Why does this want to install AMD CPU drivers on my Intel i7 CPU?
On the initial install/setup of the game, its wanting to install those drivers.

I don't even have AMD.

However, I rejected that particular install. I wont have any issues will I? Has anyone else rejected it and been fine ever since?

I never had this issue, and I use an i7-6700k. In fact, this is the first I've heard of this issue. As long you your drivers are working, there's no reason for AMD drivers. You should be good to go.

What kind of gpu do you use? Is it an AMD?

GTX 1070. I don't use anything AMD. Its weird its asking to install some drivers that are not compatible at all with what I have.

This makes me wonder if this can cause some fatal issues with your system for those of us that do download them and have intel/GTX.

Edit: I wonder if its a Unity thing asking for it? Something to do with Unity? Either way, the game loaded fine and a solid 60 FPS for me. I played around for around 30 minutes without issue. But it asking to install those drivers bother me. Maybe the dev can answer the whys.

Anyone?

The game engine is UDK, not Unity. As for the GPU, there should be no confilcts. AMD drivers will only be used by AMD products. Maybe Steam just had a momentary lapse of reason, a brain fart, if you will. Could be just a ghost of a past piece of hardware. My money is on a brain fart.

Take a screen shot of the message you get and post it...sounds odd as I don't think the game itself cares at all and I can't see why UDK would care either.

Yeah. This is exactly what I came looking for. Initially installing the game and the first thing that pops up is a EULA for AMD CPU Drivers. I just now rejected that one and now have UDK's EULA. I have an i7-7770k and GTX 1080 ti. So there is no reason at all why anything AMD should have popped up for me. Which would mean that it's built into the game's first time setup. To me, it's kind of really stupid to have AMD's in there.

did the same on my end, the installer launching, but since I'm using a full intel/Nvidia based system too, it seems it didn't install anything on my box

C'mon devs, what gives?
If you reject the first AMD license agreement, then when you get to the UDK license agreement, read down a ways and you find the exact same AMD license agreement embedded in the UDK license agreement. If you "accept" the UDK license, you are also accepting the AMD license. I am using an ATI graphics card which is now owned by AMD, so the license would make sense for the GPU, but not the CPU which is Intel on my system. Why the cloak & dagger? Why trick us into thinking we rejected the AMD license just to slip it in on the QT in another agreement? Deceitful and crooked if you ask me, but it's what I would expect from a company that has its roots in stealing technology from Intel in the first place....

My most recent install I have encountered this as well, on an intel system. I have encountered no issues because of it though.
