You realise PCs can screenshot of course? No idea why you felt this "arty" picture was necessary.

GMG need to get their pre-order up so I can compare prices :(

So on a scale of 1-10 those who bought GZ on steam/PC already, how upset are you that you essentially get the game for free with preorder now?



regardless, this is great for PC gamers too.

Not very, I got the game for $9 on Nuveem, and GZ is already going free for people on XBL and PSN during the summer. I have some friends who would love a copy of the game so I might just give it to one of them, but I won't complain. Not to mention that GZ is basically a required prologue to TPP, makes sense to bundle them on a pre order sale. You also get bonuses in TPP with a 100%'d GZ file (Sneaking Suit camo, soldiers, etc).
 
"As a result of the updated timing, console versions of METAL GEAR ONLINE will go live on October 6th, with the PC version set to release in January 2016."

WTF Konami??!!!

If this runs as well as Ground Zeroes, then I'll be fine with my 670. Although I'll probably have to lower the texture resolution with it being open world and all.

Why not just grab it from the buy sell thread here? Got my steam key there for $35. Doubt you will get cheaper than that at GMG
 
I like this perspective more. I don't play on PC myself, but the simultaneous release date for console and PC seems way bigger than the delay of MGO to me.

Looks cool to me. Better than always seeing the same predictable screenshots. It's your own choice what constitutes "arty" or pretentious or whatever.
 
Staff member for your base, an emblem you can wear and idk what the video is.

Yeah but, Mother Base Staff 3 is what? one staff member for mother base? 3? Does it makes a difference? how about the emblem? is it a game modifier or just a cosmetic patch?

Patch. It's a staff member, there are like 4 possible I think, you get number 3.
 
I'm still getting it on PS4 for, I'm going to assume a much healthier playerbase on PS4 and much earlier MP access. But I'm also getting it on PC later down the line if theres some interesting mods.
 
System Requirements

MINIMUM:
OS: Windows 7x64, Windows 8x64 (64-bit OS Required)
Processor: Intel Core i5-4460 (3.40 GHz) or better; Quad-core or better
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 (2GB) or better (DirectX 11 card Required)
DirectX: Version 11
Hard Drive: 28 GB available space
Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card

RECOMMENDED:
OS: Windows 7x64, Windows 8x64 (64-bit OS Required)
Processor: Intel Core i7-4790 (3.60GHz) or better; Quad-core or better
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 (DirectX 11 graphic card required)
DirectX: Version 11

The recommended CPU is more than likely totally overkill. A modest Core I5 should do just fine.

My 4770k weeps.


What's up with these inflated system requirements lately?

Yep! How'd you guess?

Viewing angle. ( ͠° ͜ʖ ͡°)ง

I went from an IPS --> TN (G-sync) --> back to a new IPS this past week. I thought G-sync was amazing but the panel was pure shit so I returned it for a normal monitor. Maybe in a few years when IPS displays with G-sync don't cost a fortune I'll jump back in, but its nothing I really need atm.

EDIT: see?

Cause' of that sexy brightness / colour at that angle.

G-sync TN pleb here :(.

Eh, it's a cool pic.

My PC has no problems with this but I think I'll buy it for PS4 anyway.
I'll want to platinum this and for me collecting trophies feel for some reason more valuable on PSN than Steam since you can't cheat.

Also because of online.
 
Will a 560ti suffice for minimum specs?

Like others have said, the low-end specs are nearly identical, if the game does indeed perform as well as GZ, you can at the very least expect to be able to match my results:


I'm running a i5-2500k (running @ stock) & GTX 560.

The Ground Zeros PC OT is probably a good place to check out for anyone wanting to see where their system might fall. Specifically for you Pungza, I found this post


The rest of the SS I took while testing it out the 1st day. I apologize for not taking a picture of the settings page :(

What are the chances that they are pushing out this PC version at release so that it can sell as many copies as possible before bad press and negative word of mouth about unseen portions of the game start to get out?

*takes off conspiracy theory cap*

*puts on hype cap*

Glad I got that off of my chest.

I ran Ground Zeroes on a Laptop with:

i5-2430m 2.4ghz (dual core)
nvidia gt525m 1gb
4gb ram

At the laptop's native 1366x768, it runs on a mixture of medium and low at a practically locked 30fps. The only dips come from using binoculars at the furthest distance with lots of action going on.

560ti fine
