Because I'd like to try this game before I take out my dads good old credit card and pay for it.


Thanks and sorry if this has been asked before!

BTW, this game any good? Can I expect lots of FPS lag?

Trial's been gone for a while, only way to play free is if you've got a buddy who can give you his 7 day buddy-pass. I'm sure there are a few people on the forums that you could pester for one. Lag, unless you've got a computer that can figure Pi, then yes. Otherwise, the game is excellent, hope that helps.

Well, just a few base requirements. You're gonna want at least a gig of RAM. 768 MB's is the bare minimum you should run at. Not a good idea to play via 56k. And a high-end graphics card is a plus.

AMD Athlon 2700XP, 1028 DDR RAM, Geforce FX 5600 128MB, 2.2mbps download connection. :)

Whoops, well, I'm gonna take the fall-back excuse and say that it's 4:43 AM, therefore I'm too tired to be making observations as such.

Well then you have to hop on one foot for 10 minutes before you throw the ball, so nah-nah.

Hmmm, do you happen to know anyone that might be able to fix me up with a buddy key?


Sorry.

Yes thats kinda why I want to try it with the buddy key first before buying it for a month, I dont like games that dont run well.

especially in fights with like 100+ ppl which r common called Zerg forces for obvious reasons if uve played SC

You're UK/European then right? Otherwise I'd use Markov (West Coast) or Emerald (East Coast). Save ya a lot of lag.
