Kaiserklein is Back!!

Post by DamagedBananaBread »

He's reinstalled the game, and come out of retirement in dramatic fashion to once again take the #2 spot on the leaderboard. Kaiserklein has returned! Welcome back!

Unconfirmed reports suggest that you need 3090 to play at 30 fps on 1080p, and even then in intense battles it drops to 24-25 fps.

"Hi I'm just writing to request for a refund. Although I have played 1k games, won a couple of tournaments, won a few thousand dollars, I'm finding that the game doesn't run well on my machine. Thanks for your understanding"

With the lack of computer components nowadays I think it's easy to buy a PC for a normal price and get subpar components. For playing on highest graphics at 60 fps you don't need a beast of a PC, I have a 1650 Super and a Ryzen 5 1600 AF with 16 GB of RAM, but for more competitive play you probably won't run it at the highest settings, but you might want more FPS (though no need in an RTS (imo)). But Kaiser wants to be able to stream sometimes as well so he needs a better PC than what might the rest of us consider more than enough.

It depends on what resolution you want to play, at 1080p I am still able to run most AAA games on medium to ultra settings with my 6 year old 1070 with few exceptions of course.

I was able to play with it. But it was overheating, wasn't 100% smooth, and I couldn't stream at the same time. The comp was good but not for gaming I think. For 1400€ I really didn't want to keep it.
Also btw my old laptop couldn't run DE. I was actually playing on a high end notebook from my work.

I think it was 16 gb ram, 2 gb vram, latest i7 graphic card

16 GB ram is very decent but 2gb vram for the whole package to be 1400 euros? That is a lot.. a 1660ti would run AOE DE pretty smoothly in any setting and it is not that expensive, if you wish I can help you to pick PC parts, the prices have gone down considerably the last month!

yeah that sounds every overpriced, my laptop is about 1000USD and it can run DE at 60-80 FPS at max settings?

Don't buy a pre-built! Make your own PC. Much cheaper and can cater it to your own needs

2gb vram for 1,4k is ridiculous. Even with the current gpu price situation, also id recomend you to go for a 3rd gen ryzen cpu, they are more cost efficent than intel these days and even got better single core performance.

for 1400 euros you can buy a top of the range PC which can handle any game at good graphics and good fps. 2GB VRAM for 1400 euros is daylight robbery, you cant even run any modern AAA games with that.

You are saying it as if its an objective thing. You can build a pc without graphics card for 1400$. There is no comparable metric about at what price what graphic card you should have. Like I said he bought a store pc (apparently) which can have lot of things included like monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers etc. which alone could go in excess of 300$. Then you have cases which can also be ridiculously expensive, he said it was top of the line i7 which is at least 350$ or so. Whether it has wifi or not, bluetooth, also how much storage, ssd, intel optane? or the onboard ssds? What kind of software it ships with? All these things matter + there's company profit as well. Guarantee and stuff. Prices are still inflated for other stuff as well not just graphic cards. Also PC in europe are expensive compared to US.
