thatr definitly ingame screenshots.
this game comes for pc and xbox360. so u get an idea of the system requirements for that title.
i guess u need something like this; 2ghz, 1gig ram, 128mb vid ram gfx card just to play it at a moderate resolution wit medium details. (well im glad i got my new comp, so im not that worried about this, but it will disappoint alotta ppl with older machines i think, and i feel a bit sorry for them)

HMM a high spec game then :S just likeX3: reunion (http://www.egosoft.com/games/x3/info_en.php). that game was beautifull to see but has like very high specs. i think 2.6GB to operate. and also the game play was very buggy... beides most game now are still for 1.6 or lowers  


Title: Legacy Info
Post by: KL0K on March 13, 2006, 03:11:25 PM
well.. thats what i think. i mean, the fact that it comes out for the new xbox and not the older one, should give u a clue bout the minimum specs to play it smoothly :ph34r:

specs of your system..?


Title: Legacy Info
Post by: Cpt Ryan on March 14, 2006, 04:16:12 PM
1.8Ghz
256mb RAM
64mb Geforce (2 or 4 cant remember which)


Title: Legacy Info
Post by: KL0K on March 15, 2006, 05:06:36 AM
hm.. then its prolly cause of the fact that the game has a directx7/8 path.. but.. if the newer games keep it at a directx9 path (and thats how it will be cause of evolution of the hardware :D) for all the fancy stuff n eyecandy.. then ull prolly need to upgrade at least the ram and gfx card.

yep i know i'll have to some day, but its getting the funds to get something worthwhile. (i.e. something that aint gonna be made obsolete 5 mins after you unpack it at home)

BTW i have DirectX 9c and CoD 2 runs fine even when things start to get hectic, and you start lobbing smoke grenades everywhere.
min requirements of CoD2 (from reading the case)

DirectX9c
1.4Ghz
256Mb (512 recommended)
100% DX 9c compatible sound card

Heh, by this time next year I should have 15
AMD FX I think 57
2 GB Ram
1 GB Nvidia Gforce 7800 (2x512mb)

LOl to be honest with all games at the moment u Really do not need anything past


AMD Athlon BArton 2600+
1024mb Ram
80GB UDMA 6 HDD
Radeon 9600PRO

like if u really want to push the boundaries then get say a 6800 but to be honest games just dont use the power

like why the **** would u buy an Athlon FX 57 its like ur NEVEr going to use the processin power ever and with COnroe on the way its gonna put it to shame and im an AMD fanboy so **** INTel is gonna kick the **** outta AMD in July

as for the £300 Graphic cards there is just no need like right now i heard of someone who sold a 7800GTX to by a 7950 and u just think Why ??

its not exactly more than a maximum of 10fps difference and to top it off what really gets me is why buy 2 7800 on SLI ur never gonna use it LOL

the card i think that will shine at the moment though and value for money is the

7600GST its gonna be a good price and give u decent performance as for processor wait till COnroe arrives

Greetings!

@ cod: Call of duty 2 has a special option to use a directx 7/8 renderer instead of the new directX9 renderer and all the Shader 3.0 stuff;

A other sarcastical comment:

i bet 5 bucks that maddoc will screw this game

oh what are those cylinders at the hull of the tactical cube? and they don't use the original weapon sounds so far. hmm let's say 25 buck!

Come on yous, they are in a aphla game right now so stop with this, they are still testing things, all those videos from the game are from Aphla beta tests, the game is not fully finished yet so i would just sit back and enjoy the wait playing FO! :lol:

It should be good throwing bethesda into the mix. TES series is great, and I have played the **** out of Oblivion and I'm still not finsihed the main story.

I play Oblivion too and I can also say the main story is well very long :rolleyes:  


Title: Legacy Info
Post by: Cpt Ryan on June 20, 2006, 04:32:50 PM
its not long, its just that if you are only going to play oblivion for the main story, and not for everything else that is in that world you just not playing it for the right reasons.


Title: Legacy Info
Post by: Smoerebroed on June 27, 2006, 04:05:54 PM
I just wonder why everyone is so excited about Oblivion. The world of the game is big ok, it looks good; ok BUT the world is hollow inside Gothic was better, even if i don't like gothic that much. I wait for NWN 2; about Legacy: i'm pessimistic-> they screw it

New screenshots of legacy on GamesSpot Legacy Screens (http://www.gamespot.com/pc/sim/startreklegacy/screenindex.html)

The New Defiant looks awsome.  :thumbsup:

Post by: Cpt Ryan on July 20, 2006, 12:31:09 AM
lol beat me to it, :P . anyway Rick knox gets a mention in the interview :omg: i didnt know he was working on it. cool
for those that dont know rick knox has done a LOT of modding for SFC series and then some.

hmmm... looking at the new screenies, i gotta say the ships do look quite good (perticually the defiant ;) ) but the weapons namely the phasers just look off. fat is another word to describe does effects, look pretty poor compared to the effort thats gone into the ship models.

Edit2: i just had a thought, in most of the other trek games you could convert the models to go into other games, so maybe when legacy comes out well see some of those models in A2 or BC or something. lol that Defiant is now looking even better :D

Edit 3: lol didnt even realise you didnt link to the interview (http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/sim/startreklegacy/news.html?sid=6154242&mode=recent)

i think its mentioned somewhere that legacy will be moddable, forget where. my guess is it will be about as moddable as SFC 3 & Bridge commander.

In one of the early interviews, the dev interviewed said that we thank the community for supprting us through this time and in light of that, will help them when the game comes out", words to that effect.

Basically, in as many words as not, it should be possible to mod.

Post by: The Old Man on August 06, 2006, 07:29:22 PM
Has anyone of you guys taken a look at the trailer?
I guess we all are gonna like Legacy - just take a CLOSE look!  :lol:

Slap me around if I'm wrong, but I'm quite sure there's some kind of Descent in it. After that shock I have to admit: The FO Descent looks fantastic!

 :ph34r:

But.. I'm looking forward to get at least a demo of it to play.  ^_^

Its been a while since the last post, but I hope I get an answer.

I checked some screenshot galleries, with a lot of nice ships and pictures.
DS9, Romulans, Borg, Klingons.....
but not a single Dominion ship.

I am a fan of the dominion and now I want to know if anyone has some Dom-screenshots. Or did they really not implement the Dominion ???


Title: Legacy Info
Post by: Jan on November 12, 2006, 09:04:01 PM
There hasn't been any information/screenshots from the Dominion. I doubt they are in the game because DS9 and Voyager is just a small part in the storyline....more a submission style. One of so many things ppl don't have any idea issue Legacy.

just wait; if the sales are good enough; they will pull them out(the dominion) in the mission-pack; if the sales are not good; Bethesda will pull of the same **** as with Oblivion (2 Dollar online-download-only addons)
AND if they don't event do this:: MODS

how so, you would, basically have to drop very file assertion and reinvent it, I see a closer tie to the SFC III engine.

might explain why they havn't release the a2 source code, tho the a2 engine is so out of date.. i mean come on, i dnt thing the did reuse it... if they did, then what the hell happened the first time round to end up with the curent a2 engine! lol.

Post by: 8_of_11 on November 24, 2006, 02:54:39 AM
Bethesda released modding tools for the TES games; I'd hope they do the same for Legacy. The Construction Set can be a pain to navigate sometimes (name all your files with either 00 or zz at the beginning so you can find them alphabetically listed), but it's WAY better than looking through folder mazes and jumping between .odf files opened in a text document.


Title: Legacy Info
Post by: eoraptor on November 24, 2006, 04:09:06 AM
Well, there's very little fundamentally wrong with the A2 engine (just look at FO for examples. Future 1.0 and other mods do pretty well too, considering how slap-dash some of them can be.) Most people just like to complain because its not the latest greatest thing since sliced bread (IMHO)

Unless you can think of something specific you'd like to see that's not able to be executed in the A2 framework, don't complain. Why knock a game that's not even out there being tested yet is what I always wondered about the gaming community.

Post by: ewm90 on November 28, 2006, 02:31:46 AM
I got some very unfochinit infomation about legisy:

ewm90 Posted: Fri Nov 17, 2006 12:50 am    
Thare are so few races.

How time cosuming do you thing it will be to add a new race...

You will probly have to make modern and antiquated ship. You will have more stats to add to ech ship and more textchers.


I just woryed that it mite take so much work people will have to whate a year be for a new race is made.  

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Nomad Posted: Fri Nov 17, 2006 2:52 am    

A new race is just a series of ships attributed to a given race. I don't think you can add races but instead will be limited to replacing an existing race.
