The below information was submitted via e-mail from an unconfirmed source. The info claims some shocking revelations regarding Capcom’s SF X Tekken, SSF4 and the heavily rumored Darkstalkers 4. As usual, since this is a rumor, thou must take it with a fat, giant, big, humongous grain of salt.
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.
Darkstalkers 4 please make it happen
"Capcom is deeply regretting their DLC decisions with SFxT"
They should be. The amount of nickle and dimeing in that game is laughable because everything was already on the disc. It's really hard to buy another Capcom game after that.
So if Capcon aren't porting RE6, UMVC3 or SF X T what is coming to Wii U? Don't tell me that hint about operation raccoon sh!tty is what they are doing? Come on we know they will port something. Who is placing bets?
Also Darkstalkers timed exclusive for Playstation is a pretty big coup for Sony.
I wonder how much of this is true.
I dont even care anymore. Screw you capcom, your games aren't worth the bother these days
After their treatment of Ono, I couldn't give two shits about any other Capcom games. They treat their most dedicated employees worse than they treat their customers and that's saying something. The quicker their upper management starts sweating the better.
