This stuff is so inaccurate.



And all it really does is compare your system to the Minimum/recommended specs and come up with really bad conclusion based on that.

You can compare your own system with the published requirements and draw your own conclusions, they will probably be more on the spot.
This. I hate to burst thine bubbles guys, but Can U Run It isn't always very accurate. According to that site, my PC should be making Crysis its game-slave and ARMA 2 look like Quake 3 ;)

That "CanYouRunIt" test is kinda old. Yoshiro posted this yesterday:

So it looks like I meet the minimum but could someone give me a guess about where exactly I'll likely be putting my settings. I'm hoping for medium on everything at least.


GPU: ATI Radeon 5670 2GB

CPU: Q8200 Quad Core 2.33ghz

RAM: 8 GB

Be able to handle RO2?

Be able to handle RO2?

Just wondering... my computer's 5 years old but can run Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age: Origins, and some other newer games fine, but it REALLY struggles with something like BFBC2.

Which engine is RO2 more similar to?

BFBC2 is extremely wasteful on your computers recourses so I'm not surprised that it struggles.


I'm quite surprised that RO2 has such little requirements, I'm glad cause I can still use my 4 year old comp to run this game :)

RO2 uses UE3. I would think it is more demanding than ME2 due to ballistic calculations and bigger maps. I can't really think of a similar game to RO2 that uses UE3, but from what I understand it won't be extremely demanding.

UPDATE: That was quick. The specs are now right. Have fun ;)

For everyone, who isn't sure, if he can run "Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad" , can use "Can You Run It?"
It's a free service from System Requirements Lab

The site detects your hardware and tells you automatically, if you can run it or not. It's free, save and you can use it for other games, too.

For other questions, visit the FAQ

MAJOR BUMP!! This site has not failed me yet!! :p

Why are you all asking the same question when you can look at the specs yourself? :rolleyes:
