steam -> delete local content -> redownload

tbh.

 

[Ctuchik]

tried it twice now

and so many ppl have the same problem even steam cant download at decent speeds anymore

getting 200kbps when i normally get 3+ meg

 

[Ctuchik]

well i got it to work. i had to put every single app that the game used on compatibility mode XP sp3, start the game in windowed mode and THEN switch over to fullscreen... >.<

I feel your pain. Have some games like that. In fact my current fave game (don't laugh) Civ IV can actually BSOD my vista :/

 

[Ctuchik]

vista can BSOD?!?!?


wtf?

 

[TdC]

hellooooo sarcasm. my awesome 64bit Vista, fully patched and up to date really doesn't like me playing games. Civ IV brings it to it's knees with consummate ease, and it just locked up fully while playing some CS:S :/

 

[TdC]

and again perhaps it's time to reinstall :/

"Thundergay! Thundergay! THUNDERGAY HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHH....you big silly! You cant wear that with those shoes!"

On a serious note, is section 8 any cop? Looks rather like TF2 crossed with planetside

never played tf2 so cant make a comparison between them. but its kinda ok.

single player story is utter shit tho, u go through that in about 4 hours.

multiplayer is decent i guess. bunnyhopping galore tho as everyone got jetpacks that u can jump around with...

the tanks 1 shot you, the BFR wannabies melee attacks 1 shot you, the guns in general have a godaweful range unless your a sniper or bazooka spammer so trying any form of ranged combat is pointless. if your not within 15 yards you wont do any damage even if you do hit.

with that said, it can be a ok game but for the love of god dont buy it as a replacement for any other game...
