Nice specs.

Wonder why XP is excluded from recommended if it's not using DX10. Considering it'll perform better in DX9 games than Vista on lower end hardware (like a laptop) I can't see why.

Probably because you can't get WinXP x64 these days, while Vista and 7 x64 are easy to come by, and they have major performance optimisations.

Not that you could ever get it at retail in the first place

But yes, you'd be very hard pressed to find XP in retail or even being offered by the major manufacturers as a default install option.

Epic own Microsoft stock and they want you upgrade your Windows.</tin foil hat>

And to think someone on here made the comment about pc requirements for games have been frozen since Crysis came out. Bullcrap I say to you good person.

Hope there will be a lot of settings to max everythink out. So Im really looking forward to the dynamic lighting / dynamic shadowing. It will looks great!

The lighting looks pretty static to me.

BulletStorm won't have used the vast majority of the performance intensive techniques demonstrated in that map, because they won't run on console hardware, regardless of tweaking.

I'm with cosmix, I hope we have settings to turn on all the shebang!

In certain cases it isn't. There is a nice Blog here:

Required for multiplayer (I hope).

Correct, and for the Echoes leaderboards.

Echo... echo... echo...

That's Dyanmic lighting. I kid - but that's not really demonstrating much in the way of dynamic lighting. That's the same level of 'dynamic lighting' people have been pulling since Quake 2; special cases for effects. The vast bulk of the game world is very staticly lit.

It seems they have adopted the apple marketing scheme. Take a feature that's old as dirt, advertise it like its new and revolutionary, make billions.

iBulletstorm. Now with mouse and keyboard support.


It was not listed in the specs LOL

 

[Cr4zyB4st4rd]
