You should add the FOV slider options to the 'Graphical settings' part. Sean confirmed them earlier this week IIRC.

That 8GB RAM minimum demand is confusing. I'm sure it's a very generous estimate. The only other game I have which uses 8GB of RAM (VR aside) is Mirror's Edge Catalyst which seems way more intensive than NMS based on what I've played of NMS on PS4. Edit: now I think about it, I'm sure descending to planets is really RAM-heavy.

Just Cause 3, Quantum Break and Tomb Raider gobble up RAM beyond 8GB too, probably more games by now I'm not aware of.

I really, really hope there's a FOV slider.

Download size should be 2.4 GB.

[kraspkibble]

Yeah that stuff doesn't bother me. I'm just wondering about performance. Is there ever any difference between the two versions? Also if it gets mods, are they available to both?

performance will be identical. you can mod games on both gog/steam.

I really, really hope there's a FOV slider.

there is. already been confirmed.

 

[Aztechnology]

Is there any place to get this for under $60?

Not that I can find. Which is ridiculous considering I can get it on PS4 for 20% off and have the ability to sell or trade it after.

Surprisingly small....

Should be the template for every PC Performance thread in the future, great job

Thank you! This is only my second PC thread. I did the GTA:V thread a few years back, and decided to pattern this one in the same format. Glad you like it

Looking to past PS4 / PC releases, I think it will run it pretty well. My Oc'ed gtx750ti (with an i5 6600) run SOMA maxed at 60 fps. I'm kinda confident that I'll be able to max it or something very close at least 30fps.

high five! This card has been amazing. Let's hope it also performs well on Deus Ex. It can do The Witcher 3 at 40fps with very good settings, so there is hope!

 

[dmr87]

no fov slider at launch? what?

Enjoy.

edit - FoV is in

 

[Dave_6]

I'll be anxiously watching this thread later. If this turns out to be a great port, I'll pick up the PC version as I've only put a couple hours into the PS4 one.

Sweet cheers dude.

$45 on GOG.

I found it for 50€ as a steam gift on some sites, but can't find it anywhere under that.
Normally I buy Steam games for like 25-30€ on release day D:

I might just get it on Steam so I can do a refund in case I don't like it at all

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Regarding FOV slider - Sean said they were working on it, however did not give a date for release.

Source ?

Because he posted a screenshot with FOV slider and AA options..

Good call about QB - I hadn't noticed with Just Cause 3 or Tomb Raider though. Don't always pay closest attention

 

[arts&crafts]

970 should be okay.

Bring on 4PM (when I am done work)

 

[Aztechnology]

Sweet cheers dude.



$45 on GOG.

Shows as $59.99 for me.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Yeah, 59.99€ for me.

 

[EVO]

Weird, maybe it's just Aus prices.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Weird, maybe it's just Aus prices.

That would be like 31€ for me.

 

[shiftplusone]

Please have ultra wide support

 

[EVO]

That would be like 31€ for me.

Just to clarify, I paid $61.99 AUD. It's advertised as $45.79 USD for me.

 

[Renekton]

USD26 in Malaysia Steam.

Our currency is eating gravel lol.

Just Cause 3, Quantum Break and Tomb Raider gobble up RAM beyond 8GB too, probably more games by now I'm not aware of.

Space Engineer was using almost 13 GB the last time I tried it.

 

[BigTnaples]

God I can't wait. Just drank some Anejo and NyQuil, going to power nap and wake up early to get some time in before my shift.


Hoping this runs at 4K 60 on my rig.
3770k
970 FTW SLI
16GB
W10

Also hoping there are some nice options to push, particularly for LoD.

 

[RamaTheVoice]

That would be like 31€ for me.

Instant Gaming has it for 49€, that's the lowest price I can find. (E: was. Sold out.)

Can't wait to see how it runs on PC!

 

[napata]

Just Cause 3, Quantum Break and Tomb Raider gobble up RAM beyond 8GB too, probably more games by now I'm not aware of.

Hmm?

Also I don't think it helps your case if you have to use games like JC3 and QB as examples.

 

[nBurbidge]

Nvidia released an article containing some screenshots of the settings menu and the game running at 4K.

 

[Captain_Wreckus]

what is amazing to me is that since laptops & gaming laptops are popular now, developers still won't publish system requirements or even just the graphic card requirements to run it on a laptop nowadays.

[Dave_6]

Nice!

 

[Future PhaZe]

looks like we might have a good PC port gents

 

[GavinUK86]

Oh yes please.

Are they popular? I think they're still an incredibly timh section of the PC gaming market no?

can't wait til 1pm EST. leaving work early so I can have the rest of the day with it.

Nice!

Will add this to the OP right now, thank you posting this!

FOV Confirmed! Also looks like an nvidia game ready driver next week ^_^

 

[Revolutionary]

I'm gonna need confirmation if the dithering/terrain generation is mitigated with a good PC. Gonna double dip if so.

 

[Captain_Wreckus]

Thanks for the link. Swim controls are kinda weird for the keyboard but I imagine that can be changed.

Has gamepad support! nice, may have to pick up a MS Bluetooth controller.

Excellent, it has Geforce experience support, makes me more confident now that it will run on my laptop.

4k support? a lot of gamers will rejoice with that...but 1080p is fine for me...only really have one eye anyways.

 

[noomi]

Andy, you around these parts?

Probably doubtful, but wondering if you are doing one of your guides for NMS?

 

[Sickboy007]

 

[Dave_6]

Interested to see how the 'pop in' is with the Generation detail slider on the highest setting.

 

[Captain_Wreckus]

Are they popular? I think they're still an incredibly timh section of the PC gaming market no?

Maybe they aren't, but I still wish developers list graphic card requirements for laptops as well. Makes it easier to decide whether to buy the game or not if they list it.

 

[heringer]

I wonder if it will be possible to switch from M&K and gamepad on the fly (to control the ship).

 

[CyberPunked]

Well there is a "generation detail" option there so....could be?

I wonder if it will be possible to switch from M&K and gamepad on the fly (to control the ship).

That's possible in so many games, it will be possible here I am sure.

 

[orava]

That FXAA does not look very good. Downsampling should do the trick though.

 

[franbatista123]

And just like that, my hype for the PC version is resumed.

 

[travisbickle]

Oh yes please.

The freighters look really nice in the PS4 version. I'm sure they'll look amazing in higher definition.

 

[Coolade]

Who of you will play like this?

https://twitter.com/NoMansSky/status/764060827833905153

I'm tempted to go out and buy 2 extra monitors right now...

 

[Vanmunt]

Just sold my PS4 copy to a work colleague, my 1080 is ready for this.
