Hi all, i have a question - when i try to run Mechwarrior Online with my rig

AMD Athlon X2 4200+
2GB RAM
GForce 7900GS 512MB DD3

i get this message that my video card is not supported and i may experience issues. ok now i understand it's not supported, because it says so, but maybe this is only temporary and there will be some kind of patch issued in a future to support older rigs.

The thing is i played plenty Unreal technology based games and it went quite fine, but in MO it acts weird and slow, so i just hope there will be patch and i will be able to play this awesome game

The devs are constantly trying to improve optimization for older rigs, and once dx11 is implemented it should help a lot. And the reason your fine with playing the Unreal engine is because it's pretty old itself, while MWO is using CryEngine3.

Well DX11 isn't going to help this guy, his gpu is several generations old and doesn't support DX11.

As for the warning, I get that on my ATI5830, which is DX11 capable the actual recommended vid card stated in the system specs. XD

It won't run very well with your system. I would think about building a modern pc.

These are pretty much the specs of my PC 5 years ago. It was hardly able to run Guild Wars at decent rates, which is now 7 years old. So I wouldn't expect much from MWO

Yep, i was afraid it was inevitable to invest on upgrade, but it is whatever - the game is totally worth it thx for insight
