ArcheAge - a new generation of MMORPGs. More precisely, "almost new." The system requirements of Archeidge are quite high, and the optimization is lame. If you want to enjoy large-scale PVP and other pleasures of modern online games, get ready a powerful computer and get ready for problems. They will almost certainly be.
System requirements of Archeage on PC
For a normal game you will need a machine of the following configuration.
- Processor - at least i7 with a frequency of 4.4 GHz. You can try on i5, but in this case there may be problems.
- The video card is from the GTX 650 Ti. At least that’s what the official system requirements of Archeage say. In fact, a much, much more serious video adapter will be required.
- RAM - from 8 GB, but this will not be enough! Ideally, the system requirements for Archage at this point are about 16 GB.
- You will need at least 30 GB of free hard disk space. Ideally, it should work on SSD technology.
Will there be enough of such parameters?
Alas, the above system requirements of Archeidge do not guarantee a comfortable game. Even now, in the conditions of relatively empty locations, the game "slows down" in a number of ways. It is especially difficult during sieges and other public events. Do not forget that you will need a fast and stable Internet connection.
Running on a weak computer
Theoretically, ArcheAge can be played on a less powerful configuration. If you set all the settings to a minimum, you can use a computer with the following parameters:
- Core 2 Duo processor from 2 GHz;
- video card - from GeForce 7200+;
- RAM capacity - from 4 GB.
True, one cannot count on special comfort in this case. When entering the city, you will need to direct the camera down to the floor so as not to load the video card and processor with a large number of moving objects. During the siege, your character will be something completely useless, most likely, the player of the opposite team will kill him, not allowing him to get out of the “brakes”.
The operating system also matters. The game runs on Windows XP (be sure to update the video card drivers), but in this case the performance will decrease even more. The best option is Windows 7. On the G8, everything works just as well. But with the “ten” sometimes an unusual bug appears - after exiting the game, a mouse connected via USB stops working! To restore its health, follow these steps:
- remove the mouse from the port and reinsert it;
- if it doesn’t work, press Ctrl + Alt + Del and select “Change User”.
Reboot also helps.
