8/10 joke.

If you are being serious though, no. It's the 3rd person version of How to Survive and not a new game at all. The devs are being quite upfront about it too. It is the same game just with a different camera.

Still not sure why they needed this to be another game, I am not so sure.

They also talk about a few things to expect in the game, seems even constumes can be gotten for free?
Also the IGN guy seems to joke about Blanka and Honda being in, though seeing what they did to Claw I don't mind any SF2 character being in now.

Can't wait til 2016 to pile drive fools as a Spaniard Ninja~

The virtual texture compression setting has a huge impact on Wolfenstein's frame-rate.
Playing Old Blood really reminds me of how fun this game is.

Their wizardry is why I wish they weren't stuck making blech cyclical releases. They'd do really well in a Counter-Strike kind of situation with several years of support or some such. Atleast I imagine they would.

treyarch is always the best when it comes to PC. no other COD had 4k before right?
Click to expand...

I'm fairly certain all modern CoD games support arbitrary resolutions (4 definitely does and I doubt later entries have eschewed that since it's an exceedingly basic feature). Really, "4K support" is meaningless unless it's coming from a developer with a history of offering only select resolutions... which describes just about every Japanese developer that has made the jump to the PC in recent years.

There is a distinction to make between supporting 4K and having been designed with it in mind, however -- e.g. a game that runs at 4K (i.e. supports it) may have poor UI scaling at such a high resolution (i.e. wasn't designed with it mind), which can be particularly problematic when it comes to strategy games. But I'm sure you know this already.

Edit: It seems nobody has answered this:

How does enemy scaling in Fallout 3 work when using a mod that increases the cap? Are they limited to the intended level cap of 20/30 (depending on whether or not Broken Steel is installed) or do they continue to scale upward alongside your character?

Blimey you've either got a short memeory or don't remeber that Treyarch were the console focused studio who after a string of console ports for the likes of Tony Hawk and Spider-Man to other platforms came in to COD to bring it to consoles and then we're given COD 3 while Infinity Ward worked on 4. You know Call of Duty 3, the only mainline title not on PC. And yes I'm fully aware that Infinity Ward is not the same company the once were hence me posting how their fortunes have changed. Also as Jase says "4K Support" is nothing short of marketing guff and every single COD on PC supports artbitrary resolutions.

Be nice but they're Activision's key player now so fat chance of that unless Bobby has a spat with Mark Lamia or something. I remeber the days when the COD community wanted these guys out as they were ruining the franchise but then I guess Zombies happened.

4K support is a good thing because it means the devs actually tested the game at the resolution to some degree. While games do support arbitrary resolutions more often than not, there are problems with higher resolutions beyond just you know being able to select them in a menu.

Pretty disgusting gif, Salsa.

But then I remember I've had occasions where I'm so drunk and want to go from kissing a girl's neck to kissing her lips, my eyes closing while moving towards the front, that I accidentally make out with her nose for a split second before moving lower.

I'm disgusting.

I'm bored to death of SFII characters. I've been seeing those fools for 25 years already. Hell I would be happy with them dipping into Street Fighter I instead since they seem to hate SFIII characters or developing more than 4 new characters at a time. They should have had at least 6 new.
