hears my question , want to know if my pc will run it fine and if not what do i need so it will run SMOOOTHLY!
my pc can run rome fine, ecapt when i have units set too huge scalei think its my procesor cus all looks good to me.

i got the info from system properties, and the tab labled general.

t6520
adm athalon 64 procesor
3400+
2.39 ghz, 1.00 gb of ram

i think my procesor is 2393 mhz

so i think i got all the requerments, so ys rome lag when i play on huge scale

 

[Hitti-Litti]

Well, I think it will work fine for me too, like Rome, except on huge unit scale.

 

[Tank_Guy#3]

Yea, when I started running RTR, I had to drop a lot of the graphics to lower levels to help speed up the game. 80-120 men per unit is quite a few, I hear some have even more.

 

[Truronian]

I take solace in the fact that the cities are not gonna be designed to be navigated by huge units.

 

[steviejay]

hmm, interesting, might be a push but I'm sure my baby could handle it

 

[Dell19]

Mine meets the requirements but doesn't run the demo.

Personally, I think if your computer can run games that came out for the past year or so(such as Oblivion), it should be able to run M2TW fine.

You would think so, but this is alas not true. I myself can't play because I have an Athlon XP processor which can't support SSE2. I was looking forward to this game. I liked Medieval and I bought Rome as soon as I could, but apparently CA thinks that cutting their sales in half is a good move.

 

[Gr3yL3gion]

I don't think CA is that stupid though, maybe there's time to rectified that SSE2 issues before they publish this game.

What is your graphic card? You never said so. Also, I had a 3400+ Athlon 64 and a 7600GT a while back, like a week ago, before I got my spankin' new rig, and I played on Huge Scale with Rome Total Realism (RTR) and the frames were in the high teens to the high 20s but it was alright.

hello hope im not being rude butting in!
but my specs are:
pentium 3.2 800fsb
asus p4p800fsb motherboard
2gig 3200 pc400
bfg 7600 gs 512mb

and i thought this would run it fine! well it does aslong as i set everything to low end which im not happy doing this game was meant to be played with huge units this is why the landscapes are so lush and city and castles just breath taking, i never go along with manufacturers minimum specs cos they are complete liers just try running battlefield 2 on min specs basically it wont!!

so apart from winning the lottery im not sure if theres anything i can do to get the most out of this bfg card any thoughts

 

[Truronian]

Recommended settings = normal units I believe.
