Computer specs
Sky:
The first weekend I played on my old machine C2D 2.4GHz/4GB DDR2 800/GTX 460 1GB. Ran great, except for the last few minutes when everyone went nuts in front of the senate, shooting off aoes and dozens of pcs emoting.
Last weekend I ran my new pc i5 2500K/8GB DDR2 1600/GTX 460 1GB SLI and it was bananas.
Even though I adjust my resolution for overscan on the tv, there is a sliver...and the fps meter was buried enough I couldn't see it. It was red the first weekend and green the second.
Numtini:
Higher end shadows seem to really put a strain on things. I have a E8600 3.33 core2duo and HD4870 and I was in single digits at times--which for these graphics is absolutely absurd. 80+ consistently with the shadows reduced to lowest.
There also seemed to me to be a good number of "it's a beta" issues. Particularly, their instance server was overwhelmed with frequent lag spikes, but also weird framerate drops.
Ingmar:
Yeah the game is not exactly a performance hog. I think it did melt Proudft's laptop though.
Nevermore:
Yeah, but I think Minesweeper could melt his laptop.
proudft:
It certainly did overheat it (90C) and force a reboot, putting it in the elite company of Borderlands and the intro screen to Minecraft.
But it ran fine before that. I didn't get around to putting it on screen, but I'd estimate 60 fps easy inside, dropping to maybe 20-30 in the complicated swamps or canyons with a bunch of dudes running around, and this is a 18-month old laptop (with a real video card). It was running just a smidge under WoW speed basically once I turned shadows down to little blobs, I was pleasantly surprised.
