There may be several distributors of the BOB SOW. The distributors are going to want to have their say on the system specs. Oleg will make a recommendation to the distributors, and the distributors will agree on the final specification. Oleg will not be ignored, but there will be a meeting of the minds from all parties.
The distributor will want the door to swing as wide as possible to enourage the largest number of purchasers. If you ever get a response on this type of request it will probably be answered with vague and non-committal explanations. Last edited by nearmiss; 06-07-2010 at 10:02 PM. |

the funny thing is... how people say IL2 ran on really slow computers, with super low end specs... well yes, to TODAYS standards they are really low end specs, but in their day, they were standard home computers... this new SOW will have to run on what would be considered TODAYS standard home computer, not 5 years ago, not 9 years ago... (like maybe less than a 1000$ pre-made jobby from walmart type dealy) that being said... if you need to worry about specs, its only because your living in the past.

I suppose one of the problems today is that big monitors that run at high resolutions are now relatively cheap, obviously you need some serious kit to run a game maxed at high res, Im enquiring about the system spec's because I build custom gaming rigs for a living, its my own business and I have had many phone calls enquiring about rigs that will run SOW maxed out. Yes i know that we should all wait and see until after release but some people want to have everything ready on the day of release.

Hmm....if Oleg and team are interested in making lots of money then they should definitely make the game as scalable as possible since -believe it or not- the vaste majority of PC gamers are NOT sitting on high-end rigs. "We", the hardcore simmers are a very small piece of the PC gaming cake. Personally I think that the game will run ok on even modest setups given that there aren't 500 aircraft in the air at the same time and with the graphics maxed out. My 2,5 öre

I know your question was for Tree, but I'll chime in here. You or anyone else looking at a higher end Intel rig might just want to wait for the less expensive versions of the 6 core chips to come out over the next few months, hell you can get a $1000 one now. Even if SOW is "only" optimized for 4 cores, then great you got two left over for the OS and peripherals. The story is even better with AMD for those on a budget their six core chips are in the $200-$300 range and work with most existing boards! (granted their performance is not up to Intel par yet).
For my money, I'm going to hold off as long as possible, not only to wait for specs, but also for prices to come down. I'm not worried about new tech yet as I think SOW will be out before too much happens, but who knows? |
