RS Mods will not allow it because I am not an RS sponsor.
you guys should riot

I got the official quote and it would save everyone $30 on a video card and like over $100 on a processor.

High end video cards would save like 50+

That would be cool as hell.
It shouldn't even be that hard to put into the game should it? I mean, GT5 has that feature.

that'd be pretty unrealistic, would rather it slowly fade between sunrise and sunset

I am curious to know as well. I am thinking about preordering with a US address and hope that they will let me play the beta?

Anyone have any better ideas or does anyone know if my method will work? Maybe they'll ban ips from outside the US?

Was there a specific type of CPU/Video Card that everyone had to get or they could choose anything? I wonder how many others are interested in this.

Edit: didn't know there was a multi+ quote sorry for posting twice.

GTX 570 anyone? GTX 580 is far too expensive ...

I hope I don't need to upgrade anything else..

Currently :Core i5 760, 8gb ram, GTX 460 (soon to be 570!)

Also just bought a TX750 power supply cuz my current 500 W is giving me bluescreens occasionally...

edit:

To the techies - Should I save some $and go for the MSI 570 spend a little extra for better cooling with the ASUS 570 :S I've read mixed reviews, and I'm not really sure what would be the wiser choice

If only this was recorded in 1080 !!

Is it just me or does the player aircraft movement seem a bit choppy?

For anyone who hasn't seen this or hasn't preordered yet, I found a site with a great price.
