What a load of shit lol I knew the recommended specs were gonna turn out to be a crock of lies to but to stop it launching? Fucking hell.

What about all the other stuff people run in the background chewing up RAM? Just having Chrome, Steam, Skype, Spotify and Teamspeak open and and my memory usage is at 5.86GB before I even start a game. If I close off Chrome before I start I end up at 3.27GB.

That seems awfully high. I'd be running something similar with Firefox and I'm nowhere near that sort of usage. Closer to 2.5GB for all that.

There's gotta be away to bypass the system check that stops the game from launching.

This is such a shit move but at this point I have no sympathy for people that spend money on CoD, you're just asking to get fucked over.

16GB was, and still is, overkill for gaming and frankly a waste of money.

This is true.

The game also doesn't runs all that well. I've got a superclocked 780 and on max settings @1080p 2xTXAA it drops to low 40s whenever I look at an area like this.While something like BF4 MP, I can get a constant 60FPS at maximum settings and 4*MSAA @ 1080p
.

What? Battlefield 4 looks amazing single player on my 780 max settings and it runs at a solid 60 with almost all settings on Ultra. This game doesn't even look half as good.

WTF is going on?

It cost me like 120$ to get 2 8gb sticks. That's like a drop in a pond compared to other upgrades.

next gen coming, publishers try to artificially push people onto the new consoles. sad but not new.

I'll believe it when I see it. The chances of gamers needing more than 8GB is extremely unlikely.

I guess your definition of what is good value and mine would differ.

Every gen PC gamers need roughly 4-5 times the RAM available in current gen consoles just to run games at max settings. So considering that both xbone and ps4 have 8gigs ram, expect PC versions to require around 32 gigs ram.

SMAA and TXAA in this game both cause horrendous amount of blur, and I'd assume FXAA would too by the very nature of it.

phazedplasma · Nov 4, 2013

So this game is basically just high res textures, a dog and fishies right?

SMAA doesn't cause really any blur whatsoever when correctly implemented. It is very different in comparison to FXAA and TXAA in terms of its clarity.

Ah yes. Curious, which SMAA is it? 2Tx? 1x? something else?

No but I'll check it out, thanks!

Shadows seem rough!

Waaghals · Nov 4, 2013

There is nothing wrong with next gen games requiring 6gb of RAM.

The problem is that this game isn't a next gen game. Heck, it isn't even a good looking last gen game.

Self_Destructive · Nov 4, 2013

Looks good.. I think people are just hating just to hate...

Sure, you could argue that with the financial backing that this series has, it probably could look better, but saying it looks ugly is a step too far in the other direction imo.

Visualante2 · Nov 4, 2013

If there's one game I would expect to be a decent port each year it's Call of Duty. Reflects poorly on Activision and the developers imo.

LMAO @ specs myopia. Get off your high horse rich enthusiasts.

MidgarBlowedUp · Nov 4, 2013

So can't you just setup a ram disk and trick the game into thinking you have 6GB or is there a fish AI dis-abler setting?

You mean virtual memory? Have fun with lots of disk caching and stuttering in that case.

I like how they deliberately made the last-gen wolf worse than was actually possible.

They didn't label them as last-gen and next-gen, that's added by Dennis. The "last-gen" wolf is simply the base model without any fur on it. Obviously once you start masking it in fur you don't need as much detail in the base model, hence why it looks rather basic.

Stallion Free · Nov 4, 2013

The texture work is quite nice in Sethos' shots. 4k redeemed.

Yeah the IW COD's always ran great even on my laptop. Treyarch's were always a bit more intense

Oh I'm not doing it. I don't even like COD unless it's in the form of a fish sandwich.
Just saying if someone really wanted to play the game on pc but didn't want to buy ram I suppose they could create a ram disk.

And yet a lot of folks report that they get slightly better performance with 16GB over 8GB. Not sure why but I've seen it a lot.

I have 16GB for non-gaming reasons, but RAM is cheap. NO RAGRETS
