I'm sure it will use more resources, but will be faster on powerful systems. Gaming won't have increased performance, but they will have exclusive for W10 DirectX 12, so that will be their key to gamer wallets.
The experience seems very much like W7, from demos I've seen, the tiles are on start menu now.
I really hoped for a different setting of the game, JC2 was too cheesy and too repetitive. I'm still hoping this game will have a very good story, solid mechanics and difficulty, and lots of variety.
Although I, and I'm sure others too, would have wanted a heavy change up in the franchise, different main character, more complex gadget tactics and more missions involving stunt jumping between many cars that are feel more risky and epic, and this is the reason why I thi...
The site couldn't make viewing all images in full screen more annoying...
@mixelon From my experiences with PC games for over 10 Years, minimum requirements are the deadline, the one which if you don't meet, you won't be able to play the game.
If you do meet minimum, you will be able to play it at around 20-30fp/s on minimum settings, which for some people is okay.
Why would they block wallets of people who have low-end PC's? That would be idiotic from their point of view.
If the next one won't have as buggy and as bad performing game engine as Unity, I don't mind, since I probably won't complete Unity, ever, it's just not enjoyable with that performance and bug amount.
But one thing is for sure, I will let the reviewers test the performance of it first.
This is so deep.
Nothing can be forgotten, everything is related. One small issue can poison an entire game.
Oh, and it's not a small issue, performance of a game is the backbone of the game, that and all the other glitches and bugs.
They should have delayed the game and finished it properly, but they wanted to make it before holiday season, I want to see how that turns out for them.
It's very sad that powerful GPU's with 2GB VRAM and less get pushed back so hard because of the texture caching. I never thought I needed more than 2GB VRAM for 1080p. I bought GTX 770 last year, and now games want me to play on LOW TEXTURES?!?! This is an outrage.
Well I can use High textures, but then the game lags from time to time, which is really annoying...
Well the graphics and content is really great in AC:U. But the performance is what ruins it. And it's a shame, so much work has went to waste because of bad optimization.
Everyone can make food look good on plate, but making it taste right for everyone is the difficult thing.
Yeah, well the shop upkeep cost + advertising + worker fee in the stores result to this. I used to have stacks of game copies for PS3, it was nice that I could see all the games I've had, look at the cover art and game booklet (if it had one), unlike now on a screen.
Now the online key's are so cheap in comparison, especially for PC.
It has it's downs though, I miss the physical copies, and physically putting in a disc of a brand new game, now I have to lo...
wait... 30FPS for PC?!?! You are kidding me right?
While in some areas the textures are lacking quality, the overall look is pretty great. And it seems you have the wrong idea of what crappy graphics look like.
But in reality almost all the advertisements have falsely shown products. For example fast-food advertisements, you never will see that perfect burger that they advertise on screen in your hand.
You forgot to mention how fluid the mechanics look. Especially climbing buildings.
This is what annoys me the most in the recent years. So much premature criticism, and unnecessary hate.
Just leave it to yourself for now, until you get to see or play the final product.
For now I am just happy that it didn't look so absurdly easy as it was in previous AC games, I was killing everyone like flies with little effort, it was easier and faster to kill everyone than escape.
@ape007 You really are an Ape, aren't you?
Because drivers, smooth performance, ease of use and reliability... is this all waste to you?!?
You really think you buy a more expensive car just for the engine power and price/HP ratio? They also need to perform in turns not just drive straight and crash at the first turn.
I also have a 770.
Thing is, from all the performance issues there are with games, those hiccups and stutters are the most annoying one's. I always prefer steady performance over graphics.
The 970 seems like a pretty great performance improvement card over 770. And with much better power efficiency too. But I'm pretty sure that when Intel will release their next gen processors with improved power efficiency, and then year after that will greatly improve their ...
God dammit, I bought 2GB card instead of 3GB version for 1080p gaming, just because I was absolutely sure, at the time (1year ago), I wouldn't need any more for just 1080p.
Oh how these recent releases have wronged me...

Yes, but the fact that you have to open each image separately from main article page is not fine.
