Re: [INFO]Star Wars™: Squadrons- PC System Requirements

I have an RTX 2060 and an i7 8th Gen so I am not too worried about the computer specs for Star Wars Squadrons.

    I'm hoping for the sake of my friend, this is available on PS5 upon release. I'm unsure if I'd like the game, but my friend might, so I'd get it just for him most likely.

    Also, will this be compatible to Windows 7 (64-Bit), or if not, will it be able to work in any way on a Linux.


    Any idea on the Release Date, I can't find it at the minute. My connection is awful, so no response from Origin Client at the minute. Oh, and Google isn't working for me right now either. Hence, the stupid about when the release date is. Note: Please provide UK Release Date for PlayStation and PC.

    Looks like my specs will be more than enough to play this. Good to know.

    How to do.
    Squadrons on Windows 7.
    Download ReShade: https://reshade.me/
    Run it and choose Star Wars Squadrons from the list of games it shows you.
    It will ask you what post processing effects you want. I just chose the default settings. Normaly the center one. Direct 10/11/12 an click apply on the next screen.
    Once done, run the game.
    If you want to get rid of the ReShade bar at the top, hit the “HOME” key and click “Skip Tutorial.” Then hit the “ESC” key and it should fade from the screen.

    Just bought it but it won't even let me download it on Origin, saying I have to upgrade.

    So I can't reach the point to use ReShade as I planned

    What now?

    I bought an Origin key (should probably have gone for Steam lol)

    Now it wouldn't let me download it so I downloaded it on my laptop which fortunately runs Win10 and moved all the files/reg per USB.

    I can launch it now per .exe but again Origin steps in and says I need to download an urgent Update (???) to launch it.

    However of course, Origin won't download that "Update with the same error message (not using Win10 blabla)

    But what kinda Update is it talking about haha?, since there is no Update so there can't be anything missing really :o

    @chrp90 EDIT nervermind lol

    I deleted some Origin Cache
    relogged into Origin, pressed some buttons

    and now

    It works haha

    that weird Update available disappeared after I launched one of the .exe and now it works even launching through Origin!

    (I did the Reshade fix already earlier)


    Excuse me now, I need to shoot some starships :P
