In final options there won't be NV Ansel (as now it's replaced by own in-game photomode) and there will be a few more gfx options (e.g. temporal AA, fog quality).

That's great, no features only for specific GPU owners (and I'm saying this as a GTX 1070 owner).

Certain upgrade items (gems, etc) will only drop in co-op mode and will have co-op specific buffs (IE: raises the chi regeneration of your teammates.) I think that's what he's referring to.

I sincerely hope they didn't skimp on the single player campaign in favor for the multilayer aspect! As I just bought the pre order!

Oh boy, pre-ordering games after all...

about HDR support does it mean that it will work onlly on 4k Tvs that has HDR included? Since there is monitors currently avaliavle with HDR support. Can you try and see if there is a way to enable this feautre on ,on monitors too? I have a 24'' 1440P 60 HZ IPS monitor.

Also why you decided to not use denuvo since it is the most powerful DRM currently and in fact the only one who takes months to get cracked? Dont you want to ensuer the most sales possible? Do you want people to pirate your game at release date? You know that with denuvo you will force many pirates to buy the game instead of waiting months to get cracked

FWH is a small studio and we need to pick our battles carefully. We decided to focus on good single player experience and add optional co-op to that. Despite that, we had to delay some things like consoles or Linux/Mac. We simply don't have the required manpower and budget to do good PvP on top of planned features.
You should give the thread a read.

Your display has to be HDR capable, the only way to enable it on a moitor is if it supports it.

No DRM is not a bad thing, makes me feel they have confidence that thier game is worth it, like the witcher 3 had zero issues. Most people who pirate will not buy a game with drm but will wait for it to get cracked. A game that just launched like mafia in it's state should of had drm, because you piss off the pc community with bad half ass ports people will pirate it because it's an $80 alpha release.

You need to have a HDR display in order to use that feature. Currently there are no consumer monitors with HDR support.

We don't support piracy, but currently there isn't a good way to stop it without hurting our customers. Denuvo means we would have to spend money for making a worse version for our legit customers. It's like this FBI warning screen on legit movies.

Even if I personally dont mind Denuvo THAT much I can see why it can hurt a customer trust and cause some unessesary troubles, and also considering how expensive it is, its just not worth anyone's time.

Kudos.

There is no need to try to stop file sharing. It is free advertisement for the game. Many new potential customers to be had. You can be confident that if the product is good it get what it deserves. Just look at the witcher and game of thrones.

No DRM is a GREAT selling point otherwise gog would be out of business by now.
