Steam account and internet connection to install the game. No internet connection required to play the game.
Recommendation from a user [1.069] concerning choice of PC components: Space Engineers is very CPU heavy. A quadcore with a high frequency is currently performing better than a hexacore with a lower CPU frequency.
In the users' case: 1) Old system: i7-2700 @ 3.5 GHz GTX 580 8GB RAM SSD Win7 Home Premium
2) New system: i7-5820 @ 3.3 GHz GTX 980 32GB RAM SSD Win7 Professional
The FPS and UPS are slightly better with the old system ! The only "noticeable" advantage of the GTX 980 over the GTX 580 is the render capacity. At 6.5 million triangles the GTX 580 can't update all objects in a frame anymore frequently showing the interior of objects whereas the GTX 980 still manages to display all triangles in a frame.
