No need to argue on particular laptop models here guys.

They removed the recommended system specs, they might be found in other places but isn't it suspect that they removed them from the game's main site?

So we have:

1) Minimum system requirements are completely misleading. The game will run like crap on them.
2) Recomended system requirements are gone, because they rather not tell you that you need an i7 and a matching GPU to run the game well.


They have lot of optimizations to do, but lots of people would be content with being able to trade eye candy level for some frames per second and a cooler system.
