I think its made by different devs, I agree it doesn't look special, these types of games feel lifeless IMO

Robert1986 · 13 Mar 2010 at 15:33

lol... 8gb. Most hardcore gamers don't even have 6gb.

different deves, different game completely, but using their derivative of the xray engine.

the stalker devs took it and made CoP

these devs took it and made this.

Looks like they improved the texture area.

The devs actually said that they haven't used the x-ray engine at all, and that it was being spread as misinformation.

Swi1ch · 13 Mar 2010 at 16:07

Probably "Optimum" if you plan on using DX11.

Well it was made by the same programmers, they say they made it completely independently.

The GSC guys they left say it's a customised early build of the xray engine.

I think the key word here is "Optimum".

I would say the suggested rig would run the game "Optimally" I would assume.

i hope it is right, a fair bit of us are using some pretty decent hardware and hardly anything is taking advantage of it.
