I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
So the PC version is just a code and not tied to the Live account that bought the game? Might try to go halfsies with a friend who has a PC.

Nope, but I will wait for a DF analysis in order to see if the Xbox One is the version to go in terms of solid performance
I'd be surprised if the codes aren't account-bound. Then again, GFWL launched with the mother of all oversights (any GFWL game would consider any GFWL key valid and there was no product registration), so, upon reflection, just a little surprised.

I would count on Remedy here. Remember they introduced a vsync switch on console with AWAN, they know their optimization.
Yup, I would not count on an "extra copy".

Could I play it, at least in minimum, with a gtx 960 4Gb and 16GB RAM?
Nobody knows the settings and "real requirements" yet, but if I would have to look into the magic crystal ball - I would say your chances are pretty good that you can run the game and make it look good too.

What's your definition of 'play'?
Because some folks just can't 'play' on sub 60fps. You'll be fine if you're not aiming for 60fps on high settings.

If I preorder on the Xbox one store in Norway do I get charged now or when the game is released? Anyone know?

Hope you're right and it would be good for people planning to play it on console. I know Alan Wake had relatively good performance on 360.

Yeah, I'm fine playing at 30fps some games, like in consoles
If i'm understanding right you also have to add there no piracy, which seen the PC situation with also 3DM claiming to have cracked latest Denuvo it's a good thing, and Microsoft need to do that to not have game sales reduced by piracy...
Also can't use sweetfx? I want to play the game as it was designed originally not with alterate colors and light, especially in a game like Quantum Break...some on screen display actually work....are patch really slower to release? The only example right now is Tomb Raider, so even if that is true they can always fix that and it's not like the patchs don't arrive at all... so i don't see really huge problems or limitation, especially compared to the pros like no piracy and better sales for Remedy and Microsoft which means more likely new games like this, and also Achievements and save state across Xbox One and PC
Guys if you are worried about being able to play the game look at the minimum specs not recommended. Minimum is likely for an x1 equivalent experience. With the game then scaling up massivley in quality to require the recommended specs.
Also do we know if this will be on steam yet? Win10 exclusive should just refer to it being a dx12 game.

That's great for you I guess. I'm sure many PC gamers will detest the closed nature of apps. As for piracy, let's not go there.
And vsync issue could be a big issue for many.
No confirmation either way as yet.
I know right, with that pitiful build of yours, the game is really going to struggle...
Not worried at all, i Know they always like to shoot high, those recommended could be for 60fps and perhaps higher resolution than 1080p,i'm confident that my Gtx 980 4GB, i7 4770k and 8GB of ram will handle it maxed out at 1080p, or at least way better than Xbox One could run it

You mean triple buffer vsync by virtue of it being windowed? It's still possible for an app to have traditional double buffer vsync be its own user setting.

It depends how rigorous MS are going to be. They can prevent people from buying the game, if the PC they are buying from, doesn't meet the minimum specs.

Where does it say, Ultra is for 4K?

Doesn't. That's an assumption based on how other games have based their ultra specs on 4k.

I'm a bit over the new recommended specs. Going with this I think I should be able to reach high(ish) settings @ 1080p and 55-60 fps, and that would be okay. I own a 'good' gaming PC (i5, 980, 16gb of ram everything descently overclocked) and I never expect to 'max' out a game.
Still I really wonder about the minimum specs. They seem a bit high to run the game on xbox like settings. Are we sure QB is going to be a 1080p xbox one game?

AFAIK, yes. There's been no mention of Steam anywhere in press/articles.
As far as MS is concerned, they don't need Steam since they have their own distribution platform (Windows Store).
Frustratingly short-sighed, IMHO, since Steam's reach and userbase would eclipse Windows Store revenue by orders of magnitude.
Same goes for Origin/Uplay/etc. -only titles, but hey... ¯\_(ツ

Every recently published by Microsoft is also Steam.

Non of those titles were announced as Windows 10 releases.

All of Ubi's Uplay games are (or were, in the case of games that Ubi can no longer distribute due to licence expirations) available on Steam with the bizarre exception of Tintin. Indeed, Ubi has actually improved how Uplay integrates with Steam over the years.
Tomb Raider is only compatible with W10 according to the Steam Store page.
10 is the recommended OS. 7 is the minimum.
Oh... you are right. My eyes are telling me lies. :lol
Real eyes realize real lies.
Tomb Raider isn't published by Microsoft on Steam I think.

Thanks for the correction.
All of Ubi's games I have on PC are on Uplay (because I got them via 3rd party resellers who were only selling Uplay keys).
So Ubi's paying Steam the usual 30% cut, but the whole game actually runs on Uplay in the background? How does that even work?

I cant tell if I'm over the minimum or not.
Code:
OS: Win10 x64 (check!)
DX12: I think not. (660 Ti)
CPU: i7 930 @ 3.4Ghz (check or no check?)
GPU: 660 Ti (check or no check?)
VRAM: 2Gb (check!)
RAM: 12GB (check!)Dictator93

Do not look at the names, look at their relative performance. Yes, you are over the minimum.
Is the 660Ti DX12 compatible though?

Essentially, the game's executable invokes the Uplay client, which runs in a special "Steam mode" that's the same thing as the "full" client but with the store disabled. When you run a Uplay game from Steam, you first have to register the game key, but after that it launches silently.
Windows 10 is the only OS in Microsoft's strategy right now. Why would they release for legacy OS?

Well no one benchmarks i7 930's or 660 ti anymore so I'm pretty lost when it comes to whats more/less powerful then other things these days.

Yes. Fermi and above are all DX12 base compatible. Fermi has yet to be updated in the driver though and may be dropped, kepler is fine.
True, but just deduce some small things like its thread count and the fact that each intel gen has been only 10-15% IPC improvements each time or how relative performance is between products. You are more than fine. My Core i7 930 @ 4.2 Ghz has yet to prevent me from reaching 60fps in any modern game that is not Star Citizen or ARMA 3 (but that is a special game).
