Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

It's good, crashed after prologue tho. Loading times are a bitch, but reloading from quicksaves goes pretty fast, so at least that's fine. The reason they have the pre order items was because of the dumbass preorder bonuses they have since scrapped, but they obviously can't drop them completely.

For anyone struggling with the ending of the prologue, sprinting to the helicopter and pulling the plug ends the level, otherwise you are fucked if you go for stealth.

After two weeks pass from the release date, you aren't getting 20% off. Best Buy gamers club applies 20% off to any new game any time. As long as it is new. Meaning a one year old new title. 20% off still.

My fault, I'm retarded. I thought you were saying you had to pre-order at least two weeks in advance after someone was saying they couldn't see the discount.

Played it for 30 minutes. I set everything to max and it lagged badly, Steam forums suggested turning MXAA off (I had set it manually to 8 since it defaults to off even when you select ultra) and Vsynch off. Fixed all the framerate issues I had at least.

So far, like white edges better than the yellow ones in HR. Bit more minimalistic. Graphics look decent, but lipsynching seems off (which I saw Lirik mention on twitch yesterday too. He thought they were so bad that it might be a bug).

Not read a single review for it, but anyone mention how long it is? Howlongtobeat has one that lists it at 25.5 hours, 1 longer than HR minus the extras. Fine that it ends in a cliffhanger, better than HR which then let you have three choices that didn't really matter since this game picks the canon ending for you.

For people that didn't play HR, there is the option to play a 12 minute video at the start of the game that recaps what happened. Goes through every chapter in order.

The czech is so adorable, and also really really bad

3.8 gig day zero update on PS4, downloading now before i can play. Damn UPS not delivering stuff till 4pm

Also the add on slip enclosed in the case gets you a couple outfits and an extra DLC mission, which itself is a 3 gig download - "Desperate Measures". pretty big for a preorder bonus

Some thoughts after 6 hours:

It's good, but the writing reminds me of Deux Ex 1 from time to time. Might be the czech throwing me off too, since they seem to use it rather arbitrarily.

Skills that let you access areas are much more important, wall punching and lifting heavy stuff is pretty useful if you don't max out hacking right away. Shooting seems to be more optional than ever.

There's a point where you get your augs back and the game resets all your skills you had up to that point - don't dump it into a single tree.

The special vision with the magpie upgrade is a lifesaver since figuring out what you can/cannot pick up will end up with you humping furniture in every single room, the levels are absolutely cluttered with random stuff and every flat I broke into looks like a hoarder lived there. It's also great to show you vents and breakable walls, since they don't exactly pop up.

So far the game is a lot of fun. Feels more open than the previous installment.

Those load times though. I feel like I'm playing EQ on dialup again. Seriously like 3-5 minutes when entering a new area for the first time.

Can anyone tell me their setting for this game with a GTX 1070 at 1440p? Anything above low graphics setting and I lag. I'm using the latest drivers.

i'm playing on ps4 not pc but apparently if you are on PC you should turn OFF MSAA, it fucks up performance badly

This game's graphic looks nowhere near as amazing at Witcher 3 and I get 60+FPS with high settings in W3. Granted, I've only seen this game at 10-20 FPS.

I don't know how some of these crashes even made it through playtesting. Crashed after the prologue like many people, crashed when I turned the TV on, crashed after exiting the train(when changing zones).

Lol literally paying more to play less. "Accelerate your gameplay" such b.s.
