If possible, could you also make sure that the game is at least somewhat scalable for lower end PCs? Not low end, but mid-range. I've got a first generation Core i7 with a single GTX 570, and it would be pretty frustrating if that wasn't enough to push the game on at least low settings or something. :pasked by shadmere
It will - Advantage of a space game is that it scales down pretty easily- We already have multiple levels of LOD - so on lower spec machines you wont get the 7M poly carrier - but it will still look pretty damn good (as we will be able to have more polys than a normal AAA game as you don't need to have any polys for the environment as space is empty - which gives you a boost on what you can afford for ships and caharcters)
