Please can you let me know if there is going to be support for this commonly used graphics chip. I have an i5 sony viao that is running it. I am very excited at some figher mage thief action! :D

It claims DirectX 10.1, Shader 4.1, so it "should" work.

Walking around pc world today around a third of all the new laptops are running this graphics chip. I am sure it would be worth testing seeing as though the mac release will need the same test.

Here's a relatively early beta build tech demo.
Try it out, see how it works.

Note the tech demo above has no gameplay, it's just a hardware compatibility test.

Yes, it works perfectly on my viao with intel hd 3000 graphics.

It also works on my old celeron 540 1.83ghz laptop with the intel 965 express graphics chipset with everything on low. Hopefully this means I can play at work..... :D

Thanks folks.

Thanks! That's good to know. Note that we have implemented some optimizations to the game engine since releasing the tech demo so if you get a decent fps in the tech demo then you should be home free.
