Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.
Uhhh so scared?
Anyrate, this being slated to release forever in the future hopefully some badass hardware comes out that I can spend too much money on. I supose I should budget $3.5k for the next big computer upgrade I do.

I think sweeny said a while back the engine is designed just to render a shadar effect as fast as possible based on the shadar version of the graphics card or something.
So if you have a ps2.0 card then the effect will still look the same, but it will just take multiple passes to render so it will be slower.

Thanks for the info guys, most of it sounded like technical jargon to me, but thats ok. It just sounds like I won't be getting this one.

Don't worry everyone! NVIDIA and/or ATI will probably make a new graphics card and it will probably run this game nicely.

^Master of the obvious!
R520 will be teh pwange, for those who know what im talking about.
I think with my next card I will return to ATI, NVidia has me slightly dissapointed.

Yeah, it feels weird... I actually stuck with nvidia even though ATI runs uengine better, due to prioritization for api, but I figure, there are so many other games that use gl, that, if I did wanna try Doom3, or the next Quake that comes out
I've bought cards for this franchise before, yet had no hesitation with that decision.

Yeah, you need to wonder how you're going to run a game that's heavily based on DirectX on nVidia cards, as they're better suited for OpenGL last I looked.Tournament0 said:NVIDIA, the way it's meant to be played. :tup:
Do I need to say anything else?
The difference would be a half dozen frames anyway - imho go for the better priced option that's cooler.
The min will be dx9, not sm3. There isn't a card that can't do dx9 and would be able to run it above a slideshow anyway. If someone has a rad9600 or a gf5200 then at least they'll get the game up and running and want to upgrade.
btw:
Unreal Tournament = UT1
Unreal Tournament 2003 = UT2
Unreal Tournament 2004 = UT2 Expansion Pack
Unreal Tournament: Envy = UT3
If you think UT2004 a sequel then you probably think GTA: Vice City is GTA4, Doom3: Resurrection of Evil is Doom4, and Painkiller: Battle out of Hell is Painkiller 2.

You know you miss nVidia, don't you? I have yet to try an ATI card.
