Will there be a 64 bit version?

from Stardock Forums

I didn't see anything when I searched but I can't imagine that this hasn't been asked already.  But will there be a 64 bit version?

You mean like 64 bit OS?  I'm playing the beta on Vista 64 so the magic 8ball says your chances are good :)

sorry to be a party-pooper, but i think it's rather unlikely to get an x64 compile.

 

see, both DG and SupCom use the Moho Engine; something that runs heavily off Lua scripting. making an x64 version will have very very little effect on performance unless GPG decides to write their own x64 Lua interpreter (or one already exists).

Well that sucks.  The big problem the fact that SupCom could really make use of 4gb of ram on the big maps.  That would tell me that this game is going to run into the same limitations.

The arenas in Demigod are far smaller than the maps of Supreme Commander. It's a very different game.

Small battles are not nearly as exciting as having thousands of units battling it out.

Then you're barking up the wrong tree.  This game isn't about thousands of units battling it out.
