Haa thatās funny! I payed over 1000 $ for my desktop 
Itās a development I monitored since the game got bigger and bigger. I was thinking about why this game is so large for such a simple graphics design (2d style). So technically you āshouldā be able to play the game because I read that the beta testers used 500mb. [quote=āOzball, post:41, topic:25922ā]
This has been tested and none of the testers experienced this memory issue. We all had around 500MB usage (and still have that)

Except you canāt. But Iām no developer so Iām just saying things about things I donāt know anything about 
My gut is telling me itās a direct X / Unity problem.

So here is the website where you can look at the requirements for mobile phones: https://unity3d.com/unity/system-requirements
if you have android you need: Android: OS 4.1 or later; ARMv7 (Cortex) CPU with NEON support or Atom CPU; OpenGL ES 2.0 or later.
it doesnt say how much ram 
(also i was replying to the ārequire 1000$ comupterā meme)
i think i actually did buy a 1000$ computer 
and gow is working even on the mythic settings
but i was thinking if it requires 1000$ phone it would knock out too many users :s
Youāre absolutely right, Iām kinda new to this forum style. Lol should get it printed on a t-shirt but that wouldnāt be fair to the developers since they are trying to fix it 
Yes they would knock out too many players. One would believe gems of war knows what phones/desktops/laptops/consoles players use right.

Well Iām glad it works for you Iāve tried everything you did. Only difference is the graphics card and DirectX (Iām using Dx12).
I can run the game now after the fix, but only on low graphical settings when not using any launch options.
With -force-opengl and -force-glcore the game is playable on higher graphical settings, but there is a chance the game crashes mid-battle.
With any settings, does not work!
Well after much messing around, a lot of swearing, a well kicked cat that will probably never come back and a couple of breaks inbetween the crashfests for a peep at my sunbathing neighbour Iāve come up with a fix.
Uninstall G.O.W
Forget all about it
Play on Pokerstars for real gold

This sounds nice, Iāll try it!
UPDATE: Using ALT, on 1280 x 720, Fastest, Windowed mode, the game loads, the bar fill up, then it stopsā¦ Maybe on other graphics settings, it could work?

After driver update and patch I had a very short success to start the game with
-force-glcore in 960x720 with only 16bit colors, full screen optimization deactivate (press right mouse button on game exe in folder ā properties)
But when I looked after 2 minutes in options menu with alt+tab at task manager (game needs only ~600MB ram) game crashed again. After all, a short success is better than nothing with only 2GB main ram. Unfortunately I cannot reproduce success at the moment.

Yeah so like 10 members in my Guild canāt play the game anymore. So Iām speaking on their behave. I hope weāll get some updated news about bug fixes and/or crash issues from the devs tomorrow. If the devs feel they need more info or whatever Iāll be glad to help. Please let me know.

Hey All, We have just pushed out another new update which should reduce the memory usage.
We are still investigating the crash that some of you are experiencing, it looks like itās being caused by something deep in the Unity engine. For the rest of you, please try the new version and let us know if you are still experiencing any crashes or large memory usages.

Well the game is only pulling 550 MB of ram now, so thatās great. Except now it takes like 2 minutes to start, not a huge issue but mildly annoying.
