max payne 3's system requirements have been updated so here we go.. lulz

CPU: Intel Dual Core 2.4 GHZ or AMD Dual Core 2.6 GHZ, or better

CPU: Intel Dual Core 3GHz or AMD equivalent
RAM: 3GB
GPU: NVIDIA® GeForce 450 512MB RAMor AMD Radeon? HD 4870 512MB RAM

At this level, you will be able to comfortably run the game at 30 frames per second with a 1920 by 1080 screen resolution.

Max Payne 3 High End Recommended System Requirements

OS: Windows 7/Vista (32 or 64 bit)
CPU: Intel i7 Quad Core 2.8Ghz or AMD equivalent
RAM: 3GB
GPU: NVIDIA® GeForce 480 1GB RAMor AMD Radeon? HD 5870 1GB RAM

At this level, you will be able to comfortably run the game at 60 fps at 1920 by 1080.

Max Payne 3 Highest Tested Specs

OS: Windows 7/Vista (64 bit)

CPU: Intel i7 3930K 6 Core x 3.06 GHZor AMD FX8150 8 Core x 3.6 GHZ

RAM: 16GB

looks like no dual gpu support. and those system requirements for maximum 60+fps @ 1080p look like bs.. calling it now.. the next gta IV. btw the game supports eyefinity by the looks of the source's comments (though not explicitly stated). i also find it incredibly hard to believe that you require a core i7 neahelm for max payne 3 on maximum.. maybe a core i5 gen 1 quad .. MAYBE

So you are basing how optimized it is just from those specs without actually seeing it in motion...ok then.

i don't see any change from what they were before. And just to make sure everyone realizes it, since there are always people who don't actually read it; the 6 core i7 and gtx 680 are not the reccomended specs, they are the highest TESTED specs.

That's it. We don't know. Its too early to jump to conclusions and say its unoptimized.

Could be on lowest settings for both (unoptimized) could be on highest settings for both (optimized well)

We'll just have to wait and see...

That's unoptimized?

A CPU/GPU/RAM combination from 2006, a budget combination at that, for minimum requirements, is unoptmized?

Do you not realize that was 6 years ago already? The game probably doesn't even have a DX9 renderer.

Those sepcs aren't outrageous at all. The i7 series has been out for 2 years now and 4 gigs of DDR3 1600 ram costs $24. The high end recommendation states a single GTX 480 (a 2 year old card) can run it at 60fps at 1080p.

Please, for how good this game looks, those are the exact specs I was expecting.

How does this look unoptimized? You can game on a several year old 8800GT, and go up all the way up to a 480 for HIGH END RECOMMENDED. Keep in mind 480 isn't even that great anymore now that the 500 and 600 series' of cards are out. You just want something to complain about. You can game on an HD 3400. You can't max it out with that, so what? Big deal? What more could you want? They are implementing a lot of great things for PC gamers that yes, DOES take hardware to run.

Sorry, but if you're still on a GTX 8800 then you need to upgrade if you want to max it out. You're such a cry baby.

It looks more fair but at the same time Dissapointing that it needs hardware from a couple of years ago to max it up. The last Requirements list to max it up was a little ridicuolous

Was it fun at least, when you played it? what settings did you use? Wait...you almost fooled me, it's the comeback of your "omg what requirements this pos games has" kind of threads that you used to make, they worked out great so far, don't see how this could go wrong (not one of them had problems on lower PCs than the minimum requirements, I don't however expect such an advanced game as MP 3 to go lower than the recommended minimum which is a little too low for PCs that in general are capable of running games).

So by TC's logic, it looks unoptimized by looking at the released requirements being too high.

Lets take a look at GTA IV's shall we?

Minimum System Requirements * OS: Windows Vista - Service Pack 1 / XP - Service Pack 3 * Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8Ghz, AMD Athlon X2 64 2.4Ghz * Memory: 1.5GB, 16GB Free Hard Drive Space * Video Card: 256MB NVIDIA 7900 / 256MB ATI X1900

Recommended System Requirements * OS: Windows Vista - Service Pack 1 / XP - Service Pack 3 * Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4Ghz, AMD Phenom X3 2.1Ghz * Memory: 2 GB (Windows XP) 2.5 GB (Windows Vista) * 18 GB Free Hard Drive Space * Video Card: 512MB NVIDIA 8600 / 512MB ATI 3870

WOW! Worlds best optimization!

When a multiplat comes out almost unchanged from the console version, everyone cries about the consoles holding PC back, now when a multiplat game releases that actually has 2K textures and DX11 features like tesselation it's unoptimized? Are PC gamers ever satisfied? Isn't this exactly what we wanted for once, a game that pushes modern hardware?

You hit the nail right on the head here, sir. PC gamers, especially around here I've noticed are NEVER happy. They are the biggest buncha cry babies ever about the most trivial things. They take a look at those "Highest TESTED specs", and get all butt hurt, but forget about the lower end specs that could be played on. This is why no one wants anything to do with PC gamers. "

But guys, please remember if TC see's you disagree with him you WILL BE REPORTED.

now that makes you a whiney baby good sir. if you have problems with me reporting spam bots and folks discussing things clearly outlined in the ToU as unwanted discussion topics such as emu's then i recommend you go find a place where they are accepted with the threads and forums. so there you are.. enjoy getting bothered by bots and thread necro's somewhere else kk. some of us dont want em around.

If a reputable developer released that kind of information you would have PC gamers drooling. However we are not talking about a reputable developer here. We are talking about Rockstar a company that has **** on the PC platform for the best part of 10 years. A developer that does NOTHING but lazy ports of their games to the PC platform if they can be bothered too. Yet all of a sudden we are expected to go "oh wowzer Rockstar said MP 3 isn't a port" and "hooray they are doing extra stuff for the PC version". What people should be saying is "oh yeah Rockstar I have heard you say "this isn't a port" and I have heard you say "extra features" you said all these things with GTA 4 and we all know how that turned out.

Now with regards to those specs they are meaningless unless we know the actual settings those specs relate too. Let me give you an example if Maximum is to play it at console settings and 1080p @ 60fps I think any sane person would go "get the hell out of here with that unoptimised mess". So until we know the actual settings these specs refer too it is a bit pointless to speculate. However going by Rockstars history the signs are not good.

let us also recall that gta IV's problem is right on the bloody box. read dem req. their low end to recommended basically jump. the same thing happened with ghostbusters 2009, and a variety of other poorly ported games to pc around or since that time. in reality i cant think of any game playable on lowest settings on an hd 3400 series but that requires the awesome power of a gtx 560 448core/hd 6930 to max out. can you? im fairly certain crysis 2 doesnt fit that mold. ff14 doesnt either. hmm what about metro.. nope. i cant think of a single solitary game thats maximum far outstrips its minimum. the higher settingas always sit within reach of a card made during the lowest end requirement's generation. dont even get me started on the cpu requirement jumping from a core 2 duo to a core i7 neahelm which is absolutely bonkers!

rockstar also hasnt given two f---'s that we exist since gta 3. we have been the bottom of the igiveaf--- list for a long time now and expecting them to turn on a dime is madness. dont come whining around me when this game turns out to be the next gta IV

So people are still complaining about this game? Because of a couple of mistakes in the past?

Kind of sad, Rockstar did a LOT of work catering to the PC audience in making sure its optimized, and if you think that's unoptimized then you should really stop using a 7 year old PC to play your games.

AMD released a CAP that included increase performance for Crossfire in Max Payne 3 and i remember reading that Nvidia released a driver or hotfix that included stuff for SLI in Max Payne 3 as well.

It isn't just a "couple" of mistakes in the past, it is EVERY SINGLE GAME since GTA 3 has been an unoptimised mess on the PC. Stop trying to understate just how appaulling Rockstars work is on the PC. Their recent efforts such as bully, GTA 4 and hell LA Noire were borderline unplayable. As for this rubbish of "stop using a 7 year old PC" they managed to optimise Max Payne 3 to run on nearly 7 year old console hardware didn't they ? Max Payne 3 is a game designed and built for 7 year old consoles there is no reason why it should require a state of the art PC to run it at 1080p. Oh and Rockstar also apparently "put a lot of work catering to the PC audience" for GTA 4 and we all know how that turned out don't we.

My PC is ready!! Looking forward to this even though I wasnt that impressed playing the PS3 version. I got L.A Noire free with my pre-order of Max Payne and the game runs amazingly well so I dont know what people are complaining about. Im guessing it had updates after a terrible release?

it was capped at 30fps and people has issues running it smoothly before the dx11 patch fixed up the performance.

It was capped at 30 fps for a good reason. All the facial animations were recorded at 30 fps. If the game ran at 60 fps but the faces at 30 that would probably look very weird.

R* makes great games that have a decent amount of problems, but it's not just on PC, the way they make their games is in the end flawed on any platform, mostly because of their engine, but personally I didn't care about the common glitches the engine used and evolved on GTA had, they're the best games in that genre and they performed exemplary at release (for me, yes, you probably already know and you yourself, that nobody cares about other random people and their problems), GTA IV worked just fine maxed out (with the VRAM cheat/hack) on a "pathetic" 8800GT, the patches were great, but didn't do a single thing to make it better or worse in performance till the patch that changed shadows and particles, it made it a lot more demanding for that pathetic 8800GT that couldn't even do shadows anymore, had to go on medium for everything and the sliders went lower for it to have the same performance as the GTA IV from the first minute of its release, same with L.A Noire, except it worked and still works flawlesly on my PC.

Now MP 3, people that actually have a clue and they're not going insane over childish propaganda, hysteria and conspiracy theories, people that managed to play the game at expositions and such, said it plays perfectly fine on PC, not that I care about what they say or even lass about extremists like you guys, but I actually get my torch after I see with my own eyes what happens.

max payne 3's system requirements have been updated so here we go.. lulz

CPU: Intel Dual Core 3GHz or AMD equivalent
RAM: 3GB
GPU: NVIDIA® GeForce 450 512MB RAMor AMD Radeon? HD 4870 512MB RAM

At this level, you will be able to comfortably run the game at 30 frames per second with a 1920 by 1080 screen resolution.

Max Payne 3 High End Recommended System Requirements

OS: Windows 7/Vista (32 or 64 bit)
CPU: Intel i7 Quad Core 2.8Ghz or AMD equivalent
RAM: 3GB
GPU: NVIDIA® GeForce 480 1GB RAMor AMD Radeon? HD 5870 1GB RAM

At this level, you will be able to comfortably run the game at 60 fps at 1920 by 1080.

Max Payne 3 Highest Tested Specs

OS: Windows 7/Vista (64 bit)

CPU: Intel i7 3930K 6 Core x 3.06 GHZor AMD FX8150 8 Core x 3.6 GHZ

RAM: 16GB

looks like no dual gpu support. and those system requirements for maximum 60+fps @ 1080p look like bs.. calling it now.. the next gta IV. btw the game supports eyefinity by the looks of the source's comments (though not explicitly stated). i also find it incredibly hard to believe that you require a core i7 neahelm for max payne 3 on maximum.. maybe a core i5 gen 1 quad .. MAYBE

looks like no dual gpu support. and those system requirements for maximum 60+fps @ 1080p look like bs.. calling it now.. the next gta IV. btw the game supports eyefinity by the looks of the source's comments (though not explicitly stated). i also find it incredibly hard to believe that you require a core i7 neahelm for max payne 3 on maximum.. maybe a core i5 gen 1 quad .. MAYBE

[QUOTE="ferret-gamer"][QUOTE="Jshoelace"]

My PC is ready!! Looking forward to this even though I wasnt that impressed playing the PS3 version. I got L.A Noire free with my pre-order of Max Payne and the game runs amazingly well so I dont know what people are complaining about. Im guessing it had updates after a terrible release?

Ben-Buja

it was capped at 30fps and people has issues running it smoothly before the dx11 patch fixed up the performance.

It was capped at 30 fps for a good reason. All the facial animations were recorded at 30 fps. If the game ran at 60 fps but the faces at 30 that would probably look very weird.

I unlocked the framerate and played it at over 30 FPS and it looked fine.

Have you played the game OP? It has a *LOT* of physics. The animations are governed by Euphoria as well. It makes perfect sense that you would require at least an i7 to play the game smoothly at high settings.

I heard about that unlocked framerate but at the time, the author couldn't get it to work properly without the game crashing. Could you please provide the link to the stable version? Thanks in advance!

When a multiplat comes out almost unchanged from the console version, everyone cries about the consoles holding PC back, now when a multiplat game releases that actually has 2K textures and DX11 features like tesselation it's unoptimized? Are PC gamers ever satisfied? Isn't this exactly what we wanted for once, a game that pushes modern hardware?

You hit the nail right on the head here, sir. PC gamers, especially around here I've noticed are NEVER happy. They are the biggest buncha cry babies ever about the most trivial things. They take a look at those "Highest TESTED specs", and get all butt hurt, but forget about the lower end specs that could be played on. This is why no one wants anything to do with PC gamers. "

But guys, please remember if TC see's you disagree with him you WILL BE REPORTED.

NEWSFLASH: Different people have different opinions. I know, pretty hard to believe that a group of millions of people isn't a hivemind.

Again those are THE HIGHEST TESTED SPECS. They're not needed, you need 3GB for high

If a 480 is all they require for max settings, I'd say it sounds a lot more optimized than GTA IV was considering how nice the game looks in stills.

This has nothing to do with opinions, it's stupid to whine about specs and performance when the game isn't even out.

It has everything to do with opinions. I am of the view that going by Rockstars history, the specs released and stuff Rockstar has been saying that this is going to be yet another crappy job by Rockstar <- that is an opinion, it is my opinion. You don't like that opinion so you childishly try to devalue it by bringing out the pathetic "whiners" card.

You're making assumptions. Not the same as opinion. And it's stupid no matter what you decide to call it.

abelieforjudgmentthatrestsongroundsinsufficienttoproducecompletecertainty.Definition of the word opinion

My goodness it certainly looks like I am declaring an "opinion" going by the actual definition of what an opinion is. No it is not stupid, I could say those spending money on Rockstars latest attempt at making a PC game are stupid, but I wouldn't do that. They have an opinion that the game will be worth the money and good luck to them. I am not going to insult them or belittle them. Just because you disagree with an opinion does not make that stupid, it means you disagree with it that is all.;

Kinda off topic, but does anyone know if you can download the game from Rockstarts site? My dvd drive just ground to a halt...
