Minimal requirements 8GB ram??

[joaocordeiro]

Hey NQ are you sure this is correct?

Pretty sure you cant play much high end stuff these days with less than 8GB RAM

Yes  you cant.

You can play now with 8gb? 

"Get more ram'' isnt a valid answer cause site says ''you can play with 8gb''.

"Minimum Requirements'' = ''if you hit the minimum you can play''. 

If you cant play with 8gb minimum requirements NQ should change to 16gb  minimum (or 12...or..w/e).

I pretty sure its a bad optimization issue and release will be viable with 8gb (basic video options) but ''get more ram'' isnt a valid answer. 

Also "get more ram'' can be something like 1/2-1/3 minimum wage here,  third world. Brazil  you can buy 16 gb ram for 1/2 minimum wage.  And remember: people can play ''for free'' with a beta code, isnt nothing like ''if you cant afford more ram you should not play games''.  Game is international not ''first world only''.

While I'd say 16GB is really not optional in most cases these days, 8GB would be the bare minimum but it will have performance impact in many cases.

The minimum specs need to be upped, would get rid of a lot of complaints. They should have been increased years ago, and lowered when/if the game is optimized well enough to do so.

Minimum requirements are a constant moving target during any test phase.

 

It just went from alpha to beta, so it is still full of debug code.  Lots of debug code.  As features are finalized and bugs cleared, the debug code will be removed, freeing up lots of memory.  Give it time.  Optimizations will get better.
