I think it's a great engine. It seems to have been programmed very well; I can only imagine that the latest iteration will only be better and perhaps even more stable.

Even today's Mid range PCs that were 2 years ago, considered THE best, cannot run RTW smoothly with all the settings turned up. I seriously doubt CA are going to try and push the hardware limit to 2010. With all this graphics engine tearing apart, surely they are going to make it alot better in terms of performance.
I have a three year old PC and have few problems running RTW (all archer armies with flaming arrows on is the exception here). It actually runs better than MTW for some reason.Originally Posted by DarKorg
80% of what can be done with a computer is due to programming anyway, that's why games that look like they were made in '96 can run slower than a game with a lot of bells and whistles. The other 20% is due to (video) memeory, that might mean I need a new graphics card![]()

Well I thought I would never be able to run RTW at first but when I tried the demo it ran very smooth and the retail version ran even better.
I use "huge" setting and only have lag on really huge battles.
I don't think the specs for MTW2 will be very different from RTW, maybe a little increase like 1.2ghz processor instead of RTW's 1.0 Ghz.
CA are a pretty good at optimising their engines as well.
My computer is at least 3 years old. I can't even play big battles on large unit size. I think my limit is 3400 soldiers, and after that I get poor graphics.
I hope to get a new system in time, but it's doubtful.
