Its so much of an improvement in almost all ways, and yet, people still find the need to b*tch about it.

The new version performs significantly worse, so if you had trouble running 3.1, forget about this one. Biggest complaint I heard so far. Impossible to play on a p500.

If it's no harsher than half life half life will run on pretty well anything. If you have a TNT card and a P2 450 you're set.

The new rain, fog and smoke totally torture the frame rate. Its much much worse now, but it wont matter to those of us with 2ghz and Radeons.

Hmm...I have a celeron 1000 with a gf3, but I'm gonna see if I can get half life installed again.

BTW anybody wanting this the top france server linked on the main site in downloads I'm getting 150k/sec from.

With that setup you'd prob have to set the detail at medium if you want 60fps. Its not that bad until you get into a firefight.

With my XP2000+, 9500Pro, 1024x768 with 2xAA, at high detail, I can barely get a solid 60fps at all, and it drops to about 30 in a firefight.

I'd say the engine runs about as well as MOHAA, maybe just a bit under UT2003. Certainly doesnt look like UT2003, so you've got to wonder.

Well I'll give it a go. I don't deserve to play it anyway since I've waited so long between upgrades. :D
