[QUOTE=Riutet;32146033]So is there text chat in that there wrong build?[/QUOTE] Yes, you press enter, but at the same time it gives you 20 arms and the ability to climb walls like Spiderman.
i love the game. so what if it has bugs like that, just dont use them. the only problem i have had so far is connection issues every now any then and rage crashed to desktop :(
Since when did you get to decide if you want to use the bugs or not?
Well then I prefer to not use bugs! Suddenly fixed version!
Switching to single player seemed to fix my serious lag issue. That's...odd. Also just had my first crash after breaking into a door in one go :v:
From my first hour with this game, playing single player, I have to say it's been quite enjoyable. The game looks beautiful (though my eyes really don't like the bloom), and overall I've only crashed once. Not bad for a dev build. The combat also feels very fluid, which is good especially when they focused on melee. When the real release version is out, I'm sure the game will be much better, but as it is now, it's still worth it.
I don't have the game yet, but I was wondering if it had split screen for consoles. I googled it but I'd like to get a confirmation since the game is actually out now.
Was just wondering, but does the beautiful trailer music play in the game at all?
It reminds me of borderlands.
Well considering how all the attention is focused on the apparent PC Dev version I'll let everyone know how the Console version is. EDIT:When I get it tommorow hopefully.
Well, at least I got Space Marine to distract me until the game is patched.

Played for about three hours just now. Then it crashed, but I highly suspect that was a problem with Steam since Steam crashed at the same time. Really, it works shockingly well for a dev version, and I honestly would not have known that I was playing one unless I read about it before hand. There's a little bit of stutter -- I normally run at around 50 FPS or so, but occasionally the game will just pause for 3 or 4 seconds -- but on the whole I haven't run into any big issues. Combat is fantastic, as expected. Most of the time, it's very atmospheric as well... until you start considering how absurd it is that you'll drink energy drinks and eat snacks no matter where you found them, including in blood-soaked bathrooms. :v: Also, I pre-ordered from Greenman, but I seem to have gotten the Ripper. Don't know if that's a glitch or something, but I'm not going to complain.

It's not a pre-order exclusive so you could have obtained the schmatics legitimately.
Holy shit, the pure, unadulterated rage on the SPUF is absurd. They always prove their idiocy, don't they.

Just said "You got the Ripper schematics!" or something, and bam I had them.

Oh well, have fun with that crazy thing once you put it together! I made it at level 4 and it pretty much rips limbs off of anything it touches. Also what's this I hear about SPUF raging? I'd look into it but that place just.. eugh, it screams ignorance to me most times, that and I can't be arsed to go search through all the shit posts.

If anyone wants to add me on steam and do some Co-Op later (as in after the patch) send me a PM :buddy:
So anyone want to take some landscape screens using noclip?

They call fucking EVERYTHING a console port. I shit you not. Go to any recent major release's forum and "console port wahhhhh! i demand a refund! wahhh!" It's just painful.
so where's the cheapest place online to get a activation code right now for USA? I was sent to Intkeys in another thread that they were being sent out, but just spoke to their customer service and they said another day or two before keys are sent.

They are basically the definition of "obnoxious over-entitlement", and think that the only reason anything gaming-related is bad is because of consoles, even when it is blatantly not the case. Although I do really want to know how the fuck Techland managed to completely miss the fact that they released the wrong build to the public.
so...how is this game anyway? well I am a little bit disappointed after I watched the gameplay, since it is totally different from what I saw at the official trailer.
4chan's /v/ and all of its offshoots hold the crown for elitism imo. SPUF aren't elitist, they're just idiots. I've never seen a community more elite than /v/, who has actual members that think RO is casual because rifles are "one-shot" kills.
So how is it?

People really go there only to piss off each other.
