" We haven't announced them yet - we're constantly improving the performance so we'll have a much better idea of the requirements closer to release. We want it to be playable on all modern machines.

hope there will be lots of options to tone down the various graphic elements that really eat resources , always choose performance over looks . blood often interferes with looting , unless loot is visibly distinct then i dont care .
i have actually seen a game whose performance was -improved- with the addition of some shaders , not sure how often that happens though :) . --- .

He said machine, not OS :).

I was part of the LAN test on the weekend. I have a very moderate system (C2D E6300, GeForce 8800 GT 512mb, 6GB DDR2 800) and it ran flawlessly. I didn't tone the graphics down or anything and they looked pretty good, so I'm assuming it was on "full".
Any modern machine should be able to run this quite well, I would say. If your hardware is any older than mine you're probably due for an upgrade anyway :) |

Sounds like there's a good chance for my two years old laptop to run the game reasonably well.

I was impressed, but it's nowhere near complete just yet. I guess that's why it's still in a super closed Alpha :)

" Thanks :) What always surprises me is that despite it being the game being unfinished, several of our internal (unpaid) alpha testers have clocked up over 40 hours in a week playing the game! What you guys played at the LAN was about 60% of Act 1 (which is mostly shown in the announcement trailers). We haven't shown the rest of Act 1 or any of Act 2 publically yet, so it won't be enabled at events like this until it's announced (and a little more polished). Lead Developer.
