Forums - Gaming Discussion - A heads-up for PC gamers.(Dying Light)

So far there are no reviews from Gamerankings and Metacritic. But I looked for the game's performance on PC and I found this thread, apparently this is gonna be another unoptimized game for PC's.

I was hoping to play this at atleast medium on my PC as I don't have a PS4/XboxOne yet, but I think that won't happen  . . . sigh.

Here is the thread.

I saw the thread, and the reports are rather inconsistent. Some guys are claiming to have 2 970 and don't run the game, others say they do it with a 670. It seems more like random BS.

I would wait for the reviews (in your case, PC Gamer is a good one to be sure). I saw some Twitch streams of people on PC (with 670 and equivalent GPUs) running the game apparently well. PS4 streamings seems smooth too, so I don't think it will be that much of an issue.

However, I believe that a 660 it's the minimum, if it isn't your case it will probably be a no go.



Bet with jetforcejiminy: PS4 will pass the Wii lifetime numbers.

well, that we dont have reviews now is a BIG flashing REDLIGHT... and its because they didnt send out reviewcopys it seems, another flashing redlight...

Totalbiscuit complained about it yesterday

Ok, new theory. Yesterdays patch messed some things up. Settings ended up corrupted. Refreshing all those settings fixed it.



seems there was a patch which caused problems with the settings.. was running fine before the patch

Well I was hoping I get to play it on medium atleast as I meet most the recommended requirements, and to think I was going to get it awhile ago, whew, anyways here are my specs.

Core i7 3770 3.4Ghz, R9 270 2GB, 8GB RAM

I think Ozgameshop made me dodge a bullet by delaying the CD Keys by a month. I'll be asking for a refund momentarily.

I watched the 1st 20 mins on youtube & it comes as a very bland game, the 1st 4 mins are downright pathetic, adding cliché upon cliché & very weak story!

Jeez! I chose the parts, it's the only thing I could afford at the time ok? Are you suggesting it's a bottleneck?

It doesn´t really seem so good, I watched the gameplay video and... not bad... not amazing. And I was expecting poor PC performance... U_u there´s tons of PC games with terrible optimization, is really annoying, who wants to buy a PC game this way? You never know if is going to run fine even knowing the requirements... That´s a way to approach people to piracy, because you need a pirate version to know if the game runs properly before you spend 60$ on it... and is easy to think... well, i´m not paying now that i have it...
