I have one question and one question only. I have a laptop. It runs excelently with many other online games even lag crazy World of Warcraft and the ever getting popular Leauge of Legends. Now these games are quite different but i play LoL probably more than anything and with this laptop it's the funnest and cleanest game i ever played.(About 90% Lag Free). My question is simple i paid for my founders package like most others and i would want to know when will my Laptop be accomidated for the Graphics engine you guys are throwing into it. I'm lagging down to a frame rate of about 6-10 FPS. I love this game i've played it since it's origins on Gamestorm.com But even my mothers windows 95 graphics wasn't lagging one bit at all. And not many can afford such over the top graphics for there computers.

When Will this game be better for the lower end players who worship you guys jsut like there worshiping LoL right now? If Needed look at my system settings i posted to be in this beta. That would be a great start. Please I want to keep playing more of this game like i do play LoL.

[Jack Gallows]

Damn. Can I get bonus MC if I can pronounce his last name right?

[Geneslicer]

just like punishi i just wanna know release date

[punishigames]

I'm waiting for half decade for this game and it will take linger to launch

[punishigames]

I'm waiting this game is half decade and it will take a long time

[Anelor Galor]

Waiting for it doesnt matter, what matters it, that they finish their work on it.
A half made game is like no game as you will just loose the players really fast.

So take your time! Work it out. Who rushes gets usually killed in an ambush.
GL and sucess guys.

[UOMO]

Hello!
Will it works on mac?

[Lampshade 1]

No. And you don't need legendary to get early access anyway, all founder's packages come with it.

[Geneslicer]

you mean the nda that says your not allowed to mention that you in the beta

[BigBadTimberwolf]

To MadCat prime:
Ok, first and foremost neither WoW or LoL require much hardware to run. Have you compared your specs to the minimum specs of MWO? MWO utilizes a very modern graphics/physics engine to enable a lot of mechanics that wernt available in previous MW games and of coarse the pretty graphics. Its because of these modern advances that MWO has a chance to appeal to broader masses. Ok next you talk about your frame rates and lag like they have anything to do with one another. Lag is totaly a latency issue. And though your frame rate can be affected by bad latency, its probably not your problem. Your laptop is probably too old and is running WoW and LoL off of an onboard graphics card on your motherboard. This graphics card is powering everything visual related on your computer (including windows). You absolutely, definetly, with out a doubt need to have a dedicated graphics card. This is true for pretty much any game with decent graphics made in the last 5-10 years. You dont need a high end pc to play this game. You just need something somewhat modern with a dedicated graphics card. Go into bestbuy, pick out the cheapest pc they have (hint: if you want to play serious games NEVER BUY A LAPTOP FOR MANY REASONS), And pick out the cheapest vid card still on there shelves and bam you can play. Games like LoL and WoW can run on just about any computer.. games like MWO, Battlefield3, and CoD:MW3 need modern hardware, sorry. And for the record nothing designed to run on Win'95 can be compared with the cryengine3. period. The best hardware made in 95 couldnt even handle windows7 man.

PS: Had you purchased a desktop rather then a laptop you could simply just upgrade. Enjoy your mobility.. your pretty much stuck with what ya got
