Assassin's Creed - Rumoured System Specs

These are not the requirements; they are just someone’s guess and should be taken as such. Until Ubi releases the “actual” requirements it’s all just speculation :rolleyes:

No need to get irate just yet ;)



.

If we didn't all get irrate about rumours and speculation the amount of traffic on these forums would halve :)
 
Recommended System Requirements:
* Intel Pentium Core 2 Duo, or better processor
* 3 GB System RAM
* ATI HD2900 series, Nvidia GeForce 8800 series, or better video card
* 5.1 sound card
* Microsoft Xbox 360 controller

What percentage of the market have that spec? Thay'd be shooting their sales in the head.
 
crysis didn't shoot their sales in the head to badly and id bet this will run a hell lot better then crysis. But it doesn't have the publicity of crysis. I mean, every gamer knows about it! then again a lot of people do know about assasins creed. But its not new andn we all know its a flop now.
 
didn't know that. I heard the campagne was boring so i never played it.

Now that I think about it, cpu lag does cause stutter, but in my case it's not cpu lag as I see the hdd light comes on and it's loading it....
It all depends if you can see your hdd light on or not. Besides, my cpu is sometimes with just 70 % on both cores when it locks up to load something from hdd ( got the core maximizer, wich spreads the processing between 2 cores better).

There's another diff between cpu and hdd lag too though, hdd lag only locks up once for about 3 seconds on so and is fine for perhaps 1 hr after ( as it pushes away some windows stuff from ram again and put game data from hdd into ram). Cpu lag causes firstly a massive drop of fps in supcom, and if it's really bad ( you'll probs get bored of low fps b4 this happens) it starts stuttering for a sec every 5-10 seconds... And the hdd light stays off offcourse. :)

The campaign of SC vanilla is idd a bit boring, the FA campaign is cool though.
I don't know if you have FA but if you do, I can recommend the campaign. Add's a bit more depth than just a skirmish.

People on this forum fail to realise that most of us are pc enthusiasts and have the hardware necessary to run these games well yet the vast majority of gamers and jo public do not.
 
bull, must have an 8800? yea...okay what fraction of the people that play pc games have an 8800? a very small fraction so how they plan on making any money from it...

sounds intresting./ yeah i have FA but everytime i click restart in games it crashs the game which seems really random. I can quit a skirmisha nd then load a new one but if i click restart it dies :s

I may have to try the campagne then.

But the thing is, only the enthusiast gamers new they needed high end pcs. All the people i know at collage into gaming know about crysis they all want to play it and a lot of them have bought it regardless. The amount of hype around it ment it sold anyawy.

Lookig at that review crysis sold over 3 times as much as UT even though UT has a huge following.

How many people buy games looking at the back cover thinking mmm can my pc run it? And how many of them know the difference between a 8600 and 8800 anyway?

Thats what it recommends, it doesnt say you must have one. Still looks dodgy though.
 
The STEAM user survey is proof enough at how lazy people are at upgrading their computers.

Lazy?

Next time give me the money then for a new gfx card :D.
People dont upgrade because they don't want to spend €€€ on nothing but more eye candy, casual gamers have no need for an 8800sli quadcore 8 gb 1 TB pc. A p4+ 6600GT+ 1 gb ram will do them fine for cod4, cod2, bf2 as they care for the gameplay and don't want to waste their money on something so pointless as a new gfx card. They might have a life outside pc gaming and want to spend money on that instead. :p.

Forget the fact it sold 3 times as much as UT it still sold very poorly only 86000 units in one month...
 
how can you judge how well a game sells without comparing it to how well everything else sells? If other games all sold badly then why should the best selling game iout of them be seen as the bad seller?
 
dont know. never played it without 4gb lol. I used to play games with 1gb on my old pc and everything was all dandy. Ivew played rb6 fine with very low settings and when i go to crank it all up on my new pc i dont notice any difference!
 
Because the Xbox360 is unalterable, dedicated hardware. It's much easier to make a game for that. Console specs are completely different to PC ones, a console will punch well above the equivalent on a PC.

Even allowing for that though, it's hard to see how you can go from 0.5gig to 3gig. It's not like the additional overhead of running Windows is gonna soak up 2.5gig, so I can only assume that the PC version must use higher res textures or some other RAM-whoring function.
