I've got $25 to spare, and I'm thinking of getting WarZ. However, I want to know how fast it's going to run on this piece of crap I own. The Processor is an Intel Celeron P4600 (2M Cache, 2.0 GHz), and the RAM is about 2 GB.

I used to like 2.
 
Just sayin, dont buy WarZ

The WarZ on steam is a false advertisement. More than half the things they list as features aren't in the game and it was supposed to be in Alpha. It's not even making it to beta before the release. It seems they want to get as much money as possible before people stop buying it.

Here is a quote directly from the article:

Sergey Titov: Let's be frank: when you read "up to 100 players" -- what does it mean to you personally? I mean, for me it doesn't mean that I will play with 99 other players. Really :) And yes game supports 100 players -- heck, it supports actually over 400 players per server as of today. Do we have servers launched with this number of slots? No we don't, because this is not what our players WANT.

GameSpy: Yes, frankly, it absolutely does mean that the game will support 100 players. Anything less is a false claim. You could just as easily claim your game will support up to a million players, and then say "Well, 50 is between one and a million." It would be absolutely fine for you to tune your game to what your players have told you that they want. What is not fine is for you to tell potential buyers that they will be able to do things in your game that they simply cannot do as it exists today. What you've done is the same as telling someone that the car you're selling can go 100mph, when in fact it can only go 50mph.

Sergey Titov: And we've corrected text on Steam. As I've said -- it was done less than 18 hours after we've started selling game. After that -- after text was changed -- over 7 hours passed.

GameSpy: Steam still says -- I'm looking at it right now -- "Up to 100 players per game server." That is a false claim.

Sergey Titov: Let me ask you -- what YOU think we should put there, since we do not know what number of slots will be on official servers tomorrow -- 20,30, 50, 70 or 100?

GameSpy: I think you should put the minimum you can deliver. If you deliver more, that's a bonus that no one can claim they were misled about. If you deliver less, you have failed to deliver on a promise.

This is just awful. He says they can do it but people hate it and don't understand that they are false advertising.

They also force you to sign a ToS that is illegal in some countries, saying you are not entitled to a refund for false advertising.

There is so much out there involving this company to be crooks and liars.
