I've searched around this forum, among others, and haven't found a definitive answer. Has there been any word on what the system requirements are for this game?

Not as yet, no. CA has said they're still working on optimizing the game, and that they don't want to release system specs until they have a better idea as to what they'll actually be.
That said, I strongly suspect the majority of us will need to either upgrade or purchase a new machine entirely. (My computer will not quite two years old by the time ETW is released, so hopefully I'll only need to do the former.) :sweatdrop:
Judging from the screenshots, I'm not anticipating a huge leap over MTW2 requirements. My guess would be that CA is a little scared that they lost some customers over this earlier and they want to keep it looking good while not going the Crysis route. There's some real popular game w/ very good, but not necessarily cutting edge graphics...what's it called...hmmm...oh yeah, WoW. I'll add some annoying baseless speculation: Dual core proc, 256 mem video card, 1 gb ram as minimums...and there it'll run shoddy.
Just tell the wife: new game, new pc! And get it over with :beam:Quote:

Yeah, I'm really hoping that I won't have to upgrade my video card at all, as at least the one I have now still allows me to run MTW. I'm paranoid that I won't be so lucky if I have to replace/upgrade it.... :gah2:
Im expecting an 8600 at least to play this.
Yes that is indeed a problem. My PC is 2 1/2 years old and I have not replaced my 7800GT. Maybe the newest ATI cards still work with MTW or it's time to say goodbye to a good old friend...Quote:
