Shamefully Bad Port, But Mostly Fixable

Which is tragic because this game is AMAZING. Hacking and camera researching is way better. Also has my favorite combat of the franchise. But now let me (hopefully) help you fix it. I recommend sticking with the original (comes with the remaster). Remastered version crashes way too much and was a lost cause. Your call though. So for fixing the original: warning: this is not a guaranteed fix and i still experienced 3 crashes in 16.5 hours. (less than ~20+ i had on the remaster) Run the game once to create this directory: C:\Users\*your user name*\AppData\Roaming\Bioshock2Steam in-game graphics settings: max everything except for directx10 detail surfaces (off) game resolution can be set to native resolution in-game without problems (i ran it at 2560x1600) In Bioshock2SP.ini (C:\Users\*your user name*\AppData\Roaming\Bioshock2Steam): optional: find AutoAim and set it to False *potential crash fix* Find "TextureStreamingMemoryLimit" and set it to 1024 or 2048 (MBs of VRAM for game to use)... but watch out, because too high can cause delayed texture rendering (textures are too blurry for a sec, then render properly... didn't bother me, so i just set it to 8192) *LIKELY CRASH FIX*: Play in DX9! gog galaxy: create a duplicate exe in Bioshock 2/manage installation/configure/features/ ... add -dx9 argument to new exe (label it Bioshock 2 DX9 or whatever) ... now launch game from additional executables -> whatever your new exe is called not using gog galaxy: Create a shortcut to Bioshock2Launcher.exe (BioShock 2\SP\Builds\Binaries)... Go to properties, add -dx9 at the end of the "target" field You'll know if it worked if directx10 in-game graphics setting is greyed out also a mouse sensitivity fix: Open User.ini, find these lines, then set them to 500 or something MouseX=IF_MOUSE_LOOK_ENABLED Count bXAxis | IF_MOUSE_LOOK_ENABLED Axis aMouseX Speed= MouseY=IF_MOUSE_LOOK_ENABLED Count bYAxis | IF_MOUSE_LOOK_ENABLED Axis aMouseY Speed= Hope this helps!

Same as the first remastered Bioshock...

The game itself can be entertaining for some but this "remastered" version is a terrible mess. Unfortunately this is the version sold on Steam full of bugs and crushes and remastered in a old way. It was not remastered to the level of a game from 2019. On Steam the game has mixed reviews, i dont know how come on GOG has 4.5 but from a technically point of view this doesnt worth more than 2.5 start or more than 5 euro.

Keeps crashing every 10 mins

Game is good but it keeps crashing more and more often as the game progresses. Why aren't they fixing this issue? Lazy a*s developers

A gem spoiled by instability

Bioshock 2 is among the finest shooters I've played. The mechanics are a satisfying sequel to Bioshock 1's, improving on the original's combat while introducing new enemies, weapons, and simple but important refinements. 2's combat feels like what the original's always should have been. Good combat is paired with a well written story. It features many similar elements to the original: a sociopolitical melodrama, driven by ideologues, delivered mainly through audio logs. However, I would say it's of a different kind than Bioshock 1: where the first was primarily the story of Rapture, told through some key characters, 2 feels like the story of a few key characters that happens to be set in Rapture. 2's story starts slow - you could be forgiven for thinking it's not going much of anywhere in the first few levels - but builds a steady head of steam, arriving at a well-constructed finale that outdoes the unfortunate lack of self-confidence 1 showed in its own final chapters. Unfortunately, Bioshock 2 Remastered does not offer a chance to experience all of this unfettered. The Remastered version was clearly not ready to come out of the oven. Even after some patching, the game remains unstable. For me it crashes every 1-4 hours. As you can see from other reviews, while experiences differ, a great proportion of players experience random and somewhat frequent crashing. It's a real bummer to get dumped to your desktop 30 minutes after your last save. If you play the Remastered version, make frequent use of the Quick Save - and consider outright ignoring the Remastered edition and playing the included Classic version instead.

Beatifull game but crashing ...

I had constant crashes, looking on forum there multiple solution. After while I found two possible workarounds: 1.) For me (AMD CPU + GPU) game crashes when using fullscreen, no crash in window mode. 2.) Limit/Set affinity for Bioshock HD process only for two CPU cores (Looks like this issue is related only to CPUs with more than two cores, hmmm :) Bonus: Use F11 for Quick Save My personal rating without crashes would be 5/5.
