Cant wait

[(TLL)Frosted]

I really cant wait for this mod I have been looking at this site for 1 year at least, I just checked back today afther a few month and I am really impressed. I just have few questions and no its not about the release date I know it will be ready when it's ready .


I notice there's day/night cycle will this be only dx10 and how long is the cycle?

Infantry have jet packs? Will I be able to skii like in Tribes?

Will this game be more demanding than crysis ?

Will it run fine on my hardware?

I'm just going to comment on the hardware.

I am using a AMD x2 3000 (2.2ghz) with 2gb ddr2 ram with a gtx260. I average 20fps on med spec, which actually seems to be ok. I used to have a 7800gt and I averaged 10-15fps. Being that your main processor is much faster than mine, you should be allright. We are also optimizing our models and shaders now so we will be seeing an increase in fps.

1.  Day night cycle is not DX10 only and will be avalable on all maps that are designed to have it.

2.  There are no infintry.  However there are battle-armor, which do have "jump jets".  You can't ski with them though.  Well... maybe.  I think it depends on the air resistance set.

3. It will require more memory seeing as the maps are larger, but other than that it HOPEFULLY shouldn't be any more demanding than Crysis was.  Some of Crysis's maps for instance would give me EASILY 15-20 FPS on high settings all the time, while with MWLL it's a bit better in that regard.

Thanks for the info Korjax, I had wondered if the levels would be bigger to accomodate for for larger Mechs, etc.


Also, you do have the coolest avatar on the forums.

Darn, a cheap CPU and Ram upgrade would help you.

I reinstalled Crysis warhead for fun today I get about 15 fps on enthusiasm(Very High) @ 1920x1080 but when I will play for real I will set it so I get a constant 30+fps

[~SJ~ Karuik]

agreed there, every little bit keeps me going

i have this funny feeling that october will be the month of the mech... *kneels and prays, hard* of course i say that about every month, it keeps the anticipation up

so is there a target release date for this mod? or does it take the blizzard model?

There is, but not a public one, so one could say

or does it take the blizzard model?

that, respectively the id Software approach - "It's done when it's done!" - is true.

Worked great for 3D Realms, right?

I am glad to hear that Strykker, I have a dual core AMD OCed to 2.6ghz and an 8800gts with 2gig of DDR2. That lets me see that I can upgrade my Vid card and memory and be sitting ok for release and then do a full upgrade of Processor and MB in April/May.

No no, you're confusing it with another model.
3D Realms' model is  It's done when it's dead, not It's done when it's done.

so when can I expect to start blowing up giant robots?
