At medium-ish settings and at 30fps it would probably do just fine. If you wanted to max out the setting and be at a really high frame rate, you’d probably want some 980s in sli. The card would be much better suited to 1080 and 1440p gaming.
2 Pillars of Eternity patches came out, a total of a good 800 MB fixing up several bugs (that’s a lot of bugs), among balance issues.
They even fixed hall way bugs that Zero stated earlier.
Started a new file, and still run into minor bugs but nothing major yet (or so I think).
Game is fun, but the more I play it, the more I kinda want to finish up BG2.
Grad school and wedding in the works so I gotta ball on a budget. That’s why I got friends over on Fridays for dranks and videogames. Last Fri. was no go, not enough people and we didn’t wanna run with randoms.
Is that the game where the devs said for months “Don’t worry it won’t be pay2win” “Don’t worry it won’t be pay2win” “Don’t worry it won’t be pay2win” “Don’t worry it won’t be pay2win”
And on launch day “You can buy better weapons for real money!”
My cousin did tell me that. Well thanks for reminding me about it. I’ll probably steer clear from it unless it goes on special. I’m curious on it but I’m sure as hell not willing to spend $20
It’s sad how steam reviews are used for trolling and lulz now. I don’t care for the “Cinematic Experience” tags on 100% of ubisoft games. Give me something actually useful. Motherfuckers putting Survival Horror on barbie games.
What made this more hilarious is how popular streamers who were promoting the game were trying to defend it, saying it wasn’t pay to win in anyway and had these strange explanations to back up their claims. But what makes it funny is the one streamer that all the devs watch (Lirik, the devs fuckin love that guy and he is a rather popular twitch streamer), flat out said it’s pay to win and anyone who thinks otherwise is retarded.
Granted, they’ve balanced out the “pay to win” feature, but in the end… it’s still kinda pay to win.
Funny enough just finished reading that since i’ve been out of the CPU news for abit and was wondering what i should upgrade too. Still rocking a I7 950 with 14 gigs of ram sitting on a EVGA 660. Wondering if i should sell it off and start fresh or get this girl a new GPU or am i gimping myself?
Not to mention, IIRC the game was supposed to be free to play sometime in the future.
Also, I’m not trusting any more open world DayZ clones. I almost got burned by that War Z/Infestation: Survivor Stories game, and I saw the meltdown of its predecessor.
Your processor is still really good. It’s not as fast as others i7’s or even some i5’s, but it doesn’t matter because it’s still a beast.
If you buy one of the new GPU’s coming out later in the year you won’t have to worry about bottlenecking. I remember some spreadsheets where even i3’s weren’t bottlenecking GTX 970’s, but AMD equivalent GPU’s were(they need faster CPU’s to get the full benefit of their better GPU’s.)
290X/290 is the best bang for your buck right now. You’ll get like…5 frames per second less than a GTX 970 but you’re saving a lot of money.
660 is still good enough to slam pretty much everything right now(at most you might need to knock down some settings here and there.) I say wait it out for the new GPU’s to drop later this year, then you can either shell out for a really good new GPU or, you can get one of the “top” cards right now that will obviously have a price drop once the new line of cards hit.
