If 2 580's is serious overkill, how well might one 460 run it? I was considering upgrading but if my current card can run it maxed out then there's no point.

I doubt anything he can tell us at this point will matter, since it hasn't been optimized. Though he told someone a 560 TI would be "bitching", and a 460 is only like 10% slower.

For the Fn sake of all thats holy, let us in the damn game... I promise I will not have any fun, I will just test my ass off...

Edit: Nice pic... inspired my whine.

the beauty!

look at the details they pump into something like stairs!
really, noone will ever complain over bases getting boring and looking dull again!

Shout out to @xanderclauss I recognize that outpost. It was built by him.

Shogun · 2012-03-03, 04:01 PM

thanks ;-)

xanderclauss, yor work looks beautiful!
cheers!

a question about those trees:
are they static, or is there any kind of movement in the leaves?
they look awesome!

Is the laser pointing up and to the right compared to where the glowing dot appears on the far building?

Looks like a reflection off of something.

I'm noticing those rectangular bunker like buildings everywhere, especially in bases.

I have some inkling that these are the spawn rooms, and that there can perhaps be multiple ones per base? Am I late to the party? Have they been explained?

Thats very nice. It leaves me to believe theres actual movement of the sun then? As in a flowing shadows affect throughout the game. Dawn has long shadows, noon is highest visibility, dusk, night, ect.. Nice SS.
