System Requirements

[Alexia]

Any ideas on what this will be? Anything similar to kotor 1 or will it need a better computer?

[Darque]

Probably similar.

 

If they do enhance things, I'm hoping they'll have the option to reduce the settings down to at least KotOR's settings so people won't have to buy a new computer just to play this game.

An Xbox?

[Alexia]

Since when do you need requirments for an xbox. I am refering to the pc version :angry:

[Darque]

I think he's refering to the fact it'll be able to play on an Xbox.

 

That being the case, it probably won't be much more than it is now, seeing as it'll have to work on both platforms.

 

Of course this is just guesswork on my part.

[Junn Kast]

It is pretty hard to tell right now because it's not even close to being done, but it will most likley just be a little higher than KOTOR1.

[Volourn]

Junn wins.

/agree i m almost sure that kotor2 will have slight more system requirements not too much but a few more don't forget the engine they are working on

Jesus Christ. KotOR 2 is built with the same engine, and desinged to be able to run on an Xbox. But I suppose these things could mean anything. Better start shopping for hardware now.

Also, remember that this engine is not new to them. A game has been released using it, and there is the possibility of the modification to make it more efficient. It's not unknown for the games on consoles to improve graphically you know, as producers get more and more accustomed to the stuff they have at hand.

And Im not a bimbo

[Nartwak]

I apologize for insulting you, and I will try harder to contain my ire in the future.

[Meshugger]

I think the system specs for KotOR 1 was:

 

- Minimum (Just to get the start-screen rolling): 1gHz processor, 128 mb RAM.

- Recommended: 1.5gHz processor, 512mb RAM, graphic-card that suports vertex and pixel-shading.

 

I except it to be somewhat similar for KotOR II.

[Child of Flame]

Okay, first off, there is NO WAY IN HELL you're going to convince me that KotOR looked the same on an Xbox as it did on an even mediocre (by current standards) PC. Secondly, if you plan on buying any of the GFX intense games that are slated to come out anywhere from 6 months, to 1 or 2 months ahead of KotOR 2 (Half Life 2, Doom III, STALKERS: Shadows of Chernobyl, Halo 2 {I'm assuming this will be released to PC eventually}, etc.), than should you be able to play any of these games at decent resolutions and settings, I think it's pretty safe to say you'll be able to play KotOR 2 at as high settings as they have it for.

 

I'm already saving up for a new MOBO, GFX card, and CPU for playing the above mentioned, which means I should be able to run KotOR 2 juuuuuust fine.

[Meshugger]

I never said that the xbox-version had better gfx than PC. In fact, there were better textures in PC-version of KotOR 1, especially on the NPCs faces.

[Gorth]

Is it possible (for an end-user) to make screenshots from an xbox game ?

 

Could be interesting making a couple actual comparisons of the same spot/situation and see if there were any significant differences between the xbox and (an "average") pc verions.

 

Looked pretty neat on a pc in 1280x1024, all effects on.

 

(I'm still peeved that they were off by default and hidden under advanced settings :angry:)
