it runs fast though. except it takes like 30 seconds to start BL. and 1-2 mins to load a game (joining server for the first time) otherwise it takes 40 seconds to load.

Oh dear god... DEAR GOD NO!
Even my computer is more modern than that.
2.80ghz and 1 gig of ram like a boss.

Blocklands requirements are pretty minimal for these days, if you try to run anything higher like... Battlefield 2 you'll start to feel the slowness of the computer.

average is 2048 MB RAM, 150 GB HDD, 4 TPGHz CPU

:( you guys make me sad.

Looks like I need a new PC. or just upgrade.

Alyx Vance · June 14, 2012, 04:12:12 PM

Just get a new one, that would be your best bet.

Packer · June 14, 2012, 04:12:15 PM

New PC, upgrades will not cut it at all. For something relatively modern you'll have to spend around $1000 not including the OS.
