Mainstream PC's aren't "Catching up", This isn't 2006, The PS4 and XBONED have cell phone CPU's and mid range laptop GPU's. When the next-gen consoles become more outdated and mainstream PC's catchup. BLaZiNgSPEED Posts: 79 Joined: Mon 8:09 am Location: London, UK
Maybe in 1-2 years time we can expect a full next-gen port when the next-gen consoles become more outdated and mainstream PC's catchup.īut until there's no competition, we are likely to get continued recycled versions of NBA 2K games on PC. And expecting a full next-gen port is also another tall order. The same goes for EA's NBA Live, there's more chance in the future of EA releasing NBA Live on PC, if 2K Sports continue to release their NBA game on PC.īut in the meantime we can only hope to have the games being released to PC. If there was another company making NHL on PC, EA would be more likely to release the game on PC. I posted the same thing recently in EA's NHL forum in a thread stating the same reason why NHL isn't being released on PC. The only reason EA even bothers to port FIFA anymore at all is because PES releases on PC, All of they're other sports games have no real competition on PC so they see no reason to release they're games on PC. With good optimization we could run it without problem and as I have seen fifa 14 on ps4 it have nothing special with graphics. Ps4 is powerful as normal pc with something around gpu gtx 650. Today people have really good pc so and I. And by the time we get a next-gen port, PS5/Xbox Two will come out lol & the same cycle will repeat once again.
FIFA 12 is when we had a 100% direct PC port of the next-gen version.Īnd now we are in the same vicious cycle since the release of the PS4/Xbox One Consoles. EA's excuse for this is that the average PC user doesn't have a high enough PC to handle the new Ignite Engine.īecause as you know EA recycled FIFA PS2 version from 04-10 for 6 years in a row before giving us a next-gen engine in FIFA 11 PC which was still not a direct port, was more of a hybrid. No, not going to be this year, not until maybe FIFA 2020.įIFA is going to be another Xbox 360/PS3 port.

In order to be able to run NBA 2K15 at a minimum standard for the game, you will need a CPU ranked better than Intel Core2 Duo or better, more than 2 or more GB RAM, a GPU that is better ranked than DirectX 10.1 compatible (512 MB) or better, while the PC system is running on Windows 7 64 bit or higher.
