Any official announcement yet as to the system requirements?

[Dargarth]

No. Nothing yet.

I'm all about wanting to help , so while I can't post any specs for the game just yet (those will be coming at a later date), I can post the specs for the new computer that I'm going to be getting for my personal use at home.

Again...DISCLAIMER: these are NOT "the" specs for the game. These are merely the specs for MY new personal PC.

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 (3.0ghz)
Asus P5KPL-VM motherboard
4gb RAM
Nvidia GeForce 8800GT (512mb) video card
565w Enermax Power Supply
DVD-R/W
500gb Western Digital Hard Drive
Windows XP 32bit

And yes, I will be able to play the game on it. I hope this helps a little itty bit.

I hope this helps!

You know how much this helps? Nothing. It just means they are well paid.

Well, it doesn't really tell us minimum or suggested requirements. That setup undoubtedly exceeds the former and may exceed the latter. And don't you need to have a 64-bit version of Windows in order to use all of 4GB of RAM?

Yes and no, you need a 32 bit adress to access 4GB of RAM, but video card memory is included in that, so looking at his setup he has 4.5GB of memory to adress, which would if you are as damaged as I am, lead to:
log_2 ((4096+512)*1024^2) =32.17 > 32 which means that 32 bit is not enough.
One might feel that .17 doesn't matter, but
2^32.17/2^32=1.125
So the resulting number 12.5% larger.

lol

Appreciate the "help."

Min requirements.. you need a monitor and the price of the game... the rest is going to take time to figure out

IBM Compatable OS

128mb free sys memory for swap fiels
a Direct X compliant Sound Card is advisable for more game enjoyment

Well paid? Those are pretty basic specs. That's a $800-$1000 desktop...I'm sure the minimum requirements won't be that but come on, let's not get insulting when he's just trying to help since I'm sure he can't say anything at this time about requirements...

m8... these wont be the minimum requirements.. the whole idea is that with that rig you should be able to play the game in max settings

[kurganxy]

I just hope the system requirements arent too outlandish. I know the system i just built will have no problem running it, but I gave my old PC to my boyfriend and its a little older, so hopefully i'll just have to put some more ram in it.

Just for fun here are the specs:
CPU: Intel Core i7 920 (OC to 3.8 Ghz)
Mobo: Asus Rampage II Extreme
Ram: 6GB of OCZ PC3 1600
Video: EVGA Geforce GTX 285
PSU: Corsair 850TX
Case: Antec Twelve Hundred Full Tower
Monitor: BenQ V2400W 24" 1920x1200

and im just running the onboard sound card module that comes with the motherboard on my Logitech Z-2300 2.1 speakers.

Will it be available for MAC?
No. Mac users who want to play (and I am one) will have to play via Bootcamp.
