The 8 minute video from yesterday mentions DLC, including an "expansion" (their wording). The season pass costs a Destiny-esque $35! I wonder how much extra content is in all of that. Might get me to buy the game digitally. Edit: $25 for the season pass. Still curious (in a good way) how much extra content that will mean. Another 6 - 10 hours after all is said and done? canyonero fucked around with this message at 15:04 on Sep 26, 2014 |

We're inviting a bunch of readers to play Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor at IGN's London office a day before release, so you can slaughter orcs before anyone else. I think someone hosed the dates up. It comes out next Tuesday right?

shakey kneebones posted:Less than a week from release and only now you let them know you aint down with the Lord of the Ring aspects here? Maybe give them a call before they start next time so they don't have to throw away several years of work Well I wasn't excited since the preview, but I had just figured it'd be one of those throwaway LOTR games like LOTR: Conquest or the DOA Guardians of Middle Earth. I'm glad the game is good, but the lore is a clusterfuck and doesn't even make any sense.

Is there a way to get pre-order bonuses without buying it from those stores? I have a Target gift card that I want to use.  Or does Target sell Amazon gift cards in the store? I assume not....

I haven't ready anything about this game until now, and now I'm stoked. The first world problem now: Play on PC in all of 2560x1440's glory, or be lazy and plop down on the couch with the PS4 and TROPHIES.

They will probably come out as DLC later on and/or bundled in the inevitable 'Definitive Edition' that's released in nine months time. This isn't guaranteed though, no matter how likely.

Last time I had to fiddle with RAM values (S.T.A.L.K.E.R.) it used RAM+VRAM for the total. 6GB seems like a pretty typical 2GB VRAM + 4GB RAM combo, but I could be completely wrong!

Just bought through Nuuvem, wish they were letting me buy the season pass- Steam won't let me because the game hasn't been activated in my account yet, those dogs, so I can't get it for 8 bucks off  .Anywhere else I can get the season pass for cheaps now? Wanted to get it on PS4, but a hopeful grand total of 46 bucks for all content beats 85 for the same thing.

Edit: this is what I did when Steam wouldn't let me buy the season pass during the 30% off sale

1stGear posted:4 GTX Titans jfc I remain baffled as to either A) Why PCGamer blew their PC building budget for six decades or B) What terrifying number their PC budget is. Two things that video happily confirms though; PC controls are Batman PC controls, and stealth AI is still video game stealth AI.

Yeah, I'm excited for all the different combat animations. It's probably what I love most in the Arkham and Assassin's Creed games (lunging at someone with a tomahawk never got old for me). The stealth kills had some variety to them too, from that PC video (throat slitting vs. stab in the side of the face for example).
