I wonder what it takes to run this. It looks like it will cause your PC to implode.

It's pretty well optimized. If you have a moderate PC, you should be able to run it with maybe some small dips during heavy fighting.

I haven't played the final version yet, but the beta was kinda CPU intensive. There's an option to put some of the CPU load on the GPU (Or something like that. It's been a while so I can't remember) and it worked really well so if you have some framerate problems then you should look into that...

Sony's first next gen shooter. 2000 players! omg..

Sony only published it....I don't get what the big deal is and it isn't next gen. It's current gen because its PC. PC is always current gen because PC is ever evolving.

SOE (Sony Online Entertainment) are the creators of the game. So no, they didn't only publish it.

Well... going to check the football champions game, then try this game on steam. Looks great.

shackdaddy4167d ago

Dwnlding it now. I hope they worked out some of the kinks that were in the beta. Can't wait!

They sold the entire company. I did like when they ran Everquest as well. But numbers were declining unfortunately

Watch it turn out to be Amazon in disguise

Was such a cool concept back in the day - shame that it never really took off like it probably could have with more support
