Sega Releases Game Requirements

[hoetje]

Excellent,I'll probably run the game on med settings

[Polemists]

This is awesome I agree.


Trust me people you'd much rather have to buy some memory for a few bucks, then a $300 graphics card, or even worse, a whole new motherboard.


Regardless this is good news for most I think. 11 gigs is alot of space, hard to imagine a game that big.

[Soulflame]

Jey! Finally a use for all that harddisk space that I'm not using :p.

Mild requirements, as they promised. I'm happy, although I might upgrade anyway to see all the fine details better.

[hoom]

11GB would be max used during install.
It's not uncommon for game installs to require much more space for install than actual space used after install.

These are min specs ie running with most options at minimums & I wouldn't want to try running RTW on a PC with that specs...
I'd like to see their Recommended spec for M2TW but I'm pretty sure I'll be just fine.

[AussieGiant]

Hoom touched on my next thought.

Oookey, so if these are the Minimum Specs...what are the recommended specs??

I personally think when they publish the recommended specs, then a few people will see their toe nails curl.

I'd say;

2Ghz processor

1Gig ram

256mb Graphics card.

As for HD space...well, they could make it 50 gig and it wouldn't make much difference.

Hell, 200 gig hards drives are less than 150 bucks.

[Ringeck]

2Ghz processor

1Gig ram

256mb Graphics card.

Hmm. My comp is about at those specs, and almost two years old. I think we'll need something nastier.

[Wandarah]

Dont play a lot of games, huh?

[Incongruous]

Wandarah, now why would you post something like that? I mean, the guy was simply amazed at the amount of space the game takes up. You actually posted simply to put him down? You didn't even comment on the game.
Now This is OT but lately there has been alot of this, not just from you, but from alot of new Orgahs and it reminds me of the way the .com has turned out. Perhaps we could all just remind ourselves that not everyone wishes to start cyber posting wars. So perhaps you could think about that next time yoy feel the urge to go out of you're way and put someone down, howver overt you belive it to be I can still pick up on it.

I've noticed this myself. In fact I was recently picked up on one of my less than responsible posts lately, so I am not blameless.

[TB666]

Anyone know how you can check how fast your DVD-player is ??
I have looked everywhere but see no speed.

[caravel]

It is usualy on the label on top of the drive. If not look for a model number and try googling that. Most DVD drives are between 12 or 16 speed, unless you bought it years ago then it may be an 8 speed (slowest DVD drive I've encountered).

[Dan.o6]

Well I have 300GB so 11GB is nothing, my budget graphics card is the only problem, but on Low Graphics it should run fine.

[The Spartan (Returns)]

if i have 64 mb that also doesnt support Vertex Shader and Video HW Transform & Lighting do you think i can play it? i dont care ill put 800x600 res, i just need to play it!
im scared.

[Incongruous]

Ereven!
Oh well, I'll have to delete like the twenty odd MODs I have for RTW.
As already stated, I would much prefer the recommended specs along side the min. Guess I'll have to wait though.

[The Spartan (Returns)]

i still have 121 GB so space is certainly not a prob.

[HicRic]

If it doesn't support vertex shaders or hardware T&L then no, I think it won't work full stop, not even on very low settings. The minimum req. is a shader-capable card you see...

[Polemists]

I say wait, for those of you wondering I would say wait till demo. if you can run demo great, if not some of you may be forced to go get a new graphics card.

[The Spartan (Returns)]

well i have shader v2 and i have played many games that dont require T&L and Vertex Shader so any more thoughts?

[blahblahblah]

Will my NViDia (tell me how the cap goes) graphic card flow with M2TW right?

[Doug-Thompson]

Hmmmm. The impact on unit sizes is my main concern. Hard drives spaces is waaaaaay down the list.

In comparison with RTW, these specs require 50 percent more processing power, twice the memory and four times the graphics power.

[DukeofSerbia]

Disk Space: 11GB of uncompressed free hard disk space

WHAT?! I have 120GB in three partion but that's too much.
