Arkham Knight on PC Won't Go back On Sale Until Spring?
In an internal email sent to EB Games staff members it is stated that, according to Warner, the PC version of Batman: Arkham Knight will not be fixed until Spring 2016.
EB Games has already removed all PC versions of the game from stores but — as a result of this news — now intends to send all PC copies of the game back to Warner.
“As previously advised,” read an internal EB Games email, “we have stopped sales of Batman: Arkham Knight PC while Warner and Rocksteady work on addressing performance issues with the game. The latest information from Warner is that the updates won’t be available until Spring. Due to this we have made the difficult decision to recall all PC stock from stores to return to the vendor until an acceptable solution is released.”
“Spring” is vague, and refers to Australian spring which is only two months away, but the delay on a fix has been deemed significant enough for EB Games to return all stock back to Warner locally. That in itself, seems telling.
Rocksteady has released a small fix for the PC version of Batman: Arkham Knight, but none of the major performance issues have been addressed. Sales of the game are still suspended on Steam.
We’ve contacted Warner locally, and will update if they respond with an official statement.

The game is already dead for PC crowd, even if they optimize it perfectly, the fact that a game like this can be released is beyond disturbing, and should encourage all to ignore it like a flame, shame i was waiting for it, was.

I think it's just gonna stop people pre-ordering (and instead pushing people to be buying in sales rather than on launch day!), and they're not gonna like that, so I think they'll get their sh*t together and start releasing games that are more close to be being perfectly finished, I think we've got to the crest of the wave in terms of piss poor quality releases.
