Administrators Nathan Posted January 2, 2013 Administrators Share Posted January 2, 2013 New game that's in beta. It's a lot of fun. If you need an invite let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Leigh Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Does it run on Linux? I have Windows 8 Pro for playing World of Warcraft but if there are good MMORPGs written to run natively on Linux, I am more than eager to give it a try.

Administrators Nathan Posted January 4, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted January 4, 2013 I haven't confirmed it myself, but I've seen others that claim it does. I'll look some more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nathan Posted January 4, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted January 4, 2013 Just confirmed yes it will run on Linux successfully with Wine. Let me know if you would like an invite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Leigh Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Thanks, but no thanks. Not if it runs under Wine. I might as well dual boot back into my Windows 8 Pro. That's the main reason why I am still using Windows. The rest of my work I do with Linux already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor Leigh Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Now I am tempted. What's the minimum hardware specs required to run the game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nathan Posted January 5, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted January 5, 2013 Now I am tempted. What's the minimum hardware specs required to run the game? System Requirements When installing the game it is recommended to have about 15 gb of free space before starting the install process, otherwise you may run into a SevenZipSharp error. The minimum system specs to run Firefall are: OS: Windows XP (32/64-bit) Processor (AMD): Dual Core @ 2.6 Ghz (Athon 64 x2, Athlon II x2, Phenom II x2) Processor (Intel): Dual Core @ 2.2 Ghz (Core 2, Core i3, Pentium Dual Core) GPU: DirectX 9 compatible AMD or Nvidia video card with 1GB RAM (AMD/ATI Radeon HD 4550 or Nvidia Geforce 8600) Memory: 4 GB The recommended system specs to run Firefall are: Processor (AMD): Quad Core @ 2.8 Ghz (Athlon II X4, Phenom, Phenom II X4) Processor (Intel): Quad Core @ 2.4 Ghz (Core 2 Quad, i5, i7) GPU: AMD/ATI Radeon HD 4850 or Nvidia Geforce GTS 450 MEMORY: 4 GB If your system meets these requirements, then this is the software necessary to run it. The installer will attempt to install this, but just to be on the safe side go ahead and preemptively install them. .NET Framework 3.5 SP 1 Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) DirectX End-User Runtime June 2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Leigh Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Looks like I am out of luck then. I only have a Celeron 1.2Ghz. Interestingly, with that I can play World of Warcraft using Windows 8 Pro. At about 35fps, too. Does Guild Wars have a low specs mode?

Administrators Nathan Posted January 6, 2013 Author Administrators Share Posted January 6, 2013 Even on high Guild Wars graphics were crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Leigh Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 LOL I am getting this thread confused with the Guild Wars thread. Maybe it's because the hardware requirements are similar. Which means that, with my current equipment, I can't play either. Looks like I will have to stick with World of Warcraft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qaximor Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Haven't played in over a year now. Has it changed much? Not a lot but thing got a lot better and more people came in to play so that what makes it really cool especially the PVP first time I played something like that so I really enjoy it from time to time but I am not hooked up on it yet.
