Can anyone tell me whether I’ll be playable with a 5090 and a 9800X3D?

Are you aware you have a pretty much maxed-out Pc with that? You are above minimum for any game the next decade.

Sorry, didn’t expect a serious response, I was going for the lulz.

Ah, I know a few people who have the money to get something like that and still have no idea what that is worth. :joy:

Maybe I remember wrong, but they are asking to have a minimum requirement of 8 GB VRAM with the GTX 1660 when, as far as I remember, this graphics card never had an 8 GB variant? Not even the 1660 Super had more than 6 GB…

Another thing for @IOI_Artjoms.
There are multiple errors on the spec sheet: The I5 9500k doesn’t exist and neither does an RTX 3060ti with 16gb ram.

You are correct. They maxed out at 6 (and quite a few of the 16-- series had only 4). My guess is that they didn’t actually look up the technical specs of that series of cards and only included the video ram as an unrelated requirement.

Still, it’s encouraging to know that the game should run on a video card as “old” as one of those.

Can it run Crysis?

Prominent James Bond-franchise YouTuber Calvin Dyson - who is SUPER excited for more James Bond content - quite rightly putting IOI on blast for a bunch of their shitty AAA(nti-consumer) developer sales tactics for this game:

It’s funny, I think a lot of the early negative reactions to his new look are based on his hairstyle. Now that it’s a buzz cut in this presumably early mission people already react differently. If the hair was styled more grown up and flatter in general, he would be much easier to accept as Bond. I feel it myself. But they probably wanted that young, Nathan Drake look.

Ultimately, it’s gonna be interesting to see whether he is accepted as Bond when the game releases.

I’m not that concerned about the look. I’ve already excepted so many different Bonds in the movies. Never had a problem with that.

This, they would have either had to go with their own interpretation which is what they did. Or try to get the likeness of one of the many actors that played him

You’ve got a lot of leeway with Bond’s hair when you can get away with the objectively best Bond (fight me!) looking like this:

Bond having a perfect hairline isn’t even true to the source material bud had thin receding hair.
