hey guys, i thought i would like to address a problem that people are concerned about... having to upgrade their low-end PC. well, never fear, i have done a bit of research on this issue and although some might not be legit, the rest might.
anyway, i was on game-debate.com, and there was an estimate if your PC could run PS2 or not, just based purely off screen shots, videos and such. so, it turns out apparently my shitty ATI randeon 4500 (with 2gb ram) will (estimated) be able to run PS2 on MEDIUM graphics. i hope this is true. i can't run Battlefield 3 even on low settings, i can *just* run Crysis 2 on "lowest" settings (the lowest settings is "high"... :( thanks crytek), and according to systemrequirmentslab.com i cant run Tribes: Ascend... that sucks.
also, on TotalBiscut's "Planetside 2 E3 Stream - Day 2 - (feat. Totalbiscuit and Margaret Krohn)" video, there was talk about the system requirements. (you can see the video below) at 1:16:45 of the video, TB asks one of the devs (forgot the dev's name) about the system requirements. he responds by saying that:
"from what you are seeing now we do have a very high spec system running, but that doesn't mean you will need a high spec system to play this game. we have TONNES and tonnes of graphical options, our programming department are just graphic nuts, they want you to be able to turn on and off tonnes of different things, so if you have a low end machine, you can turn all the settings to low or medium and you still don't loose anything from the gameplay. the gameplay is still there, and you can still feel like you are in a massive world."

that gets my hopes up that i will be able to run this game :D
also, i hope that the optimisation is as outstanding as Max Payne 3's. according to systemrequirmentslab.com i will be able to run max payne 3 COMPLETELY smooth, and from other videos on youtube, it has been praised for its optimisation. that is what i would like planetside 2 to do. look stunning, even on pieces of shit PC's like mine. but even if it doesn't... it is still going to be not only the best F2P SCI-FI MMO FPS, but one of the greatest FPSs ever made :D
what do you guys make of this?
ps: i had posted the same thing before, but i thought i would be a good idea to make a forum of this :D
