It ran really well for me, though it was quite low resolution so I'm going to go back and see how it copes up a little higher.

Hmm, how much memory do you have on your card?

I only have 320mbs, whilst 640mb seems to be the recommended spec.

Runs fine on my 320mb card. Have to have textures on medium, though. Shaders, Post-Processing and Objects are on high and the framerates are decent enough.

Yeah same here. I just want every setting on high or higher :lol:

Damn you Fista.
Tisk tisk. If you havent got a dx10 card, fista uses its weird fake dx9 thing, which sucks. If you do have a dx10 card, it needs moar power for making it super shiny, even though it's super shiny anyway. :? It's just slower on fista. They probably optimised the fista parts less, knowing most gamers are still on xp.

just had a go on it and to be honest, i wasn't dissapointed. because i got what i and everyone else was expecting. what i was expecting was something pretty (i have to play it on low and it still looks pretty good) but nothing much to it. what i wasn't really expecting was that it's just far cry made prettier. i had an enormous feeling of deja-vu when playing it, and the new functions just don't change anything to the samey experience. i didn't feel free at any given time, i couldn't even swim to the boats if i wanted to. offcourse, when you play on higher settings it could make a huge difference. i don't get the moving planty bits and other speshul things. a good-looking tech demo, and that's it. but that's just my opinion. with a game like this, only chicken's opinion counts. :P

Er, that's funny. I was also expecting something pretty with nothing much to it, except instead I got MAXIMUM AWESOME. I didn't like Far Cry at all, but I like this.

I actually found this to be an enjoyable, decent game, but with a few annoying quirks.

You will know of the Chickenz soon enough, once he stops being a console tard and gets back to pc games and TS.

You'll regret having to know him, but you will know him. :lol:

He's a big, faaabulous Scotsman.

I could actually just have said he was a Scotsman, the rest was a bit of a tortology.

:above: HARD.

Where 'HARD' applies to the bumming and to show my agreement.

Did anyone else cringe at the intro sequence? A cockney called "Psycho" and a "Directed" credit. This is supposed to be a game not some lame action movie. This may have been the first impression that inspired my hatred of the game before it even started.
