How the fuck would you know?

if you want to give your opinion, then say "I think .. "

maybe because i saw previews and this is my opinion but if you feel like playing a "battlefield-like-game" be my guest, et:qw just has nothing to do with the current et/rtcw, it's a totally different game...

Still the same classes, and objective looks the same either, blow up smth.

gamestyle will be different yes, but wtf? you don't even have played it? how will you know it sucks? you are just afraid every ET-player will leave ET and play QW and don't denie it btw.

pls omg you really are belgium right? i've played several games like battlefield and stuff and every game i did so far which had something to do with vehicles sucked in my opinion. So i won't like this game either, et/rtcw is a game in which AIM is needed, in et:qw it's not since you can fly around in your aircraft and drive around in your tank.

there are allready commands to delete the vehicles, so probably there will be scrim configs with those settings, so aim is most important again. thank you, come again.

If you take it for gaming: AMD Dual Core, if you take it for rendering, photoshopping and so on better Intel. If you want an "allrounder", Intel.
And ye I'd say Kingston is worth the price.

AFAIK the official requirements will be published with demo release.. ;x

Btw, ET:QW will meet a bit higher requirements as Quake IV have
Parent

System requirements close to Quake 4
"In talking to Kevin Cloud and Paul Wedgewood of id Software and Splash Damage, it was expected that the game would have the same requirements as Quake 4

dual core all the way
▼
Puubuu 21 Apr 2007, 19:11
dual: 400€
quad: 1400€
quad gives the double performance :p
Parent

overdrive 21 Apr 2007, 19:15
Well, maybe quad would be a good choice as upgrading your cpu isnt that easy. Might aswell keep using some 'older' pci-E video card and upgrade that later on.

Personally, I never buy the latest stuff as its just overpriced.
Parent

Puubuu 21 Apr 2007, 19:17
yes, overpriced, thats true, but you are able to play the latest games for long time on it :)
Parent

overdrive 21 Apr 2007, 19:18
could aswell buy a new pc every 6 months :P
Parent
▼
Puubuu 21 Apr 2007, 19:19
if you have the money... :D
Parent
▼
overdrive 21 Apr 2007, 21:29
thats the point. you could buy a great mobo cpu for 500€ instead of buying the latest for 1400€. You can buy those parts in six months for 500€ so why pay for the best stuff?
