sorry I didnt read that thread :oops: but can I still run that game with these specs eventhough it has crappy graphics?

if your graphic card supports pixel shader 3.0 then yes

Wed Oct 22, 2008 5:38 pm

but it doesn't..then no.

Do you think that an 8600gt can run this game at high and ultra high settings?

Thu Oct 23, 2008 9:17 pm

@lj_umali

yes it can run in ULTRA HIGH SETTINGS

Thu Oct 23, 2008 11:03 pm

Kris thanks for the heads up!

Thu Oct 23, 2008 11:13 pm

well, I think the possibility of running the game in ultra high setting is more a matter of the processor. If you have a dual core processor in adition to that graphic card you can run the game in ultra high settings without problems

you need a better graphics card to play this game. NVIDIA 6600 is the lowest

Fri Oct 24, 2008 9:06 am

I have a decent video card (ATI 1600 Pro 512MB) but I am unsure on my processor. I have a AMD 64 3500, which is 2.2GHZ single core, will the game be playable even though it's under the requirements? If it's not any recommendations on new processor?

it will be playable but it will go really slow. might be time for you to upgrade

Fri Oct 24, 2008 9:20 am

any recommendations on new cpu?

Fri Oct 24, 2008 11:06 am

jlit, i suggest you to choose Dual instead of the Quad. :)

Fri Oct 24, 2008 11:08 am

if you have enough money to buy new hardwares then i prefer to buy QUAD but if your short of money then buy the DUAL CORE

Fri Oct 24, 2008 12:31 pm

hey guys i have a intel pentium 4 2.8
1.5gb ram and a 512mb 7300gt. Will i be able to run the game? :cry:

Fri Oct 24, 2008 6:31 pm

OtiS, it looks like you will be able to run the game on low to medium settings. You might be able to put a few things at high with the 512 mb of video ram. You won't be able to enjoy moving uniforms with that single core processor, though.

Fri Oct 24, 2008 8:29 pm

help. i've installed the game and when i opened it, its all black, i can see my cursor though and etc... what should i do???

Fri Oct 24, 2008 8:34 pm
