System requirements?

[Schmidti]

Somebody got an idea what the requirements for this game are? If we can Black Flag on ultra then this game should run on ultra aswell right? o.o

[RandyMarsh]

I don't think so.
But you can count on mid settings,for sure

[RaiEduHar]

If you could run Black Flag on ultra, you can probably run this game on ultra to.

[Schmidti]

If you sell something you need to have these system requirements present on the first day it's being sold. For me, no system requirements, no buy. And I would go so far to say, no demo, no buy. Since nowadays system requirements / canyourunit doesn't realy apply, with all the bad console ports that are PC beta versions that need about 3 months extra development before it runs at all on PC.

I agree with this.
Now it looks like it's in fashion to sell games without specifying what kind of PC you need to run it... The witcher 3, Far cry 4 and AC unity etc. You can buy them but they'll tell you what the requirements are after release (when people starts reporting lag and fps drops etc. so they can have a better idea. That's how you test it nowdays).
At least in case of the Witcher they are taking their time in order to optimize the game so I genuinely believe they don't know what's min or what's reccomended yet.

But these two UBI games will be out in few months, are they still testing hardware or they don't want to scare away potential customers with demanding requirements?
A la' "buy the game now we know you want this! We'll let you know if you need a new machine to run it later on, but buy it now cos you want this!"

Isn't there a law or a regulation that forces software developers to specify the requirements of their softwares? It's that way for hard copy softwares and it used to be that way with digital copies. Ubi is a big multinational videogame developer, come on test it before you sell it!
If you want sell it then tell us what's needed to run it. You "don't know" then you can not sell this.

BTW "good job" to Steam for allowing this to happen

Tech Spechs!

What are they? Why will I buy something may or may not be able to handle. Please tell me!

[HenryNoble]

GBS ?

how many gbs does he have?

[baddude1337]

I'm guessing you mean how much space it will take up on your HDD, and nobody knows as no specs have been released.

[phylum sinter]

correct, not yet known.

Best guess would be to look at the latest open-world Ubisoft Game (Watch Dogs) and guess a little more than that.

Watch Dogs is 13.9gb installed, even though the system requirements state you should have 25gb free.

[HenryNoble]

thanks !!!

[Misantrophian_666]

my thoughts exactly. Can´t understand that they want us to preorder, and the don´t even tell us the requirements. There is only two months left until release.COME ON ALLREADY!

That's because Uplay downloads a 10GB installer first before installing the 14GB game. 10GB + 14GB = 24GB

Just saying, how many AAA games release demos with their games? Not very many
