[quote="Xorcist [USA]":55ecb]Just had this happen to me today.

I saw that too. And I thought Reed Richards was on our side!

I downloaded it this morning and got to play it during lunch. All I can say is .... "Holy moly! This game rocks!"


I have a PC that runs on Vista Ultimate. It has a Intel Core2 CPU (4300 @ 1.8 GHz), 2.0 gigs of RAM, and my video card is a NVidia GeForce 8800 GTS. I turned all of the settings up to High and I didn't have any lag issues at all. The game ran smooth as silk. I had the screen resolution set at 1600x1080. Sweet.

I can't wait for the full version to come out! I'm not sure if MP is going to be fun until they increase the number of slots on a server, but the SP will certainly be worth the price of admission.

Did anybody else use the grenade launcher? Pretty cool. Light years ahead of the launcher in Spearhead. My only complaint about the launcher, and maybe I just didn't figure out how to use it, was that once it upgraded me, it automatically loaded the grenade round and continued to load the rounds until I had used all 8. I didn't seem to have the option to load a grenade round and then go back to the rifle.

i really hope the arms do that when you die in the final game

Press your middle mouse button to change fire modes. beer:


I'm looking forward to playing MP. I can't remember the launchers in SH too much, because I stuck with AA (SH's MP just felt weird, with sliding models and screwy weapons).

Anti aliasing it seems is possible wit ati cards in airborne, just seems that the game doesn't like it,

Title screen wont show any planes, the briefing wont be displayed, and when you're on the plane all you get is a static image with anti aliasing applied, even though you cna hear the game playing underneath all this, was able to jump out of the plane and fire my gun a bit even though all i could see was this:

Has to be some kind of a workaround for it though.

This demo is pissing me off!
First it takes three attempts to dload it due to CRC errors.
Then it runs great till I actually point my gun at a wop and boom instant lag!

BTW dual core at 2.8 2 gig of dual channel ram and Vista Ultimate
I didn't think my x1950 pro would have had that many probs with this cry:

I even lowered the res and turned off some settings and it's still ass!

Sorry to hear that Scorp! Do you have the latest drivers, etc? What is your "Windows Experience Index"? My overall score a 4.2 because my RAM is not the fastest on the planet. But my graphics score is a 5.9.

Thats whats bugging me lol. My overall score is 4.7 and graphics get 5.9 and 5.8 for gaming oOo:
Gonna re-re-install the new drivers. Never had this trouble with Nvidia lol
It even sets all the settings maxed as default.

Don't think your card supports shader 3.0 which is needed for the game.

Crazy Canadian, As of yesterday, it was in Microsoft's hands and not an issue with EA.

Scorpion, Make sure you "clean" your old drivers out before installing new Nv drivers. get an old (free) copy of drivercleaner or better yet get a copy of driversweeper (all versions are free) and use that in safe mode.

remove video only drivers from control panel
boot into safe mode and use driver sweeper or drivercleaner
reboot back to normal windows and install drivers.

Another mod released to make the enemies much tougher

game is awesome!

I really hope that radar that shows enemy positions doesn't work in multiplayer, popping out and suprising someone would be almost impossible with it.
