Ooof that's unfortunate for Intel. They were building some momentum and credibility in the GPU market that might have helped the future release of Battlemage, and this could put a dent in that.

Jesus fuck, "advanced access?"
It's when they let you pay more to play on release day instead of having to wait a few days like a peasant.
In this case, it's closer to paying to beta test.
We already had that - it's called "early access." But people gunked that up, so they have to roll along the euphemism treadmill, and make a fancier name for paying extra to get an incomplete game.
"Premature installation" didn't test well.
I don't have download limits... but my 400Mbps download speed is accompanied by only 20Mbps upload...
Arc is having a lot of issues with older games as well. I can't run Quake II RTX in raytracing mode & the Neverwinter Nights toolset doesn't work either.
As much as that would annoy me if I owned one, it’s somewhat understandable I think given those games were designed before this card or its GPU family existed, and they can’t possibly test a huge back catalog from 5+ years ago
testing their internet download limits
Sorry, it's not 2005, who has download limits any more 😂
Americans who have to use Comcast 🙃
Unlimited costs extra, so I canceled my CATV & landline with them to make up the difference, LOL.
More than in 2005, sadly. And it’s all Comcast.
Most Americans
A lot of people.
Even where there's no limits, if you use 100GB in a day or a few days time, you'll get throttled.
Sorry, it’s not 2005, who has download limits any more 😂
:(
My provider added data caps about 5 years ago.
I used to live in San Jose, the tech capital of the world. Comcast had a monopoly. Like there was literally no other option other than not having Internet. 1TB monthly data cap on all plans.
Everything old is new again!
It's going to take so long to download Starfield on my dsl internet that by the time it finally downloads, Starfield 2 will be out
