Just found a better way to dump you right to the main menu

go to
and either delete all the *.sfd files or do what I did, create a backup folder in the video folder and dump all the *.sfd files there. Now when you launch your shortcut (without the above switches) it will go right info the main menu.

To quickly exit, pull down the console (~) and type quit

Damn i hate all the intro and exit ads. UT3 demo was stupid with how many it had, at least they were skippable.

we have a fix for that as well :D

However there is one .sfd file that is the background of the main menu, which you don't need to remove if you don't want to.

The editors pretty fun been making tornados and giving them super power, sucks in physics objects from pretty much the entire level and sends them flying. :D

Seen some odd glitches in game though, sometimes if you throw a barrel it goes straight through trees :eek:

If you run the benchmark demo, you will see in the CPU demo, at the end, he walks right through the blown up pickup truck.

Now wouldn't this make a great engine for Airborne? Hell you para-drop in at the bigging LOL.

Airborne had a good engine, ea just butchered it :(

I really dunno if this engine would be good for a moh game, it could be sort of tailored to make good looking foliage laden levels and not necessarily that good at indoor levels. In the beta of crysis some of the indoor areas look like shit. Could picture ea hyping it up though if they ever did use this engine for a moh game, then you buy it and realise all the mp components have been stripped out..again.

Can't say im too happy with the performance of this game either, for a game thats meant to use multi core and multi gpu's ive not seen too many people with sli say its running well. And that cervat guy has stated multiple times its been built to take advantage of dual\quad and multi gfx card setps.

Id swear i just heard that the demo, for some reason, wasnt actually using dual cores. Ran pretty well on my:

E6600
2gigs DDr2 800
8800 gts 320 (bfg overclocked)

Didnt have every thing maxed out which i will try later on just set it to what i knew would run and look pretty.

I can get this POS running.

Reinstalled a couple times. Drivers updated. Game doesn't respond right at bootup. All i see is "pre release demo" text in upper right on a back screen. The game hangs there. I moved those sys files like RD said. I got to the main menu once and it stopped responding there. Couldn't click anything. As you can tell, so far i'm not impressed.

Are you using the newly released nvidia driver? It actually breaks the 64 bit version of the game...and yet it was released spefically for the demo. :rolleyes:

Super.

Maybe its just me but is anyone else playing this demo feeling like its just farcry with a gimmicky suit and better graphics? In farcry you started off facing mercenaries and ended up fighting mutants, in this you start fighting korean soldiers and end up fighting aliens.

Will probably still buy it, but the more i mess around in the demo the more the deja vu feeling hits.

ah that was it. rolled back the drivers and it works now. thanks gerv.

This game was chugging like fuck on my dads new computer. While it looked good it played very laggy with everything on high. Than it locked up twice. The game was using over a gig of memory on his computer.

Is this game really unstable? My first play through was extremely laggy, while the cinematic scenes were fine. Now on subsequent play throughs, the opposite occurs. And if i turn down my settings to medium, the graphics get really fucked up.
