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.

ya, anyways I think I figured out why im getting a lowish score on the benchmark. Its because I only have 4GBs of ram running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I should be getting another 2GBs soon so then I'll retest with 6GBs of ram!

Your fine, the benchmark is just a little stupid. Lol.

I know, especially since I'll have a GTX480 soon. Still the CPU score bugs me and I do know its a ram issue. I expect a pretty decent increase with 6GBs of ram under the hood.

Apparently the Depth of Field is going to be the big stressor on the CPU. But we will be able to turn it off if we choose.

The release date so close, and the information is so scarce. Huge red flag for a MMO. I am going to bet the game suck hard when released. Sad to see people still haven't learned from the success of WoW.

So a game sucks because they aren't spilling the entire game before it is released. What's even the point of playing then if everything is spolied?

The lack of information is a sign of things to come. Unspoilled content doesn't work with MMOs. It has been proven a billion times by now. The tighter the lid, and more restrictive the testing then the worse the bugs. FFXIV is going to be a buggy, and probably lag filled mess based on the specs. The lag filled part is still uncertain, but its got a solid history of coming true. MMOs require an extreme amount of testing to work. Sooner companies realize this the sooner we can actually get more good ones on the market.

It has been in testing for awhile now.
