I'm sure part of the beta is to determine what the minimum specs will be, but does anyone know a good starting point for folks getting ready to build.

Maybe the minimum specs for crysis 3?

Have they even posted theirs?

If you have to ask, you need an upgrade

Yeah I know that broseph lol.
I'd just hate to build what I think is a moderately priced and powered system only to find out one component is just below the threshold.

They will be doing testing in closed beta with different stats I am guessing to determine the min system req.

If you own a desktop computer within the last 6 years and can do DX9... I don't see why you could play. But yes, close beta will likely be used to determine hardware requirements.

I don't know about MWO yet...



But the minimum requirements for Crysis 2 are:


Minimum system requirements
In order to play this game (Crysis 2), your PC must meet or exceed the following requirements:

• Windows XP/Vista/7 (with the latest SP)
  
• Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 2GHz
  
• 2 GiB of RAM (3 GiB on Vista/7)

• NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT or ATI Radeon 3850 HD with 512 MiB of VRAM
  
• For multiplayer: broadband Internet connection
  
• For activation: a one-time authorization is performed at the first run, which requires an Internet connection

I hope we can remove a lot of options just to play even in laptops (as I do).

So should I bother upgraded my beta profile once my EVGA 680 GTX arrives?

Yeah, the more accurate our specs are the better they can make the game!

Beta starts tomorrow, so wait a day and see what people are saying works with what equipment.

Do you think the NDA they might have to sign would have a stipulation about not posting their opinions of system requirements before the devs have made an official announcement?

i can run skyrim on medium at 35 fps, is that good?

[Samson]

Well they have stated they are using the Crytek 3 engine, so aim for at least Crysis 2 specs. Personally I don't think I've looked at a games min requirements for at least a year and a half.

well i might have to build a new gaming rig need to anyway

My laptop can run crysis 2 at max anyway. I wouldn't be too concerned about options such as that though. Most games which have come out in the last I-dont-know-how-many years have all had options to remove shadows, shaders, dull down textures and the like. I would honestly be shocked if they remove this, as it was built into Crysis 2 anyways, and their both built on the same core engine.
