Hey, they just released this game out of the blue.
Stranger things have happened.

Not sure you could force AF, you cannot select the game in the Nvidia control panel because there is not .exe.
Clearly a mistake, surprised to see HBAO+ though.
Oh nice, not a big deal then as long as gameplay works fine.
So we are stuck with 4xAF ?
Magnificent news and my deepest congratulations to The Coalition for having overlooked such a crucial PC feature.
Fantastic !

Then don't buy it
You should probably do maybe two seconds of research before shitposting.
1) It's a full remake of Gears of War 1
2) It's 30 bucks
What if you force AFx16 globally? That could work.
If there is no .exe that won't work.
Oh well hoping for them to get their shit together at some point.
What a bunch of fools.

It's there first pc port give em a break
Still way over priced to me, should be like £20.
Then don't buy it
Can't even if I wanted too, not part of the Windows 10 closed system yet.
I'm not shitposting, but thanks for being an asshole.
So it's still the exact same game with prettier graphics? Still overpriced.
No couch co-op is the cherry on the top, removing key features and charging the same price is scummy.
That's your fault for expecting an Ultimate Edition to have everything.
I was going to try and get it on the cheap with regional pricing, but after hearing that I will just laugh as this game fails miserably.Brerlappin

"I wanted to cheat my way into getting it for next to nothing but I can't so instead ill laugh as it fails"
....fuck outta here with this shitty attitude man.
There is no break to give. AF is a very simple feature and surely The Coalition's personnel have worked on PC projects before.
This is raw incompetence, nothing more.
I see. I've always thought the global settings applied to anything running on the GPU, be it games, apps, or what have you. That's how the performance profile "Adaptive/Prefer maximum performance" works, anyway.

I'm sure they will. They didn't release the first one for no reason. I expect a Gears 2 remake to be announced at E3.
A sale is a sale, and MS is absolutely going about these releases in the worst way possible. Should I mention their "shitty attitude" in making the original GoW on PC have an expiration date and it not being able to played legitimately after some superficial date? I will stay and watch them make all the wrong moves, thanks.
No.
LOL.. that avatar change.

No it doesn't restart. The display of the progress bar is buggy though. Just start the download and let it go in the background.

What's really disgusting is that Microsoft is setting US prices on the Bosnian store, we're not even close to that economic standard.

Ease up, dude... That's incredibly disrespectful. There's someone from Coalition in the threads right now helping out.
People are used to their GMG and CD Keys which don't apply here. Spend dat money.
Not getting such basic features right warrants this 100%. I don't care they are "helping out", I judge the product as it is and very low AF is simply unacceptable to me.

Probably not, UNLESS they get 360 BC on PC wholesale.
Nothing says it will, either.
What the point of 4k if texture filtering does not follow ? None.
They are incompetent.

Something tells me you just want to be outraged right now, so outrage away.
Same for steam, I'm well off so I routinely buy games for my friends here in Croatia(else they'd just pirate) because for some reason games should be priced the same as Germany and not low income regions like Ukraine, I know your pain friend.
I'll voice my complaints if I deem it fair, which I do in this specific case.
SliChillax

You're right about being outraged but offending developers seems too much, you'll get banned. State your complaints in a civilized matter.
Pathfinder
Member
One can voice complaints perfectly fine without flat out insulting the developers.
That's just bad form, man.
The game is grossly overpriced for the content held in the game. I would say MS is more disgusting to release this for more than $15.

No, the purchase button is greyed out. But there's a price and the USK logo so who knows, might get unlocked later.
Fair point, both of you.
I'll look for more eloquent synonyms next time.
Amateurish sounds less harsh to me.

Wat, I really didn't expect this lol. Don't know if I'm ready for this yet tbh. Hope the port is good, I'll probably get it sooner or later.

Why do we still have this thread running when the OT is already up?
Yeah there's some stuff going on in here that I think is a bit much. I mean I get that Windows 10 store is not ideal, but some of this is beyond the pale.
Less so than expecting $30 for this broken, overly restricted and unfinished game, so scum begat scum. Back on topic please.

The potential problems that the windows store can cause already becomes very apparent.
Something as simple as AF which could have been easily fixed if you could force it yourself. Now you have to rely on the developer patching every little thing because you can't fix anything yourself.

Defending regional manipulation and wanting MS to fail is incredibly petty. $30 is nowhere near "disgusting". It sounds like you have some personal issue with MS.
That alone makes me very worried. AF is no minor feature.
