If you have a quad core with state of the art graphics card , dont bother. The game will run pretty good

If you're on a crappy computer , then expect it to lag. Its a direct console port , with some steam added stuff (i.e steam cloud , VAC and other stuff). Its not optimised for PC in any way , thats why it needs a graphics card with 256MB. If the lazy developers want to re-write the code , it would work with onboard video card and a single core processor , but they just could not be bothered of re-writing the code and optimising it for PC.

Thats why I salute Valve , Blizzard , etc. They truly make games FOR PC and not some mumbo jumpo console to PC port which sucks

Listen , you need to know how VAC works anyway

Those who edited their decks , good luck. VAC ban will get you , if you've modified any core files. Thats it , just be prepared in 2-3 weeks time you might get VAC'ed. Dont worry if you have TF2 , CSS or some other games which uses VAC , you'll be VACed for this game


This game uses VAC (which is dumb anyway , who wanna cheat on card game , pfft) , so meaning that if you cheat or modify any files to give you unfair advantages. Steam calls it unfair advantages , even if you dont cheat but modify some things which are not meant to be modified then you'll be VACed

So jsut be prepared guys , those who joined that group and modified their deck

I believe the .wad files that store the deck list arent core .EXE or .DLL files, so you wont get VAC'ed. But dont come crying to me when you got banned biggrin.gif But then edited decks shouldnt sync online anyway its pretty crap when edited stock deck did get thru.

Anyhow, the purpose of the deck editor is not to let player cheat. It was created simply just for the joy of deck editing, as stated on the mod site. They have big plans for it, like making a universal deck so every players can download the same mod and have fun in multiplayer.

I knew it may came to this so i guess this is what we can expect from the game mod potential. Since Wizard's dont like it, so we might just sit with MTGO if we really want all those deck editing action laugh.gif

Thats what they said for MW2 , and some console unlockers got them banned anyway , some even edited some other cfg related stuff. I am not sure about .wad , it could be core files as well.
