Basically whats the difference ?

[LordWallDeMart]

I'm planning to buy PCBS. I heard that PCBS 2 is going to Epic Games store.

1. Don't we have all the latest stuff here ( graphics cards, processor, ram, chips etc.. ) ?

2. How does PCBS 2 differ from this ?

No, we don't. We don't have RTX 3050, 3050 Ti, 3090 Ti, we don't have Intel 12th gen.

No. The developers have been very tight-lipped about what exactly will be in the future game of PCBS 2. They have not told us publicly at all what content will be in the new game. They have however told us that this game (PCBS 1) will never have any further content updates added to it.

That doesn't really change anything anyway. We don't need the latest parts to enjoy PCBS 1 anyway. The game as it is right now is already capable of providing well over multiple hundreds of hours of gameplay even if it's never updated again.

As other stated: Intel 12th Gen is missing. Some NVIDIA 3000 GPUs are missing. Upcoming Generations like RTX 4000 and RX 7000, Intel 13th Core, Ryzen 6000, etc. won't be in either.

They will use a newer Unity Engine with more possibilities. From what I have read "here and there" (Steam, reddit, etc.) the old Engine is limited, so they were not able to i.e. add 2 PSU* to a one case or you are not able to mix RAM modules* (different manufacturer, but same timings; Same manufacturer, but different Frequencies, etc.). They want to add some thing like that with a newer Unity Engine.

*These are only examples I came up or they generally stated as an explanation example.

The First thing could be changed by the community, like the HEM (Hardware Extension Mod). But that one (HEM Mod) hasn't been updated, because the developer of that mod joined Epic, if I heard it correctly.
