The Last Of Us Part 1: Has Naughty Dog Fixed The PC Port?

Digital Foundry : One of the most disappointing PC launches of the year was the conversion of The Last of Us Part 1. Many patches have followed since we first looked at the game and many issues remain - particularly in terms of stutter, CPU and GPU utilisation. However, the good news is that at least the texture management problems have been comprehensively resolved - and a highly respectable experience is now possible for PC users with 8GB graphics cards.

yea its pretty much fixed now, played the whole thing without a single crash, I just dont understanding why this game or similar games dont launch in this fixed state instead of the broken mess it launched in, people still talk about batman arkham knight due to the state it launched in nearly 8 years ago now, why would any company want to rush a game and ruin its reputation in the long run just for some temporary financial gain, did they really earn that much more due to launching one month early ?

if it launched with the patch 1.05 the steam reviews would be good too, now everyone will remember the launch of this game years from now and forget about the patches which most people don't even pay attention to. Thankfully atleast its fixed now, I genuinely thought it would not get fixed as this is one of the great games from last gen that I play once every few years so going forward can play it properly now.

I'm guessing they rushed it out because of the tv series. Unfortunately PC gaming is always a mixed bag when it comes to console prioritized games. Steam nor other store fronts don't really have quality and certification procedures as console releases do.

Still not fully fixed, will wait for around 2-3 patches to arrive before I buy. Should be heavily discounted by then.

The Last Of Us Series Has Remarkable Potential For Spin-Offs

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."

anast103d ago

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.

AlterRecs100d ago

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast100d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs99d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast99d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

DrDoomer103d ago

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing69103d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs100d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing69100d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.

The Last Of Us Online Devs Celebrate Their Experience With The Canceled Game

The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.

Chocoburger147d ago

All they had to do was make a basic online mode like their previous games. Instead they wanted more money and choose to go live service which makes games worse in my opinion.

What a waste of time and money, what a shame.

seanpitt23103d ago

I can't wait for season 2 so they can kill Joel off in the first 2 episodes!! Then it will be just Abby and Ellies revenge plot!

Something is telling me that this won't happen though because it wouldn't make sense, oh wait

Linzoid147d ago

Not sure why they didn’t just make Factions 2. There was no need to make it a live service.

TLoU Factions was a great addition such a shame they couldn’t be bothered to remaster that for PS5 considering the crazy high price tag of the remaster of a remaster…

anast147d ago

This is something to be celebrated. This studio is smart and they get it, even factions 2 wouldn't've have been worth the time. I am surprised they didn't just remaster the first one though, but actually how popular was Factions?
