Anyone here tried out the demo yet?

It runs fairly smoothly on my underpowered, cobbled together computer with all settings set on medium. And it looks beautiful.

Which for reference;
+3400 64bit AMD (2nd gen, 2nd hand)
1 gig DDR
7600GT, 256mb, not overclocked.

So far, it's not too bad at all, the game play is actually fairly well done, you can't exactly play rambo constantly and expect not to die, but the lack of rifles, aka scoped ones, in the demo is making sniping a royal pain in the ass. Though the level is well designed enough to allow you to find some ingenious means of taking out or avoiding the ever friendly locals. Not to mention fun with physics, i.e. taking out a building by driving a jeep into it and blowing the jeep up... Conveniently taking out most of the NK's at the same time.

I don't think this will run well on my 6800, but my dad promised me he'll upgrade the GPU before Christmas, so there is still hope.

I'm still downloading the demo as I type, can't wait to try it out!

Depending on your CPU, you should be able to run everything on medium with out taking a huge hit, possible even high,


Don't worry about the opening scene though, even those with uber rigs take massive frame rate hits on that.
