BlazBlue Calamity Triggers Bad PC Port(s)

In June of 2021 I bought BBCT, the first BlazBlue game. Unfortunately things did not work the way they were supposed to which led me to a rabbit hole full of ports and box arts.

Hey if you're watching this on the day it was uploaded it would be my birthday!

Always good to see SOMEONE talking about BBCT in the year of our lord: 2022

it's straight up just it randomly launches pseudo locked at 30 or it runs regularly at 60 *entirely randomly* and the only way to "reroll" is to restart your computer.

"is this a day where BBCT will let me play it?" is a real question and it's awesome. i love old pc ports

Thats just the surfice take in terms of issues. For starts, no japanese audio during the arcade ending quotes, no music during story mode, an extra 6gb of extra date which is pointless(there is a steam guide on how to delete it btw) and no multiplayer. What worked for me when the game ran at 30fps was just restart the game and it worked flawlessly afterwards. CSE has this sort of issue too and the fix is the same :)

Love the video and love the persona music in the background

[lilsoonerfaninmo]

I genuinely have to wonder what the issue was, as the game always ran at 60 fps for me

This was my first version of Blazblue I ever played. Thankfully, it was super cheap and the game looked so cool I was convinced to buy Centralfiction after playing just a little.

[Dragonrider]

I played Centralfiction and it ran great on my PC but Calamity Trigger runs pretty bad for me too but I've seen videos of it running smoothly so it's gotta be a settings thing
EDIT: I've discovered it helps to restart the computer

[NendoDeluxe]

God damnit, I think my PC was running it bad...

[djcwittz]

Pray for this man he chose to buy this game on PC instead of any other platform

[SirIsaacFortesque]

Revisiting this and the Accent Core tier list since I recently got CT on PS3 and AC on Wii. (Granted AC isn't + or +r, so it doesn't have Justice and Kliff playable but what can ya do?)

Hey man I'm ngl I think central fiction rollback official update happened the keyboard compatibility went to hell for me where either I keep jumping or I can't go left or right it happens to me after playing for about 30 minutes

I remember when i tried the game out it would freak out if i minimized it and brought it back (or alt tab out of it while on fullscreen, forgot which of them), which would bug the game out until i resterted it. Really dodged a bullet by getting the 4 game pack instead of just CT

[superpan]

I've played BlazBlue Calamity Trigger on Steam and it seems to run at 60 fps, even on Steam Deck.

[ericksamuelhernandezvelez]

I had the luck of not have the game locked at 30fps but I had the error of the characters disappearing when I minimized the game.

[Donfakincook]

Calamity Trigger has been such a problematic game for me to boot up, not only does the issues you described perfectly were the ones i had with the game, but the fact that even in 10 or more years the problem has never been addressed makes me think that at this point its just very uneasy and uncomfortable to play, nor will it have a solution

The only option we are mostly left to do is to buy a PS3 or Xbox 360, but even then it would beg the question if it would be really worth going through the hassle in the first place. It sucks that the first entry of the series ended up being a rather shitty port on PC

[michelgiacobino]

Thx for your video, instantly refunded the game 🙂

[heardofrvb]

You do know there's a guide in the Steam community that fixes the problem, right?

[BrecciBR]

I just booted the game for the first time, trying to get into the franchise, man it was horrible, looks like I'll have to skip this one

[brooks]

why dont you just, idk, set it to 60fps? I played the steam version for the first time just the other night and it was a totally fine port. Ran at 60fps @4k, several AA options, etc etc. Seems like a giant waste of time to make a whole youtube video just to say you dont know how to change settings...

[bakufan]

maybe it is ur PC is why the game runs like crap get a better PC maybe u played on a patato laptop and not on a ture gaming machine if ur gonna say ur PC was made for gaming maybe cuz it has outdated parts
