Signed up here even though I don't have the game yet & might not be able to get it for awhile, & my poor over 4 years old Computer is barely meeting its Minimum Requirements, yet it's sucked me in after all my watching LiftPizzas's Lets Play Vids! (As of the time of this Post, i'm on S2 E20.) This game is looking SO my cup of tea & i'm planning it to become my next game to get whenever I can manage it! Sandboxes i've played before thus far (That I can remember.) is Terraria, Starbound, Minecraft, Space Engineers, (Hiatused from this game for many Months then tried to return to it only for its RAM Requirements to have jumped up to TWICE what my poor over 4 years old Computer has... ) Planet Explorers, & Skyrim. My poor over 4 years old Computer has a 2.8Ghz Quad Core, 4GB of RAM & a SAPPHIRE ATI Radeon HD 4850 Graphics Card with 1GB of VRAM.
I might give that a try after I get the game just to see if I can learn anything from other's Designs... but real fast i'll wanna do my own thing & engage in Mad Empyrion Science with my building soon enough. (Example: Has anyone tried using Black Painted Interior Walls with no Lights deep inside a Base to make a big evil Mouse Maze?)
