gebraset Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Got the demo downloading right now. Hopefully it turns out to be pretty decent, since AA3 is having a real hard time doing any good at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoArmistead Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Downloading Demo. I haven't been very psyched about this game so far. Hopefully I'll like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhenKittensATK Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Looks like I need to redownload it Keep getting this error when I try to run: "the program can't start because X3DAudio1_6.dll is missing from your computer. try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." Reinstalled it a couple of times but still get the error . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reinstalled it a couple of times but still get the error . Same for me... not promising . At least EA's stuff installs correctly and crashes on the first launch. This one can't even install right.

LoArmistead Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Redownloading the demo through Steam to see if this one works. What is it with people not being able to release a working game anymore? First Empire Total War, then AA3, and now Arma II. Argh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoArmistead Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Let me know which is better The Steam version won't launch either. it doesn't give me the .dll error, it just gives me a crash report as soon as I click the .exe. Oh well, I wasn't that psyched about it anyway. I figured I'd give it a chance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrow21 Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) Hey Lo, I found a fix for the demo.. http://www.gamingsa.com/forums/showthread.php?p=79351 Seems DirectX wasn't getting installed. Edit: Wow, this game looks incredibly bad. Buggy, no option to turn Vsync off (aka slow mouse movement; at least in Dead Space you could turn it off), and has so many things wrong with it. THAT'S JUST THE DEMO! Edited June 26, 2009 by tkrow21 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhenKittensATK Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) Thanks that was it. Updating DirectX http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...;displaylang=en This game kicks my 8800 GTS butt. Time to save up some money for an upgrade. Depending on how I like the game. 15 FPS on Very High and 30 FPS on High.

LoArmistead Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Good find. The DirectX update did the fix. I don't consider myself an idiot, but this game seems overly... complex... or should I call it unrefined? So far I'm not impressed. I'll wait for an update.
