i did read somewhere it prefers having 4gb ram though Stevev..

although that was a few weeks back, might have been improved

That was an unfinished version. Warhead is made using the "Crysis PC" in mind as it was demod and presented on that machine for everything.

The demo PC only has 2GB RAM

As long as it runs better then crysis did, I'll be happy.

Still not unlocked on Steam in the US... not looking likely that it'll be unlocked in the UK by morning

As its only 8am over there, they probably wont start till 9.

Wont be able to get it till tomorrow anyway i guess, as its only North America that gets it today on Steam.

It's the multiplayer I'm really looking forward too now. It was a decent idea behind the old one, but lack of a decent sized player base and the feeling of having to start from scratch every time in Power Struggle soon caused me to stop.
I'm sure that will be fixed now however

I think it'll be a bit more interesting with team deathmatch style games, but theres only 1 vehicle map and it doesnt come with Crysis maps as far as I'm aware, no Mesa, Shore etc.

Whatever happens I hope they make a solid multiplayer experience, as they developed the multiplayer separately. I have hopes it'll top Crysis multiplayer which had some strong points and weaker ones.

It's Battlefield on steroids basically. It's going to be pretty awesome, I participated in the Crysis multiplayer beta before the game went retail and I found it immense fun. To see the multiplayer experience concentrated and focused into its own game with its own balances is something we need to see more in games.

Yeah I know, I was just saying that if they don't get it til mid day/afternoon then that will be the same for us, which means I can't set it off downloading in the morning before work
