Sooo is it worth trying to run this on my pretty old PC? GTX670 2gb, 8gb RAM, i5.
Runs alright for me with the same specs. I'm on a SSD though.
Just be easy on the settings

You got pissy about someone "ignoring" part of your post when he did no such thing. You mention it again in a pissy tone.The ๖ۜBronx;246383720 said:

Thanks, I appreciate it!
I can free up some SSD space. Guess it's probably time to jump onto this because the concept definitely appeals.
Nah just delete it unless you want to test out patches a few days early.
Infact I could get away with upping some settings. I have vsync off and get a lot of screen tearing. It's plenty fluid for me, hardly any hiccups. Very enjoyable.

This is my game of the year. Hopefully, D2 challenges it.

First impressions:
First thing I noticed was that the movement felt a little floaty. I guess they wanted to have your character accelerate and decelerate rather than starting and stopping on a dime like most shooters? I'm not a fan of that, but I can live with it.
Tons of pop-in. Like.... every second you're running across the map, something is popping in.
I'm not going to be hyper competitive so I started out on full ultra settings. At 3440x1440 with a 1080TI, I get anywhere from 50-80 FPS. If I look at a restricted zone as it's getting blasted, it drops to 35ish. So.... there's room for improvement there.
I don't know what happens when you don't reach the play area circles in time. I always make sure I'm inside. It's gotten me killed a few times... including my last game where I made the last 10 remaining players. Damn sniper....
I killed a dude and the game wouldn't let me loot him. Then someone shot me while I tried. Shit happens I guess.
I punched 2 people to death in my first game

It starts draining your health until you get into the play area.
Yup, pretty slowly for the first two circles. If you are alone looting a large area with good loot, it is actually a viable strategy to stay completely outside the zone for the first two circles until the third one is revealed. You basically need to stay full boost or burn a few healing items and have a fast vehicle though.
The third circle zone hurts significantly, and then the fourth and so on start chunking you HARD. It's not instant kill, but you'll die after more than a few seconds outside of the safe zone.

Sorry for another n00b question, but what is boost?
I think he is talking about pain killers and energy drinks, both have a slow and cumulative healing effect, so taking more will increase those, and you can live in the blue shit for longer.
You can also 'boost' a vehicle by holding shift, its like "running' but for your vehicle.
When you take an energy drink or painkillers it fills your boost bar. Each level of the boost bar will give you a benefit, regenning health or increasing run speed, etc.
If you have more questions I'd recommend hopping over to the more active Official Thread for the game

I never said that, I said that I was massively looking forward to the game but not the community in the same way as a result.
Either way can we let this go and stop the dogged replies. I really care to get into some worthless pissing contest over how a post was interpreted. You seem incapable of understanding what I mean and I seem incapable of presenting in a way that allows you to.
Just move on and try to keep it positive. What's your favourite aspect of the game, and one thing you would like to see improved?

My favorite aspect of the game is the firefights. Just a few days ago in a match I was trapped in a building with an enemy squad shooting from the nearby hills. I laid prone by the windows and was able to knock out 3 of them with my sniper before the 4th one got me. It was intense and satisfying.The ๖ۜBronx;246530434 said:
What I would like to see improved is the optimization. That's all really. Asked me a month ago I would have said the movement system and more maps but the devs are already addressing these with vaulting and working on two more maps.
Are you implying that 7 million people tried to refund the game and were unsuccessful?

That situation sounds awesome, and is the exact type of reason I'm excited to play. It seems the organic gameplay gives rise to a lot of these moments and I can't wait to be deciding for myself whether to engage, run or stay silent.
That's good to hear, have the developers got any plans for additions (they they've specified) or are they also pretty happy with where it's at now? Not to suggest that there should be more, I think what's there looks great as-is, but just wondering what their plans might be if any.

Could you be more specific about additions? If you mean optimizations, the devs have said that optimization and patching bugs is their top priority, and most of the patches thus far have helped both with more on the way.The ๖ۜBronx;246543230 said:
If you mean maps, like I said two more are coming. One of them is a desert map and the other a mediterranean map.
It has been one of prototype animations they have shown.
