IMO much more earlier, than I expected. But game game requirements are pretty crazy, hmm.


A system like that is like 5 years old or more at this point btw. =P

The specs aren't too bad. They are high for a MMO. But this MMO is future-proof IMO graphics wise. Hell even FF XI still looks damn good, and it came out 8 years ago.

ha at someone saying half a gig memory

if you don't even have a gig of memory these days your computer is like stone age.  most have like at least 4 these days and that is counting like $300 laptops.

ah, that isn't insane in any respects but i can see a lot of people needing to upgrade, though shouldnt' take more than a $30 upgrade of an older card.

hell even an amazing card if you just wait one year they are at $100 at most.  So just buy last years top dog card then and your set for a LONG time.

I got a HD Radeon 5850 with 1GB VRAM. More than enough for the game.

I hope those aren't the minimum requirements, otherwise it does make sense given the fact that PC gamers are playing at a higher resolution and they probably haven't optimised nearly as well as they should have.


or its just the benchmark isnt optimised.

It isn't. The benchmark is basically just a CPU stressor. It's not that accurate.
