Dead Rising 3 On PC Suffering From Performance Issues

"Capcom's third entry in the Dead Rising series isn't getting off to a great start on the PC. Crafty players who have already managed to get their hands on Dead Rising 3 on PC, despite it not being released in Western territories until tomorrow (it's out in Japan now), are reporting some serious issues with the PC port."

Hmmmm hopefully this is patched very soon because I want this game.

Magicite4266d ago

they listed gtx570 as minimum, the hell?

SonofGod4266d ago

Wow no wonder why this game struggled on XO. The game was only half-done.

gamernova4266d ago

Why would anyone on PC even buy this game? It's capped at 30 fps. Lazy work. And Capcom's ports are poop for PC. I maybe biased because I decided that I was never going to get another capcom game unless it was heavily discounted but it's for good reason.

FantasyStar4266d ago

I played RE6 on PC and it was a flawless experience. While I do agree that it is lazy work. Capcom ports in general are acceptable: not poop.

wallis4266d ago

It's good but resource heavy. The fps cap is a pain but can be fixed quite easily if anyone's curious.

Also mouse acceleration when aiming is a pain. Furthermore if you're suffering from frequent crashes throughout the game it might be due to a problem with nvidia drivers. I rolled back to geforce 335.23 and found that my crashing stopped.

Until then I hope this game does get patched. I hate running older drivers, and while this game is very resource heavy it's sooooooo much God damned fun. So if you can run it, I'd recommend it.

Gamer19824266d ago

wont be patched as its a direct port rather than a decent one.. Soon as the exclusive deal ran out they rushed it to market to make there money as they are in trouble right now capcom and no doubt they wanted to get this out ASAP as they didnt sell as many copies as they would have liked on xbone thanks to low sales compared to ps4. As at launch like MS they assumed Xbone was going to be the more popular console. A few devs no doubt did like titanfall devs.

Nodoze4264d ago

Proving why exclusive 3rd party deals are a waste. I hope that devs have learned this lesson...next up is Insomniac. They are going to get burned, followed by Crystal Dynamics.

With a vast majority having shifted to PS4, it simply does not make sense.

Just ask Crytek, and Capcom.

Also ask EA about the HUGE missed op with Titanfall.

W8 what b8 m8? Or have I joined too l8?

sorane4266d ago

Weird cause it's running fine for people over on gaf.

Seems it can chug a bit during cutscenes, but it's still running much better than the Xbox1 version and at much higher settings.

DevilOgreFish4266d ago (Edited 4266d ago )

I got a chance to enjoy this on my PC today. It ran pretty good, 60 fps with some dips at ultra settings. The interesting factor is that the ultra settings barely feel "Ultra", nothing seems to improve the textures. it's also awkwardly brighter than the Xbox one version, at default it seems.

The system requirements were sort of hard to believe, but my performance did drop when waves of zombies started to accumulate. the specs could be accurate, it is a sandbox so it's easy to see environments getting filled up. i'd still wait for a patch for better gauging results.

hkgamer4266d ago

wasnt this suppose to be capped at 30fps due to how the engine worked? i remember hearing capcom say that this would be 30fps and if you do decide to unlock it then you may come up with some issues.

or did they change it?

Gamer19824266d ago

I play on high a lovely 1080p and it looks lovely.. Better than xbox one version and no issues on my £200 graphics card.. Runs smooth, its locked at 30fps but unlocking leads to major issues so i'm not unlocking.

This really needs a re-release. Enjoyed all 4 games with 3 probably being my second favourite.

ocelot07271d ago

It once was. But the recent DR1 remake took that spot.

Christopher271d ago

It's 2013! I'm on my Xbox One and streaming from my laptop to my chromecast! Life couldn't be better!

TheColbertinator270d ago

Now I can stream my Xbox One from my TV to my phone to my tablet while I'm inside my refrigerator.

monkey602271d ago

It's not even the best one 🤨

ocelot07271d ago

Surprised this didn't get a Series S/X boost. I believe it's still locked to 30fps. Then again so is the PC version until you go into the .ini file and change it.

MetroidFREAK21271d ago

Genuinely surprised this still hasn't been ported

What Happened To The Dead Rising Series?

Over the last week, Jake has been going back to the Dead Rising 2 Off The Record remaster and has been an absolute blast. When he was 15 he first got his Xbox 360 and Dead Rising with it, it was unlike any other experience. It made him wonder though, what happened to the Dead Rising series.

Interesting timing. This retrospective was released just a few days ago: https://youtu.be/Et-cKSrWuc...

Darksonic222106d ago

Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁

InklingGirl2105d ago

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the title.

MadLad2106d ago

Complacency and new teams who didn't understand what made the series special.

Darksonic222106d ago

Seems like there was just a ton of infighting aswell and so many more issues. Honestly sadly Dead Rising 5 before it was cancelled sounded nothing like dead rising, nothing learnt from. Dr4 at all.

ColdSin2105d ago

DR4 should have not been made anyways. DR3 closed everything nicely.

darthv722105d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad2105d ago

They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.

RamRod882106d ago

They took away the depth and charm of the game that made it fun and interesting, and made it into a generic zombie killing game.

DeadManMMX2106d ago

This was the series the got me to buy an Xbox 360. The first one was so good. It still had horror elements. As it went on it became kind of a parody. Never forget getting Zombie Genecider achievement and then restarting the game to get the Mega Buster. That thing was monstrous against enemies.

Gamerking822105d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18892105d ago

haha yes it may....good one.
