Media Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain & Ground Zeroes

[Solidus]

Do'nt think so, man

GZ on PC is one of the best ports I've ever seen. It's ****ing well optimized with better textures, shadows, lighting effects than PS4 and 2K-4K Resolution support in addition

I don't understand Why you give for granted that PC version has been developed by a different developer/team ? or that it will happen as with BAK? (PC port was developed By Iron Galaxy instead Rocksteady). Precisely what happened with BAK on PC, has had such a negative impact for both industry and users that I doubt very much that happen again,

According with Kojima itself, TPP was finished for quite some time, and what they have been doing since then is to polish, and readjust gameplay aspects related.

And since KojiPro had already disbanded a while ago, they're not the ones who're working (or who have been working) on the PC port.

GZ ended up being a good port, but you have to take into consideration that it's a very small demo compared to TPP. That's not to say that TPP will not end up being good, too, but personally I don't want to risk it on PC, since "Konami" only started developing it in July. To me, that just sounds like a rushed job, especially considering that GZ's PC release was nearly a year after it was released on the consoles.

Besides that, MGS just doesn't feel right on a PC. If there's any sort of exclusive functionality with the DS4 controller on PS4, you might be missing out on some things.

Konami "developing" anything, heh, no thanks.

IMO a lot of games don't feel right on PC...some do, like shooters, but a lot just don't.

GZ was pretty much a demo, and it's not hard to optimize something that small. Konami starting this only recently...not a good sign

very true

I knoooow right?

The only games I play on PC anymore are old PC games, and emulators.

I've got like, 30 games for PC and the only ones i think are better on console ( of what i own ) are Soul Reaver 1 and RE Revelations 2. Everything else runs like a dream for me. Having said that, ive never really played racing games on the PC. Ive always done that on consoles but i havent liked a Racer since Gran Turismo 5.

I actually bought a ps4 with the incentive to finally get one being that MGSV was going to be out 2 weeks earlier on consoles... but now this happened -_-

 

[ZombieRepublican]

Out of curiously could my 2011 MacBook handle the games from steam? Never got into PC handing since the 90s myself.

I suppose I don't need too since all the indies come to consoles now

You could probably play a game here or there with low to medium settings, but it is a bit dated, and alot of games are designed for windows. Steam is actually quite awesome, but you need to have a fairly decent PC with a modern windows to be " safe " ( fairly decent PC being one thats middle of the road price range, not a cheapo computer but not expensive. they wont be able to play new games at top spec, but you can still play everything)

If you dont have a need for a new computer for computing needs theres no reason to get one for games. But if the situation arises in the future where you may need a new one its worth having a think about throwing a few extra $ at it as it will essentially become another games console once you have the ram, graphics and processing power (not to mention the game library is essentially every game thats ever came out. not on steam, all though there is alot. But you can essentially get nearly every game ever to play on one via steam, ebay and even emulators).

Nah, guys, that's just "pleb" talk . 90 percent of current-gen games run better on PC than they do on the consoles, and that's indisputable. The only caveat is, that there are some instances, like Batman: Arkham Knight, where games are outsourced and suffer from poor development and optimization. I can't even imagine going back to 30fps gaming, it just doesn't look right, and controls aren't as responsive. But, at least a lot of love was put into TPP and you will be able to enjoy it at 60 fps on the PS4. It might be better on PC, but I just don't want to take the risk, considering that Konami only started developing it two months ago. It could be another sloppy port. And besides, KojiPro were always console developers, so, it would be advantageous to play their final game the way "eet was mean to be playd" (to quote the lolcat grammar of my good buddy, Ray - may he rest in peace).

I was going to buy a PS4 in 2013, and I'm glad I held it off . It would've been collecting dust.

90 percent probably is lower with games like the Assassin's Creed games

 

[Solidus]

Which run better on PC than on the consoles, and that's true for even AC Unity.

It looks like the same recommended and minimum specs for GZ. Let's see how they do this one...

 

[FSLAR]

^ Not really. Their specs are too high for their visuals, compared to other games released around their time. Revelations and Portal 2 for instance.

I don't buy it for AC Unity taken from what a friend told me if I recall. As for the settings, interesting...we should take bets for this

I'm an honest guy, and I won't take bets where the other person is guaranteed to lose. All of the AC games on PC have PhysX, increased draw-distances, anisotropic filter, anti-aliasing (which is completely missing from the consoles), increased foliage and population density. AND they can run at 60 fps at resolutions higher than 1080p. In comparison, with the consoles, you're capped at 30 fps, and stuck at 720p (and 900p the case for AC Unity). The consoles are just brutally underpowered by comparison. I'm not looking to start a flame war or anything, just stating how it is.

With various patches, AC Unity has improved vastly since its launch, but the game initially performed like **** regardless of the platform.

Also, Portal 2 makes use of the Source Engine which has been around since 2004, so that's not a good comparison there. It was revamped for better graphics effects, and compatibility with the consoles, but you can clearly see how the textures and lighting aren't any different from HL2.

In any case.... go buy yourself some PC games. It's a shame you've got a good machine and still have yet to actually play anything .

Pleb and proud.

keep me updated on Steam sales. I haven't seen much that really enticed me Along with retro games

Besides you know I've been playing some PC games lately. Not much, but some! Pay attention

 

[GasparZizou]

We know you're a pleb....for other reasons

Don't start again, see who's being rude now?

I'm a pleb on that specific topic you agree with, for other topics previously discussed I'm a patrician and your lord.

I'm not rude, I'm a troll.

Besides, I'm your parole officer

 

[GasparZizou]

Don't be silly, you can't parole/troll the almighty Gaspar.

 

[dominishin]

Gaming on macbook is a bad idea. They have terrible cooling solution... your machine will heat up like nuts and not be able to cool itself. Over time your card WILL burn out.

Unless you're playing half life 2 or something on a recent machine.
