This would have been a cool moment if they streamed the event. Not to say it's not cool here, but still, would have been a great little moment.

Well.... Ok then. Unexpected I guess. I'd buy this if if weren't on that shitty Windows app store.

Edit: oh wait it's only 30 bucks?! That's pretty decent actually.

I'm playing this on

GTX 970
i5 4690K
16GB RAM

full hd, pretty smooth, high settings

don't know much about MP yet since I cannot connect to any match since yesterday

After playing it for couple of hours, there's basically nothing new, compared to XO version. Yeah, you can play it in 4K, but requirements are absurd for this.

Solid but if you played GoW before, not really worth it unless you are really loving the series.

EDIT:

Ok, I have to change this "smooth" performance. I'm getting weird drops from time to time, especially outside :(

So does DS4Windows work with games bought on the Windows 10 store? I know it's really draconian with wrappers like SweetFX or Fraps.
 
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck ya, ALL ABOARRRRRRD

GEARS GEARS GEARS!

Oh god, going to relive the shit out of this game!

Ranked/EXE, add me! Busta SMurk

Nice. I have the same specs so glad to hear its smooth.

I dont see how the requirements for 4k are absurd though.

it's just the graphical leap is not big enough to justify having twice as powerful rig. just honest opinion.

Some owners of AMD cards are reporting troubles though...

Except 4k is 4x 1080p to along with that graphical leap...

Gsync doesn't work? Why? And you wonder why people refuse to use the Windows 10 store. Not buying this.
