Not having much luck with it myself cant get dx10 mode to work on my HD2900XT (get texture/effect corruption) with both Cat 7.7 and 7.8.

DX9 mode works fine though.

Yea that's in the readme, it's a shame because I wanted DX10 mode. Ahh well I'll just play in DX9 till ATi sort it.

Perhaps this is why its getting raving reviews, it plays nice cos theres no aa and if they add it in later and performance is crap with it with the latest hardware then oh boy.
Can't see the enabling of say 2x/4xAA taking a huge performance hit, but a noticeable one on the lower end cards. :p
 
You click a link it takes u to rapidshare site, click on free at bottom on right side of list. It takes u to waiting area, a timer will show then after a min or two a box appears where you enter a code shown (preventing bots from gettin links i think its for) then u enter code, and download.

So whats performance like?

Apparently in DX9 the 2900's are actually performing above GTS? So maxed out is it running smooth, on 2900 and 8800 series?

It's maxed out running smooth on my X1950 pro so I should bloody hope it is working maxed out on the 2900/8800 :eek:

Could be where ** at has rapidshare site blocked?

Its an IT company and we haven't got anything blocked from us. :)

Edit: However, I've just tried to go on RapidShare and it doesn't seem to want to load at all.. Weird! :confused:

1440x900 with everything on max and Force Global Lighting on.

Same res here and i've got an x1800xt and i played through the whole demo on high settings i diddnt feel a single slow down. Quite impressed :eek:



Just an idea what to expect with a minamum of an x1800xt. It did go lower than this but without checking the fps it feels as smooth as a babies bum :)

Just remember thats all on high details.

oh thats fantastic news, hopefully my X1950XT will slay it then, i was getting worried i was going to have to get an 8800GTS to appreciate this

It'll be absolutely fine, I've just played it through and it never once felt choppy, FRAPS said framerate dipped to the very high 20s at some points although if I couldn't see the counter I'd said it was still going at at least 35 etc, it never felt sluggish, actually wondering if FRAPS is working correctly lol

I much prefer how the inventory, weapons and map etc feel with the keyboard and mouse.

Had a lot of fun hacking all the turrets and bots :D Taken loads of screenshots, and a video where I got a security bot stuck with me in the room at the end :p
