Heard there's no cross platform feature currently.

What about the coop feature that Xbox360 users have?I heard that it's not implemented in the PC version..and then another rumor said that it might be implemented?Any confirmation on this?

@Silvercrimz
What I meant is the coop feature for the PC version..there were rumors flying few months back saying there won't be coop feature like the xbox360 version

I know cross-platform play is currently not available >_>

Similar to Halo, no? The PC version had no co-op, which really was quite a big omission.

For these Lost Planet, GoW etc etc games, do you need Vista/DX10 to play? Or are they like Bioshock that also has DX9 mode (sorry ya ... I got my 8600gts only few weeks ago, and before that was using on-board video for like 2-3 years so I haven't been keeping track with gaming updates).

Aww..that's gonna suck..I really want the game when I heard the rumours of possible co-op play for the PC version =/

Lost Planet is playable at DX9..you don't really need DX10 cards..it's an optional feature in Lost Planet..of course..with DX10 you get slightly more eye candy than DX9

I believe GoW should have both DX10 and DX9 support..hopefully =S

Well, according to the video interviews i watched, GoW PC does have co-op, and plays on DX9.

Imo, current consoles can't do DX10 like pc does.. so in other words, consoles games ports to pc dont think will be DX10 only.

Cheers smile.gif

Hurrah for co-op play on the PC!

Most of the games I'm currently playing at 1440 x 900..it's HD kuaa...since it's already exceeding 720p...

"Full-HD" seems to be 1080p D:

I'm satisfied playing at 1440 x 900 though..can't wait to see how GoW is on that reso..if my pc can evenplay at nice settings =X

I believe if you're able to play UT3..you should be able to play GoW as GoW is using UT3's engine

I previously had Vsync enabled..but there was still slight tearing..with vsync off..the tearing was not so bad..so I decided to keep it off..plus..less laggy =P

And tried playing co-op using Hamachi, and it did not work =/

My current settings is as the screenshot is..and my graphics card isn't a DX10 card..so there's no AA enabled..since they tie up DX10 with AA feature

My pc specs are as my sig

A newbie question : What is the difference for post-processing display settings?

There's 4 options if I'm not mistaken:
Default
Muted
Vivid
Intense

I've tried -
Default
Vivid
Intense

I don't really feel any difference =S

Ok. I have AMD 64 3000+ (1.8Ghz~), 1.5GB ram and 7600GT graphic card. When I want to run the game, it says that my rig doesn't met with the minimum requirement. Still, I can play it but at the Lowest settings and 600 x 450 resolution.

hmm... this is strife hijacking madman's pc.

i'm running a athlon xp 2500+ @ 3200+, 1 gig of ram, and 7600GS @ GT. i managed to run it at medium settings @ 1024x768, but it was rather laggy, so i put it all to low. still runs fine, with a little lag here and there when loading stuff. going to switch off the map streaming thing later and see how that goes wink.gif

OT : I would like to clarify something here..Hamachi is not used FOR sparrow version only..it can be used for both sparrow and original version

Hamachi is being labelled as warez because many pirates use it! Gawd..seeing how those retards in the Epic forums labelling Hamachi as a warez really pisses me off

Please do not do it here...Hamachi is a legit software and it is not a warez whatsoever...Many pirates USE Hamachi and now it is perceived as a warez software doh.gif
