I wonder what will the system requirements for stranded 3 will be.I know it will be for unity but, just wondering.
Cause for the moment iv'e got a s*it computer.
You are not the first one to ask and sadly not the last. As it's still too early in the development, it cannot be answered. DC is working on the game in his free time, he needs our patience. When the time comes, he will tell us the details. But until then, we shouldn't bother him with pointless questions and let him make a great game to look forward to.
why is it that people do keep believing that DC as single developer will make a game that has the graphical requirements of a modern AAA game developed by huge companies but not have the confidence in him to mind the fact that some people might not have high-end rigs by himself?

Because he's awesome. I'm sure that S3 will look great and will be possible to be compared to mentioned games.
my previous statement was of a "if A → then also B" nature.
so either he can make a AAA game but then he'll also watch to keep the system requirements low or he will only deliver an A game where he doesnt even need to watch out for that. or maybe something in between like a AA game and he'll watch it a little.
either way, there's nothing for you to worry about.
There are enough indie games which run absolutely pooly on even the best computers, just because they developers didn't optimise.
But yeah, it's not possible to estimate the system requirements of Stranded III. Can you play Stranded II? If so, you will maybe be able to play Stranded III.
A lot of players were unable to play the new cs2d version when it came out. Of course not players from the industrial countries - but you also have to think of the players from other countries. There are countries where pcs with more than 256 MB VRAM are too expensive to buy for the common folk. Keep that in mind Hurri04
Other than that: Yeah, DCs game will most likely NOT have requirements as high as a triple-A game.

New engine - new requirements, new times - new systems, new game - omfg.
I dont think the game will be so heavy. Maybe the specs you need is a core 2 duo or pentium d, 1 gig ram and a graphics card with minimum 256mb ram (512 reccomended)
I can't play Stranded II with normal settings because I have low processor with 1.00 GHz. I need to make waters reflection, grass and other options to be the lowest settings to make it smooth. I thought with high graphics memory (according to Windows rating in my laptop) even you have low processor, I can play Stranded II with smooth gameplay in medium-high settings. I think I can't play this beautiful Stranded III, even with low settings.
