  1. I think that the demo was quite neat overall. The game was almost smooth with my rig @ 800*600 :rofl: ! Sometimes the graphics looked buggy and distorted but otherwise they were nice. The physics were awesome! Only the lack of a proper multiplayer lowered my rating to 8. This all because I'm not a GR1 vet or anything this was just a nice game.  :g_withgrin:

    Not being funny or anythink m8 but if a game is almost smooth and at 800 x 600 res with graphics that somtimes look buggy and distorted I think your very forgiving.

    Here is what swat 4 looks like on my pc running at 70 fps farcry looks even better and runs fantastic.

    Swat4 screen shot

    I know the maps in swat4 are small compared but farcry maps are huge.

  2. Im so glad at least the game play is up to scratch because the visuals are clearly not been shown correctly. Just look at the screen shots to remind you all whats it should have looked like. HERE

    On my screen regardless of any setting looks not even half as good as these screen shots. In fact If I where to load up a 7 year old game and put all settings down to lowest it would be like what im seing but id have 300fps instead of 27fps.

    My point here is that this is not the way it should be so most likly the retail game wont be like this.

    I will post a image soon on what im seeing.

  3. Im hoping that this demo is a early beta version in which case why even release a demo that dont do the game justice. I would not perchase this game is it was based on what visual impresion I have got thus far. If this demo was released 3 months ago then I could relax but iv preordered the game all ready payed for.

    Im sure the guys will fix these problems or have already fixed them between making the demo and the finnished product, I hope!

    6) AI both teammates and enemy

    AI is great so far and men respond well.

    7) Sound

    Sound Is top notch no problems here.

    8) Was your expectation met?

    No

    Settings:

    Texture has no effect on visual or performance

    Texture filtering has no effect on visual or performance

    Effect Quality has no effect on visual or performance

    Dynamix shadows has no effect on visual or performance

    AA od AF has no effect on visual or performance

    All of the above settings apear to not be working hence why the graphics looks very bad. Any resoloution under 1280 x 1024 has bad jaggies. average is 28fps and only has playable at 800 x 600 at 40-70fps.

    Tryed omega drivers latest and same as above.

    The graphics look nothink like they should according to screen shots. Xbox version looks miles ahead. Im sure this wil be sorted.

    Thanks for the demo but was dissopointed as far as graphics go. If the release game comes out like this I would say it was not ready for release.

  6. Im having some very strange things happining here.

    1280 x 1024

    Textures =med

    Texture Filtering = Trii

    Effect quality = High

    Dynamic shadow = high

    Post effects = high

    27-32fps

    ----------------------

    1280 x 1024

    Textures =med

    Texture Filtering = 16x

    Effect quality = High

    Dynamic shadow = high

    Post effects = high

    27 -32fps?

    --------------------------

    1280 x 1024

    Textures =med

    Texture Filtering = 16x

    Effect quality = med

    Dynamic shadow = high

    Post effects = high

    27 - 32fps

    ---------------------------

    1280 x 1024

    Textures =med

    Texture Filtering = 16x

    Effect quality = med

    Dynamic shadow = off

    Post effects = high

    27 - 32fps?

    ----------------------------

    1280 x 1024

    Textures =med

    Texture Filtering = 16x

    Effect quality = med

    Dynamic shadow = off

    Post effects = low

    34 - 42fps

    --------------------------

    1024 x 768

    Textures =med

    Texture Filtering = 16x

    Effect quality = med

    Dynamic shadow = off

    Post effects = low

    1024 x 768 40 -- 70fps (+ adaptive AA + 2x AA ) 40 - 70 fps?

    / 800 x 600 ---56 -83fps

    Texture filtering has no effect.

    Effect quality has no effect.

    dynamic shadows has no effect.

    AA has no effect.

    Only resoloution, Post effects has any effect on frame rate.

  7. DFI LANPARTY UT nf4 Ultra-D, AMD San diego 3700+ @ 2.82gig water cooled. X800XT stock clock speed, OCZ pc 3200 GOLD 2gig gamers ram cl2.3.3.8 @ 418mhz, Sound Blaster audigy PLatinum. Hansol 19" flat 920d monitor. ATI 6.4 drivers.

    Based on first 30min game play.

    Visuals:

    The recomended settings sellected by game is 8x AF ,1024 x 768, med to high settings. The game looks extreemly jaggie that was my first thought. Turning up AF to even 16x had no visual effect on the game or running of it. I turned on AA to 4x and still bad jaggies. I needed min of 1280 x 1024 @85hz + 4XAA for it to look ok.

    You need a very very fast pc to see eye candy. The looks of farcry, Doom3, HL2, BF2 are better for the same settings applied. I dont think that half the settings are realy applied hence why its not looking all that great.

    Game Play:

    The movement is spot on and realistic. Aiming is very nice but you need to be fast so settings have to be lowered as the AI are fast shooters. The game play I speculate will far outway visuals due to performance that it requires from your hardware. If I had to choose between gameplay and what it looks like game play will win as I get bored I fantastic looking games and have no depth and bad AI.

    I will update on this as I play more.

    ###########################

    Iv put on 6X AA and 16x AF from my Catalyst control centre and has no effect on the game at all. IM going to try omega 6.3 drivers.

  8. Ok heres my take on it so far. Its need AA very high as it is very jaggie. The AF dont seem to make any difference at all off or even at 16x. I think after a few patch updates should be fine. For a joke I put the res at 1400 somethink and didnt make much difference to movment.

    Game play is great so far what iv played of it. Aiming is realistic and AI is fast. The gfx look quite bad if im to be honnest but think the game play will make up for it. I dont think that most settings are even being applied so I may be seing it at its worse.

  9. Just tried it. With everything high, it's unplayable. Had to turn off Shadows and put Post Processing to low.

    1280x960@100Hz 8xAF

    Runs ok...seen better.

    That is a joke your system cost loads. 2 512 meg high end cards and still cant wack it up.

  10. @ Daztrek, i know the feeling m8, if my X850XT does the same im gonna be sick.

    Thing is just because theres better cards out now dont mean that the X800 cards are that old. some of us still payed £300+ not all that long ago. Its easy to get into a upgrade frenzy loosing track of reality that most general pc owners would never dream of paying out such money.

    we will have to see I will let you know soon.

  11. OMG get off my ubi DL its slowed down!!

    lol, yep mine is gradually slowing down too...

    12 mins left :grin2:

    4:30 for me ....

    anyone who thinks they will play this game on medium settings with a 9800 is a dreamer :rolleyes:

    Yea looks very much that way. Just hope it sint one of these games where you bring the settings down and the game looks awfull. If my X800XT wiht 2 gig of OCZ gold ram dont like it then im gona be well anoyed.

  12. The first 500 customers who preorder the Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter™ game, in PC DVD-ROM format, between 01/03/2006 and 31/03/2006, will receive their game at the latest on the day of the official public release of the game or else they will be reimbursed the full price of their game.

    This is from the 'Special Offer' "Read Me tab" on UK site. :wall:

    Ok, Flame!

    Yes I had read that after I posted this and preordered. I think it is well out of order leaving a offer displayed when it no longer applys to any current orders. It should at least be shown on the offer itself the dates it applys to.

    They have taken the money from my bank instantly so hope they are going to be nice and send me it out all in good time.

    How ever it does say on my order the offer is included! QUOTE:

    Tom Clancy’s GHOST RECON Advanced Warfighter™

    Special Offer Included [PC DVD-ROM]

  13. Well with UBi offer I dont think they will leave any chance of having to reimburse people giving that any postal system can be a little unreliable at times. Pre orders have to be shiped early in order that UBi dont loose money. We are talking about a hell of a lot of sales here so your get it early than most. Correct me if im wrong but prety sure EB are not alowed to release it early even if they get it early.

    --------------------

    Exclusive Offer !

    Pre-order

    "Tom Clancy’s GHOST RECON Advanced Warfighter™" and receive your game the day of the official release, or we fully reimburse you !

  14. if u have 4x AA why put up the reso.. thats wat i dont understand.. and if u go to resolutions above 1280x1024 AA isnt really needed..

    I always run my games with 1024x768, but have AA at 4x

    I wouldnt have AA at 4x if at that res but was wondering how he could get BF2 to even run that well with his card.

    fedayn What memory have you got out of interest is it gamers memory?

  15. i've an X800XL 256mb and all actual games run fine at high settings with that card (BF2 at high settings with AA4X and AF4X overall)

    so i think that i'll not have problems with GRAW

    How can you play BF2 at thoes settings not even I can? your core is at 400 MHz and memory at 500 MHz mine is at 500mhz x 500mhz at clocked at 520 x 540mhz and still cant reach thoes settings? you must have it at 800 x 600 res or somthink or mega overclocked your card?
