Pop in has still not been fixed

>>323148401
so it's out?

>>323148401
Looks like the NPCs just pop in. Grass and such is detailed far way, bit odd. Give them feedback and it may get fixed

>>323148927
No it isn't.

>>323148678
OP here, when I say mouse support for menus, I mean mouse scrolling for menus. Sorry. The mouse can be used when in the menus and such but just not for scrolling.

>pop-in

>>323149337
Its only really for the NPC's but yeah, still here.

>unlike dark souls

no need to mention dark souls

Why does ddfags always feel the need to shit on other games

>>323149905
I said that because the PC version of Dark Souls was kinda broken at launch, don't need to cry about it.

thanks to god i didn't pre order it
if there no mod support its trash

>>323150081
It may be possible to mod the game, from what I have seen in an interview or something. One of the devs said it may be possible but they won't really be supporting mods.

it's obviously better than the console version, I just don't understand how pop-in that bad can happen on a pc version. It's actually worse than xenoblade which is running on a wii u.

PC Gamer: Between this release and Dragon’s Dogma Online, it seems like the series still means a lot to Capcom—where is Capcom at in terms of considering a sequel?

Matsukawa: Thanks for your interest in the series! The Dragon’s Dogma development team members often talk about the possibility of a sequel. We’d love to hear the opinions and feedback from players of the upcoming PC port of Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, as that will increase the chances that we can look into the possibility of continuing the series.

Eh, if it runs as well as it should, I'll just downscale it from some ridiculous resolution, I guess.

>>323150674

Will that be something they're likely to fix or even possible at all to fix with mods?

>>323150806
Only NPC pop in. Everything else is fine, watch the video

>>323150806
OP here, it must be an engine issue that just couldn't be bypassed when they were working with the code from the console versions.

>>323150837
If they get enough complaints there's an incredibly small chance they'll fix it, but more likely it will be considered a non-issue.

Modders might be able to fix it given enough time, but it depends on how much interest there is in it, since it won't have any official mod support.

>>323150981
There's a community manager there that posts, idiot. You know why MGSV got things like reload animations and such fixed? Because of the CM there that say complaints and people talking to him

I'm assuming this will be easily fixed in a config file.

>since it won't have any official mod support.
Oh lame.
So unlikely to get quest/weapon/armour/lewd mods?

>>323150304
I always thought this was due to them being random ass pawns on that particular road. I never really noticed it that much anywhere else. Do I just remember it incorrectly?

>>323151140
You would be assuming wrong.

For all we know there are no easily editable files outside the game to do such a thing. And there may be many many different variables that make changing it impossible.

>>323151168
Texture reskins likely. Entirely new items, maybe.

Everything else is near impossible or highly improbable.

>>323151934
He's just trying to be funny, the PS3 version was even worse than the 360 version. Like, 25-33% less FPS worse.

>>323152024
Even if we cant mod the game its hardly the end of the world.

The game itself is fantastic and there doesnt seem to be any issues with the port the console didnt have already

how much will i miss out if i pirate it instead of buying?
like i know that there are followers made by other people you can recruit and apparently the premade ones are shit.
but is there more to it?
are these pawns are also part of the world and by playing offline the world will be empty?

You will miss out on nothing. You can still get awesome pre made pawns that are offline.

>>323152132
You wont be able to whore out your pawn, or get others pawns, which means less choice in your party.

>>323152557
>will it be possible to just download other peoples pawn
they are online-only, you cannot have them without connection to server.

>>323151719
MT framework is a magicand works amazing on PC so it's probably gonna be good. Like DMC4

hm if pop-ins is really the only issue at launch, I have pretty big hopes for this. Look at tales of zestiria and what the modders achieved there (they even fixed fps cap).

it sounds gay but I really wanna support devs that put effort into their pc ports.

>>323152541

Honestly pawns are the best part next to fighting dragons, especially if people get really creative with them. If you don't give a shit fine but they're really great.

>>323152938
>This might be an engine problem.

That's probably part of how they got it open world, having things spawn in slowly. It's intentional and probably a good thing if you have a shit PC.

>>323148401
>think preload is up
>it isnt
I hate you.

>>323153087
I'd say that the pawns are Dragon's Dogmas best mechanical feature. Innovative as fuck.

They criminally under-tutorialized it. Sometimes devs need to learn that their attempts at an immersive world should not come at the expense of reliable information on mechanics.

>all these complaints about pop-in
>implying it fucking matters

Most people will be upgrading from the console version so they're already used to it, the major things that matter is a playable frame rate, improved textures, no letterboxing, and other bonuses that will make it all a much nicer experience. Sure it sucks that the pop-in is the same but it's hardly a game breaker and one that could get patched in the future.

They were, the devs even said they fucked them up on purpose because otherwise the game would be too easy.
Terrible design, instead of making AI harder they gimp controls.

>>323148927
It looks like it's just the pre-load that's available.

>>323153857
you fucking what

I had zero issues with controls

I think you are just bad at the game m8

>>323149967
That's still irrelevant to this launch.

>>323153928
>I think you are just bad at the game m8
Classic excuse for horrible design.
I have literally stopped playing right after the tutorial because of how ass the controls were, didn't even play a single mission or died once.
I'm just used to better controls in top down shooters, Alien Swarm, Crimsonland, Alien Breed, Alien Shooter they all have 10/10 controls.

>60 frames

It just won't feel right.

>>323153460
If there's ever a sequel and pawns are dumbed down because of lack of understanding, well, that would be a huge problem. One created by not explaining them, maybe. They should learn, copy you to some degree, but no absolute direct control. That is a cop out, like save scumming.

the fact that its made for controllers and controls like a latency filled turd with m+k

>helldivers controls just as well as them

Not at all.
I'm too lazy to explain, just read the 1k posts thread on the steam forums.

>>323155001
I've only played the game with a controller but I would imagine it's mostly the whole 'your actual line of fire trails behind where you mouse is' since in Helldivers the aiming/turn rate isn't snappy and is actually pretty damn slow on some weapons.

Compared to Alien swarm where your aim is snapped to wherever your mouse is instantly at all times.

>>323155170
>going to the steam forums
AHAHA fuck no

if its that bad you can easily tell me

>>323155162

not in my experience at all

are you constantly aiming your gun?

you do know that shit slows down your aim

Ignorant here, is dragon's dogma some sort of monster hunter or dark souls themed game?

constantly aiming is retarded in helldivers

>>323155292
It's basically what you'd get if you'd turn a CRPG into an action RPG while cutting out some dialogue and replacing it with some sprinkles of Monster Hunter.

>>323155292
It's an open world RPG with actually good combat and magic with giant ass bosses that you can climb on SOTC style

>>323155156
Sounds like just the Golden Age armour and JP dub have been excised.
Into Free's been gone since the original release of DA.

>>323155156
The original game censored male torsos. It was probably a weird japanese thing but they left it in all the releases. I know a lot of us are hoping it's gone in the PC release.

>>323155684
I thiiiiiink more prudish japanese females have problems with uncovered stomachs or nipples but don't quote me on that. So this game already was censored for their cultural expectation. I suppose there's a limit on how much male is too much.

>>323155763
It's the shota pawns that are censored, along with all the older men.

>>323156239

iirc they have wrappings on their upper torso like the women do when they're not wearing anything.

Because I hate using gamepad. I have one and played grand total of one game with it before I said "fuck this". That shit is not viable to use in any 3D game over KBM.

>>323157167
hacking away at a monster will feel better mashing a button than a key thats my opinion anyway but if you enjoy that go for it

there are just some games where controller is superior same for kb+m

>>323157167
This to be honest familia.
Even Dark Souls plays much better with kb&m if you apply the necessary fixes.

>>323157419

really?
I couldnt imagine playing an ARPG with KM/M

>>323156836
>Some bits of armour and clothing remove those bandages.
Those were added later, a couple a DLC.

It makes me think they had to sneak it in the back door to get around censors.

>>323148678
I guess that character pop-in is not a graphic setting but it is coded within the gameplay elements. Might be problematic to modify. -_-

There are bandits and I think you can kill anyone in the main town, you just get sent to jail

>>323157163
there's not a single qte in that video

are you retarded?

>>323157478
Maybe you should stop immagining and actually try it.
Protip, default controls are without exception always ass, but there's such a thing that's called rebinding to suit your taste.

>>323157815
I have and I could never get use to them so I jsut fell back to controler

>problematic
What's wrong with 'troublesome'?

>>323157737
The only genres you actually need that much precision with a mouse is FPS's and RTSs, and even then there are games that do it right.

Maybe you just haven't used a controller enough to not suck using the right stick.

>>323157860
> I could never get use to them

Have you tried rebinding them?
Have you installed DSmouse fix?
Maybe you are in general just not used to m&kb?

>>323157948
There's not reason for me to ever use less precise device in 3D games.

>pop-in
It's not pop-in if the NPC wasn't there to begin with.

>>323158143
Isn't that playing in easy mode?

You don't even require "mouse precision" in DD, stop fanboying your KB+M which is really bad for anything that isn't shooters and strategy games.

>>323157865
So you haven't played it.

>>323150304
it's just in the road, I didn't notice any serious pop-in outside pawns walking in the road or in thecapital when I played in my 360 back then

>can play with a flight stick

looking forward to that speedrun

>>323158751
OP here, yeah you can which is weird. I have it plugged in at the moment and I guess that the game will work with any controller you plug in.

>>323150304
Why's there no pop-in for the two npc at the back? this must be a bug easily patchable by the devs or just some weird engine limitation.

>>323148678
>No mouse support for menus

I can live with this but I don't understand why japanese games have this problem.

>>323158859
It wasn't pop-in. The NPC spawned on the road.

>>323158859
It has always been like this in DD, no clue why.

There are three different kinds of NPC there. The bandit in the back in an enemy, the one with the staff is a pawn, and the soldiers are actually NPCs but they have some fighting ability. They're all treated differently by the game.

One thing you should notice is that soldier in front "spawned" as soon as the other soldier disappeared from your camera's sight. Dragon's Dogma seems to render things based on priority and then if the player needs to see them, or if they can see them. If your pawn ever steps behind you its model will be despawned and then quickly redrawn as it enters your view again. There might be a limit set on how many soldier NPCs can be seen at once and how quickly they are all rendered.

>>323152024
I don't even remember pop-in from the console version.

>>323159724
Me neither, but I only have slight autism so no wonder really.

>>323158143
Analog movement is more useful then the extra precision in a game like DD

>>323157769
I think he meant can he slice and dice humans.

>>323159079
That's what DDO is for
