Nah ..... prefer word of mouth from peeps I 'know'

Busy installing... interesting, most of the stuff is packaged up as .rar archives.

I'll be acquiring it myself tomorrow. Looking forward to play the game. It sounds quite gripping.

I'll not be acquiring it myself tomorrow... i'll see what you guys say about it

I've installed it, trying to play it now but it won't load.
I click on Play and it just doesn't do anything.

*sigh*

hehe, you too? The config tool settings won't stick, and it crashes immediately. I'm busy checking the ME forums at the moment.

Does a splash screen show?

If it does just wait. It automatically checks for an update (the free DLC)...

Takes a while on my 2GB, E6420 machine to load (Vista x64). Music score is awesome...

and this is why /me waits before rushing out and getting a game

This fixed the instant crash for me. Even though I am on XP, not Vista.

Still can't get my settings to stick. 640x480 looks like ass.

 

[medicnick83]

No splash screen, nothing, click play and bam, it doesn't work.

But, i put a cracked .exe in and the game plays!
How FUBAR is that?!?

Hey, its all part of the fun

 

[medicnick83]

You call this fun?


I'm ready to smack someone at Bioware!

How can an original work but a cracked copy does... doesn't make sense.

/me hands gdiza a beer

Nah ........ I don't like the type of fun that makes me chuck things around in frustration

 

[detritus]

Found that the settings tool is fubar, open it, change your settings, save, close. DO NOT REOPEN the tool.

Also, it looks like settings can be tweaked in game as well.

 

[medicnick83]

I'm not like, pissed off or anything, I'm just upset... I really wanna play this man

Sorry, I shouldn't kid like that.

 

[medicnick83]

Ag, whatever... I'm sure they'll figure it out and tell us how to fix it and we'll play and forget about it.

 

[detritus]

At least mine seems ok for now, haven't done anything particularly stressful, just running around and chatting with the locals.
