    Schedule I. Clearly no accepted medical use. High potential for abuse, because of that one Grey's anatomy where the guy shot himself for the scars as body art.

    What if you shoot yourself for the emotional scars?

    Hmm. Arkham Knight more or less runs fine for me. I only have a GeForce 670 FTW+.

    I wonder what kind of rigs the majority of PC Arkham Knight players were running the game on.

    SLIed and Overclocked PCs are having the worst time.

    AMD as always runs pitiful.

    The lag gets a bit worse later in the game. If you're not at the 2nd part of the scarecrow story line then it's probably pretty minimal.

    The FPS lag is the worst when you're doing missions out in gotham proper. Once you're inside it's no big deal.

    Sounds like it was just really badly optimized if it was optimized at all.

    Though I guess there is a nasty memory leak tied to some DRM as well.

    Witness is available, though. Hmmm. Seemingly forgotten classic with Harrison Ford as a cop named John Book who is also a carpenter (subtle) raising barns and offing a young Danny Glover while making eyes at Kelly McGillis in an Amish commune? That might do nicely.

    Work is sucking.

    I've got a huge project coming up that's going to be like 100% of my time for 3-6 months, but I'm entirely dependent on our developers getting a development / staging instance up with test data loaded. Which should have been done early May so I could meet my first milestone at the end of July, but it'll be at least July 13th before I can start working towards it.

    In the meantime, I can't really take any new tasks / projects on unless I can get them done by the time I leave for vacation on the 3rd because...well...I'm not going to be able to finish them.

    So I'm just dicking around with my normal day to day work done, just trying to look busy.

    I actually wish I had some work to do, but I've literally got two open tickets waiting on vendors and nothing else.

    I think the 'it was a test' thing is a fakeout. Steve Jobs stand-in is obviously super villainous and is kidnapping them or something. The conspiracy was fake but also real somehow.

    The thing Allison's doing next seems totally different. Hopefully it will work as well as Bad Machinery did when he changed from SGR to that. I dunno what the premise is, though, beyond it's a cop thing, so my excitement levels are not rising very high as yet.

    The Giant Days comic that's going on right now is fantastic, though.

    Yeah just crank everything down to low and leave the nVidia physx stuff off.

    "low" in the arkham games looks pretty good still since it's using the unreal engine.

    GTX 970, at 1080p the settings don't seem to make a difference, can't maintain steady 30 FPS much less 60. I've tried unlocking the frame rate (which WB says nobody should do because the game can't handle it) and can get over 100 at times, but it will swing wildly, sometimes dropping down to 15-20 while outdoors or driving. There are also a number of graphical effects that are just plain not included whether you try to force them in the ini files or not, but which exist and look great on console.

    I was about to say, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME ON PC, but then I remembered that they took it down so you can't anyway.
