yep 780 gtx recommended :D

hehe cod ghosts beats bf4 on specs :p

50gb not many ***** pirates will be grabbing that .
 
50gb?? Maybe I should have bought a bigger SSD. Oh...wait...I have no interest in CoD. Phew.
 
Turning this round a bit, if this was put on one of the new consoles would it have enough memory to cope.

I don't know a lot about the next gen consoles so the above maybe a silly question.

8GB shared memory. Technically yes it would have enough.
 
50Gb... so does that mean they are shipping it on like 4-5 DL DVD's?... It's starting to get like the FDD era where you had 15 disk installs :D

I wonder when they are going to start shipping PC games on BR as well.
 
Basically they're just going to carry on using the same crappy Q3:TA derived game engine - but with amazing textures! You're be able to see all the pores on the blocky characters faces!

if they made cod like 1 , uo or cod 4 with upto date graphics that would be perfection. people can hate cod but nothing does it better.
 
Damn . . . That's some pretty demanding specs . . . I think quite a few people are gonna be suprised by those. The CPU requirement doesn't seem that demanding, but 6gb Ram is a lot :eek:
 
They said a few months back that it's h'actually not a new engine and still built on the previous already heavily modified IW 3.0 engine lol.


IW 6.0
Pixar's SubD (models sub-divide the closer the player gets to them)[7]
