PSO2 Alpha System Requirements

[Zyrusticae]

Not valid as an example of system requirements being nothing more than a picture of the bare minimum to run the game at the lowest settings?

I wanna have what yer smokin'.

A better example, Battlefield Bad Company 2.

Minimum Requirements:
Core 2 Duo @2.0GHz, 2GB RAM, Geforce 7800GT or Radeon X1900, pretty much similar requirements to PSO2 alpha.

Recommended Requirements:
Core 2 Quad or better, 2GB RAM, Geforce GTX260 or Radeon HD4870, these are considerably higher than the minimum requirements.

Also, for the non-techy types... just a tip.

Find out if your Operating System (i.e. Windows XP/Vista or Mac, etc) is either 32-bit or 64-bit. Max you can upgrade to for RAM on a 32-bit OS is 3GB of ram which rounds out to be 1GB card per slot sometimes. There is no point in buying extra cards and placing them into your MotherBoard. The OS will not read or accept them.

64-Bit OS, i believe, will recognize whatever your MotherBoard can handle. Read the MotherBoards manual for compatible RAM, search online for availability and bargain pricings. Odds are, if your computer is that old, you can get them for dirt cheap.

It's really that easy.

You'll have to go back to 2004 buddy, where high quality is considered a single core processor and 512 MB of DDR1 RAM.

Shit is so aged.

Seriously, Crysis doesn't even sound like a game anymore. It's more of a 60 dollar stress test.

That's pretty much the only reason you'll hear about that game today. Lol.

All I can pick up from your post is nonsense.

Are you incapable of using logic or wording things in a coherent manner? I really shouldn't have to try to decipher your words. And you also should not be posting while under the influence of mind-affecting drugs.

That's pretty much the only reason you'll hear about that game today. Lol.

Wrong, and also irrelevant. Quit missing the point, people!

Hey whoa. I'm not missing any point. The only time I hear about Crysis is when people say "YAH MY CPU IZ SO FST IT CN RUN CRYSYS". I ask them about the aliens and they ask me "what aliens?"

That's my point.

I thought it was a 60 dollar stress test with an average shooter thrown in as a bonus. Also, I think it's cheaper now.

[Zyrusticae]

an average shooter

...Seriously?

I bet half the folks who criticize Crysis either have no imagination (i.e. they always play by only using cloak to head shot everyone) or didn't play the game at all. Most of it's probably the former, actually. A GAME THAT ENCOURAGES YOU TO BE CREATIVE, WHO'DA THUNK IT?!

But seriously, the only reason I brought it up was to illustrate that minimum reqs =/= maximum graphics capabilities. Can we please get back on to that?

Haven't read this thread in a while. Has it become some sort of E-peen competition to see whose computer is 1337 enough to run Crysis or something? Like anyone cares.
