>>344066079
>neutral ending
fuck off with that shit
who /justiceending/ here?
>>344065803
Why would I fight someone who's obviously correct though?
>>344065803
But this was the most pathetically easy final boss in gaming history
Even easier than Fontaine/Atlas in the first game
>>344066636
Is it a QTE?
If not then the honor goes to Shadow of Mordor
>>344066636
who cares for the boss fight.
bioshock2 has:
best combat
best level design
best antagonist
best choice system
best main character
best ending
best DLC
>>344067216
I didn't like having to escort little sisters all the time. it was dull
also felt rehash tier
>>344067216
>sofia lamb
>better than ryan or fontaine
Explain
>>344067323
>also felt rehash tier
Just like Bioshock 1 then.
>>344067216
>best combat
Agreed
>best level design
It's 50/50
>best antagonist
Arguable
>best choice system
Agreed
>best main character
What?
>best ending
Arguable
>best DLC
What DLC did the first game have?
>>344067482
Yes, the series was always in the shadow of System Shock 2, this is why I didn't particularly care about Infinite dumbing it down, the series was already dumbed down SS2.
>>344067648
Do I have to post this again?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGXZ2VKRpwk
>>344064220
still unplayable for me
never played it for more than 1 hour because stuttering
yes i have amd but that doesnt change anything about how awful this port is
>>344067804
infinite got reduced to its ending. the ending twist was all the game was about and levine wanted to make sure that EVERYBODY gets to see it. therefore the generic FPS gameplay and boring levels.
>>344060929
This game ran like a gaping asshole with diarrhea. No idea what's wrong with this port.
>>344065803
/v/ never change
gameplay was polished but
>bullet sponges
>every encounter is horde trigger
>much much worse level design
not a bad game, but first was the best even when how bad the port was
>>344068115
Jesus, make an animated movie then you fucks
That's clearly what they wanted to do
>>344065803
Upgraded rivet gun is RIDICULOUSLY OP
Even on hard, you can kill everything in less than a minute
>>344068594
>much much worse level design
what?
bigger, more scavenging, more exploring - what's not to like?
I don't think anything has topped Saints Row 2 as the most completely fucked up port to PC.
They even managed to fuck up the bitrate of the radio station streams.
LA Noire is pretty bad. It crashes and there are a lot of graphical and framerate issues
>>344068115
even final release had so much potential
world building and art direction was extremely on point (inb4 apple texture) and i dont even care about "that card"
what really killed it for me was combat and tears
when elizabeth opened the fist tear, the whole game went to shit fast
whole story is the perfect definition of trying too hard
>>344065803
I've been arguing this for years. Everyone here seemed to hate it back then
>>344068769
bigger yes, but visually and in terms of "feels" there was nothing memorable like fort frolic, arcadia, farmers market, fisheries etc
>>344069150
the 30fps limit was such a downer
still enjoyed it a lot
>>344067037
The final boss of Bioshock 2 is a few enemy waves and then two big sisters at once
also, I personally never really minded the final boss of Bioshock 1. It was nothing to write home about but I still enjoyed it a little.
>>344062386
this, I crashed ALOT
>>344063669
das rite
>>344060929
>literally just installed this game 10 minutes ago
I hope I don't experience bad shit.
>>344065803
wow look at this correct opinion
>>344067557
>What?
Delta was way better than Jack or Booker.
Maybe you have an argument for Sigma, though
>>344069502
what this anon said is accurate >>344068594
big sisters and big splicers are just bullet sponges
last boss is shit like >>344070390 said
enemy waves over and over for getting adam got old pretty fast
>>344066451
Right here motherfucker, time to smite evil and save innocents.

She is the epitome of horrible bitch parent trying to get custody rights and has managed to convince everyone to turn everyone against you.
>>344065803
It's happening. Bioshock 2 is the new Majora's Mask. People are finally realizing the sequel is better.
>>344060929
Saints Row 2
>>344073658
she's badly shoehorned into the game's story
>>344060929
Dark Souls has patches and if you dont have a controller then you deserve what you get
>>344065803
Yeah pretty much
