Fighting games having characters as DLC is a normal thing. Now sometimes DLC came already on the disc, and when you purchase the DLC, the content is simply unlocked. Even major titles like Mass Effect and Gears of War are guilty of having DLC on the disc. It sucks, plain and simple. Forcing people to pay for items on a disc that they already had to shell out $60 dollars for is wrong. Sadly it has become a standard for games now, and it probably won’t change. Capcom has recently confirmed something that does not sit well with me at all. All of the DLC characters for Tekken X Street Fighter are not already done being developed, but are actually on the disc. Gamers will just have to pay to unlock the content for the game that they just purchased.
Dragon's Dogma 2 continues Capcom's hot streak of favorably reviewed games as the studio lands first on Metacritic's top publishers ranking.
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."
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 :(
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
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…
Capcom Boosts Starting Salaries in Japan by Over 25%! Strategic move to attract top talent and align with industry trends amid economic inflation.
Well there is a lot of laid off talent out there. Very smart of them to target that. Plus if it’s in Japan, that’s a great place to live.
I really approve of Capcom for doing this and will show my appreciation by supporting them. There are a few Capcom games I need to get... and this includes Dragon's Dogma 2. Support companies that support the people working in the industry over shareholders! REMEMBER: Shareholder's don't make games!
25% sounds like a lot, but it's from $1,560 to $2000 per month. That's $24,000 a year. Unless u became a monk, that is below poverty line.
There isn't a single mention of the 3ds in this article despite the tag, which I find funny, as Capcom's treatment of the 3ds is much better than the other consoles. (Here lately, anyway.... ^_^;)
Good riddance.
I did it a long time ago, no games froms crapcom from a long time ago
After making a game mode exclusive, no matter if its just a timed exclusive, which is ridiculous, im dumping capcom.. For now, and ill just get operation raccoon city when its cheapwhen its cheap.
