    On a 2200XP w/ GF3 it takes 3 minutes to load.

    Ever here the story about the boy who cried "Warez Monkey"?

    He got his hand stuck in a dyke and his tongue turned black and fell out or something. I dunno, I'm a bit hungover.

    on my system i get 5fps yay :)

    damn thing wont work on the more powerful system ive got due to s3's mucho crappy drivers.

    real real creepy game those zombies look amazing and the sounds are just great. this will be one hell (excuse the pun) of a game.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,808 ✭✭✭Dooom


    is it a playable version? or just some rolling demo? what guns what does it look like what what what......

    1.1ghz, 256 ram gforce 3ti500 128mb - suggestions?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,346 ✭✭✭✭KdjaCL

    Ok, I spent an hour downloading it.
    The graphics are brilliant, it's like one of those computer generated movies.
    Unplayable on the system I am using though
    5 fps when im standing still.
    0-1 fps when monsters show up.
    PIII 733mhz 384mb Ram Geforce2 mx.

    A friend tried it with an AMD ATHLON XP 2000+ and a geforce4 ti4200 o/c to 4600 and got 40-60 fps.

    Another one got around 30 fps standing still and 15 fps when monsters showed up with a P4 1.8 ghz geforce 3.

    I will get a new machine next week so I will try it then.
    So far I can tell ya that it's real scary......
    Doubt that it'll be much of a multiplayer game, even if they or someone else decides to FIX a multiplayer code decent enough.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,808 ✭✭✭Dooom


    where'd you all get it from? i tried megagames but edonkey wont work and i cant find it :_( can someone host it or put it on kazaa or imesh or summat so i can dl it? pretty please....?

    I can arrange it so you don't see any of my posts in Games at all if you'd like...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,808 ✭✭✭Dooom


    ....... a few hours are up amp, you can say what you rolleyes:

    by the way, i was joking......


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,446 ✭✭✭✭amp


    As was I. Now shut up and lets all get back on topic.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,894 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I'll have to play it to believe if it's any good. Quake 2 was the best game ever at one stage on the lords of recieving cheques for good reviews, PCGamer. Prae you better be reading this get ur ass downloading it now you broadband sonofabitch!


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,304 ✭✭✭✭koneko


    Aragorn, you're joking right? The Wildcat cards are workstation cards. They're pretty much crap at running games. Even the newer cards aren't too good at it. There is no way he'd get the game running smooth with a fvcking workstation card.

    I've benched them (for kicks) and they all did woefully.

    BTW, 1428 MB RAM? Either that's a typo, or you haven't got a clue :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,346 ✭✭✭✭KdjaCL


    After some serious tweaking (the CFGs are mohaa like )
    I now get 30 fps (20 when the shooting starts)
    Sent a mate with ti 4600 my CFGS he getting 70 to 90 FPS these are seriously tweaked cfgs.

    Game is without a doubt thee best looking game ever.
    Also scary as hell (you know its coming yet you still walk around that dark corner).

    Tho here is a weird thing.
    I dont think this was leaked in anyway ,its simply a test.
    There is a map editor in the package and a lot of source ,who releases a demo for e3 with a map editor ???

    And if you read tru the CFGs you will figure out how to use this editor and 1st to crack a map out wins a prizes methinks.

    multiplayer also works! tis a bastard to get working and it involves editing the maps supplied to add spawn points. the pistol is the only gun that works, others cause the game to crash.

    a rumor going around is that ATI leaked it and that id are seriously fusking pissed off over it.

    as for getting the multiplayer working a cant find the link anymore :( and i cant test it because i erased it, twas too big and about as useful as a chocolate fireguard.
