Firmly believe my [email protected], 8GB Ram and a GTX 780 will run it without any issues with everything (ok, maybe not EVERYTHING but what matters) on full/maximum.
Also if the requirements suddenly take a jump on a game that's been in development for three years it smells like poor optimisation to me rather than any great leap in quality.
still running on the unreal 3 engine, i imagine the map being 5x larger wont help the cause regarding requirements.
