I like how the intro says, "This crossover project between two of the interactive entertainment industry's most respected publishers will see..." despite I only see ONE well respected publisher and that is VALVE. To me Capcom isn't a well respected publisher anymore, it's a stubborn company that has done more harm and than good during this current generation console and probably during next gen as well.

adorie4057d ago

I guess people enjoy cancelled games, dlc, lies and 10 variations of thesame game. Still, this project is cool and shows Capcom is interested in PC. Now, let's hope they learn something from Valve during the process.

I hardly consider valve a game company. They produce games slower than blizzard... There good games but not that damn good. Portal 2 was a cool playthrough, but theres no replay value in it. What was before portal 2? Halflife from 15 years ago? So we got one company who shits games out like they got em on backlog somewhere and than another that makes a decent game every decade...

kevnb4057d ago (Edited 4057d ago )

?
Dota 2, team fortress 2 and the left 4 dead games are awesome.

honkayjeezus4057d ago

When you expect little, you get little.

ThanatosDMC4056d ago

Is it gonna be like Street Fighter X Tekken in which all the characters all ready on the disk are going to be paid dlcs or exclusive dlcs?

Damn people can't even like free content that they don't have to make??

It's free so it's good, whether you like the games or not.

camel_toad4057d ago

Agreed and while I doubt it would actually happen, being Nemesis or licker or several other resident evil baddies as a left 4 dead infected could be great. I'm always excited when new infected are introduced.

Andreex4057d ago

Dude, nemesis would ABSOLUTELY destroy every cell in a Tank's body

Rivitur4056d ago

I'll stick with my Donkey Kong tank, Velocoraptors, and minecraft common infected which from time to time I'll switch to little adorable cats.

Grap4057d ago

NOOOO i don't want anything RE6 related to my L4D2 copy.

Kran4057d ago (Edited 4057d ago )

What it sounds like from you: "NOOOO i don't want to catch a virus from an unhealthy person to my healthy body"

What I would say: "Yay. Free content; whether I like it or not. Free is free."

@EbenezerGoode

I suppose thats true. When given a free sample, half the time it's crap food xD

EbeneezerGoode4057d ago

actually "free" is often thinly veiled advertising and unwelcome.

LightSamus4057d ago

Don't download it then, simple.

Capcom Is 'Aware' of Dragon's Dogma 2 Frame Rate Issues on PC

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."

just_looken34d ago

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 :(

just_looken34d ago (Edited 34d ago )

Just putting up a pcgamer review

"its janky has bugs poor performance need lots of updates 89/100"

Man have we dropped that quality bar for acceptable performance/optimization

andy8534d ago (Edited 34d ago )

Am I hearing that right, that reviewer with a 4090 is getting drops into the 20s when there's several NPC on screen. Sorry but there's zero excuse for that. BG3 had hundreds at a time on screen and that's a pretty game. What an absolute piss poor engine

just_looken34d ago

@andy

Yes the is correct but every review is giving it a past and or saying that its great that the performance is like the first ps3/xbox one game.

2012 20-30fps 2024 20-30fps dragons dogma keeping things the same reviewers like that apparently

just_looken34d ago

IGN put up a video showing the 4090 struggling aswell as console performance all versions are like the first game with fps issues.Remember dlss 3.0 can almost double your fps like that cyber punk video so without dlss on your looking at 30fps on the most powerful gpu that is out right now.

Cacabunga34d ago

Capcom where is Deep Down???

Tapani34d ago

@andy85 At launch BG3 dropped to under 30fps at the final chapter on 4090. I played the game at launch and had that experience. And that was with a 5800X3D. Everything watercooled and fine-tuned CPU/GPU and memory at 32GB with good timings, and a fast SSD etc.

just_looken34d ago

@tapani

I am sorry are we comparing a AA game with a small budget with alot going on 24/7 to a AAA game funded buy the billion dollar capcom?

You are right yes but that was patched and that team loves there community but if the first dogma said anything we should expect a patch or 2 but that is it.

andy8533d ago

@Tapani indeed but that was hundreds of NPCs. Not a few. It's piss poor

lellkay34d ago

Can they be aware of the need for 60fps on consoles plz

just_looken34d ago (Edited 34d ago )

Oh no kidding that "pro" model better have a 60fps mode.

But that ps5 pro PSSR will no doubt be a hold back as i see very few devs make a fsr/dlss/pssr game like really sony why did you spend millions to make upscale tech on the 6800 when amd already has fsr 3.0 just sitting there.

I remember the ps4 pro patches that dwindle over time yes new games had the modes but they were not standard and that was without the base ps4 using another upscale tech.

Edit:

In tldr form devs now make fsr upscale for ps5/xbox PSSR upscale tech on ps5 pro game then dlss/fsr upscale tech pc version and we also have intels xess just insane workload

Eonjay34d ago

'Oh no kidding that "pro" model better have a 60fps mode.'

Perhaps but only if Capcom addresses the issues first. substantially more powerful hardware is struggling.

Furesis34d ago

I mean it's not helping but this is something more than that. Plenty of games with denuvo that work fine

just_looken34d ago

That could be also taxing for sure sense the ps5 also supports that dreadful drm

This is also running off the RE engine remember those re vids with the denuvo drm on/off

MrDead34d ago (Edited 34d ago )

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

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH33d ago

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…

15 Xbox Games That Should Make the Multiplatform Jump

While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.

GamerRN38d ago

Single A games and live service games. Those make sense

S2Killinit38d ago

None of it makes sense. But its happening.

Ps5conehead38d ago

That’s up to Microsoft they want return on there investment. From buying up those publishers. That’s what there in business for. And they made a mistake putting day one exclusive on game pass. So now Microsoft wants to profit any way they can.its called buisness . Just like Sony putting games on pc a year are two after ps5 launch.
So if they can make money off PlayStation and Nintendo. They will do that. And I bet soon real soon they will release some aaa exclusives .and I bet one day it will be same day release

TheEroica38d ago

Sony gamers begging for Xbox games.... Who would've thunk it?

BISHOP-BRASIL38d ago

Yeah, because random site off the internet represents all Sony gamers, they have the letter of attorney and all...

S2Killinit38d ago

Lol what a spin. You dizzy?

AsunaYuukiTheFlash38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

We don’t care about shovelwares. Get that junk out of PS5

StormSnooper38d ago

More like MS begging to put their games on PlayStation.

TheEroica36d ago

Keep begging Sony gamers!

Friendlygamer38d ago

Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela

S2Killinit38d ago

Even more indies skip xbox. We know that right?

Friendlygamer38d ago

Quality over quantity, Microsoft got some really interesting and curated niche games on their machines, maybe in part because of gamepass

S2Killinit38d ago

Quality and MS are not things you bring up in same sentence.

shinoff218338d ago (Edited 38d ago )

Alot of indies skip xbox to. It goes round and round. Personally I think your off base on that but no need to have the argument.

Friendlygamer38d ago

Between katana zero, valheim, Battletech, el passo... I don't feel off base. maybe ps got a million of light novel games that will never release on Xbox but like I've said, I'm talking about niche games highlights, the 10%.

  Heck, it's probably thanks to Microsoft that the s.t.a.l.k.e.r games came to console ps included, meanwhile Sony backwards compatibility continues to be extremely anemic.

And I'm sure most ps5 users are happy to ignore these games and just play wathever new 3rd person action game is trending but it's cool that Microsoft gives some love to smaller audiences and software preservation

shinoff218338d ago

Again your off base just to be snide. All it's showing though is your ignorance.

One light novels wtf is that even. Ps has plenty of pretty damn good indies.

Speaking of indies and ms being responsible. You know F.I.S.T. of course you do alot of you guys just support gamepass. Well here's a history of Sony being responsible for helping indies. Look up the China project from Sony.

Lastly lol your ignorance showing again. Sony has plenty of games. Personally third person is better then first anyway but that's besides the point. Sony gets so many games that xbox doesn't get because yall don't support the games. Jrpgs being a great example. I personally am not into every Sony first party game. Alot of us aren't. On the other side you don't get to eat often so you gobble up everything. Me personally God of War not my cup, etc. For me I'm into jrpgs and ms just can't touch Sony on those. Again because the Xbox base doesn't support it. Devs dont wanna waste their time or money. Hit me up when falcom develops a game over there.

Speaking of third person narrative games. Aren't yall drooling over hellblade 2. The first one was Sony exclusive at one point. Another not my cup game. Showing we don't have to fall in line and agree we love everything Sony puts out. The facts are they sell though unlike elsewhere(not nintendo)

StormSnooper38d ago

You are same person as GamerRN, yes?

Abnor_Mal38d ago

They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.

Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.

TwoPicklesGood38d ago

I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.

shinoff218338d ago

While indont agree with the games. I agree with the point. Your not wrong.

DarXyde38d ago

Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.

Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.
