Batman: Arkham City

Working in an IT company
Just read this morning that the performance in DX11 version is sucking baaaaad. Devs are actually suggesting to use the DX9 for now until an update is released. TBH, this is seriously pathetic. I mean how can such a big issue make it past the testing & that too even after 5 weeks of its console release.

Here's the temp solution from WBGames:

"PC DirectX 11 Issues Please Read
We have received reports of performance issues from players of Batman: Arkham City on PC. After researching the matter, we found that running the game with DX 11 is causing the performance issues. We’re working on a title update to address this matter and expect to make it available in the near future.

In the meantime, a workaround for this issue is to run the game with DX 9 instead of DX 11. Instructions on how to turn off DX 11 are listed below.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience with your gameplay experience and thank you all for your patience as we work to resolve this issue.

Instructions for changing DX 11 to DX 9
The Launcher can be accessed on Games for Windows LIVE and Steam to change DX 11 to DX 9 in the Settings menu.
Change both DirectX 11 Features and DirectX 11 Tessellation to OFF.

Games for Windows LIVE
Start > All Programs > Games > Right click on Batman: Arkham City and select Launcher > Settings
1. Open the Start Menu
2. Select All Programs and then the Games folder
3. Right click on Batman: Arkham City and select Launcher
4. Choose Settings then click on the arrow next to DX options to change
Steam:
Launch Steam Client > Library > Right click on Batman: Arkham City > Configure PC Options
1. Open Steam
2. Select Library
3. Right click on Batman: Arkham City and select Configure PC Options
4. Choose Settings then click on the arrow next to DX options to change

At home. Away from my rig. :(

This is the bad part about coming back to home. No gaming, no internet.

Will try this one out, as soon as I get back to Hyderabad.

Everything maxed.only vsync off.No not in dx9. In my dual gtx580's i am getting avg 50fps sometimes 32.It seems sometimes the game freezes and the lip sync goes out.But still it is not that bad.
