Might switch from Wow -> EQ2Follow

#1 May 25 2006 at 10:53 AM Rating: Default
OK so after long though I'm thinking of switching mmorpg's...

After reading many threads, I noticed that EQ2 had MORE to offer than WoW, thats what is bringing me to EQ2. Oh and also the fact that you get to choose what class you want to be later on...

Can anyone send me a link or tell me where I can download a trial version of EQ2?

Also how do you think my computer can run EQ2 its ...

Amd Athlon 2400+ ( 2.0ghz)
Ati Raedon x700 Pro 256mb
512mb RAM
56k modem :( (I can't get anything better where I live)

ALSO - How much is EQ2 month? is there any special deals like youc an pay for 6 months? or 1 year? if so how much is it?

Thanks, All replies are apprciated.

Upgrade your RAM to 1 GB. Trust me.

Also, they changed things a bit so you actually choose your final class when you create your character. They did away with the weird class progression thing.

Really?

I'm no computer whiz but that seems odd.

I could see a really old PC not supporting more, and the rest of the specs would support that... Though unless he put in the video card himself than I wouldn't think it is that old, since I do believe the X700 isn't a really old card, so mobos out then should support more then 512. But, that CPU is an older model I believe so it makes me wonder.

Maybe it isn't a mtter of supporting but not having free slots for ram? 2 slots only isn't uncommon for semi-old PCs and I could see someone who doesn't know a lot about PCs knowing you can take out the ram and replace it with larger sticks. But the vid card/cpu combo has me interested... I'm not saying the OP is dumb or anything, but that is weird. Think you can give us the make of your mobo?

As for EQ2 running... it should run, but it'll probably look like crap. Personally I run 2gig of ram with a 128 vid card and 2ghz cpu (Athlon xp 64 3000+) and run comfortable on just above the "medium" settings. Well, that was what I used as a base setting then I tweaked some things like lighting, water, shadows, animation...
