Arma 3

Do I need a decent computer to play this game?
So I was looking at this game and it seems abolutely awesome. However the graphics look very good. Would I need a very high-preformance computer to run this game properly or is a bad one ok. To give you an example of how good my computer is without all the details is that, a year ago I bought assassins creed 3 via steam and it crashed when I got to the loading screen of the first mission. Feel free to ask me what my system info is and tell me what to tell you in case you need more info. The game does look great but I don't want to buy it and have it not work. Feel free to add me or just comment! THANK YOU!

You probally won't be able to run Arma 3 with a bad or out-dated PC, though i am 85% sure that if you cant run AC3 you cant run A3. But no one would know unless you post your specs.

You need to post the following:
OS
Graphics Cards
Proccessor
RAM

As for how to find these things type dxdiag into your run/search field and run the .exe this should give you the information you need to post on here.
