"Reccomended" Specs Change

[Bon3z]

Looks like they've upped the recommended requirements. Now a 570 instead of a 560.

But look at the following article, I can hardly see the differences between high and ultra. As long as you are "close" to high, the game is going to look dramatic I think.

But good thing I ended up buying a better card I guess.

What setting do you guys use for "Motion Blur"?
I always turn that stuff off. It looks disorienting IMO.

Meh. I was happy with the 560 in the beta.

I also shut "motion blur" off. I don't think it looks good, and it makes it more difficult for me to see things.

Yeah that is one thing to have turned off for sure.

I have a 460 and the beta looked just fine for me. My plan was to SLI a pair of 460s, but now I think I'll be content with what I already have.
