Yup. I'm running a modest i7 3770, Radeon 6870, 16GB 1600 MHz RAM, 2x7200 RPM WD Blue in RAID 0 @ 1440x900 and I have to put pretty much everything on low for the game to run relatively smoothly.
I have the same gfx card
Until now I could run every current game with nearly all settings maxed out (AO I had to adjust mostly), there are pretty strong parallels with the Rome 2 start.
But what I played till now is fun. Sure, it has it's flaws but I still enjoy it. Not a GTA killer as some hoped but until Rockstar says otherwise, it's an enjoyable replacement.
I played with Tenne and this companion app, he was on the PC and I used my phone, and it was at least for me pretty cool. Switching lights and road blocks and watching the tiny car on your screen crash and struggle was fun. Haven't talked to Tenne yet, so no idea if it was fun for him too.
Djavo had a cool idea. The guy on the PC uses Twitch while the app-guy watches the stream and can actually see the chaos he is doing
I gonna try that hopefully at some point with someone.
My Uplay-nick is "Kamelle", so invite me for some online fun - when Ubi gets their server straight that is
