Warnings
- SafeDisc retail DRM does not work on Windows Vista and later (see Availability for affected versions).
Key points
- Based on the Xbox 360 and PlayStaion 3 versions of the game.
- Generally regarded as a bad and buggier port and suffers from occasional z-fighting on distant elements.
- The PC port is missing several graphical elements such as bloom, motion blur and some particle effects from its console counterparts, as well as having a massively reduced Draw Distance and LOD (Level of Detail) as many assets, such as trees in central park and objects on top of some buildings won't appear unless the camera is very close to them, resulting in severely worse presentation.
Availability
Essential improvements
Patches
- The 1.1 patch updates the game to the latest version. This patch fixes some graphics issues, adds more settings to the launcher (shadows, particle effects, special effects) and removes the 30 FPS cap.
- Depending on your system configuration, it may also introduce extreme stuttering.
