The Commissar Posted April 16, 2001 Share Posted April 16, 2001 Not likely. The engine will be the same as CM1 with a few new textures and slightly better graphics (I hope!). Nothing requiring a real upgrade unless youre barely running CM1 to begin with. Now CMII on the other hand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted April 16, 2001 Share Posted April 16, 2001 Well, from someone who has just upgraded himself, here's what I went from and to what I went to. From: Intel Celeron 433Mhz 66MHz FSB 128MB PC66 (equivalent) SDRAM 32MB Diamond Viper V770 TNT2 Ultra To: AMD Thunderbird 1.2GHz 266MHz FSB 256MB PC133 SDRAM 64MB DDR S/U/M/A/ Geforce 2 GTS(Pro AGP) Platinum Edition I can't begin to tell you the difference in game speed now. On my old system, with all of my hi-res mods installed (except grass), I was getting pretty poor framerates with any large map above 1000m x 1000m. Now I can run run everything including hi-res grass and HUGE maps silky smooth at 1152x864 resolution. And with CM2 engagement ranges likely to be longer than CMBO's, you can probably expect CM2 to have a lot of large maps. Combine that with probably a higher polygon count on the vehicles and more standard hi-res'ed textures, an upgrade is probably a good idea. Don't ever try to squeek by with the minimal system requirements. Do yourself a favor and get an upgrade while you still can! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
