System Requirements for PoE is a joke
" an intel HD isn't a real GPU it allows your processor to handle 3D applications better, its more an utility than a real card. You should get a Nvidea or Radeon card whatever is more price effective for you to buy (discard brand fanboyism). The Nvidea M970 and M980 chips are excellent for the laptop as GPU they have power equivalent to roughly 70% of the GTX 970 and 980. Though you better live in the USA to buy this at an affordable price. In Europe gaming laptops are through the roof expensive, and you can't really put a 3d card in yourself like with a desktop. | |

The problem is that this retarded game dosn't take it's resorces from the gpu it take it from cpu....
I have a RadeonR7 370 256 bus 4g memory and poe uses 80% cpu all the time my cpu Amd2x2 3.4Gz on a 4g ram ddr 3 .... So my question is this why does a game whit medium graphics kill your pc's cpu ? God bless poor management u sell 1000 skins and can't afford decent programers :( sad it had problems in the past but now Prophecy league is the wors by far as performance goes. | |

How do you have system requirements for poorly written code and unstable servers?

Well I have 2 PC's that me and my wife play from. The lowest is her 10 year old Intel PC:
Mobo: Biostar P4M90-M7A CPU: Intel Pentium Dual Core E6180 at 1.8 Ghz GPU: Galaxy Nvidia GeForce 9600 GT 512 GDDR3 RAM: 4 GB DDR2 And it runs on Medium :) with DX9 EX or DX 9 set in the options. With the latest Patch. So the minimum must be lower than this. | |
" That adds so much to the conversation. Are you a programmer? Have you written your own graphics engine? |
|
" um, thats really nice. I tried to play PoE on 3,10 GHz AMD Dual-Core cpu / Radeon HD6450 1GB gpu / 4GB RAM and I was unable to reach 40fps on 1024x768 all low:( feelsbadman | |
" You dont have to be a programmer to see that the game engine is dogshit. I have a RX 580+ R5 1600x and the fps jump like crazy, even in towns when ppl with a lot of mtx run arround. I can play other more resource hungry games without any issues. |

No, the game isn't "perfectly optimized". Far from. But that doesn't change the fact that it's pretty "unfair" to blame everyone else for the fact that you can't run the game perfectly fine on a 4-5 years old system.
If this game is to "move forward" in terms of graphics and optimization, they have to take advantage of today's technology. And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that continuously supporting very old systems might become a bottleneck for future development. And I'll repeat myself: No, the game isn't perfectly optimized. Yes, there is work to be done - especially in the AMD GPU department. But - just because it's a F2P game, doesn't mean you can demand to be able to run it smoothly on old systems. Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.

" i'm far from being expert in graphics programming, but i do program angular sites. I know this: coding a simple webpage that would look good on: ie/firefox/chrome/safari and would be responsive to different resolutions (some use 800*600, some use 1920*1024 etc etc) is HARD. we always have issues with that on work, and that's just a simple webpage. Creating a graphical engine that would cover ALL graphic cards, with different resolution, different computer specs, are almost impossible. even the huge companies, like Rockstar/Blizzard/EA have issues with the variety of graphic cards. it's easy to diss the code. believe me, i see occasional glitches, but the code of POE is breathtaking. so many factors, so many details to be calculated... i think it's amazing. | |
