Cm4

[Ash!]

Anyone got CM4 yet. Anygood ? Cantr wait myself

 

[GDW]

I didnt think much of Cheese Maker 3 tbh

 

[~YuckFou~]

GDW, he meant Crusty Minge 4, d'oh.

 

[Xtro]

We've done this before. Cable Management 4 the new game for Network Monkeys! \o/

 

[~YuckFou~]

I'm so yesterday

 

[Ash!]

I did actually mean the new adventure game. Crystal Mazev.4 Hello ????

Fools. all Fools

 

[mank!]

Waiting for my mother to pick it up on the way home from work, rah. Apparently it runs like absolute shite but the enhancement pack is out soon is supposed to fix that.

 

[bigfoot]

just arrived here as i was walking back from the shops \o/

 

[GDW]

Manks mother?

 

[bigfoot]

no. been there. done that.

 

[mank!]

oooh! handbags!

is the CM4 patch going to be on the BWFTP at all bif?

 

[Ash!]

I had a look at the Eidos website and it can be downloaded from there if its not on BWFTP

 

[bigfoot]

It's not until tonight although it doesn't look like it will solve the speed problems people have been experiencing. I'll try to grab it when it is made available, although I'm not even sure I'm going to install the game until they fix the speed issue because I really can't be bothered with it if it performs like the demo did (on a p4-2gig with a gig of ram too).

 

[mank!]

it's a bit crap really, how they made CM4 perform so poorly after CM3, which ran fine with a few leagues on my old Celeron 366 is crazy really :/

I'll be getting my hands on a copy in an hour or two, but I probably won't play it. Plus I'm having a great game on 01/02 anyway

 

[Daffeh]

picked it up for my bro earlier and just installed and had a quick look around.....and its fecking shite tbh



why the fuck does it generate highlights for all games...makes it slow as shit

after looking on the forums it really wouldnt suprise me if they recalled it or something, the engine is THAT bad

I doubt it, maybe an update of some kind although I never really liked how long the game took when I played it years a go

 

[Daffeh]

why is it just about every game that comes out these days requires a MAJOR patch to fix them?

i realise that many bugs only pop up after release as u cant test every machine it runs on, but how often are we seeing 10meg, 50meg even 100meg patches for games that came out just days before sometimes before they're even released

if a patch could fix the game, who's to say it wouldnt require an entire engine rewrite meaning a huge download size.

why should a modemer be expected to spend hours or days downloading a patch for their brand new game just so they can play it?

i dont think SI have ever stuck to a release date for any version, and maybe its time they stop trying to add tons of new features at a time?

 

[Embattle]

Who knows, perhaps SI wouldn't of released today if they had their way...perhaps it was EIDOS and the continued delays that has forced them to release it.

tru' bro

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Patch is out now anyway. And it's only a measly 5.4mb you moaning basts.

 

[Daffeh]

but does it address the speed issue?

or just the few mini fixes they posted on the forum?

 

[Embattle]

Well don't give the link to those that have bought it you Teddington nobler

for ze patch, although it doesn't seem to have speeded things up much if at all. Wazza - still very disappointed with CM4, seems like my initial impressions before the first demo even hit were correct, just been further backed up by the poor performance.

 

[Daffeh]

thankies for the link

I got it this morning, installed it before work and found it did run like crap when goin thru the results and also is there a way to disable the automatic switch-to-flatview-ingame ?

 

[mank!]

I've been playing it for a couple of hours just now, and although it runs pretty sluggish it's not as bad as people make out. I have got a pretty good rig though...

I can't stand the interface though, they've changed it so drastically that it just doesn't even remind me of CM anymore.

As for SI, it has been said that this will be the last version of CM ever. It wouldn't surprise me, as they don't seem to care much about it anymore. Look how sloppy the release has been, delays delays and more delays, it finally arrives and it's full of bugs (I realise this is inveitable, but before I got the patch it crashed every three times I tried to create a game) runs sluggishly and overall isn't that impressive.

A shame, but we'll see. I didn't like CM3 to start off with either :/

I also can't find a bloody tactic that'll work, gah.

 

[S-Gray]

heh yeah its pretty hard as Everton, i mean about 6 of my "First Teamers" are already out for a couple of months which has pissed me off, but i heard it is a concern about the number of injuries sustained in a side in Cm4

 

[mank!]

The injuries are majorly fucked in CM4 for soem reason, it was even worse in the demos though.

 

[Ash!]

Just been having a go now. And on the whole its ok nothing more.

 

[S-Gray]

oh another thing... for some reason i cant play in Windowed mode, it gives me some shit about it not being supported and im like "wtf?"
