sounds like it's a lot of fun based on you guys, can't get it till Sat due to work, so will have to wait. but people already finishing it doesn't bode well for length. is it replayable at all?

I haven't slept since I got it so though it's short, it's not THAT short. Roughly twelve hours between when I got home and when I finished, although I obviously wasn't playing the whole time.

And yes, absolutely. I intend to play it again at least once. :)

As much as I want to play this game on my PC, I'm not too keen on paying $59.99 for a primarily single-player game. I'm aware of the co-op MP game modes but to me, that isn't enough to justify the price. It'd be a different story if it had a MP game mode like team death match.

imo, team death match has been over done in almost every FPS out there. Soo glad Epic/PCF didn't go that route for this game.

Well, I think it would've been nice to have it on top of the co-op MP mode. It would add a lot of replay value to the game.

Turns out it's not on Steam. pfffffft

It's available in North America: http://store.steampowered.com/app/99810/

As for Europe, I think it'll be out on the 24th or 25th.

Well one of the modes it has is called Echoes. It is a condensed version of certain scenes in the Campaign, and you go through it and get a "High Score" for each level. The whole point of the mode is to see how good you can do with the Skill Kills It then has leader-boards to compare to your friends list, etc. The level I checked out in the Demo was about 15 minutes long give or take, so seemed really good for re-playability and quick consumption so to speak.

Picked it up yesterday and played a couple hours today. Great fun. I love just being able to run around and shoot enemies without having to give much of a **** about my health. Skillshots are what makes doing that fun. Game looks fantastic visually as well and the dialogue is hilarious.

so anyone know how to get rid of mouse acceleration on the PC version yet?

Does your mouse have any kind of drivers or app for it? If so, you should be able to override any game settings. That is what I did with my Logitech mouse. I just use it's settings and not the games.

With that said, I only saw a setting for mouse sensitivity, not for acceleration.

Kick ass, thanks for this, I just bumped up the FOV a tad, nothing crazy like they did.

If anyone needs that BulletstormINIeditor file they mentioned, here it is...

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36855/BulletstormINIeditor.zip

Oh and a little tip, you need to run it as Administrator or it will not allow access to the directory with the config files...

Yeppers - definitely outta the Duke Nukem school (the language, that is).

And to those that say *how DARE a game have Salty Language!*, did you happen to notice that rather obvious M on the ESRB rating meter?

So I just experienced a game stopping bug. Literally I could not progress because of this bug. I had to start from the beginning of the Chapter, really sucked. Not just me either, I found an entire thread on Giant Bomb about it...

All I will say is if you are having issues with a dropping platform and not being able to proceed, it is the same bug.

Information about the bug can be found here...

only fix is to restart, someone earlier in that thread mentions an action prompt, they were wrong. I tried that about 15 times to no avail. Sucks, as I basically wasted over an hour from getting to that part, then trying a good 15 minutes to see if there was something I was missing, to having to restart the chapter over. Apparently it is not just a PC bug either, it affects all versions.

I'm confused, I searched a bit and understood that it's only out in NA (Steam), so how is it even possible for UK based users to "pre-load" it ? You can't even see it..

I'm not from the UK and I reckon I'm not from Europe either.. but this is truly sad ;( I wanted to buy this game and I get shafted like this..

I guess I will eventually see it on Steam, like GTA IV, but it'll be too late for me to buy it..

Not all games can be pre-loaded before release day - I'm not sure why. I assume it's whatever Steam and the publishers decide.

Bulletstorm is a bit weird though - the game doesn't show up at all if you're part of the Steam beta program.

    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last week, Rockstar revealed Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will be starting soon, and just a day ahead of that, now the studio has announced the official pricing for the highly anticipated game. This has been a hotly debated topic among fans and industry veterans for a long time, considering the game is expected to be the biggest entertainment product launch ever. The confirmed pricing for the Grand Theft Auto VI standard edition is $79.99, which Rockstar says gives access to the "single-player experience set in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet." This follows what most of our readers thought would happen with the pricing too. At the same time, a $99.99 Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition has been confirmed as well, which lands with "an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story." Pre-ordering will also give fans extra bonuses, including a Vintage Vice City Pack of cosmetic items as well as a free month of GTA+. Head to the official website of the game here to check out all the cosmetic rewards the Ultimate Edition and pre-orders bring. Interestingly, the studio does not mention Grand Theft Auto VI multiplayer at all in today's announcement. Perhaps this will arrive later, following the campaign launch, or the studio is keeping that reveal for a later date. Digital pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will begin on June 25, 2026, at midnight local time across regions for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The title is slated to launch on November 19 on those same platforms. Pre-loading for Grand Theft Auto VI will kick off on November 12, giving players a week to get the game ready on their consoles. As for the physical edition, Take-Two has confirmed that this will be available without a disc, with the box only containing a download code inside. This will be purchasable starting November 12, giving players who take this route time to pre-load the title as well.

    • Anyone Here With Turbo Pascal Experience?

      By Almohandis · Posted

      Turbo Pascal was my first real programming experience more than 30 years ago at university. I mostly taught myself from the included examples and help documentation, because the university only taught the basic syntax and philosophy of Pascal, without going deeply into Turbo Pascal’s advanced features. I still remember when I discovered that I could embed assembly language directly into Pascal code, call BIOS functions, manipulate screen memory, use mouse interrupts, and control peripherals from my programs. That opened huge doors for me. Programming back then felt really fun, direct, and close to the machine. What I loved about Pascal was its readability and the almost instant compile time. Turbo Pascal was an amazing environment, but unfortunately Turbo Pascal for Windows 3 did not feel like it fully carried that legacy forward. Later, Delphi got things back on the right track after the messy transition to TP for Windows. Sadly, Delphi suffered from years of uncertainty as it moved from Borland to CodeGear and then to Embarcadero. That instability made many developers lose confidence in it, even though Delphi itself remained a powerful and productive tool. I still work with Delphi from time to time, but I definitely miss the old days of Turbo Pascal.
