Cloud support and storage...

[elemileTLDR]

Two quick questions:

1) Is cloud support coming anytime soon?
2) Is it really 34 GB storage as advertised?

The second one is because it seems most excesive for this game (which was about 3GB on PS2 and 6GB at PS3) and I've found such mistakes at store pages before.

1) No idea, PC Gaming Wiki[pcgamingwiki.com] lists Cloud as supported, and the save files are stored where Cloud saves are usually stored I think, but going into properties the Cloud settings/info aren't displayed there like they normally are for supported games. I didn't test whether cloud saves work or not.

2) After installation it's 26.7GB for me. I think it's mostly because of high resolution videos - "movie" folder takies 17GB, the rest is maybe higher res textures.

Cloud is already supported, at times I play on a desktop and others on a laptop and the save is always the lastest one.

That's great news.

Except my older PC's GPU doesn't support DirectX 11 so can't play the game during xmas holiday :s

You could always try using integrated graphics (if available), it may, ironically, support it. :b

Just remember to store game files on a flash drive or external hdd so you don't have to download it all again.

it's Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 from 2007 or so, no integrated graphics :D

GTX 260 would be powerful enough for the game but sadly it's incompatible.

Welp, gg then.

There's always a slim chance that it doesn't actually require DirectX11, and that they just wrote it in system requirements because that's the DX version of the GPUs that they put in there as well.

Unless someone actually tested that it indeed doesn't run on previous DX versions. In that case, maybe hope Santa brings you a gtx 460 ;P

Nah, I have GTX 960 on my newer PC but it's a shame I won't be able to play during the next couple of weeks cause I'm visiting my parents (the old gaming PC now serves for paying bills)

How about taking the 960 with you and swapping it with 260 for the time you'll be staying there? 960 and 260 should have similar power requirements and connectors if I remember correctly (2x 6pin or maybe 6pin + 8pin), if anything 960 might need less power so you should be good to go.

Ahah I guess I'm not that desperate for a couple of weeks, I still have plenty of games to play.

Would be kinda fun combo... Core 2 Quad @2.4 GHz, 3GB RAM and GTX 960 lol

Well, not so long ago that was pretty much my setup ;D Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3.2GHz, 4GB RAM, and a GTX 960. That's still a pretty decent CPU when overclocked ;P

I just found some article testing it in new games, couldn't even maintain 30 FPS with GTX 1070 despite being OCd to 3.1 GHz. Even new low-end Pentium and i3 did better

[Musk]

Yeah, newest games probably want a little more, but it worked great for me in slightly older titles, even played some games with 120+ fps with it. Most demanding game I played on it was GTA V I think, and it did 30-60 FPS if I remember correctly. Kinda jerky, but not unplayable ;p Pretty good for a ~10 year old CPU.
