I have no idea whatsoever, but the likelyhood is yes. I mean, they wouldn't make it harder to run and stop some people playing it, would they?

Well, they can't leave it with the same system req's forever. I doubt there will be a significant change in the system requirements until vista or dx10 comes out. Although, if you look at the pre-order box picture, it does appear that you now need a DVD drive to install the game... either that or now they have a DVD version of the game as an alternate to the 2-CD version.

They actually updated the graphics system when Factions was released.

depends on how you want to install it, by it in the online shop and you don't get a physical install.
AN might up the requirements in later chapters, but from what I've bother to read on the requirements, it's staying about the same

I hope they update the game engine for Nightfall so people with high-end computers can really umm... unleash the raw power of their computers (Let's go with that). But at the same time, make a wider variety of changes to the options, so that people with not-so-high-end computers can still play it just as smoothly.

graphics are fine as is. One of the things i love about this game is the fact it can run on most PC's. Gameplay > Graphics ALLWAYS.

I sure hope so. Running on minimum as it is - they change that, it's the end of GW for me.

Yeah, but its a DVD-ROM drive. You can find one of those for less than $35.
