Is that win10 thing true? The devs do know that most people will have made the jump from win7/8 by now...

I've been having no problems playing games on win10 though, even older games like C&C: Tiberium Wars, so perhaps it wont matter. Be ♥♥♥♥ if it simply wont run on win10

According to Steam, less than 0.1% are using Windows 10. Not everyone is eager to jump to a new OS when everything works fine on their current one, as well as there being 0 reason to upgrade. DX12 won't be the norm for a long time.

There is 0 reason to Not upgrade either. That works both ways. I upgraded from windows 7, and the only ''problem'' (steam blocks ni-g-g-le, lol) i've had with it is that its more like windows 8 design wise, but thats something people can get used to.

There is reason to not upgrade.

• As with all new operating systems, there will be bugs. People like to wait for fixes.
  
• There's restricted control over certain processes. People like the ability to disable certain functionalities in 7, 8 and 10 don't offer this.
  
• The whole spyware thing.
  
• People might not like change.
  
• No benefit to upgrading.

Good enough list for me to not move to 10.

[-Digital¹]

- 0 bugs here, i'm sure 7 and 8 has its fair share of bugs too
- No idea about that, so cant say yay or nay
- What spyware thing?
- Change happens all the time, its something people deal with daily
- No loss either. The features of 7/8 you mentioned not everyone will use. Not to mention win10 having features the others do not

Now, back to the point, which was if the game is even going to function on win10

[Tumas Altaawus]

7 has had enough time to have plenty of bug fixes.

The game will support 10. Whilst it's not official, other games already support 10 without officially supporting it. When 8 was new, this was also a concern but I only ever recall 1 game not working with 8 and that was due to DRM.

except for my cpu being an i3-4160. all other minimum requirements are met, specially the graphics card since it recommended the exact one i have in my pc

Off Topic: Do the Nvidia codes get the Steam preorder bonuses, too?

Sadly, no. I've just redeemed the code and it only adds TPP to your library and no giftable GZ.

omg ofc

For those worrying about Windows 10 support: devs are basically telling us "it will probably work fine, but we cannot guarantee, that it's won't have some Windows 10 specific glitches, because we cannot do proper testing in just one month"
P.S: I was running GZ maxed out on i5 3450 (3.1 Ghz, Quad-core) and it worked perfectly fine for me.

true and GZ already works fine on Windows 10

[Sexy Sadie]

What about an Intel Core i5-4690 3.50GHz (4CPUs)? I know I'm above minimum requirements but yeah.

It had occasional stuttering/hitching for me in win10 home 64-bit, back on win7 home 64-bit, so glad i didn't give win10 another try out now the system specs support win7 64-bit, maybe later down the line when konami allow funds for testing and patching win10 might be worth another bash?.

I may have the chance of running this at triple monitor or even at 4k. Are those supported natively or do we have to work our magic with it?

Performance: At reference speeds, our GeForce GTX 980 ran at a locked 60 frames per second all the way up to 2880x1620 in our demanding benchmark run, which goes from the night time entry point to the Armory, where a reflective puddle awaits. Past the gates, performance at 3325x1871 was a hair's breath from 60 FPS, and with a small overclock we soon achieved a locked 60 across our entire run. 60 FPS at 3840x2160, however, remained out of reach, even with an overclock, requiring us to turn SLI on for maximum quality, max performance Metal Gear fun.

The Phantom Pain, like Ground Zeroes, will support 4K resolutions. There will also be some extra unspecified Nvidia GeForce visual effects wizardry. That normally means extra physics clutter and fancy reactive smoke. I'm holding out for cutting-edge goat hair.
