Guest Tie Guy Posted July 29, 2001 Posted July 29, 2001 Does anyone know what the requierements will be for this game? I'm currently running a Gateway Pentium2 450 with a 8mb TNT video card. Also, does anyone know if this game will be 3d accelerated?
Compa_Mighty Posted July 30, 2001 Posted July 30, 2001 That will be just enough. It will probably need the same as AoK, and you exceed that.
Guest ZeroXcape Posted July 30, 2001 Posted July 30, 2001 Check out our estimates at http://www.galacticbattles.com/requirements.shtml You should be fine...
Clefo Posted July 30, 2001 Posted July 30, 2001 Well I pass all of those requirements except the processor. Which isn't too bad, but I'd hate it running slow. So I'll piss of my mom and take up more space on her compurer
FlyBOy Posted July 30, 2001 Posted July 30, 2001 i don't think the game will need a 3D accelerator. isn't the game **what do you call it** a 2D based game **a, i think thats right**
Darth_Rommel Posted July 30, 2001 Posted July 30, 2001 The requirments look just right to me. Flyboys got a very valid point though!
Paragon_Leon Posted July 31, 2001 Posted July 31, 2001 the only real tech trouble AOK ever had was crashing without any apparent reason. o wait, that's actually a serious problem... would Lucasarts sort of debug the AOK-engine as well ??
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 1, 2001 Posted August 1, 2001 the comp is screwed... i would imagine the game does not need a 3D card too, but it's like half-life, it looks better..... starcraft and AoE didn't need cards, but they both looked okay to me, although some peeps think cartoony....
Darth_Rommel Posted August 1, 2001 Posted August 1, 2001 Yeah, I liked AoK's graphics. I thought they looked good
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 2, 2001 Posted August 2, 2001 the poor man's version of AoK is lords of the realm. although the game was pretty fun b/c you can build castles with certain defenses, like oh pouring hot stuff on troops........
Paragon_Leon Posted August 2, 2001 Posted August 2, 2001 i don't know that game ! when did it come out ?
Young David Posted August 4, 2001 Posted August 4, 2001 Originally posted by ZeroXcape Check out our estimates at http://www.galacticbattles.com/requirements.shtml That proccesor requirement isa bit high I think. The Conquerors required only 166 Mhz (instead of your 266 Mhz). I have a Cyrix 200 and it plays well enough. (I'll have a far beter one once the game is out)
Darth_Rommel Posted August 4, 2001 Posted August 4, 2001 AoK has more art + units + terrain (if that make any difference)
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 and GB has alot more art+units+terrain than AOK, so it would naturally need a bigger requirement. Still, i think that will be fine for a good majority of people. Plus, you wouldn't wan to play it if it lagged alot coz they lowered the req.
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 That proccesor requirement isa bit high I think. The Conquerors required only 166 Mhz (instead of your 266 Mhz). I have a Cyrix 200 and it plays well enough. (I'll have a far beter one once the game is out) the conquerors ran on 166, but i read a post from mr. fixit and he believes that the minimum processor will be 266, which makes sense according to tie's statement.
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 leon, i don't know when lords of the realm came out. all i know was that one day i saw it being sold with the expansion and the first one, and it looked cool. a lot of the game is based around trade as well as building a good defensive castle. pretty diff. type of rts game, but good nonetheless......
Paragon_Leon Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 Thanks for the info, i'll give it a try sometime when i'm not busy overpowering people in AOK.. :D All i'm looking for in a good RTS is multiplayer value and a gripping enough single-player scenario that actually offers some unique graphics outside of multiplayer. O wait, that's actually asking a lot..
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 6, 2001 Posted August 6, 2001 hey leon, yeah, give it a try sometime, i think you could get the I, II and the expansion for II for under 20 dollars now (i got for 20 three years ago). it's pretty difficult b/c sometimes your castle may not be sufficient to defend armies, so it could be game over.....
Darth_Rommel Posted August 6, 2001 Posted August 6, 2001 Yeah, in that first scenario I always die 'cos my cows all get 'mad cow disease' (I've never beaten it! )
