I can tell you right now that this game is way better on the PC than on consoles based on controls alone. I'm more comfortable with a mouse and keyboard anyway! So happy! I am going to play by myself as roland and with my friend as Lilith so its a win win all around!

I am getting some tearing, when I turn left or right quick I can see a split in the center of the screen a bit and also like vertical splits. Really bugging my eyes out, don't see any capping options in game so I enabled them in Catalyst, but only helped a bit. Any ideas here?

Yeah already tried that along with triple buffering, helped a bit, but still seems a bit funky. I'm at college right now, gonna check my refresh rate when I get home and make sure it's on 60 and not 59.

Beta tester? Thats how it always happens when you beta test though.
no, not a beta tester. I work in the hardware compliance division of 2k... i tested this game when it was still alpha.

Very entertaining game thus far, only played for about 30 minutes, but I gotta say I am glad they executed it the way they did. So far it's pretty damn fun, and seems to be a pretty solid shooter, haven't tried coop yet, but I gotta say thus far SP is pretty damn cool.

Yeah fun game so far, still having issues with tearing. Turning from left to right fast I get lines that that run almost the whole screen across, they then travel up, it's like a wave of pixels that runs up my screen.

at a guess, its either Vsync or AA related.


cant give any real ideas, as i dont have the game yet (it may also be crossfire related, i get nasty flickering with crossfire on and vsync off, and with games that have broken Vsync support it doesnt go well)

Speaking of AA, I tried forcing max AA and it doesn't seem to do anything.

From the Steam forum:
Enable V-Sync (Stops screen tearing)

Open:

For me with my 4770s at 1920 X 1200 its fine, just I suck at gaming in general....

I saw a couple other interesting lines in that ini...dunno if they'd be safe or useful to mess with. For now I'll enjoy the game,

Just on a quick scan though:

bDisablePhysXHardwareSupport=True (probably not useful at all tho)
UseHighQualityBloom=False
CompositeDynamicLights=False
MaxMultisamples=1 (I am gonna mess with this one, see what 8 get's me..this game could use a touch more AA imo)

This game has my interest for sure though, I'm having a blast so far!

I just intalled it and apparently it didn't like my graphics card, monitor, or both. It defaulted to 640x480 with all low settings.

The game does look pretty crappy on my 17" CRT (the interface feels cramped and unfriendly). I'm thinking this game was intended for widescreen.

I won't actually start playing it until I play some more Tropico 3.

Yeah, FPS games really bug out my eyes, so that helped a lot, but still I get headaches from them, with the tearing I could literally only play for like 5min.

Yeah I told Marineborn I was gonna stop playing since he can't play till Friday, I was level 7 when I said that, just logged out as level 10. Might mess around as Mord, but Roland is a lot of fun, will be amazing when turrets are on a shorter CD.

I doubt I will be using a sniper rifle if I play mord, the hand guns were a ton of fun, gunslinger looks really cool.
