What the hell are you waiting for? GO BUY IT!

 

[Diesel_Power]

An offer I can't refuse. I'll DL this tommorow. I heard the expansion wasn't as good though.

 

[Born]

wOOt!

 

[Animontius]

Wow. And I was just trying to decide if I really wanted to buy this game a day or two ago, and decided against it. But that's a price to change minds friend. I'm getting it.

 

[ríomhaire]

Everyone who hasn't, buy this game. That is cheap, on the other hand I got it for only ?9 anyway so I'm not really bothered.

 

[TCfromBN]

If you don't have this game already, this is probably one of the best ways to spend 5.

 

[Yorick]

*purchases*

 

[JFry]

Sounds like a great deal but I'm pretty sure my 9800 pro wouldn't be able to run it.

 

[CyberPitz]

Yup, getting it this weekend.

 

[cool_myll]

If you don't have this game already, this is probably one of the best ways to spend 5.

Or 7 dollars. If you are from europe....

 

[kacation_man]

i dont have a graphics card that will run it right now.. but im buying it cuz i will sooner or later

 

[Alig]

is it just me or is the steam server not responding?

?3.49 for STALKER...not to be sniffed at. Defo want this, but steam is being a mofo

 

[DEATHMASTER]

**** yes

 

[Asuka]

If you dont have this ****ING BUY it!

 

[Kula Meenur]

Better than nothing i guess. Still injectin' money into the economy.




Big wheel keep on turnin.

 

[kacation_man]

just got it cant wait to give it a try.. now i just have to go buy a new graphics card.

 

[G(ordon)-man]

What the hell? This is GREAT!

 

[DEATHMASTER]

Better than nothing i guess. Still injectin' money into the economy.




Big wheel keep on turnin.

Whoooa slow down there tiger, any more excitement and you'll burst into flames!

I anticipated this as soon as I got Clear Sky. I am a clairvoyant.

 

[Dr.Freeman]

I'm now downloading this awesome game.

 

[DEATHMASTER]

you are now awesome.

 

[mechanicallizard]

MY COMPUTER WONT RUN THIS GAME


why do you torture me god? WHY

 

[Dr.Freeman]

you are now awesome.

Yes i know. :cheese:

 

[Marler]

I just bought GTA so I'll wait before getting this despite the offer!

 

[BoroVC]

I always hear people saying you need a powerful rig to run this game. Is it true? If I can run Fallout 3 on medium settings, will this game be fine for me?

 

[perrkele]

I played through the game with amd xp 2400, 1Gb of memory and a 6800GT. I installed that floating32whatever mod and was able to use dynamic lighting and rather high settings. Fps was 20+ all the time, most of the time I couldn't notice any slowdown. I'd say you want to use dynamic lighting too, it's such an important aspect of creating the atmosphere in this game. I luuuuved those thunderstorms.

 

[BoroVC]

Sounds like I should be fine then, thanks.
So how is the game anyway? Is it fairly free roaming? Are the missions varied and interesting?
I saw some footage where you run around with these army guys, does that kind of thing happen much or are you usually alone. I prefer to play as lone character and not have to worry about team mates.

 

[605Scorpion]

This game restored my faith in PC gaming.

 

[Fiberawptic]

Amazing game. But is not without flaws, mainly gameplay annoyances...

 

[chestburster]

cannot buy from germany?

 

[bigdeezy23]

What the eff? I played for about 8 minutes, saved my game, then wanted to up my graphic settings, which prompts for a restart. I restart the game, and my saved game isn't there. Also, both my keyboard controls AND new graphics settings didn't hold -- it just seemed to disregard anything that I saved. Maybe I have a read-only settings file or something?

 

[DEATHMASTER]

If it didn't before, it might've been a patch that was updated. The newer patches delete old game saves.

 

[Sledgehammer]

It's not without it's flaws, but it's quite good.

I might actually get this, since the one I bought on cd apparently doesn't let me play online.

 

[Barnz]

This game raped my eyes. Is there a way to turn off "screen moving/shaking" when walking or running?

 

[Kula Meenur]

Whoooa slow down there tiger, any more excitement and you'll burst into flames!

I anticipated this as soon as I got Clear Sky. I am a clairvoyant.

If you're really wanna experience the full game, i suggest you download the Oblivion Lost 2.2 mod. How the game was meant to be.

 

[Dr.Freeman]

This game is excellent!!!

 

[G-Dub]

Well I couldn't argue since everyone here was saying it was well worth getting.

Plus at ?3.49 I'd be stupid not to!

Downloading now, woo!

 

[ríomhaire]

This game only has one flaw: It's not finished.

And not enough mutants.

 

[taviow]

Those would be two flaws.

 

[ríomhaire]

Er...there aren't enough mutants because the game isn't finished
>_>
<_<

 

[taviow]

Well, I agree about that, and there are even less in Clear Sky.

>.>
<.<

But I like it more than SHOC.

And I'm happy because the person who I love the most has bought the game for me
