Yes, many people have ordered just for the beta code.
amazon says beta access not allowed for digital versions..
Order the physical version just for the beta

It doesn't look bad but it's nothing special either.

True.
I saw some footage, I think it was jackfrags even, that had proper colors and wasn't washed out. I fully believe it's a capture setting thing.

Pretty good interview with the creative director.

I didn't know NPCs will come after you when you call the extraction helicopter. That's pretty cool, even if all players in your dark zone are nice guys, you are not safe.

Well my decision depend on wether my friend are getting this on PS4 or not. Other than that, I want the best experience as possible. Online play is a part of this, i'm hoping the community on PC will be worth while.
It's a rebranded Clevo notebook. The company I ordered it from assembled the components I wanted.
Thanks for your reply, I'm aiming for 1080p. I just wish I could try out the game on my notebook before I actually buy the game.
Your best bet will be the beta to sort of get an understanding of it's potential performance on your laptop, of course you can account for some better performance overall with proper driver support and maybe the devs adding some optimizations during this final month.
It still boggles my mind how a game can go from looking like a Crysis 2007 game, to literal shit tier in a few years. Even the Witcher 3 downgrade wasn't this bad.
I guess those early rumor leaks about the devs getting pressured by the publisher to make it on par with the console to make them not feel bad is true after all.
You need a key.

Just remember, consoles are 30fps. If it can't handle 60fps on high, just crank everything up and settle for 30fps, it's still better than consoles. If you still prefer 60fps, you may be able to play on low or medium settings. The other PC footage the other day shows 60fps on a 650Ti video card.
Can somebody give me a key!?
You can get it for $1 off some "websites".
Or wait and hope there is a giveaway and you manage to snag one.

What? I was not talking about the original trailer at all. You are getting sidetracked. I am talking about the two week period leading to release. Nothing more.
No. You are incorrect. Initial comparisons came out and the PC version and the XBO version looked neck and neck. People were up in arms because the PC version footage/screens/comparisons were all labeled "Ultra", and the devs had said Ultra would blow away the console versions.
Well, turns out the Ultra setting was bugged on the versions the press was using, combined with terrible compression of youtube videos. A hotfix was release, and some press sights even updated their comparisons to show "Real Ultra" settings in action. The game was released, and to no ones surprise the PC version does look lightyears ahead of console. (I have owned both a PS4 copy and PC copy of Wild Hunt since launch).
A post about one of the corrections that a early comparison site had to do...
This was updated after the previous comparison using the preview build and not the review build with the day one patch, looked like the game was nigh identical on XBO as it was on PC.
Not talking about "Downgrades" despite your obsession with them Icecold.. I have already said the game has been downgraded compared to the E313 build. That has absolutely nothing to do with the point I am making. So stop trying to drag my conversation into that same old tired one you are always having.
I love that the devs say the PC version having tons of options and proper control and such is a "matter of pride" to them.
Like, this shit should be normal for all developers to put into a proper PC version, but I like how they are so committed to it. "We come from PC, it HAS to be great or we lose face"

Well, considering that I have been playing consoles for most of my gaming career. I could settle for 30FPS if that means the game is gonna look great! It's what I'm used to anyway.
Guess I'm gonna have to go and hunt me down a key then.

Me too, and that's what I'm planning to do.
Force brute the graphics for maximum IQ and settle for 30fps.

Since PS4 beta didn't start, Alpha was XBO only and press events were XBO and PC only I highly doubt these screenshots are from PS4.
I bet they are from the XBO version. But yep, they don't look bad.

We have already established that there was a PS4 beta test that started earlier in the week.

There is literally people playing on the PS4 right now as we speak.
No. I'm pretty sure you can use a mix of medium and a few low settings for locked 60 with these specs. High settings on PC should be almost equal to PS4, as with most games but you'd have to cope with 30 fps.
Can somebody give me a key!?
Pre-order from Amazon, get a key, cancel the pre-order.

All that hostage had to do was push on the panic bar, not worth saving imho.
Alright boys, PC settings for those that like to tinker ini settings (no clue what HFTS is though):

Beyond the obvious things, I wonder what "raa" is and what other values can be input for SMAA and temporal AA.
Reflection AA? GTA V has reflection AA seperate as well.

Are any of these settings even showing up in those screenshots we are seeing?
- I know there isn't AF
- game looks very flat so I doubt there is AO
I didn't see any reflections in the puddles - No screen space reflections either
- were there Noen shadows?

There's definitely reflections in the puddles. One screenshot shows a red neon sign reflected.

So how is the PS4 version looking? Or was anything leaked from the beta this week?

I recall reading the game supports HBAO+ (i'll try to find the source when I'm not at work)
Nvidia actually says so on their website. It also uses PCSS for soft shadows.

I assume it will look better on PC. Plus, when the oculus ships, my PC is going to get a lot more attention (either a Pascal or Polaris GPU upgrade).
However, I've got a decent friends list on PSN, and I like the way party chats and sharing works, so I assume that the Division will have a larger / more social community on PS4, especially compared to Uplay (wish they'd give up on that shit in favor of steam). That is literally the only reason I was considering PS4, but I actually placed my pre-order on PC since I want to play the PC beta.
