Bioshock: Infinite – PC Performance Analysis

Bioshock Infinite v2
Bioshock: Infinite has been released and it’s time to see how Irrational Games’ title performs on the PC platform. Bioshock: Infinite is the third part in the Bioshock franchise and this time around, Irrational Games did not repeat its earlier mistakes and decided to take advantage of the PC hardware. This means that the PC version comes with higher resolution textures than its console counterparts, as well as with some exclusive DX11 features. Bioshock: Infinite is a DX10/DX11 only title, and Irrational has also implemented an in-game FOV slider, so kudos to the company for at least listening to the PC crowd.

Bioshock: Infinite – PC Version Suffers From Auto-Aim Assist In Iron-Sights Mode

Bioshock Infinite v4
Bioshock fans, we got some bad news for you today. It appears that the PC version of Bioshock: Infinite suffers from auto-aim assist while entering the iron sight mode. At first, this bug was reported to be present once players plugged in a gamepad, however this issue can be spotted even if you’ve never used a gamepad (as we’ve encountered it ourselves during our playthrough). This issue/bug seems like a leftover from the console version, as this auto-aim assist is something common for most console games. In order to fix it, PC gamers will have to start the game with a controller plugged in, disable aiming assist in the Controller Options and unplug the controller. You can find a video demonstration below, and we should note – once again – that this bug is present even if you haven’t used a gamepad before. Continue reading Bioshock: Infinite – PC Version Suffers From Auto-Aim Assist In Iron-Sights Mode
