SolidWing68 Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 I say similar to MVP Baseball 2004 because look at 2003 and 2004's reqs MVP Baseball 2003 ---------------------------- OS: Windows XP/Me/2000/98 CPU: 500 MHz Intell Pentium III or AMD Athlon RAM: 64 MB (128 for Windows XP/2000) CD/DVD-Rom Speed: 8x Hard Drive Space: 700 MB Video: 16 MB Direct 3D w DirectX 8.1 Compatibility MVP Baseball 2004 ---------------------------- OS: Windows XP/Me/2000/98 CPU: 700 MHz Intell Pentium III or AMD Athlon RAM: 128 MB (256 for Windows XP/2000) CD/DVD-Rom Speed: 8x Hard Drive Space: 700 MB Video: DirectX 9 Compatibility see the comparision? not big at all..

Cubs-Blew-It-Again Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Just curious, has anyone ever run MVP 2004 on a machine with the minimum specs. (or close to it)? If so, how does it perform? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those specs are not correct. 1) The mvp baseball 2005 official site is not up, 2) its not listed on easports yet under baseball, 3) ea wants almost all there games to be computer friendly so almost anyone can play.

Yeah, but the graphics are almost the same with last years version. It's a sport game, it's not Doom 3. A Radeon 8500 or a GeForce 4 Ti will be able to run the game fine, i'm sure about that.

A Radeon 8500 or a GeForce 4 Ti will be able to run the game fine, i'm sure about that. Yeah..I understand. So I guess the requirement would be a Direct X 9 compatible card?... The only video card feature I think that they might require would be hardware T&L, which in turn affects the new lighting engine they put in this year. Try running Live 2005 if you have the game and if the lighting effect works perfectly, it would work for MVP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a GeForce FX 5200 and i experience choppy gameplay but i believe MVP 05 will run great with this card. If it doesn't it doesn't matter a lot, i'll go with the XBOX version of the game.

Xbox version means no mods but roster updates (if even that you would need a game shark or a modded Xbox for rosters) I have a ati 9800 pro in my desktop and 2.8 Ghz cpu and MVP 2004 has never ran smooth but it ran smoth on my current laptop 2.53 Ghz with a Geforce 440mx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kccitystar Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 what new lighting engine? Alrighty...I'll break it down for you. Take a look at this Vernon Wells pic for 2005. The player's body looks kinda glossy. Now, lets look at the lighting engine from Live 2005... you may not really see it, but the player's body looks glossy also.

SolidWing68 Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 yea i see it in both pics but you had to be doing 10 types of drugs to put 256(512 for XP/2000) cause they've used 128(256 for XP/2000) for how long now you freakishly obsessed modification modding man. Go do some more of whatever it is your on and then re-post with the reqs with 1024 for XP/2000. Oh I forgot to add dont forget 512 for minimum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
