Oh okay. Just as I thought, I can't answer your question.

Sorry.

Actually, I haven't played it much. I bought Call of Duty 4 and then Crysis right after that. I finished COD4, but haven't had much time to play Crysis either.
The graphics are really good on Quake Wars, but I have the feeling that an older system should be able to play it fairly well on medium settings. I have nothing to confirm that though.
The game itself seems pretty cool, but I was getting my arse handed to me on the very first battle. I didn't know much about the game as it just came with the video card. No manual of course. I would advance a little every time I restarted, but never finished the first level. I gather it's a little more strategic than the typical first person shooter. It looks like a really cool game so I'm sure I'll get back to it eventually.
