Firewatch [OT] [PC/PS4] [Feb 9th, 2016]

[Leasy]

No sli support, but the game runs at a steady 60, ultra, at 1440p. No problems running this at all. I guess those rumors turned out to be false

Interesting art style too

Quick question if I buy another R9 290x will the video space double from 4 to 8GB. Excited to play this hopefully I can tonight.

no crossfire and sli don't double ram. It stays at 4gb in your case. It stacks with direct x 12 though. So if they game utilizes dx12 it might double it. But for everything else, it stays at 4gb

Just watched a walkthrough of the game, only lasted 2 hours but I think the guy just rushed through it, heres the ending for anyone who's interested...

Spoiler: major spoilers

Turns out their convos on the radio were being recorded. It seems at first like some government operation but turns out to be some guy called Ned who killed his son and became some sort of hermit afterwards. I thought Delilah would have something to do with it but turns out she didn't, also thought we might see her at the end but she got on the first round of rescue helicopters instead of waiting like she said she would. Still found that quite mysterious. But yeah ending was anti-climatic.

Ok damn. R9 290x can I get 1080P full 60 or more?

The map is pretty small and I'm already on day 87

I don't know how far along I am, but shyt just got interesting. I like the game so far

Peep my post a few replies up, spoilers though.

I just played for 3 hours straight and got 4 out of 5 achievements. I think I'm almost done

There's a good mystery here. I can't wait to find out what the fukk is going on. So far it runs perfectly (even with no sli support). A few graphical glitches here and there, but nothing too serious. I think I'll probably beat this tonight or tomorrow.

Not that I've encountered, but something sinister is going on.

If I'm able to beat this in an hour or so more tonight, I'm gonna go out and say it's not worth $20. The game would be way too short. And there's no need to explore around the map, it's pretty barren.

the framerate is horrible on the ps4. Some parts of the fukking game wont even load

Damn breh. I heard it was bad on ps4, but I didn't know how bad. Us PC folks got lucky. It runs perfectly for me (first game in a long time)

yea fam it's pretty bad on the ps4. It got the point that im just gonna wait for a patch

Just beat it. It's the definition of a walking simulator. The story was mysterious and good, but the ending was a letdown. I give it a 7.5 outta 10. Don't buy it for $20. Wait for the inevitable sale when it's $10.

There seems to be no replayability though, because there really aren't any choices. It's more like a linear movie that you just watch.

There's less interaction than Telltale games and the landscape is barren as fukk.

This would be a great oculus rift game though. I hope they port that in somehow. I'd replay it again with my rift if they did, just to experience the atmosphere and great art direction in VR.
