Just play ... the only reason to install it over is to play SP ... and you will need to patch it
Yeah, I have this weird error every time I start the game. It's totally innocuous and I can still still play the game, but it's annoying and this should fix it up.
Also, as Judgement said, the movies are not there, which I would not mind seeing.
I'm not happy about having to patch though...

Can't even patch ATM though cause the servers are down.
Yeah I know, but I just watched the intro movies (very cool) and I have to go out in an hour anyway.
I was hoping to get some playing time in, but oh well.
KT
Did you have any problems with the voices in the intro movie? I couldn't hear them unless my speakers were cranked up.

Did anyone else pre order this game from the EA store? It takes the registration code, but it is declining my pre order code.....

EA getting their hands on this game was bad enough. I pre-ordered a hard copy from Amazon UK rather than risk EA messing things up.
Guys- I played as an Engineer in Beta... only got to about level 5 but he was rather weak, nothing compared to my Marksman. The slowing Drones were cool but the combat Drone was useless. Is the Rocket Drone any good?
What are you guys doing to your Engineers to make them useful?

lot of skill points into accuracy
as many points into slowing drone as it allows... combat drone is cool after it is hardened ... healing drone isn't much
Level 7 Engineer MaximusRex ... attempting the Brutish Museum
--i think i am a little low for this one-- no it is NOT as fun the third time thru
back tomorrow ... bedtime ...

Good morning,
Does Hellgate offer wide-screen resolutions?
What kind of hardware is it going to take to get smooth framerates?
Did a search here at the Anandtech Forums, didn't see anything at the Hellgate website.
Thanks,
PCM
Their mistake then, although the reviews I have seen thus far echo what I experienced in the demo...that Hellgate London will appeal to diehard Diablo fans, but the rest of us, not so much.I suggest you read this thread very carefully. The Demo did not in any way shape or form, provide the gaming experience of anything close to the private Beta. Alas, basing a decision on this Demo is a sad thing. The HG:L guys shot themselves in the foot by releasing a poor demo.

since the demo sucks ass, how can one experience the "true" game without actually buying it?

The actual game can't be that much different from the demo. Did they completely redo the graphics, animations, sound (weak weapons and cheesy voices), repetitive click-click gameplay, crappy monsters, boring level design, and clunky UI?

Pretty much
the only way would be to enter the beta - if it is still possible - and i think they leave it up for another few days to give people time to get their retail copy.
i believe i have a key left

In the demo you throw them 100 yards away, they bounce like crazy, and you can barely see them.

so are you agreeing with what he is saying? I thought you really liked it?
I'll try the key if you want to give it away. couldn't hurt to try.
