According to systemrequirementslab.com, the recommended video card is a 8800GTX w/640MiB of memory. Of course they have >= 320-bit memory compared to a 8600's 128-bits, but meh.

If EA DOES release another C&C FPS, it BETTER run on my near-new GeForce 7600GT...

If your computer is any less than that you will likely not be able to play this game unless its at the lowest setting.

Hmhh, after playing it:
Pro's:
-1 of only 2 games I have played (other than ren), which the vechile system is done well and is fun to play. Hit F1, and you go third person, and you can use the turret to shot. (using the boat was fun)
-The way the HUD is setup
-Mouse 3 powerup options are neat
Con's:
-2GB's for half a SP map? You only get to play the first half of the first map, took me about 30min. Whats the other 1.5GB's for?
-Mediocore graphics, reading the system requirements I thought it would be 1 of a kind, tbh, ended up being nothing special in visuals (except the cinematics where very well detailed)
-Not too many weapons
-Bad default controls setup
All in all, i'd give it 7/10. I could see how EA could possible make a C&C FPS out of this (if they are using crytek), but the other options are better.

Don't forget how you can pick up sticks and object dynamically and use them as melee weapons.
So far I love the customization options in the weapons menu and am mostly annoyed by the non-toggle crouch.

Just finished it.
I do have to say that these environments are so real looking that I can almost smell them. I can't even imagine what they look like on ultra high settings.
Toggle SpoilerRobot? AWWW I wanted a dinosaur or something....no one ever makes dinosaurs anymore. I guess I'll have to wait for Turok but still, the creators are mislead in the ways of the fireseed.

Near-new as in outdated junk?
|
Yeah, no doubt there. My 8800GTS 640mb is getting a bit out of date. I need an upgrade.

Well I have a GeForce 8600GTS 256mb and this game killed it. I could even play Bioshock on full everything but this game is insain! I was forced down to medium and no aa at all.
EDIT: @Anyone
Windows XP Professional wSP2 32-bit
GeForce 8600GTS 256mb
Core 2 DUO 2.33Ghz
4gb RAM
If your computer is any less than that you will likely not be able to play this game unless its at the lowest setting.
|
Why would you buy a mid-range card expecting it to run anything above mid-range graphics settings? If you want to play on high buy a high-end card. It doesn't get much more simple than that.

Geforce 9800 series releases in November, get your credit cards ready.
|
No it's not. The 8800GT is being released in November. It performs between the GTS and GTX. Either another GTS that beats the GTX, or another top end card is expected sometime shortly after the 8800GT release but nothing has been confirmed. G92 does not equal GeForce 9800, and thus there is no 9800 series coming out this year.

The 8600GTS is the second highest card Nvidia makes. The 8800 is the next one up, it's hardly midrange.
