Dont be fooled by those system req, this game runs like a total garbage, you will have more fps in black desert than int his game
PC Specs
Can I run ArcheAge?
PC Specs
Can irun it without lag ? Any Settings
PC Specs
Hello?
Can I run this on the lowest settings but 1366x 768?
If yes, how much fps?
PC Specs
how dis run fo me?
PC Specs
this game has the worst optimization ever ! i cant get a stable 60fps on medium settings !
PC Specs
Its my loptop spec.
Intel Core i7-4720HQ up to 3.6
GeForce GTX960 4Gb
8Gb DDR3 RAM 1600
Can I max this game on 4k without problems ?
PC Specs
obviously yes
PC Specs
Can I even run it?
PC Specs
Yeah, on the lowest at 720p
PC Specs
hey, what about me?
PC Specs
now i have this game on high settings with 60 fps with my current resolution, but i will buy a new monitor 1920x1080, how many fps i will drop?
PC Specs
Game is RAM and CPU intensive, on high you may have 60FPS in peaceful zones, if you will use DX9, DX11 isn't perfectly released, also it's MMORPG on Cryengine so FPS drops are guaranteed.
PC Specs
My rig meets recommended requirements, yet it won't run smoothly even at Medium settings. DX9 or DX11, either way it has the same output, unless I lower my res.
PC Specs
Turn off HDR and SSAO, also change "Action mode" and "Classic Mode" in menu and look what it will give.
Also I recommend you to use DX9 for stable FPS in masses.
This game isn't optimized at all, also created on Cryengine, it's good graphical engine, but worst for Multiprocess games as ara MMORPGs.
PC Specs
It was none of the above. I checked nvdia graphics panel and found that nvdia optimus was forcing intel graphics for ArcheAge and i couldn't even change it
PC Specs
Nice to hear that you fix it
PC Specs
Anyone who has same problem as me, look up "Fix Archeage Graphics Problem" Fixed mine, and now it runs smoothly on Very High in peaceful zones otherwise Medium
PC Specs
hey guys, can i run this at 60 fps medium or high settings?? =)
PC Specs
Game isn't GPU intensive, but illogically eats RAM resources, badly optimized, but you should get Tweaked high setting without problems (60 FPS), but: 1. DX11 is badly release even for high end machines so better use DX9 (if you're not graphicall maniac you will not see differences). 2. it's MMO so in massive territories like cities or PvPE battles you will have huge FPS drops, it's Cryengine so nothing will help there.
PC Specs
Can i run this?
PC Specs
You should handle Ultra without any problems, with some FPS jumps in Masses (Cities, mass PvP, atc...).
PC Specs
My laptop scored:
CPU:7
GFX:3
RAM:6
is it worth trying to run it?
WOW is very slow sometimes.
PC Specs
Could I run this at 25-35 FPS? Don't care about the quality, this game just looks amazing!
PC Specs
Try it, this Game is 4 free. But with your rig, yes maybe on low. Bu you will have a hard time in cities or group fights.
PC Specs
Ok, thanks, I think I'll give it a go (Maybe it's better optimised for the PC I'm using, I've heard it's very strange when it comes to that :S )
PC Specs
In my experience it's very RAM intensive and your RAM is more than enough to play it smoothly, also as any MMORPG it will push CPU too, can't say how your will handle it, and your video is quite enough to play it on tweaked settings (if use DX 9, DX 11 in this game is badly released for high-end machines too).
Also it's F2P so try it, game works quite differently on different machines.
PC Specs
Settings for me? I really wanna play this Game in Ultra :/
PC Specs
Can I run at least 60fps?
I played it on my old machine and couldn't do 60 fps, so I wonder if what I have now will work.
PC Specs
with that ring .... very easily, enjoy :)
PC Specs
Game is RAM intensive and created on Cryengine and cos works as a tractor, but with this rig you will not have less then 50FPS in PvP, normally you will have 120FPS I think.
PC Specs
What you think? Can i run it?
PC Specs
as long as you have decent INternet, probably. I'm above minimum and plan to give it a try, so if I can run it fine, I know you can without issue. If I remember to I'll update this post to let you know for certain
PC Specs
okay I did try it, and I got -30FPS in the open worlds, everything set on low, at 1360x768, except character models which were at the first step up from low.
IN settlements I dropped to 10-15FPS, but there were a lot of NPCs and characters. You'll probably have to run at a lower res though, 720p like I ran, not 1080p.
PC Specs
Nothing then. I can't play on low, it probably looks like
PC Specs
I'd say maybe low, it's free2play so you can always download it and try. definitely don't see you running it at 1080p though. Despite decent hardware, the game's just too demanding.
PC Specs
Can I run it, and if yes what settings and fps, thanks
PC Specs
In peaceful zones on low settings you will have smooth enough gameplay, but forget about big cities, forests, farms, PvE content, PvP and Sea battles. Official sys reqs show what specs you need to run it, but not to play it.
Game works as a tractor even on high-end machines.
PC Specs
ok, thanks for the info
PC Specs
I see the game is pretty CPU and RAM intensive, which i have pretty much of, so what settings and FPS might i get? :)
PC Specs
32 GB RAM, 3.6 Ghz..?..
I hate you! I hate you mate..!
Enjoy on Ultra (-120 FPS), but don't forget it's MMORPG in open world, so you may have FPS drops in areas where are a lot of other players.
PC Specs
lol :D thx for responding, bro!
PC Specs
can i run this okay?
PC Specs
try on low, but not sure if you will run it smoothly cos of your CPU (game is very unstable and have really bad optimization), also you RAM is enough to run it on med to high and GPU norm to run it low.
PC Specs
yeah you'll be fine on low, you might get a framerate drop in highly populated areas though.
