Just Cause 4 was unveiled during Microsoft's press conference, and we of course captured it in 4K and high quality. Now let's just hope this episode's performance will be better than the previous one...
Really liked Just Cause 3, but people who didn't play it and are interested in JC4 should know that Avalanche Studios never bothered to fix any of the performance issues and many bugs in JC3, be it on consoles or on PC. Instead they chose to release DLCs and ignore the game's community.
It was specially bad on consoles, and those same problems are still in the game to this day. If the developers haven't learnt their lesson, they will not support JC4 after release if it runs badly and/or have severe bugs. Buyers beware.
They deserve another chance, maybe it was the publisher's (Square Enix) fault also.
But true, nobody should purchase this without waiting for reviews first.

I'm appreciated for the info which you give. I was planning to buy JC3. I'm a little bit confused though. Because you said you've fun with that but it has a lot of issues at the same time. So, can you advice this game?

do you have a decent PC/PS4 Pro? (i assume xbox one x?) because the only real issue with the game is performance related (mechanically it's ok). boost mode rectifies majority of it on PS4Pro, but base PS4/xbox one it's a bit of a mess since it has frequent very low framerates. PC i assume you can just brute force the game into performing better?

Right. I think programmable shaders were adopted fairly early on consoles (xbox360/ps3) (5 Days ago)

@toelessfoot: Well, only recently they have been. I think this is the first gen I've seen where PC's are playing catch up. Not through hardware power, but through development cycles (5 Days ago)

Yeah I think innovations on the console side are taken up more quickly by PC than vice versa because consoles are really lead platform for everything (5 Days ago)

At least for most gamers. Similar to when everything went to pci-e (6 Days ago)

I think we could be seeing a dramatic shift in PC hardware where it'll be essential to own both an SSD and a next gen card with the api's to use them. That also would probably require new motherboards (6 Days ago)

If a game is built from the ground up to take advantage of that, though... (6 Days ago)
