Maybe i'll just not order from ebgames anymore. I must buy like 5 billion games from them a year... if they stopped getting my business, I think they'd go bankrupt. Yup.

Got it. Been too busy playing to take screenies.

I was able to run this game on 3 different comps. Best is AMD 3500+, 6800gt, 2gb RAM on high settings with very high framerate. Other is 9800 pro, AMD 3000+ and 1gb RAM with med settings and runs very well. 3rd comp is almost the same as first so it had same results.

This game runs amazingly well and is very polished.

So far I have spent half my playing time just talking to people and raising speechcraft. The way it works is more like a minigame.

You get a "wheel" with 4 options and people dislike 2 and like 2. On the wheel are 4 bars that vary in how impressive you try to make that response. So you have to figure out which the people like and dont like then press the lowest impressiveness on those so you dont lose much rep with them. When you try 1 option the wheel turns so you gotta try to make the dislikes low and the likes high as you have to try all 4 and dont wanna get stuck with the high impressiveness on a dislike, so you gotta time it well. Puzzle like indeed.

As your skill raises you gain the ability to rotate the wheel once. That is as far as I have gotten, so I will update more as my skill increases. P.S. horse riding pwns.
 
Did you get it to run on all 3 of the comps without a disc?
 
I'm able to play BF2 on med with ligtning on low (mostly for quicker loading times; no big performance difference) at 1024x768 (and by able I mean I can get gold medals with this setup :p). Any chance I will be able to run Oblivion on medium, with a few things lowered at 800x600?

Get on AIM btw...
 
I got the CE :D its a good gamr but the charakters dont look good imo
 
just got it (pc version non-ce) ...have to wait 8 hours before I can install it ;(
 
Install it at work ;)


God is a dentist. Today I had an appointment to have a root filling. It turned out the tooth was too broken to fix so I asked them to pull it out instead. Because of this new development a follow up appointment had to be made, their only free slot for a month was friday lunchtime. Just so happens friday is release day in the uk. Just so happens there's a GAME store a few doors away from the surgery. just so happens I may be a few minutes later getting back to work.
 
was in Game today in Dublin, behind the counter they had tonnes of copies stocked behind the glass case, i cheekily asked were they on sale now but the guy said ''no 1st thing in the morning'' , omfg i thought, out Thursday but alas he was a bit confused with his time of week, he thought today was Thursday...:p

hmm, it's an idea i spose

but as we're about to be made redundant i don't think it'll cut it, sadly.



Zeus - chill, my magic 8 ball says your game will be delivered 'possibly'.

grr..I just found out that the game shipped today (yes, a day late)..and it will be here tommorow. (im in the us btw). For the last 2 days school has gone REALLY slow..and now I know I have one more day of it too..grrr
 
HOLY SHIT MOTHER ****ING ASSHOLES!

The tracking webside says it was 'delivered' to the FRT Door.

It's not at my front door! I was here at the time it says it was delivered. ITS NOT HERE.

Where the **** could it be!?

As much as I hate to say it, it could have been delivered to the wrong location. Like stern said, sometimes they deliver it to the neighbors. One time when I ordered my new computer case it was at my neighbors house 2 houses down.
 
It was posted today, should arrive tomorrow.

I'm close to peeing with excitement :)
 
Well I walked down the entire street... No house I saw had it. ****! Even the house that normally accidentally gets some of my things, the one that I used to live in(the number is exactly identical except for the second one. So for example, say it was 5905 fake street... I lived in that house, and my current house is further up the street, 5805 fake street.

It wasn't there though.

So i'm trying to get ahold of UPS now... <sighs>

What a ****ing time. First the package is LEFT BEHIND in some shipping facility, wasting my next day air money that I paid extra for... now this crap.

This is why I hate UPS. why couldn't they send with FEDEX like ebgames usually does? They have never dissapointed me like this.

I'm pissed off. I dont care about the lost money now, I care about just getting the game.


EDIT: I just got the package... exactly 4 hours, on the dot after the tracking thing said it was delivered. How weird is that? UPS rang the doorbell, package was at the door, guy was in the truck racing off.
 
Just bought the collectors edition today. Went to my closes EB at 3:00pm and they only had two copies left. Lucky me!

I couldn't play though until about 12:00am though and my play time was then cut short by a crash to desktop. Amazing game so far, I am out of the starting area. Though I must now go to bed. :(
 
woohoo - it just fell through the post.

I'm going to look at the manual and smell the new game goodness for 30 mins before sticking the disk in :)
 
Been playing the game. I enjoy it, ALOT! And I have barely done anything yet.

You should install it right now, it will take very long to install, that you will have much give you time to do all that.

:LOL: My bad for assuming it was the PC version.

And yeah Raziaar, mine took a while too. I think it took 20 minutes for me. I was able to skim through the manual, look at the box, eat some soup, went ouside, came back, watched Fight Club, went back to my room and STILL had to wait 5 minutes.
 
Blimey this game is good :) I've only wondered about and killed a few rats/zombies so far and am completely engrossed. It looks fantastic too \o/
