Gibletz Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Started, attempted to play it, but it's so unbelievably buggy. I mean it crashed when I hit tab to switch input fields.. and instead of loading the training field game, it cycles the intro over and over again and requires a forced quit, terrible game. Has anyone gotten this sack of fail to even run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹ Posted June 17, 2009 Subscriber¹ Share Posted June 17, 2009 Switched over download region to Singapore and managed to get the remainder of the game. Sadly it is just as bad as the closed beta, all I get is a black screen on launching forcing me to Ctrl Alt Dlt and close the app (which shows as not responding) I did mention this in the beta forums and it was not even acknowledged :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibletz Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 /uninstall I got to the training mission, but the performance is abysmal, oddly enough I can run Unreal Tournament 3 Engine games just fine, this is the first and so far only one to not run at decent frames.

Lannister Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Getting a black screen too, but after a minute or so it gets to the log in screen. Shame it won't let me log in though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konstanov Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Once you get into the game, you still can not play the game. Because the U.S. Army did not allocate enough of it's 500 Billion dollars per year it gets to buy some damn servers. So the authentication server is down and you can't do the training.

SuperKid Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 wtf was the point of preloading on steam if i have to download 1.5gb more? BSfinally got a connection to a server with a average of 220kb/s download. so ... still waiting. :| Huge fail with the entire "preload" bs.

SuperKid Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Black Screen, nothing happens, yay. Alt+Tab out of the game then back into it and wait then it will load eventually, but fail tbh with that lols. If I wait a minute or so the game continues, but I can't log in. Did you go on the register part first then activate your new AA3 Account, then upgrade your AA2 onto that AA3 Account? you HAVE to do this, even if you registered on the website!

Sethos Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Well, I couldn't get past login so I decided to do Offline mode, tried various training ... Are you kidding me on the graphics. This game is based on Unreal Engine 3 as far as I know? The game looks horrible! Even when the game was based on UE2.5 it looked better. The characters look like something out of a budget game, the sky is low-res and dithered, environment is SO bad, weapon models are almost as bad as the character models and I did bump up the graphics to the absolute maximum. This is just a very quick impression, hopefully gameplay will lift up the game ... when the game is working in a few days / weeks :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoXY Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 People are complaining about the graphics? But all the trailers looked pretty good and they weren't prerendered as far as I can see. I don't understand :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argi Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Wait a tick, AA3 is like 4 gigs. I wasn't aware Australia had that kinda net connection available? If you downloaded 4 gigs in 10 minutes, I'm officially moving to Sydney or Perth. Because we don't have unlimited bandwidth here, our ISPs provide our with Steam Content Servers which are unmetered (and we can max out our connection from them). That's why piping was such a bad feature for us because we'd often connect to a bunch of non-ISP servers too (I use a program called SteamWatch to block this), which would slow down our download. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
