The #1 reason why PR:V is going to be awesome

[Shaihuluid]

Because it's probably going to have graphics I can handle

C'mon devs, think of the players who've whined about the super-computer shenanigans required to run PR right now. This expansion offers an opportunity to provide an alternate way to have fun for the more low-tech end of the PR userbase. Please think of us while releasing this!

At the very least , I'm guessing PR:V will be less of a graphics-muncher just due to it's relatively young age.... but who knows, maybe the density of vietnam folliage really will kill

Well graphics looked pretty good in that trailer. Hopefully for at least 99% it will be playable but I'm sure it will be for everyone

imo im not going to like it if the GFX arent on par with normal PR. if it looks like battlefield vietnam, no thanks.

A HD5770 1GB is ~$160-170US, great card for the price and will work in any PCI-E16x/8x slot. It should probably be the minimum 'recommended' card for PR in its current state (for resolutions 1680x1050 and below). If you drop lower than that you're going to have FPS issues, PR is an innovative title, not something that rests on its laurels

[Sneak Attack]

i have a HD4670 in an XPS laptop and it dominates PR with everything maxed out. I hope the PRV maps are alot smaller then PR maps are now but with may more foliage and maybe some night time stuff or something

[Spush]

It is on the BF2 engine... I'm guessing it most likely will have the same shaders as the PR

[iAllex]

Actualy, I think it's going to be pretty interactive . With NO zoom/optics on weapons, tanks, etc. firefights will be interesting.... even if the game might gain an arcade-ish feel. Nobody can complain on deviation, as you don't see at big distances how much your bullets are off-target(but you will be succesfuly supressing enemies), and in CQB you won't even feel it.

I don't even have a bad pc to be honest. My pc should be able to run BF2 fine, infact I know it can cause I used to play with it on all high settings with AA on x8. But on PR, there is so much detail I get lag when I first join the server and it takes forever loading the maps even with no aa on and such.

[MadTommy]

Shaihuluid, sorry but i hope you are very wrong.... PR is an old game requiring only a modest PC to play on in terms of gaming PCs

The reason PR:V is gonna be cool is...Jungle & iron-sights and jungle does not equal high fps for you i'd guess.

I just hope it won't be blown out of the water by the next CoD. Yeah, supposedly the one of the next two will be Vietnam....

that's pretty cool though, not many modern games touch veitnam




i don think the graphics are going to be easier, i hope there is dense jungle and what not, which you computer wont like.

[gazzthompson]

Was PR blown out of the water by cod4 and 5 ? i really dont see your point.

i think bad company 2 took some players, which are slowly filtering back. pr has lasting appeal, others do not.

[PLODDITHANLEY]

PR style teamwork with a more 'simple' gameplay without so many 1337 toys.

I don't care about COD/BFBC/MW as its the 30 guys trying to work together that makes PR for me, everyone from CO to supplies squad are as vital as each other.

For all the problems of PR this is so true, we get annoyed sometimes but TW is irresistible.

[salaminl]

Ye it's all about run and gun these days, PR is just unique at all fronts.

[GrimSoldier]

I played PR on low detail with a 6600 SE Turocache... Thank god i bought a new computer.

Are Soviet or Chinese forces going to be included in the mod? Be great if they are

[Delaruz [29th ID]]

#1 Reason: Because it's Nam and everyone loves a good Nam story.

Soviet forces? Learn history, lad.
