Same, surprised at the download size i suspected it would have been smaller though steam said 40gb and actual size in downloads is 26. Looking forward to getting home from work Saturday morning now

dam I brought this for ps4, but I dont like buying console when is on PC, I was really expecting this to remain an exclusive.

These dev's deliberately delay PC announcements I think to catch people like me out so we double dip.

Normally I prefer games on my PC, but these are the types of game I make an exception for they just feel more suited to consoles and a large TV.

Not heard of this one before, but the gameplay and what I have read of it does make it sound really good.

FYI There's a PS4 demo available on the store so you can check it out before biting the bullet.

Will be home ready to play around 6pm, the afternoon at work is dragging.

At the moment the PC version is a mess ... more so if you have a Radeon Card as it keeps on crashing out ... and they need to fix the sticking 900p graphic issue. Give it a few days I'm sure it will be fixed.

FloppyPoppy · 17 Mar 2017 at 18:18

900p?

maddog · 17 Mar 2017 at 18:41

The game is broken for some people/certain resoultions in full screen mode. It just renders at 900p and upscales. Window mode is fine, just fullscreen that people have an issue with.

As for performance of the game, I've played for an hour so far, and it's running fine for me

5820K
16GB
R9 290.

Everything high except AA @ 2X, locked 1080/60. Higher AA causes certain areas to dip. Had to use window mode and borderless gaming to go around the 900p issue.

21:9 support?

Yes i would say it's got 21:9 support

here are two screens i took in the same spot for no spoilers ect. not moved camera or character location simply gone into options and changed res.
16:9

21:9

The game shows of more on the sides however the hud is a bit stretched. I knew something looked a little off.

FloppyPoppy · 17 Mar 2017 at 20:42

And now i have to go to work

i don't want to haha im actually having a lot of fun on this!

Westie · 17 Mar 2017 at 20:50

hud stretched doesnt bother me aslong as the game isnt stretched..

didnt think this game was gonna support 21:9 played it on PS4 and loved it so may get it on PC now.

Unplayable for me so far, RX480 Nitro OC to a 1080p Sony TV. Can't get a proper 1080p image on full screen.
