Running Game with Minimum Specs


Here is the deal:
My computer exceeds minimum specs on everything except Graphics Card and RAM.
I have
Windows ME
1.37 Ghz AMD ATHLON
40 Gig HD
64 MB Geforce 2 MX 400
<*EDIT*> Tottally forgot to put RAM in, but its 256, also minimum spec

So, my main question is wether or not the game is worth having at my current specs. I definetly plan to upgrade in the near future and i wonder if i should buy PS now or wait till my Ram and Graphics are boosted

1. what is your ram
2. The 32 meg card may give you problems, you may need to look into that

3. Game runs great on a P3 866 mhz, 3/4ths ghz ram, 64 meg card

Would i be better off upgrading Ram to 512 and Video to 64, or just upgrading my video to 128 and leaving memory

I also don't have the game yet, but I was in beta. I have 256mb RAM and a 32mb video card. It ran perfectly, so my suggestion is to save your money for now. In the beginning of beta I was stressed out about how I was gonna get the money for a new video card and more RAM and everything. Buut, towards the end of beta everything was smooth and quick and ended up saving about $200 which is alot for me since I'm 15. Hope this helps.

(Another open beta tester who is too cheap to get the game)

I have 512MB of ram but have a GF2 32MB.

If you set all your stuff to minimum you should be fine. I lowered all my resolution, used triple buffer and turned off graphic pre-fetch...used maximum "render distance", it functioned alright in the medium scale battles. The devs were getting their code right near the end of beta...
