They should make a game about getting your next beer when you run out two beers in.

Assassin’s Creed Unity Minimum System Requirements Revealed
– GPU:Minimum – NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 680 or AMD Radeon HD 7970 or above
I bought it. I only needed Lego Hobbit (and DLCs), I already sold LEgo Lord of the Rings. If you need War in the North and Guardians of Middle-Earth and (DLCs) let me know.
Jesus my GPU can't even reach recommended anymore... fuck me.
Man, it sucks that my GTX770 isn't enough to meet the recommended settings for Unity. I bought it this year and was planning to use it for a few years, lol.
Thanks for the offer. I still need to decide whether I want to buy this. I kinda want to play a Lego game, but at the same time, I don't feel a strong urge to. I don't want to add it to my backlog, especially for $10.

Same here. My 7950 am cry. Oh well, I already played that game when it was called Assassin's Creed 2 anyway.
Edit: Can't read. Mine can't even reach the minimum.

"oh my god look at those minimum requirements"
~~ actual quote from every PC system requirements thread on NeoGAF ever ~~
~~ actual quote from every PC system requirements thread on NeoGAF ever ~~
Mine too. My poor ol 770..
But why not both?
In reality, I'd have a tough time recommending Mordor. It's amusing enough to keep playing, but I'm actually bored with it after 10 hours. Combat is not even close to Batman's level. There's not much to do in the world except kill orcs, which is very easy. Nemesis system is actually not that deep. In fact, it's somewhat thin. People say it gets better and better but so far it's just more and more of the same (killing orcs and some weak story missions). While the game may take a radical turn in another 10 hours, I'm not expecting much.
I know many disagree with me, and I myself am not that excited about Beyond Earth, but if I had to do it over I might change my own purchase decision from Mordor to BE.
Then again, Civ 5 was very vanilla, feature lacking, and imbalanced on release. So I'm not overly confident that BE will be well balanced and feature packed on release. It's just around the corner, though, so no harm waiting to see how it is.
Damn thats even worse!

Standard? Unity is just one game! Mordor runs fine on ultra preset.
Yeah, 770 here as well, this is worrying. Also, an i5 rather than an i7.
Well I was just trying Portal 2 and Borderlands TPS and neither had the option. Just went with CSGO and got a good taste of what it's like.

But I thought AC:Unity was bottlenecked by the CPU, not the GPU...
Even my CPU won't reach recommended. Have an i5, they need an i7. Wth Ubisoft...

Whenever someone says Unity without the AC before it, I always think they're talking about the game engine at first.

More games should use UE, because UE scales really well.
Yeah it runs fine for me too on Max. I was just hoping my 770 wouldn't have any issues on Ultra at any game for at least 2 years. But already a year and I have to go down a notch.
I get slowdown when Ultra Textures are enabled on my 2GB 770. Regretting not going for the 4GB.
I thought there is not much of a difference between an i5 and i7 when it comes to games.

I just notice since store is in Mexican Pesos, some games are expensive and some games are cheaper, for example: Resident Evil Revelations costs $899.99 mexican pesos ($66 USD) and The Witcher 3 costs $407.99 mexican pesos (about $30 USD)
It's time to buy The Witcher 3

Have you considered Shadow of Mordor, the game that does AC better than AC?
I like Assassin's Creed because I get to walk around in wonderfully realized historical settings, rather than for the gameplay, so guess

Its gonna get worse next year.. I too should have bought an i7.

Implying that Mordor is not a historical setting.
Did you not know that Middle-Earth is in fact Earth?

More of a VRAM issue rather a power one, besides, ultra and high are barely indistinguishable.
For me, first think about Dave Chappelle, then the engine. I'm strange.
I've forgotten about that. Hopefully there are some aggressive LOD settings available for lower end systems.
In before 720p/30 fps
I'm not expecting it to run as well as I would like, but not to that extent! Like the previous ACs, likely CPU limited and settling for 30 refresh rate is the worst I expect.
Damn, so much regret. And I consulted so many people. Everyone said 2GB VRAM was enough and that no game would need more for years to come, and that an i5 was enough. Just goes to show you how fast PC tech moves.
Still, I don't plan to upgrade for at least another 2-3 years. I need to get my money's worth out of this PC.

you dont need a i7 for unity, to even think that is even remotely true is baffling
sure if you have a old ass i5 750 for example youre probably screwed, but im pretty sure if you have a i5 4690k you can shit on Unity or any game (for now)
did we not learn anything from Mordor and Evil Within lately?
edit: also that thread says minimum i5 and recomended i7, and yet it lists the same AMD one for both min and recomended, and the pciture where this came from aparently, doesnt even mention a i7

You mean how devs would rather ship as soon as possible due to time constraints then come out with a more efficient code?
No official Far Cry 4 requirements yet or is my google-fu failing me?
That's just the "Compromise" stage of the 7 stages of Grief.exe talking.

Shadow of Mordor isn't even a well-realized fictional setting. It's like if AC3 was just the wilderness or AC Brohood was just the area outside of Rome. They could have made the environments more involved.

You need to download the textures yourself, sounds more like not doing extra work instead of compromising.
Yeah, that definitely doesn't sound like something I would be interested in playing. Bad Zeliard.
Anyway, time to get back on the Beyond Earth (and Farming Simulator 15) hypetrain

The point is probably multi-threads, the AMD one is already 8 cores, but i7 needs hyperthreading to reach 8 threads, and i5 doesn't support it.
What? I did download it. I'm talking about the fact that there is no discernible difference between High and Ultra and compromising that playing on high is fine when you know deep down that your own rig can't handle the highest setting anymore.

I sent you a PM. Please look at it before you do something you'll regret.

So I've been researching these 'endless' games for the last half hour (dungeon of the endless, endless legend, endless space) and... they sound perfect. Are they as perfect as they sound?
I'm worried my poor old laptop won't be able to handle them though.

lol we really should have feel good presets like someone said in Mordor's VRAM thread, just make PS4's settings ultra, then people would praise the game's incredible optimization, and would no longer feel insecure about their rigs.
Endless Space is fun. I would buy that before you throw down some serious money for Endless Legend though. Endless Legend still getting a lot of patches as well.
That red pixel on his shoulder is bothering me. I thought it was my monitor for a second.
