I think my specs are somewhere between minimum and recommended: i3 3.2 GHz, ATI HD 5670 (512MB) and 8GB RAM. I'm hoping just to get a decent frame rate at 1080p on low/medium settings, reckon this is feasible?

Destiny gets so many viewers on his stream I wouldn't be surprised if Ubisoft sent him a copy early hoping that he'd play it. If not one of his viewers works at a game shop and hooked him up.
No, console footage. PS3 controller at 2.50 min.
The PC version looks miles better than that, you can't be fooled.
Send me an advance copy Ubi and I shall fraps like no one has ever frapsed before.
Ubi!
Perhaps they are just using the controller since it's connected via USB.
Still I'd love the PS3-version to look that good.
I don't see anything in that video that consoles could not handle.
Or perhaps PC at low settings.

I think this is actually part of the cover system in general.
EDIT:
Also, great multiplayer Firestorm footage and interview by the designer.

MOH: Airborne and MOH: Warfighter were average and below average games. The one thing they did right was their cover system. Glad to see FC3 is using a very similar system.

Agreed. It was a bit strange in Airbourne though, because you couldn't move while in cover and aiming down the sights.

Nice to see the cool death animations from the E3 footage was real, of enemies slipping and sliding as they're running and you're shooting them. Looks cinematic.

This is the PS3 version for sure. Some nice footage as well

Can I have split-screen co-op on the PC version? Pretty please?
legacyzero
Banned
Yep. Splitscreen Co-op is in for PC.
Although I'm not sure how that kind of thing works LOL

One person uses a controller, the other uses the keyboard maybe. Or two USB keyboards. I've never tried this though lol.
Me either. It sounds very impractical.

Praise the lawd. I don't have a single split-screen co-op shooter on PC but this will be great. I plan on using two controllers, most Ubi games have good 360 pad support.

Wait, there is underwater treasure? Sunken ships. Oh god. The only enemies are sharks and jellyfish, right? Right?

Or, you know, two 360 USB controllers. I play FIFA 13 on PC with my brother that way.

Sharks and Jellies aren't enough?!
fuck those things right to hell LOL

I don't want anymore! At least you can punch sharks, but can't do anything to jellyfish.
Huh, there's an animal in the game and you can not defend yourself against it?
You could. You had to hold capslock or whatever on PC. I dont know what button it was on consoles.

I love that animals are never tagged on your mini-map even when you've tagged them with your binoculars.
Surprise crocodile attacks look awesome in this game.

This is TOTALLY going to be the first map I make in the editor
Yup any time a review says that it's instantly thrown in the shredder so to speak. I will not give anyone the time of day who says that and tries to claim to be a professional reviewer.
Jesus, think he enjoyed it? Cannot wait for this game.

There wasn't SOMETHING you didn't like about the game? Like ANYTHING??
EDIT: not even the lack of vehicles in Multiplayer?????
Anything to get me away from this horrible Black Ops 2 Runnin-and-gunning-hip-firing-nade-throwing irritation fest.
Almost as bad as "The problem with gears 2 is that it is almost too good."

That's a real quote? My God
Love the Prodigy reference in that gamingbolt review btw

Well, when weighed with the majority of reviews it is obvious that it's being received as an extremely strong game pretty much across the board. It's not like this is the only gushing review, in which case, I can't just completely write it off because he did not have any bones to pick. I am inclined to believe that it just has so much good going for it, that some simply chose to overlook any minor niggles that may indeed be there.

Really? Does it have a cover system? I really like this bit of news, how does it work exactly.

It seems to be a bit like Killzone 2 and 3 if I'm seeing it correctly.

It was running on PC hardware, sorry.
I agree, and I'm someone who has done a 180 on this game and gone from really not liking it to reading/seeing things that propelled this game to the top of my most wanted list. I want proper reviews that bring up the flaws of a game, I'm tired ( see : extremely bored ) of reviews pulling my leg tossing out 9's and 10's like candy and myself invariably ending up noticing flaws and pitfalls in those games that could've and should've been mentioned in any kind of review. This year has had so many of them that it's not even funny.

Anyone has any youtube links with some cover action?
Yeah I'm more positive than negative on the game too right now but what is the point of glorified paid off PR reviews? I can find a big negative in every game ever made with relative ease. Reviewers who can't do that are not worth being called reviewers, they're just basically writing their resume for their future job in PR at one of these companies.
I need to know if my pc can run this game adequately. I like high resolutions but i dont really mind if my games have AA or Vsync etc. So long as it runs and looks nice.
What kind of resolution etc could my ageing ring manage for this game? I can run starcraft at full hd on ultra...(stupid comparison sorry)
ATI Radeon HD 4850
Intel Core 2 Duo Processor (3.ghz) E6850
4096 MB

I think the best example I have (that I can remember) would the games reveal

Fun starts @5:35
The cover style seems to be a bit sticky. So no button press that I can see (ala Gears of War). Looks great.

Somewhere between minimum and recommended I believe.

Anywhere to get the Steam version below retail?
