Can we have the benchmark already?

Hey there,

I believe the role of the benchmark, apart from the cool cutscenes and stuff, is to check whether or not can play the game well.

Since the preorders for heavensward are open, how come we did not get the benchmark yet?
Could be nice to run the benchmark BEFORE making the purchase, don't you think?

It's coming in 2/3 weeks, please be patient

Because it is ready at the end of april

They'll probably announce when it's coming out at the next live letter, which is in 2 weeks from now. Doubt we'll see it before the letter, but they already said it's coming out sometime in April.

There's live letter on 11th April, so it's either before or after that. Letter from the Producer LIVE Party XX

Give it some time :)

Fixed that for you.

The bachmark is coming around the end of the next month. Please look forward to it.

I'm assuming that one can "pre-order" the game right up until early access, but you should have time between then and the release of the benchmark to purchase the product.

I can't wait for benchmark!

Hopefully the Au Ra will have muscle tone adjuster for females as well as males and some interesting tail/horn designs!!

They aren't raising the specs.. If you are currently playing you can run the expansion. Even when DX11 is added its not like they are removing the ability for it to run on DX9. So, there is already a benchmark for testing the game, this is just an updated one.

But let's be honest, we are all just excited to play with the creator and see fancy new areas.

pretty sure I remember them saying you could have both versions(DX9 and DX11) on your PC at the same time and that they had no plans to discontinue DX9 anytime soon so.

Patience, Larek-san. It's supposed to be sometime in April. :3

I can't wait for the new benchmark but they already announced that it would be coming soon. No need for these threads to be popping up.

Been promised for "probably in the second half of April" - I think the words were approximately something like that, by Yoshi himself.

My guess would be he's gonna announce it at the next live letter, maybe "you'll be able to download it next week" or some such.

He said at the PAX east, "in one month". So that would mean around the next live letter.

Yoshi-P said April 25th-26th. Source: http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/125...29-Translation

About when in April are you planning to release the benchmark software for Heavensward?
Y: I think we'll be publishing it perhaps around Niconico Super Conference (April 25-26) as part of our exhibit.
