Well i tell you all something , someone may already said that,

But anyways.

EA Games makes the games high graphicly so they buy it from EA Company itself, not from a store, or from internet, or CRACKED/RELOADED

Actually i heard that some peoples can play RA 3 without buying ULTRA-NEW graphic/monitor card!

it is maybe true, maybe not, iam not sure :D

But anyways iam trying to know how to play RA 3 at ultra-high settings without buying new graphic card ( CUZ MY FATHER WILL KILL ME IF I TOLD HIM TO BUY NEW ONE, CUZ I JUST BOUGHT 1 FROM 1 WEEK AGO :S )

Well so my greetings, X-Tiger123 ;)

Umm... Since it looks like you're new here please don't go posting in old threads, and to answer your question; I don't think its possible to play RA 3 at a higher setting than you already are if you don't get new hardware.

i just bought red alert 3 today- and im very dissapointed-the graphics are poor, Gameplay is sluggish and the overall feel is not good. i m a keen c & c player and have enjoyed the series so it came as a major dissapointment to me. Coming back to the graphics- i run it at the highest possible graphics option {Ultra High} and its still poor. If your thinking of buying this game then i would say buy something else with your money. Im gonna take it back and i never take games back-i usually give them a chance but after what ive seen today its gotta go back. E A have really let themselves down with this one.

[QUOTE="digitalman42"]I am so confused. The graphics are WORSE than C&C3 yet it runs much SLOWER on my PC. It's even made by the same company, what gives?? the water looks better, everything else looks worse. And it runs 10x slower, I could max out C&C 3 with my duo 2, 3 gigs, x1950 video card, this game I have to run on MED to get a DECENT frame rate, even on high it crawls and looks much worse than C&C 3.Johnny_Rock

Your video card is horrible. Don't blame the game on sub-par PC specs. I have it running on max and it looks great!

LOOKS GREAT?!!! i also have it running on max and it looks poo. How can anyone say the graphics are good on this game?! its a BIG let down.

1. The graphics are better than C&C 3. Not just the water.

2. The game runs just about the same. It's not our fault your computer sucks. Oh, and Medium settings? No wonder it looks not-so-impressive. Try getting a decent video card, then you can come back and talk.

I haven't followed the C&C games in the least but the game looks fine. It's not a technical feat but an art design. I hate cell shaded/comic book style graphics but I like TF2.

You're actually listening to this guy?

Watch some of my YouTube videos HERE and HERE to get an idea of how "bad" the game runs. And these were beta videos for crying out loud! And the thread-starter says the graphics are bad? :roll: The visuals - even in the beta - are far ahead of most modern-day RTS's, especially the water, which has not yet been matched by any other strategy games up to this point.

Just for further information, here are my rig's specs (this was also at the time of the beta):

AMD 64-bit 4800+ (2.5ghz)
2 GB RAM
8800 GTX

The game simply runs and looks great. In fact, it's one of the best performing RTS's out there. The amount of stupidity in this thread is just breath-taking. It's a great game overall. Maybe some of you should get decent gaming PC's before you act like you know what you're talking about.
