Any nvidia users pick this up yet?

I have it for xbox one...thinkiing of double dipping

[Ruck]

Gears 2 is my favorite. Any news if that will be on PC?

fukk that

It's not even downloading on the app store for me. Plus, I can't get permission to the folder for some strange reason to change the install directory. Win10 store is terrible

 

[Ciggavelli]

double

 

[Ciggavelli]

Man, Win10 store downloads are slow as fukk and get hung up constantly. fukk this shyt

they need to get their shyt together. if this was on Steam, I would have copped. but all this talk about the limitations of the store, and the games on it, is keeping me away

I already regret buying this.

I wanted to check out dx12 though, and it was only $30

I guess I will in 20 hours, with these damn slow download speeds

lol, did you get the new nvidia driver?

 

[MeachTheMonster]

I was thinking about it but I'm scared to upgrade to windows 10

 

[Ciggavelli]

Yeah I did. I was gonna play Far Cry Primal today, but I gotta wait for this fukking GOW download to finish first...

Win 10 is great breh. I was scared too, but no problems so far. Even my VPN works

 

[Ciggavelli]

It finally finished downloading the 52gb

Just played for a bit. It runs smoothly at ultra on 1440p. But, Win10 store problems persist.

60fps lock
No sli support
No AMD support
Broken AO apparently
Graphics that aren't even that good

The Win10 store better get its act together. I wanna play Quantum Break on PC, but if this shyt continues, I'm playing it on my X1. No sli means no 1440p all ultra, when a 980ti is recommended for ultra at 1080p.

The Win10 store is trash.

Don't buy this game, and probably never buy a game off the Win10 store at all.

This should be on steam. fukk M$ for making this a Win10 store exclusive

Well they DID fulfill their end of the bargain when they said they're bringing Xbox games to PC.
