ooo looks awsome

Edit: Just realized, this is gonna be the first game that users will be able to screenshot and compare dx9 vs dx10 version o.o, although it's just a demo.

Demo Available for download in a lil over an hour
Found these system req's on the Capcom euro site:

Specifications – please note that these are not finalised and may be subject to change before release as we work to optimise the code

Minimum system requirements:
OS: Windows XP
CPU: Intel Pentium 4 HT
RAM: 512Mb (XP) / 1GB (Vista)
Hard Drive: 8 GB
Disc Drive: DVD9 compatible
Video: VRAM 256Mb. Direct X9.0c/Shader3.0
NVIDIA GeForce 6600 or greater
Sound: DirectSound compatible, Direct X9.0c
Peripherals: Mouse, Keyboard

Recommended system specifications:
Windows Vista
Intel Core 2 Duo
RAM: 2 GB (Vista) / 1 GB (XP)
Video: VRAM 512MB. Geforce 8800+

 

What's awesome is that all the Geforce 8800's and 2900's will be able to support that resolution, everything maxed out, AA turned up to maximum, at 30+ FPS.

 

maybe not the 2900s

 

The one pro of the HD 2900XT is that it supports 24X AA Other than that, I would prefer an 8800GTS.

 

Will the ATI Mobility RADEON HD 2600XT be able to have this on highest settings?

 

Found these links on FileFront for the demo.
The demo is not available YET, should be able to download it in 30 mins when it's released but here are the links:
Version:
dx9 (363.41 MB)
dx10 (379.31 MB)

 

Doesn't sound awesome to me... Just means that they have to cut down on the graphics to support that resolution. I'd rather have a game that yes, could run at that res, but could enable better graphics if you lowered the res.

Running at a high res is no challenge. Anyone could do that. Doing it with everything maxed just requires you to lower your reduce your graphics level across the board.

 

The demo will contain a system performance test, here's the results as well as system used by one of the workers @ Capcom:

Dell XPS, Intel Core2 6600 @2.4Ghz GeForce 7900 GTX, DX9c
Display resolution = 1280x720
AA=0
HDR=High
Texture filter = Anisotropic 4x
Texture resolution = Med
Shadow quality = Med
Shadow resolution = Low
Motion blur quality = Low
Effect resolution = High
Effect quality = High
Effect volume = low
Lighting quality = Med
V-Synch = Off
Concurrent Operations = 2

I was getting an average of 30fps in cave and 19fps in snow.

1600x1200 - 16x AF - HDR

Snow only:
Native Res everything med/low: average 15fps
default settings: didn't drop below 20, average 30 fps

In gameplay fps seem to go up, although I keep dying before I can finish the misison >.> In snow I seem to be getting about 30-40fps running around shotting stuff.

 

I cant get it to work, I get a missing d3ddx10_33.dll error..... ....too tired to mess with it now.

 

go here and download it, dx9 version said I was missing d3dx9_33.dll, most games include the dll's they need but I guess Capcom thought we had it already >.<

 

Review
http://www.legitreviews.com/article/505/1/

I doubt if any card will be able to get it to 25*16 with full details and AA,AF..

 

thought this was a 360 only game. guess I was wrong

 

I went to microsoft and downloaded the latest DX10 and it runs well, cant really say I'm much impressed by it though. 1360x760 was the highest res available for me, which I find odd, my lcd supports 1680x1050, at 1360x760 I can run it with all settings on high execpt for medium shadows, medium HDR 4x AA/16xAF, and get an average of 48fps in snow and 41 in the cave, with everything on high I get around 36 snow 29 cave. All in all its not as disappointing as the first ever DX8.1 offerings, ballistics was nothing more than a glorified tech demo, this has much more substance than that, though it still feels that gameplay has been left in the back row.

 

wow, talk about a direct 360 port. keyboard commands like Esc still dont wirk in the menus and you still have it telling you to hit the red "B" to go back a menu lol.

anyway here is what I got:

preloaded setting at 1920x1080 all medium settings
Snow: 45fps Cave: 65fps

maxed settings at 1920x1200 except shadow texture, wouldn't go past medium for some reason
Snow: 26fps Cave: 41fps

this was on my desktop in my sig. will post if I get a chance to try it out on my notebook.

 

LOL, i can't wait to know how does it fare on your notebook.

 

This game raped my S96J. I'm geting 7~11 FPS in the benchmark on mostly medium settings. Changing all settings to low/none has little effect.

Specs:
Intel T2400 @ 1.83Ghz
2 GB RAM
Mobility X1600

 

Changing settings doesn't have much effect somehow. I get fps between 15 and 45 with snow landscape (avg fps is 29 snow, 27 cave). I used the standard settings. At high settings with 1280*960 res i get between 14 and 35 fps.

 

Well, I got the performance test of the demo to run, I can't run the game though, it locks up and I have to reboot.

When I ran the performance test I think I was getting something like like 42 Snow and 45 Cave with all setting cranked all the way, except the resolution was at 1280 x 960 I believe. Anyway, I download the demo off Steam. Does it have to run off Steam does anyone know? I'd rather just run it without Steam.

 

The demo shouldnt have anything to do with steam.

 

I downloaded it through Steam. Then I went and downloaded it off of fileplanet. It still crashes on me. Kind of odd. Ah well, they do throw a big disclaimer on it so I can't say I am entirely surprised.

 

How did you guys get the demo to work? I downloaded both the dll's that are needed, but whenever I run it, it just exits.
I'm running this on my G1s.

 

Same here, it raped my S96J, I tried different settings and such but still raped.
