Ah that makes sense skankly - seems like a sensible decision from the devs, most big companies would smash out unlimited copies just to get the revenue in! I'll just have to watch a few more twitch steams and wait until Thursday.

Yep was just saying that other day with friends, remember warZ lol would they have stopped pre-order not a chance.

is it open beta on the 23rd then? After every other failure of early access don't want to drop money based on a few enjoying it in the closed one.

If you know you're actually trying to sell hyped garbage then rake it in...

Can't find a price anywhere on this for the 23rd?

dazza13 · 17 Mar 2017 at 10:15

I would imagine it will be £29.99 for EA, i'm hoping it will be £20 though.

Josh · 17 Mar 2017 at 10:16

My guess is £25 for EA on Steam, maybe a £30 package also with some skins or something added.

shankly1985 · 17 Mar 2017 at 10:21

The pre-order price is meat to be the same price so £25.

dazza13 · 17 Mar 2017 at 10:23

I think I would have preferred £20 for an EA game seems reasonable to me, but i will still most likely get it at £25.

The game has shown you the way ! Put them into a plane and let them parachute out over an island !

What kills performance in this game then? Any must do tweaks to get higher FPS? I just have everything on high atm

Also, anyone getting weird graphical glitches? See the bottom left on the floor

Games performance I needed to run at 1080p they not got into the full Optimisation stages of the game yet until the content is in there that they happy with. Shadow glitch I have read people needed to turn down shadows to fix this.

Your gash GPU...

Tombstone · 17 Mar 2017 at 17:49

Have they greatly reduced the number of weapons this time? played 4 matches so far and havent found anything better than a shotgun yet. Last weekend I literally could barely walk into a building without finding a semiauto or assault rifle

Nothing to do with AMD or Nvidia here man, I been following all the talk from devs about this game, even have friends with better GPUs than me with Frame rate issues!!

The game and its Engine Unreal 4 are still going through stages of Optimisation, We wont get full Optimisation pass until the game in couple months old into EA

The best way to play this game at this moment is 1080p I have everything on Ultra apart from Effects medium and shadows low

Josh · 17 Mar 2017 at 17:53

Just ribbing nexus on being a tight arse. It's an old joke...much like his GPU
