Mirror's Edge Catalyst won't run on Pentiums

[VirtualLarry]

There are workarounds. There are lots of youtube videos showing the game running on dual cores, and besides that was the beta. We don't know if that issue is still present.

Yeah, that was an error in the multi-threaded programming model they used for the game. It's not a "CPU is too weak" issue. Though running on a quad-core might have masked the error.

That's why they have beta testing!

Um, reading comprehension fail!

The article clearly states that they tested the retail version, and not the beta.

Warning, Game Stopper! Surprised we realized that The Division in the final version with a pure 2-core / thread processor starts. However, after almost five-minute charging time we ran reproducible on an invisible wall (in the picture)! Apparently remain threads of streaming stuck, the world does not load properly

How many more excuses are we going to have to listen to before you admit that dual core CPUs cannot run The Division?
