Nobody here knows who I am but I've been a fan of PSO since the DC and migrated on over to the GC where I wasted hours among hours.

From what I've seen, its pretty much what I dreamed a sequel to PSO would look like.

As for the PC, does it have to be a desktop for this game to run smooth? Can it be a laptop?

I don't know anything about spec requirements, but from the looks of it, it's not exactly on the cutting edge, graphically. It's a bit disappointing, really. I'd guess most any new laptop with a dedicated graphics card would be able to play PSO2.

Yea, its not to demanding looking, theres a list of specs from the alpha testing around some where.

Great graphics or not tho, the game looks fun, and I plan to be there.

same here, I'm looking at desktops with 8gb ram, 720gb memory and GeForce gt 610 graphics cards, and laptops with 6gb ram, 500gb memory and radeon hd 6-7000 graphics cards. not trying to have best connection, like say theres 4 bars, 1 is bad, 2 is fair 4 is good and 4 is awesome. I just want 3= GOOD.

Is what I'm looking at good?

^ with lowered settings, you should have no problems.
Although not so sure on my side since I have an alienware FX with default options, etc.
But you should be fine with lowered settings

I have a Dell Inspiron M5030 with an AMD Athlon II P360 Dual-Core Processor. I got it off the shelf in summer 2011 at Best Buy for about $300, not worrying about graphics that much because I just needed something for school and wanted to save money at the time. It runs the game fine on lowered settings. The Forest is a little choppy or slower, and the sandstorm in Desert causes slowdown, but apart from that, it runs well enough for me. Only time I have problems playing online is when there's a lot of traffic in Japan at the time (mid- to late evening), and sometimes when an Emergency Quest comes up.

Striker, you should be running the game better than me. [face_tongue]

My laptop is barebones from 2011 and it's good enough to run the game. I'm thinking almost highest settings for you. You're fine.

Oh, wow, so that's 7 pm to midnight my time. That's pretty much perfect. Evening's the main time I have to get on.

EDIT: I play a Hunter, so if we quest together, you can hang back and pick 'em off while I rock them with my mad Partisan skills. :D

Bullet I just sent you a friend request so you should be receiving one from "strikerhunter" and "strikercypher"

I got and accepted it

You know I find it surprising that your character's name is the only one with that name in the entire ARKs search on the visiphone, lol normally nearly every good name possible is already taken but not yours. (including the cap sensitive part.)

Also, whenever I'm on and you need help or just want another person to make missions more interesting just send me a tell and I'll come. (click name on friends list and first option to send message if they are online.)

I'm sure theres a few characters named Gundam but I figured none would be named GundamWing, I like to stick out and be easy to find. on PSu I was also a big Blue cast but my characters name was Gundam GT

According to my friends list, you are still under my friend request. Did you accept one from strikerhunter or did you accidentally blackmail?
