im back into bf2 after a couple of months of haitus (got bored). interest has grown again and I hate bf2142.

[Madaz]

plus 40mins only of Counter Strike: Source (hate it, what a terrible game full of free hacks),

lol i bet most of them wernt hacking if you played me and pauly you would call me a hack within 5 mins some nights

so no more CSS pauly or you will just play a bit of both

[Pauly33GTS-t]

[Rolls]

My mate gets called a hacker and even gets banned occasionally because hes so good, get like 30:2 on pub servers.

[Madaz]

Well i have

STALKER it came into work on monday, and like i said it will be average and thats what i think of it. Like i said it suffers from being in development for too long.

Sure it is fun and know doubt i'll complete it, it just isn't what it could or was going to be if it was released on time.

It is out today retail so pick it up if you've been hanging for it cos you will certainly enjoy it. And there is a CE and standard edition so remember that if you want the fancy one.

My old 80gig hdd just gave up the ghost a few weeks ago so i purchased a 73 gig 10,000 rpm sata drive. nice and fast and future proof. I'll just use my new 250 gig drive for movies, torrents, mp3's etc.

yer i dont think that much of it. To some it might be just another FPS. My pc runs it sweet, UNDER XP ONLY. Good thing ive kept xp and vista dual boot still. Dont get me wrong it works and installs in vista, but theres heaps of vid problems ive had in game.

My pc specs- x2 3800+((2.4ghz), 2gigram, 7900gt, a8n32, 74g raptor etc etc...this runs it up all max settings fine with no lag. But i have heard others with 8800's have to turn down some lighting effects, so who knows...

If your not a hard core FPS player, id say dont bother.

Personally I like the idea however the combat sucks balls, the weapons are inaccurate unless up close and don't pack much punch. It generally feels very clumsy, I shot a guy in the head with a shotgun and he didn't die.

Wtf? just seems very sloppy, Id like to be able to go prone and get a headshot with the ak from 50m however you can barely do that from 10m away.

[MADGT4]

You want hax?

And dont gimme shit i was having a bad night!

[Pauly33GTS-t]

how comfortably can I run stalker kralster, I have Core 2 Duo E6600, 750gb in 3 sata2 250gb hdds (no raid, f**k raid lol), 2 gigs of Kingston DDR2 800, nVidia 7950GX2 1gb DDR3 (512x2 shared). is this a stupid question, In stalker videos they talk of how the game will be independant of hardware spec and will only be limited to whatever the hardware can max out on?

[Madaz]

MadGT4 its possible he wasnt hacking cant say cause wasnt there but his ping would of helped him get lag dodge

[kralster]

Pauly your pc should run it very sweetly, in fact i'd love to see it run on your pc.

I'm running it on a athlon 64 3200+, 1 gig or ram, geforce6600GT, and i'm running it at 1377x768, on medium setttings quite nicely.

So you should have no problem.

[Pauly33GTS-t]

cool, i'll get it tonight if im not dead by 5pm and then maybe schtick up some screenies.

[MADGT4]

Would love to see some screenies too!

Im currently running Stalker on a AMD 4000+, 2GB RAM, 512mb 7900GT @ 1680x1050 with max everything and i can really see that if i had a higher spec PC then it would look so much more crispy.

It doesn't jerk or lag but it could run alot smoother thats for sure!

EDIT: He was hacking, he openly admitted too it, from what i could tell he was coding, walling and aim bot

ok, this has been really pissing me off, i have had to reformat (4th time in 3 weeks) :D

i have been trying to run a few videos and my media player won't locate the codec needed to run .WMV files:( it locates it and will only play the audio off of it. Is there anyway to install codecs manually and where can i find them? i have googled it and haven't come up with much.

lol sorry for the nooby question, but this is pissing me off and i can't figure it out

PS I F*&^ING HATE WINDOWS

[Bl4cK32]

Run Windows Update...

and....

Do you install codec packs? I've found they can be a real pain in the arse; some completely screw the video playback and even after uninstalling they still leave it stuffed.

3rd Party... I find I only ever need/use Xvid and Divx.
