Call of Duty Advanced Warfare Recommended System Specs Revealed

[OfficialJsP]

Activision revealed the minimum system requirements for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare earlier this week, and they're pretty steep. Now the recommended specifications have been unveiled on Steam, and if you have a hat, I suggest you hold onto it.

 

The good news is that the 55 GB drive space requirement hasn't ballooned any, but that's still some pretty heavy iron. Looks like my poor ol' Core 2 Quad and I will be waiting awhile to play this one.

i was hoping that this was not going to be a crappy port like every other recent CoD but from what the recommended system specs are telling me is that its going to be super unoptimized or have some "next gen" graphics and physics #Kappa

[themaniac]

well it will take some power to run it which is a good thing

[askmax]

A gtx 760? Thats a joke, im sure it will look the same as the past 5 have and will run on a gt 610. Unless ofcourse the optimization is terrible which is possible considering ghost.

[ViruZ_HUN]

well it will take some power to run it which is a good thing

it is  bad thing:D

[brownninja97]

they better learn to optimize fast or they are in deep shit

if i remember right this one is being made by the new team sledgehammer games so it might need the gtx 760 for the medium setting

[themaniac]

why?

[ViruZ_HUN]

why?

because not everyone got good systems to reach such high spec expectations?

 

Could you not figure out it yourself?

well the gtx 760 might be needed to max it out 

[Imabigmac]

Well that's not as bad as I thought.

Better than unity's requirements arm.

[Altecice]

The large space req is due to lotsa "true to life" cutscenes.

[Rheinwasser]

well it will take some power to run it which is a good thing

that was the same with ghosts.

it takes up 55gb of space -> its a bad port.

[PutuLips]

55 gigs? They should recommend a 1TB hdd while they're at it.

 

The reason they are recommending such a high-end GPU (in comparison to previous CoDs) is because they use Mega Textures, so the additional VRAM allows for more high-res textures to be loaded.

I highly doubt that anything that could run Ghosts on medium wouldn't be able to play this at about the same quality.

 

This is a gameplay video on xbox one:

The graphics actually look good -- far better than the previous ones. There seems to be realtime variance buffered shadows, motion blur, DoF, particle effects, quite realistic lighting, realistic skin shaders, material shaders, (possibly) realtime reflections and (possibly) some physically-based rendering. It's a new engine designed for newer processing techniques and architecture.

A 760 was the recommended specs for Ghosts. It's probably just to cover for the poor optimization.

[Tonylu1595]

Gt 430, you're up.

[shiftberry]

4GB VRAM? That's completely wrong, my tiny DX10 GPU won't run any new title nowadays! 

[7850OC]

yea, just... "burn" all yours 3GB cards (and 2GB cards) that you may have  lol

[Dr.Derp]

First AC Unity now this crap, at least minimum specs aren't GTX680, but 760 is what just little weaker than 680?

[Swndlr]

55+ gigs? lmao as if any of us were actually gonna buy it regardless, that just puts it as a def. no for me. did they even mention if it will run at 60 frames on xbone? if not then LMAO!

Memory: 6 GB RAM

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 @ 1GB / ATI Radeon HD 5870 @ 1GB or better

I think a GTS 450 is an acceptable minimum requirement

[Mindtrickz]

Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 @ 4GB DirectX: Version 11

 

[ACatWithThumbs]

The 4GB Vram is the only thing that seems off.
They stepped up the graphics quiet a lot in Advanced Warfare the game has more graphic features than Battlefield 4 so it's not unreasonable.

I never bought a Cod in my life but this might be the first one if the port is actually good like Black Ops2 and not like Ghosts.

[suicidalfranco]

I bet it can run with a 650@1GB and 4GB of RAM

[emachado99]

A 4GB 760..? WTF is this shit?

[sannukas0016]

A 4GB 760..? WTF is this shit?

It's not shit, it's a 4gb GTX760.

Did people not know that there is a 4gb version of GTX760?
