**The one and only Official BioShock Thread**- now with added **SPOILERS**

[mrk]

Cliffs:

1.) We found a way to get a free 12 month subscription to Fileplanet.
2.) We immediately start downloading the Bioshock demo, but its encrypted and won't open until Aug 20th 7pm EST.
3.) Someone finds out how to trick the download manager (Fileplanet software to download stuff) to download the decrypted version of the Bioshock demo.
4.) This gets leaked on to other forums.
5.) Fileplanet found out about this, and canceled all the decrypted downloads, and even banned some accounts.
6.) Torrent is made, only 1 seeder so far.
7.) Torrent jumps from 34 to 1400 peers in 5min.
8.) ...
9.) Profit

Doesn't look like the game supports FSAA, guy on another forum posted some pics with aa forced on in the ati control panel: (x1800)

How big is this demo?

1.8Gb

No AA? Again? Sigh....

So, what are the odds that there is no AA with DX9, but it works in DX10?

That's possible actually, interview with Tim Sweeney from Epic Games, he said that AA will only work in Dx10 on UT3 and BioShock uses the same engine, but a bit modified.

This game doesn't AA??! It bloody well better have .

 

[Robert]

I think I've had the game spoilt for me :/

Was reading the demo thread and some guy posted something (his name was vendetta).

AMAZON

Hey guys, over the weekend I preordered this from Amazon and received an email saying delivery date would be from the 31st of august through to Sept 6th. I gave them a call and they said that everyone is being sent the same date and not to worry, it SHOULD still be sent on time.

I just wanted to see if anyone else had the same date or am i being screwed with a caveat?

So does the leaked Bioshock demo from the torrent actually work or is it still encrypted?

The torrent says it's unencrypted, so hopefully it is.
