Forums - PC Discussion - Gears Of War 4 To Be A Serious Technical Pusher On PC

Well, The big games that MS released on PC post Windows 10 are: (I might miss some so correct me if I am wrong)

Killer Instinct - Hit
Gears of War Ultimate - Miss
Forza 6 Apex - Hit but still in Beta
Quantum Break - Miss
ReCore - Miss
Forza 3 Horizon - Miss

I see more misses than hits. Now I don't mean quality of the game or anything, I mean from a purely optimization standpoint compared to X1. I don't expect to get console level optimization but I do expect a 970 to perform more than what they did in those games.

And yes, PC games are a hit or a miss but other companies who have more misses than hits on their big games also get that stamp.

Forza 6: Apex is no longer in beta, and it would be irrelevant if it was. You can minimze Gears Ultimate all you want, but the game performed quite well for many people. Quantum Break, Forza Horizon, and ReCore (and this one is a stretch) are the only true misses on the list. So, no, nothing has moved, or will, here.

Thus, after these two posts, we're moving on, as the purpose of this topic is not about defending or opposing UWP or past UWP titles. A new thread? Go for it.

Alright will move on.

I didn't realize it was out of Beta since I searched up Forza 6 Apex on Windows Store and it says Beta is Brackets. Weird

My 980ti is ready.

Loving how the use of AA and AO doesn't negatively impact performance considerably.

Technical Pusher AKA lack of optimization.

Most games should play just fine on $400 PC setups if the developers had the time to optimize.

I think they do play fine if you don't max out all the graphics settings.

All of MS's games seem to be playable on a relatively cheap card like a 750 ti.

Looks nice and hopefully this is what devs will do with Scorpio next year. Implement more foliage, better lighting and stuff. Higher resolution and less annoying aliasing is nice but a more "living world" is what I want to see.

Not that the games are way more fun with it or anything but it is still nice to look at.

Was burnt out on this series after the third one. Didn't even bother with the prequel because I hate prequels. I had no issues missing this one because I didn't have a X1 but it's nice that I get to play it now on my PC. The only thing I don't like is that it looks like you'll be playing as Marcus Fenix's son and that sucks.

Unlocks this weekend! Woot!
