Title: FarCry Post by: Daimao on March 27, 2004, 08:27:02 PM bah you
yeah a minimum of 2100mhz is recommended i pity the < 1000mhz pc users :P Title: FarCry Post by: SS on March 27, 2004, 08:35:48 PM I've played it on a D600. Minimum of 2100 is bollocks; it would play fine of a 1200.
Title: FarCry Post by: Daimao on March 27, 2004, 10:28:23 PM on crappy resolution yes
Title: FarCry Post by: SS on March 27, 2004, 11:00:09 PM Eh?
Resolution is a graphics card/monitor issue. The CPU just deals with things that happen - movement, bullets firing, weather effects, etc. Title: FarCry Post by: Daimao on March 27, 2004, 11:36:01 PM I know but i still think it'll be choppy
Title: FarCry Post by: RipperRoo on March 27, 2004, 11:44:41 PM Resolution has a lot to do with CPU.
Things that happen are dealt with by the CPU Smaller Res -> the things happening are smaller Therefore..... because the things are smaller, the CPU doesnt have to work as hard.. :) Title: FarCry Post by: SS on March 27, 2004, 11:57:19 PM The resolution doesn't affect the size of things happening, it just affects the size/amount of things that you see.
Yeah, for lower resoutions, lower quality models can be used which help speed things up, but I don't think that's a big enough factor to make a 1.2Ghz machine have problems with the game. :P Title: FarCry Post by: RipperRoo on March 28, 2004, 12:04:07 AM Does affect the size!
In 800x600 something may be 4 pixels, whereas in 1024x764 it will be something like 5/6.. So :P Title: FarCry Post by: SS on March 28, 2004, 12:05:17 AM That's physical display size. It doesn't affect the size of the virtual object. :P
Title: FarCry Post by: RipperRoo on March 28, 2004, 12:06:21 AM Hold on.... big doo doo...
The smaller the res, the bigger an object, the more squares of the same colour the dot has to do, meaning it changes less, meaning less energy is used, meaning it finishes quicker... Title: FarCry Post by: SS on March 28, 2004, 12:23:12 AM Thats entirely graphics and monitor, you bigger doo doo. :P
Title: FarCry Post by: Drauka on March 28, 2004, 07:31:43 PM It is conversations like these that almost make me wondor why I am a lurker...
Title: FarCry Post by: Perdition on May 04, 2004, 02:19:27 AM revival of an old topic weehheee. *ahem*
its so pretty. the game controls are a bit odd but its really nice looking. havent gotten far enough to say much else Title: FarCry Post by: Drowzycow on May 05, 2004, 12:33:04 AM I haven't got very far either, i might need to clean my mouse though, i think it's slowing me down.
DDM Title: FarCry Post by: Perdition on May 05, 2004, 12:40:23 AM I have a light mouse thingy or whatever and its kinda screwy. i think its just the game weirdness.
Title: FarCry Post by: RipperRoo on May 05, 2004, 04:50:58 PM Quote I have a light mouse thingy or whatever and its kinda screwy. i think its just the game weirdness. A light mouse..... XD Title: FarCry Post by: Perdition on May 05, 2004, 09:06:24 PM hey shut up I dont think well.
Title: FarCry Post by: Everous on May 05, 2004, 09:15:38 PM yeah...well...thats interesting cos when i was six i thought i had a light sword :ph34r:
Title: FarCry Post by: Drowzycow on May 06, 2004, 11:33:15 PM well, probably serves me right, not buying half the games that i play right now. oh well, if the proper game is like the version i'm playing i'm glad i've saved a few bob.
Well i might go out and buy myself Halo, and Painkiller after extensive playing the pirate versions of thm, i want to have a go on the multiplayer on these games, it should be fun LOL I also have an OPTICAL mouse, and the cursor always seems to like to jump to the top left corner every so often while i'm playing. So on my main comp, i'm using a regular ps2 mouse. may the mouse ball never die away. Title: FarCry Post by: Perdition on May 07, 2004, 02:44:07 AM aww cute.
optical thats the word. |
