MS Studios polling community about KI on PC (Update)

does it really matter after a year?

seriously?

Yeah, PC communities tend to stick around for longer than that.

As for Gears of War it was actually own by epic games until MS bought it but apparently it didn't sale as well on PC so they just didn't bother.

Do it, I'd buy it day 1.

@Alucard_Prime

Theres two things I just can't do with my thumbs in Dead or Alive using a controller..... I can't sidestep outward and I can't perform any Moves that require double flicking the stick backswards (except throws for some reason.)... For some reason the execution window for those moves is much shorter than the ones that require double foward flicking....

Anyway.... The sidestepping thing is not so much of an issue since the game has an alternate input for that, but the other thing really bothers me since I can only perform it using the D-Pad and I hate taking my thumbs off the left stick.....

That one thing is pretty much the only reason I was interested in Fightsticks recently.....

But $300 ? To hell with that ! I'd rather Exercise my l eft hand, increase my thumb Speed and Dexterity........

Oh wait ! Do they make inverted Controllers for left handed people ?

@Krelian-co

My bad... Didn't mean to hurt your feelings..... You probably just need to increase your Tolerance Stats.... :p

my tolerance for stupidity is quite low, won't deny that, and since your posts are quite stupid, well it's just a bad combination.

@Krelian-co

Your insults are starting to sound lazy. Try again......

i am sleepy, will try harder tomorrow.

That and the game is still technically in development. still afew more characters to add i think

Another reason not to own a XB1 if you have a gaming pc. Portbox 1

Pretty much. I don't even own any consoles any more, but if I ever was going to get one it certainly would not be an Xbox One. Probably Wii U, then PS4, with Xboner in last place.

Beta tested in the future!

I think it matters more on the fact that it can set a precedent for future MS games aswell has strenghten the FGC on PC

Bump with updated results on the now revealed poll

This could be the year that MS finally makes some worthwhile games/ports for PC again.

Or not... you never know with Microsoft.

2.2k sounds a bit low....

After years of annoyance and neglect i would like MS to stay far away from PC gaming,nothing they bring to the table will be any better than anyone else can do,and it certainly won't be cheaper.

It's low because it's only the people from the KI forums voting.

I certainly understand your sentiment, I mean it wasn't very nice of MS to abandon PC gamers like that and close PC centric studios and basically say 'We're no longer making games for you guys, now go and buy an Xbox'

But on the other hand if they are making a new Age of Empires or Rise of Nations for PC I would welcome that with open arms. There really are no more games like that on PC.

So would i, but that is about as likely as Elivs coming back from the grave with a new hit Dubstep track :P , if it did it would no doubt be online and free to play with microtransactions

More than likely It will be low cost indie ports and some of their "lesser" games"

Either way it has been over a decade and a half since they gave me any reason to believe or care about what they say or do,too many other better options out there to hope for the return of MS.

So KI coming to PC is almost confirmed.

Abit. I don't expect it to happen, but maybe we'll get lucky and they'll bring it to pc with cross play. Again, i don't count on this happening

By Microsoft releasing one of its game on windows its supporting another one of its products "windows" how do people not understand this?

they understand this..they just dont care.

Í didn't say anyway.

More money for microsoft so they can make even more games to bring to PC so all gamers will only need a ps4/pc/wiiU setup and they will just buy games from steam instead of microsoft store too so why would microsoft wanna do this?

microsoft isnt making any money on pc games most sales are through steam or other cheaper digital download sites nobody even need what or where the microsoft pc store is

If they don't care then why do they try and butthurt or damage control over it? I Don't care either way I have a xbox,ps4,wiiu and a gaming pc makes no difference to me but to some wow!

Another exclusive whored to the PC by MS.

Those games are then only played via Windows. Guess who sells that product

33% is a real factual number.

Sony and MS are giving a lot of games to PC this gen.

i guess but i haven't boughten a new verison of windows in forever so microsoft isnt seeing any money for the future u can still game great on windows 7 an stuff while sony makes money on every game picture in the store and selling consoles its just bad for microsoft to go this route imo due to not needing to buy the new windows to play the new games it doesn't really help them sell newer windows products it only helps the game studios and steam mainly it hurts themselves and pc gamers see it they just say nothing about it

@Heil68: It seems like much more then that.

Would like that very much. I love Elvis and I love Dubstep. Elvis was pretty much the king of dubstep of his time i.e. really popular among the youths.

I don't know... Age of Empires sold millions of copies. While their pay to win, free to play Age of Empires Online cost MS a lot more money than it made. Don't you think MS is smart enough to learn from that ?

Perhaps they are, perhaps they aren't :)

New GPU's will support DX12, new games will support DX12, and only Windows 10 will have DX12. So you might want to consider upgrading :) Sony isn't just a gaming company that's the difference. Microsoft is a huge company that get's money from everywhere, which supports Xbox division. Sony on the other hand is losing money everywhere, and everywhere is supporting on their console division. I rather be in the Microsoft camp.

okay so u think gaming studios will build games only for DX12 an cut off a huge base of pc players?

news flash PC's are dying people are buying tablets at home and only use pc for school/work now people are ditching PC's in there homes however an schools/work are also moving over to tablets as well

who is lthe leading tablet its not microsoft, microsoft is only 4% of the smart phone market and and android is like 75% or somehting

microsoft is in as much trouble as sony there flagship product is like a dinosaur and android could def pose problems an make them extinct jsut look at microsoft products its all tied to windows

if a studio makes games for dx12 windows 10 they will lose like 90% of there business if they ditch old windows ppl just look at windows 8 nobody buys games for windows 8 or windows 8 phones/tablets what makes 10 asny diff?

And that has what to do with what he said? Cows were acting like it was even though it's not. Doesn't matter if it was or wasn't exclusive to begin with.

That makes sense for MS and it would make even more sense if they made it cross play. That would be huge for that game.

Lol, where do you get your info? Tablet market is declining already, and PC market soaring in 2015... At least those are the predictions. And yeah Microsoft isn't in any trouble, if they were in trouble than why did their stock increase with 100% in the last 2 years? Ow yeah right because they are doing bad...

im just saying dude i would dump everything into google samsung they seem like future proof ditch sony ditch microsoft and apple

why own microsoft stock right now its just a nightmare waiting to happen imo

google samsung and actvision blizzard are future proof imo

So it's official xbone is a poor man's PC?

A lot of hardware developers like samsung are ditching Android. LG, => WebOS, Samsung => Tizen. They don't want to be dependent on Google which is why they are ditching Android step per step. And yeah owning Microsoft stock isn't a nightmare waiting to happen, they are making more money every quarter...

Only in SW is the PC a competitor of a console. Neither MS, Sony, nor Nintendo list "personal computer" as a competitor of their devices (10-K reports).

Yet neither of them put their major series IPs on PC.

who are the 24% who don't think KI on PC is a good idea

@deadline-zero0: They should keep it exclusive on XBox One and make a different game for the PC only. That would be the best thing. They are probably doing this because of the SFV exclusive on PS4, but there;s no way they should port anymore XB1 games to the PC.

*******************************************************************

I wouldn't hold my breath. Insomniac is working on R&C for the PS4, so you can forget about Sunset Overdrive. None of the Forza games have been on PC, so forget those. Tomb Raider is timed exclusive so we know it will go to the PC after a year on the XB1. Quantum Break, Halo 5, Crackdown, Fable Legends? No..no...no. lol!!

I hope people understand that this isn't a confirmation. Just that the poll shows people want it.

It's still more unlikely than likely to happen. But who knows.

They can support PC Windows by making it's own exclusives for it. Games that won't be on XB1, PS4, Wii U, or MAC. That' how they support it. It's just dumb to make XB1 exclusives non-exclusive by porting the games to the PC. By doing that, XB1 loses true exclusives. Sure it's still Microsoft/Windows exclusive, but everyone gets to play it, instead of just XB1 gamers only. Thankfully, none of the RARE games have every gone to PC. I wouldn't expect Fable, Forza 6, Crackdown, Scalebound, Phantom Dust or Gears of War to go to PC either. Quantum Break is up in the air.
