I believe people are making multiple steam accounts for free. Then they are joining the Payday 2 Group. This way it goes up faster.

There is a forum on this in the official Payday 2 forums.

Eh, hopefully it will get better since they have more then 5 months remaining until release.

All thanks to DX12

Well if its not worthwhile to the multi-platform buyer. Then I guess you can say they are no longer a multi-platform buyer.

Why be a multi-platform buyer when a PC is better then both PS4 and X1 combined?

When looking at Steam's actual display stats, when adding higher resolutions in the mix, 57% of steam users are using 1080p or higher.

Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates have around 100 Billion between them in personal finances. This is pocket change for MSFT as a company.

Only thing that will fix this is new hardware. Xbox one is only SATA II with a 5400 rpm hard drive. Plus blu ray read speeds are terrible with cheap blu ray rom drive.

No software is fixing this.

Let's be honest. MSFT could buy SONY. NOT the other way around.

So what does it even matter? Xbox will be around for awhile. Like it or not. Its pocket change for them.

And they said the death of consoles was coming when mobile was peaking. HA. Look whats happening now. Best sales yet from any console so far.

Just appreciate what you have. Most people don't have such luxuries.

Its because they are no longer selling the x1 due to impending release of new xbox one eighty. That is capable of 1440p @60FPS!

Cause they don't need to. You'll see for yourself once you buy.

AAA sales do not make a game AAA. Payday 2 is nowhere near AAA. Its story is poor, graphics look like it was made for xbox 360 in 2007 (PC) and its the same thing over and over and over again.

The risk/reward factor for heists is so low too. You have to massively grind maps to gain experience to reach higher infamy levels. You need about 800,000+ exp points after level 90 and up just to gain a single point. Average job that isnt pro on DW is around 175,000 for the bigger heis...

A PC can pretty much do any resolution up to 4K. Consoles are getting further and further behind. They arent catching up either.

It really is sad that 1080p is still not the set standard for this generation of consoles, but both the PS4 and X1 tech is over 2 years old. Those AMD APU's came out so long ago. Such a waste. They both should have waited another year or so to make sure the consoles could handle 1080p at 60FPS on medium to high settings.

I wont ...

Win the core gamer?

Here is an idea: Dont make a console and say its next gen when it can barely do 1080P. Thats still not next gen, FYI.

Dont make a console and do a complete 180 on everything you previously announced.

BTW, the core gamer is on PC! Always will be.
1080p with ultra settings at solid 60FPS, check!
Maybe want the option to do 4k in the near future, Check!
Future proof if you know what you are doing, ...

These are bad screenshots to begin with but if you look at this years gameplay the side of the cliff is more of a smoothed out rock structure with cliffs in background turned into smoother hills. In last years trailer there is more detail in the rock and more depth in the cliffs leading to the background. The ground is also smoothed out in this years gameplay.

FYI - Capcom DID NOT lock the game at 30 FPS. You CAN play at 60 if you would like, but they said that animations and zombie movement was done at a locked 30.

So basically they are saying that you can play at 60 but they arent sure exactly how it will look or perform.

It's still weak sauce though. Maybe when steam holiday sale comes along ill buy but not for more then $5. You may get a fix though if the word spreads enough and Capcom gets enough negativit...

No compression.

I went from 28GB installed to 11GB installed. My hard drive went from 122GB free to 151GB free.

FYI - The appropriate way to abbreviate Gigabyte is GB. Lower case makes it Gigabit. Big difference.

I'm so glad i invested in a PC and not a next gen console!

This looks great!

So the PS4 is selling well but with a low software base. Would you rather a console that can do full 1080 with little games to play or a console that has a lot of fun games to play?

4417d ago 1 agree1 disagreeView comment

And thats exactly why I'll be sticking with my PC this generation. No need to play a game that wont run smoothly and just proof that these consoles were both rushed.

I can play any game at 1080 with sustained 60 FPS on at least high to ultra settings all day on any game with my PC. Steam is just so convienent.

PS4 not much better then PS3 either. Maybe better lighting but textures are almost identical. Not so much next gen here.
