Ghost9 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 (edited) I thought I would make a seperate post as I think my issue is more specific. THe game does NOT respond to the keyboard right away. and then when it does respond it acts like buttons have been stuck. WHAT IS THE DEAL? did i waste 50 bucks or what? In it's current state it is unplayable for me. It's not video stuff either cause I set everything to ultra low and it didn't change anything. It's not just inside the missions either. When I go to type in my name in multiplayer login it takes for ever for what I type to show up. I have a microsoft intellitype keyboard. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Ghost9 Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 oh and when i try to play anyways, the movement is so lagged i have no control, and when I try to regain control my computer beeps at me like i'm pressing too many buttons. I'd sure like to know how I could fix this. I had high hopes for this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost9 Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 I went back and tried the demo and have no issues on that. Is it possible that I got a bad copy of the game? Should I go return it and try another? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost9 Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 (edited) Is there really only three people having this issue? I got the DVD-rom version if that makes any difference. Edited May 5, 2006 by Ghost9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uk.Cobra Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 ebgames sells the DVD-rom most of us got it from ubi cause it was sopost to come out early but it didnt so we got the damn cd-rom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slakteKnut Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I went back and tried the demo and have no issues on that. Is it possible that I got a bad copy of the game? Should I go return it and try another? ← Just got my game today(dvd version) and have tried out the domination mode. the buttons Ive configured on my logitech g5 mouse have the same problem you are talking about. i did not have this problem with the demo expept for that mousewheel bug wich is already known. Use this mouse every day when playing RO so I know its not a problem with my mouse, its with the game. Gonna try with my old logitech dual mouseman later today to se if theres any changes. This game needs some serious patching !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruin Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Mine runs similar to that, and the best thing I can think of is that I don't have enough RAM. I have 768M and they give a minimum of 1024M. So I'm below par on that, and think that it's part of my problem. What are your PC specs before we start accusing the Devs/Game here.

Ghost9 Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 (edited) It's got nothing to do with RAM or vid cards. something is screwed up. I'm starting to think maybe it's the DVD version. I'm going to see if I can't exchange it for the CD version. My specs: ATI RADEON X850 XT 256MB 16X PCI EXPRESS AMD ATHLON64 FX 55 CPU w/ Hyper Transport Technology ASUS A8V-E Deluxe VIA K8T890 Mainboard 2048 MB (1GBx2) PC3200 400MHz Dual Channel DDR MEMORY Corsair XMS Western Digital Raptor 74GB 10,000RPM SB Audigy 2 ZS Windows XP Professional Microsoft intellitype keyboard 1.0A logitech mx518 mouse GRIN please don't make me wait until june!

Ghost9 Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 well i can't exchange it for the cd version. looks like i'm outta luck. guess i wasted 50 bucks. Hopefully they won't wait until june to fix this stuff. I was looking for instant gratification, not a long term investment. this blows.

Ghost9 Posted May 6, 2006 Author Share Posted May 6, 2006 (edited) tried contacting UBI and they just gave me the generic "it's your problem" response. i've tried everything under the sun I can think of to fix this crap. nothing works. and it's only in this game that it happens Edited May 6, 2006 by Ghost9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eclowes Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Same problem here. All drivers updated, everything working fine except for in this game. Maddening, spent more hours trying to track down this problem than able to play the game. Does everyone who is having this prob have the DVD version? I do, my friends who got the game on CD don't. Specs- Athlon XP 2500+ 1 gig Kingston Hyper X PC3200 ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe MoBo Radeon x800GT 256meg PCI Zboard Keyboard Logitec G5 mouse and a couple Seagate Barracuda PATA drives I ran the demo version flawlessly.

Ghost9 Posted May 6, 2006 Author Share Posted May 6, 2006 I think it may be the dvd version. And I'm stuck with it too damn it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclowes Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Easy enough to find out if there is a bug in the dvd version, 4 of my friends got it on CD, I'll borrow one of their copies and install and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclowes Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 OK, DVD/CD version same problem, but while doing all the disk swapping I did discover this- when I run the game from a shorcut on my desktop or wherever, I get the massive lag. If I use the autorun on my drive and put the disk in and run it from the play link on the splash screen that comes up, it runs fine. Have verified this works many times and have been enjoying the game fine. If you are having this leyboard/mouse lag issue, try this technique and see if it works for you as well. Im guessing there is a glitch that makes it try to run 2 seperate instances of the game or something when you start from desktop shortcut. I dont know, but I do know this has worked perfectly for me. Hope this helps someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost9 Posted May 8, 2006 Author Share Posted May 8, 2006 this did not change anything for. Nothing I've tried or that has been suggested to me has made any difference. I can still run the demo without any kind of problem, but the Full version still has this absurd delay in reading my keyboard. And it won't let me do anything else until it processes the keystrokes. I would really like to be able to play my game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost9 Posted May 8, 2006 Author Share Posted May 8, 2006 have the other people who posted with the same issue found a fix for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost9 Posted May 8, 2006 Author Share Posted May 8, 2006 A guy in the ghostrecon.com forums posted a possible fix for the keyboard lag. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee/forums?a=tpc...2144#1121002144 I can't try it until i get home from work, but if it does work, ROCKY you might want to put it in the problems identified/fixed post.
