Guest DarthMaulUK Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Having read that you can get unlimited fighters (with cool down timer) I found this piece from the gamespot forum where someone played at the game at the recent 'on the spot' event He said Oh ya, Imperial Star Destroyers launch Tie Fighters limitlessly... at least that's what the Lucasarts Rep told me... but you can target their hangar bay and put it out of commission Great idea to have that in the game and a real pain, if your hangar bay gets disabled. He went onto say about the PC Spec I was checking the settings, the PC had it running on 1024 x 768... 4x anti-aliasing all graphic options turned on high. but you have to remember, these are NOT final spec settings for the game and probably will be able to run on lesser PCs.

Athanasios Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Well, 4x antialising (and also anisotropic most possible to have been turned on) means pretty much heavy work from the graphic card's side... If the game played smoothly in such resolution and with these options, then the game might run smoothly on most systems. Also, there are other games with more fierce graphics (ie. Trackmania Sunrise eXtreme) where the devs managed to pull down -someway- the system specs very low, so that most users can play the game with nice graphics. Finally, you mention that these are not the final specs; yet, one-two months away cannot change the whole graphic engine, at least not dramatically. What can be done is the resize of the scale among units, some texture details etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Sith Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 It cannot make an unlimited amount of TIE Fighters, it just has the timed special ability to launch a squad of low powered TIEs every once in a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Alec Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I hope that's not the min specs. Because I can only run it half the time. Divorced parents sucks. But still, unlimited fighters will halp the war effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athanasios Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 On the average, many demanding games suggest the following system specs: Minimun requirements Windows 98/2000/ME/XP Pentium III 500MHz 512MB DDR-Ram 64MB 3d accelerator card compatible with DX 9.0c 16-bit sound card 4x CD/DVD-ROM driver 1GB available on hard disk Actually, on such a system, the game (generally speaking, including EaW ofcourse) never plays normally .It will look like an old PacMan game with blurred graphics. I suppose EaW will play normally on a system mentioned below: Recommended requirements Windows 98/2000/ME/XP Pentium IV 2.06GHz (or AMD AthlonXP 2000+) 512MB DDR-Ram (or 768MB DDR-Ram) 128MB 3d accelerator card compatible with DX 9.0c 16-bit sound card 4x CD/DVD-ROM driver 1GB available on hard disk And for the best experience... High-detailed smooth graphics Windows 98/2000/ME/XP Pentium IV 3GHz (or AMD Athlon 3200+ or Dual Core AMD processors) 1GB DDR2-Ram Dual Channel (DC supportd by the motherboard ofcourse) 256MB 3d accelerator card compatible with DX 9.0c 16-bit sound card 4x CD/DVD-ROM driver 1GB available on hard disk Well, compare and make your outcomes. Personally im in the last category Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithxace Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 i dont like the limitless, or even timer. Just have them have a abilkity to hold certain amount (alot) and then come with a few squads when its built, add motre if u want more squads then send them all out at once for battle when you want them too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logain Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Athanasios, i'd just like to point out that theres no way in hell this game will run on a 500 mhz CPU, also, a 2.0 P4 is the equiv of a 2000+, not a 3200+, my 3200+ beats P4 3.4's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athanasios Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 As i said, actually none game can play as "game" in the minimum requirements that the companies state. PS: Processors are not the only factors where a computer "beats" another; compare a P4 2.06 with an ATI X800XL on it VS a P4 3.8GHz with a 32MB graphic card, and you'll see what i mean. Dual Channel Rams, AI boost technologies etc etc.....also add up. PS2: Equivalent processors editted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logain Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 better, still, where did you pull these figures from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
