Good to see they're still providing significant patches for the game. I made a fault report for that bug in Without A Trace & I experienced a few other minor bugs like Roach's missing tail & not being able to craft the top tier Griffin sword.
I've played the main game through twice & the expansions through once on NG+ so I don't think I'll be going back to experience these fixes any time soon but it's the kind of game that will be worth coming back to in the future so I'm glad they're still polishing.
The Scrorpio will be able to play video at 4K, maybe games at 1080P 60fps if you're lucky. The current Xbone is only doing 900P 30fps on a lot of games so any upgrade will be an improvement.
@lowmercy: Yes. I'm not a huge anime fan but I'm willing to put up with some Japanese weirdness if there's a good story. I actually wasn't sure about Attack On Titan to begin with so I started watching it in a second monitor while playing Civ V or something. Before too long, it had gripped me & I was watching it without the distraction of a game.
@spartanx169x: The actual CPUs have to be compatible with the RAM - that's what define's whether or not the motherboard is.
If you've got a bunch of DDR3 memory that you don't want to throw away, you might want to look at getting an older CPU. If it's purely a gaming machine, you won't see much difference in getting a high end chip from a couple of generations ago, the 4790K is still a great processor. The 3770K isn't too far behind.
If you're planning on running some more CPU intensive tasks like rendering videos or if you've got your heart set on a system that's going to last you plenty of years to come, you might just have to ditch your old RAM.
@fanirama: Or if you have a 1080P 60Hz monitor now but maybe in 6 months you'll have enough saved up again for something nicer. "Futureproofing" isn't really a thing but you can certainly plan an upgrade path.
@beepbep: You could give it a try at 1080P but keep an eye out for frame hitching. Unfortunately you have to exit the game to change textures, unlike every other setting.
It might be nice to have a description of what makes certain games better on PC than their console ports (for those who aren't so concerned about nicer graphics or higher framerates). Games like Dark Souls or Skyrim are moddable to an extent that makes them an entirely different experience from console. ...Neither of those games are on this list but other multi-platform games are.
Only played a few hours but I've got to the main hub area. I get a good 60-70fps at 1440P on two GTX970s. I have a couple of options turned down but it's mostly a very nice looking game.
The game recommend you only use Very High textures if you have more than 4GB VRAM but I've only seen usage between 3-3.4GB in open areas, less when you're crawling through a duct.. High textures were sometimes under 2GB.
I had one crash & this patch started downloading as soon as the game shut down. I won't speak for anyone else's experience but it looks like a pretty good port for me. It might be like Crysis or Metro in that it takes a couple more generations of GPUs to actually max out all the settings at a decent framerate but there's enough granularity in the settings to get good performance on a range of systems.
@zerofrust: Greenman Gaming is always a good option if you're worried about dodgy keys on G2A. It still won't help the exchange rate from the Candian Rupee to the US Dollar but it might save you a couple of bucks.
