Optimization

I was wondering if the game is already optimized for low end pc's and if not, are there any plans for optimizing it?

You likely won't see anything on this until open beta comes when SOE should have a better understanding of where all the hardware performs.

A forum member was nice enough to put a lot of that info in a thread. http://www.planetside-universe.com/s...ad.php?t=46781

Thank you, Goku, i had a look at that thread and now im am 100% sure my pc wont be running planetside 2 ever ;(

I am running AMD Athlon x2 7850, 2 gb ddr2 ram and a ATI HD 5750, i doubt they will bother to optimize it to run on a rock like this

they said they are working towards optimizing it for lower end pc's, not sure if it will get to what you posted, but you nver know.

That, and the over-abundance of console ports and fewer PC exclusives making upgrading rather pointless these days.
