That's a relief That SSAA must be hell on performance in that case.My backup system:
Atlon X2 6000+ @ 3.2ghz / 9600GSO 768mb DDR3 ( 750 / 970 ) @ 1920x1080p maxed in game settings / 2x AA / 16x AF smooth as butter.
Didn't bother checking the fps but it was very smooth.
Is the engine horribly inefficient? From the graphics I've seen I was assuming any modern machine should run the game fully maxed out. If not then this is a huge fail on Bioware's part.
Those images are broken.
how so?
Also, I love how you can disable the intro's. In under 10 seconds you can launch the game and be playing! Also, I'm just now getting a bit of humor out of my party members squabling with each other.
Just as in KOTOR, all NPCs in conversations are voiced, while PC lines are not voiced. There are several reasons: first, it would be redundant with the line you just read as text; second, it would severely limit player RP and control; third, it would be prohibitively resource-intensive (three races, two sexes... you do the math, and that's assuming no distinction between the origins so that the street thug dwarf talks just like the noble).
Game doesn't seem to be working for a lot of people, the Steam preloads seem bugged and won't run. It doesn't help that Bioware doesn't have a DAO support forum and all the help threads are being deleted by moderators without any explanation. Really driving me insane right now.
What kind of DRM does this game have?
An extremely restrictive form known as Steam. It often glitches out and prevents people from playing their lawfully owned games for several hours at a time, then randomly starts working again. People are already having trouble with it, but there is no consumer backlash against this DRM because the community fawns over the company that created it.
Well, I was hoping for a non Steam option tbh. I don't mind buying games, but I do mind having to put up with silly restrictions on things I've legally purchased.
Actually I'm not sure if the boxed version uses Steam, hopefully someone can let us know.Well, I was hoping for a non Steam option tbh. I don't mind buying games, but I do mind having to put up with silly restrictions on things I've legally purchased.
How is everyone purchasing this? Recently I have been only getting games from D2D and steam because of some good deals. But if I'm spending full price I might just get it at best buy.

Q9300, 4850 512mb, 4gb DDR2 800 for short.
