C'mon CCP. Grow some gonads and tell us what the minimum graphics requirements are NOW so that we at least know what to look for to upgrade or buy new/used systems before we get locked out of the game.

If you'd have bothered to actually read the linked blog about the graphics card, you'd see it's already been announced in October. The only thing that's unclear is the exact moment this will become a minimum requirement. Reading is cool. It makes you learn stuff.

There's always one smartass. As a matter of fact I did read the linked blog and probably read more in a month than you do in a year. Yeah, reading is cool, but reading without comprehension makes us say stupid things (especially in forums).

If you'd have bothered reading my post with any comprehension, you'd have noticed that I mentioned there are other players in the forums who also can't access the CC even though they have SM3 or SM4 capable cards so there is something else changed too. Besides that, the October blog simply states that the change will be sometime in the future. Well SURPRISE!!! The CC already requires it and when the grace period is up, that means anyone without SM3 and whatever else has changed is not going to be able to play EVE even though their systems have been able to handle EVE up to this point with no issues. The CC is non-gameplay related currently (until Incarna launches) but people are going to be locked out of the game anyway. THAT is my point. Why say the graphics announcements will come at a later date when they are ALREADY required?! ANNOUNCE IT ALREADY! It should have been announced before the expansion was launched.

I'm on a limited budget right now (as I'm sure many others are in these times) and will probably purchase a used system or build one with less than top-of-the-line hardware, but I don't want to buy something without knowing it will run EVE (or, more accurately, the CC).
