PC gamers shouldn't be angry about it, they can't even play it on higher graphics.
Unless you are running a dual gpu configuration, but they can't consider the dual gpu users into their market share for obvious reasons.

Yea. You're gonna have a bad time. Rofl.

Benchmark was clearly just that, a benchmark. I feel sorry for anyone that insists on AA on that sort of resolution, and I consider myself picky about "it looking as best as it could look."

I do agree that people need to calm down. While I wish that the game did look as awesome as the demo in the OP, you have to admit it still looks great. Hop on a jet ski and ride on some water and stuff. Its gorgeous.

I understand why people are upset about it but I think calling it just a horrible port etc is a little harsh. I know my 670 is maxed out the entire time I play it.

27" 1440p and I can't see a reason to use AA. When the pixel pitch is that fine, I gain very little with AA but take a massive performance kick in the nuts if I use it.

Maybe it just me though, someone earlier disagreed quite strongly branding high resolutions/no AA people snobs lol

Maybe I'm just not as sensitive to it as some.

Some devs like to take into consideration higher resolutions and a minimal playable fps. If the graphics were better and got the AA disabled, will you still be satisfied getting a sluggish 30ish fps over the highest end single gpu configuration on the market? I doubt it.

But the single GPU crowd can still play on the same settings as they do now... Higher settings don't hurt them, it's a win-win for everyone. People with multiple GPUs get better graphics now and people with single GPU systems get them when they upgrade.

What we should be furious about is how they yanked PC splitscreen from steam and their own site ONE DAY before European release. I bought the game for that feature.

http://www.co-optimus.com/article/8473/far-cry-3-follow-up-questions-plus-new-co-op-campaign-trailer-and-images.html <- Official article, was on their own site, now is gone.

FALSE ADVERTISING. STILL CO-OP ON CONSOLES. THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DO DX11 SPLIT SCREEN SOON ANYWAY, WITH NEXT GEN CONSOLES.
