Well postie just came by, no parcel

Does anyone know whether the 3-5 days place sends their games 1st/2nd class (ie normal postie post) or do they send it using standard parcels or something similar? (ie postie that usually comes an hr later than regular postie if you have 'special' post.)

I definitely won't be getting any games from that place again, for me, the whole idea of pre-ordering is the result of 'OMG I CANT WAIT TO GET THAT GAME!!!', not 'ILL LET SOME COMPANY HAVE MY MONEY IN ADVANCE AND GET THE GAME MUCH LATER THAN EVERYONE ELSE!!!'

*just looked it up, 3-5 days is standard parcels, there's still hope i'll get it today!*

I received my copy from the 3-5 day place about an hour ago (I get it items delivered to my work place), so there is still hope for you yet.

that place sends it recorded delivery.

 

[Datamonkey]

you wha? 3-5 days send it recorded when its free delivery and a lot cheaper than most others??

I havent had anything recorded del from them before.

 

[Sweetloaf]

It should be recorded for all purchases above £25 iirc

often second class otherwise!

3-5 day place, posted 22nd. Hasn't arrived, hoping that the postie will come later. Better do some coursework I guess!

I've read mixed opinions on HDR, but to me that looks much better with HDR enabled.
How much of a performance hit do you get mate?

800X600 very playable. Nice and smooth

1280x1024 with HDR getting about 7 fps on my 6600GT so very unplayable!

Wooot mine's arrived... now I just have to wait several hours before I get home and can install it.

You lot are dedicated with your preorders an all, didnt know RPG's were sell out titles

Will be my 1st foray into RPG (baring SWG trial) but if I dont like it Im sure the wife will. I foresee a domestic on my horizon

[dunker]

[Dolmio Chips]

Mine just arrived recorded delivery this morning. Whats better, my shiny new Dell 2405 arrived 2 days ago. Got it running at 1900x1200 on full settings, it is totally awesome. Only problem is that I see me social life being extinct for the next 6 months!!

 

[Datamonkey]

It's just down to what you deem most important. I for one find jaggies extremely annoying. To my eyes the game looks better with AA on and HDR disabled. Sure HDR looks better but unless I can use it along with AA then I won't be turning it on.

 

[pcfan]

What is all this talk about HDR? Can someone explain please? Thanks
