Anyone waiting on the PC version of gears I have bad news. Unless they patch it. The chainsaw is just about worthless.

Bundle Stars has that Mortal Kombat X + 7 pieces of DLC bundle back up again for $19.99 and the Shadow of Mordor + Season Pass bundle for $14.99 now (no idea if this is the lowest the game and all of it's DLC have been combined)

So I pledged $25 for D:OS 2 even though I still haven't played the first one. Think I am just getting caught up in the KS hype. I'm torn though. I kinda want to up my pledge to $50 and get the D:OS ED copy, but they haven't provided any clues as to when that might be delivered or whether its a Steam or GOG key. I don't think they would wait until December 2016 to deliver that key, but I don't want to get caught in a scenario where there is a good sale for the first one and I still don't have it from the KS pledge. Decisions, decisions...
I read that as if you have the recommended specs you will be at 1080p/30 FPS, but if you have a better rig you should be able to get higher FPS.
I mean, recommended specs should reach 60 fps, but this is a Ubi game, I am not really surprised by this. AC4, which I loved, dips from 59 to 30 during certain action moments no matter what I do. So reading this about Syndicate isn't really surprising.

Targeting 1080p/30 for Recomended specs on PC is not best way to show PC community that they are serious about PC port
What's the problem? It doesn't say it's going to be locked.
The bigger problem is that it's Ubi Kiev again.
Because it should they're targeting 3840x2160@240hz damn it!!!
Personally I'll be happy that they have addressed the LOD culling issues with Anvil Next and tried to find a workable solution over any target resolution rendered and/or temporal. Only issue I have with Unity is everything turns to shit if you're not 20 foot away from it.
I think they get flack just because of a few poor efforts in the past but fact of the matter is that if it's not a new IP or engine/toolchain framework then every AAA Ubi title on PC gets handled by the Kiev studio. They might get shit but every version they have put out is the best version of that game by some considerable margin from Driver San Francisco onwards. The Division should be interesting to see as Massive are PC devs through and through.

Bleh, didn't like Twisted Dreams. I'll stick to Speedrunners, thank you.
Ubisoft Kiev, man!

Ubisoft normally has good PC ports despite what some people believe. Recommending specs for 1080p/30fps really doesn't mean anything at all.
Far Cry 4, aside from the stuttering issue, was a great port.
Unity is pretty decent after the patches.
Black Flag was also alright after patches.
Still no release dates. They're both supposed to be done this Fall, though, so anywhere up until November?

Maybe he thinks this
could mean game systems like physics or sth. breaking when unlocking framerate?

aww yeah
Perhaps India will be released this year. Have no hopes for Russia though.
I did forget about it, actually. Only remembered when Syndicate was mentioned lol.
Shouldn't. Mine took 3 hours yesterday.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Let me run the maths:
x = b + c
c = b - a
X = Giana Dream Runners
B = Better, funner game
C = Giana Sisters
A = Fun and originality
Anyone taking issue with my proof can 1) consult my venn diagram and 2) call my college math professor at 1-978-328-0186.

The recommended system requirements will target 1080p and 30 FPS.
Target 30 FPS = 20-30 fps.
Not been the case with me. First day and it's all done. Depends on the volume of requests, though, I guess.
Hmm.
Actually looking at their list of releases, I realize that I don't actually have a lot of experience with Ubi PC ports. Only games I actually played on PC were Driver SF, AC4 and Unity, 2 good releases out 3 isn't too bad, I guess. So I guess from my perspective their track record is pretty okay.
The more you know.

Why, what happened with Fallout 4 on GMG?
A Mad Max 50%off coupon worked on every single game on GMG. Including Falllout 4.
The 50% Mad Max Coupon was valid for almost everything including Fallout 4.
There's nothing wrong with that statement. A developer announcing requirements and mentioning anything regarding what such users will actually be able to achieve in-game almost never happens. It's why such listings are practically worthless. Shame on Ubi for actually giving people an idea of what to expect.

The single refund I did took an hour to get approved but like 8 days to get the money back into my account.
That said that was during the Summer sale.
Lol, missed that. Well, I have nothing to buy on GMG at the moment. Talking about GMG, anyway, MGS: TPP never got the chance to be pre-ordered, despite being on the site from a while (with GMG offering it in that big contest they did sometime ago).

I'm guessing you are misinterpretating the intent here. What Ubisoft is doing by clearly labeling the requirements should be commended, not criticized.
There is no standard for requirements, so shining some light on what to expect from requirement levels is inherently pro-consumer.
Hopfully that'll be the case this time, I thought we were in the previous week and had time to refund >_>
Yeah, that's my experience too.
That looks so good. Would be great if they put some of that art on the trading cards and profile backgrounds
Konami pls
