WutsInAName Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 They are. I have an AMD tripple core Phenom 4GB ram and Radeon HD4550(?) laptop. Played Rift fine played SWTOR beta fine. CANNOT get more then like 8FPS on SWTOR launch client. It's too bad they cannot be held legally accountable for such an obvious oversight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daeseer Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 1. I disagree that SWTOR has "crappy" graphics. I think they look very nice, although they're a bit stylized. The matte paintings for the backgrounds could be a bit more high res, but overall some of the areas are quite impressive, e.g. Corellia. 2. The Hero engine isn't free. People keep saying this, and it's not true. There's a version that's free, but Bioware has licensed the engine for a fee, which was most likely substantial. 3. The minimum requirements are, I'm sure, not going to run the game well. Name me one game where they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CzaplaM Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I play with those specs pretty much. It sucks, but what do you expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goretzu Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 SWTOR: TERA: So...can anyone explain me why a crappy graphics and free game engine like SWTOR require higher minimum system requirements while a 3x heavier performance game like TERA has lower minimum system requirements? Because I don't even..................... You can run SWTOR on a machine below minimum specs, with ok results. The only big issue is your GPU shader version and drivers.

WizardsDestiny Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Minecraft. I really don't think the graphics of Minecraft are remotely valid when discussing SWTOR, as much as I love them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
