By "8 core" i meant 8 threads. And that's what they mean by 8 core in the system requirements they posted. (look at the examples). Anyway i would just play it on High. (the i7 3770 is insignificantly faster than the i5 4670) Also i just saw that the 4670 is 4 threads :D. pfff oh well who cares :D i've been playing games on Low up until now i think i will be fine on high :D.

So...
Recommended is specs for PC end up fairly close to projected specs for the Xbone and PS4. This mostly, just indicates that the game's optimized for that - and it's not surprising since that way they can cover the largest part of the installation base in one go.
(Biggest difference I see there is that PC will require more memory - again not unexpected as most PCs don't run stripped-down, purpose-tailored operating system that minimizes footprint.)
Minimum specs compare to a few-year old off-the-shelf build PC, so that's not bad either.
So why are people getting worked up about this again ?
To me this is nothing that doesn't happen every time a new console generation kicks off and consoles catch up to PCs momentarily in terms of power. So I don't see what the fuss is about.
The one thing that might throw people for a loop is the bit where it requires a 64-bit OS - this looks like it's going to be one of the first mainstream games that makes that a hard requirement. (Previous games stuck to 32-bit, or provided both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.)
But anyone running even the minimum specs has a rig that can run 64-bit OS, and probably does. (Wether they realize or not)

Looks like I'll be picking this up for the PS4. Was really hoping to get it on PC, but I just barely meet the minimum requirements.

I didn't expect anything like this for at least another 1 and a half years. :3 Damn you 32-bit OSes!!! Was really looking forward to this.. :/
Even sadder that I can still push an ultra out of other newer games like Tomb Raider and BioShock Infinite. :3

These are not the official specs, a Ubisoft developer even came out and said that real system requirements will be much lower.
People are not complaining because the requirements are high they are complaining because to have requirements this high already would mean that the game is not optimized properly because it has not shown us anything special in the graphics department. Regardless even if these specs were real I would still be able to run this game at ultra on my rig.

Interesting. Time to hold off on a new PC until the benchmarks are out (was settled on a 4670K).

HD6800 should be enough but I only have E8500 Dual Core =/
