Holy shit, Ubi. Why so heavy on the CPU?
I feel the right time was 2 years ago (at least for this type of very demanding title). But we can agree that it's a good thing that it is finally happening.Steam suggests that 75% of windows gamers are running 64bit OSs. Most of those who aren't are playing on PCs that would never run this game, even if it was a 32bit application. Seems like the right time to ditch 32bit.
Yeah, I was considering an upgrade to 24 GB (from 12) when it was so cheap, should have done it. I just couldn't see a point back then.With this and RAM prices continually creeping up.. Glad I went ahead and got 16GB of RAM 2 years ago when it was so cheap.
Get a job or get a console~!I want to play this on pc, but I don't have a good enough one. Can one of you guys spec me one of those $500 gaming pcs I hear so much about. I'm probably gonna need an OS so don't forget to include that in the price~!
I can't wait join the master race!
I believe I paid less than $50 for 16GB of RAM last year. I don't really know what the prices are now, haven't looked in a while.
Think I'll be getting PS4 versions of multiplats and waiting for the next-gen dust to settle before building a monster gaming PC now.
Yeah, all of the people going crazy over specs must have old or low end machines.Seems about right, I got my current mid-range PC almost 2 years ago and I beat the recommended specs. Better than I expected for a next-gen game.
The feel of 480p 15fps.Welp time to get the PS3 version then
So the fall of PC gaming begins.
Funny thing is this will probably be the norm in a year or so for pc gamers
I have a Q6600 so I guess I'm fucked.
It's not really all that heavy. E.g. a 3 GHz quad core Phenom is somewhat more powerful than the 8 core 1.6 GHz Jaguar in the consoles, but not excessively so.Holy shit, Ubi. Why so heavy on the CPU?
Different people. Real 90s PC gamers are used to this happening every 2 years, not every 7.exactly. for years pc gamers were moaning how current-gen games under-utilize their poweful gaming machines, now watch dogs has requirements for rigs like this and again complaints...
Wat
I fail to see how any game can even use more than 4GB of ram
lol first time I won't meet minimum specs in 7 years.
So I guess we're not getting the PS3, XBOX360, WIIU version.
This is why I use consoles. High-end PC gaming is without a doubt in a league of it's own, but I have no time for keeping track of specs.
Erm, you don't have three seconds a year to check the specs?This is why I use consoles. High-end PC gaming is without a doubt in a league of it's own, but I have no time for keeping track of specs.
hahahha claiming poor optimization when it's not even out, we're pc gamers we expect our games to look twice as good as yours but still run flawlessly on a q6600, gtx570, when they don't it's obviously laziness on the dev side apparently

Can't wait for the digital foundry comparison videos. Current gen versions are going to look pathetic.
I'm assuming so.I suspect the games are actually going to be redesigned somewhat.
This is either the markings of a horrible port, or an AMAZING looking game. Let's hope for the latter.
Looks like its finally time to retire my Q6600, had a hell of a run with that CPU.
Probably build a new pc sometime next year.
Yeah, I lived that (and having less disposable income than I do now). It makes these "issues" seem somewhat comical in comparison.Having gone through that era, It's sort of crazy that I have been able to get generally high settings (at 60FPS in 1080P) in 2013 titles on the PC that I built just before Dragon Age Origins came out, other than an upgrade to a GTX 560. Even moreso when you consider that my PC was only $700 when I built it. In the late 90s, you had to drop $1000 to build something that barely met minimum specs for more than a year.
I have a 5 year old processor (i7 920 @ 3.8 Ghz) because nothing so far would have benefited from more than that, and because Intel's performance progress on the desktop has slowed to a crawl since the core i7 series. Seriously, I blame Intel. Or physics.Not sure why anyone half way serious about gaming on a PC would have 5 or 6 year old processor.
I feel like there are more people complaining about people complaining in this thread than people complaining, TBH.Why are people complaining when developers are finally utilizing technology that are decades old?
games that use more than 2GB RAM and 2 cores will make me cum
I'm also planning for a Haswell-E build, and I have the vague fear that I might never have to change it.Just start saving money, because Haswell-E will be released in Q2 2014 and will bring Haswell CPUs in 6 and 8 cores configurations
I'm definitely buying 8 cores/16 threads CPU, not only it will be glorious, but i wont have to change it for next 7 years.
