Clicky for install (steam://install/18110)

I haven't played a new game in months, need something different. Anyone up for some benchmarking multiplayer?

The weekend I finally decide to downgrade back to XP and they do this?

Oh cruel irony.

Edit: I could always stuff W7 onto an extra partition and then just delete it once the weekend is over.

Edit2: You know what, fuck it. I'm having a harder time dealing with XP then I did with W7, I might as well just reinstall it again.

I got this ages ago, turns out there's no Australasian servers around :\

I am so disappointed this game doesn't have a singleplayer story mode. It could have such a badass story, too.

I still plan on reupgrading to Win7, but this should hold me over for the weekend. Now bow to me mere humans, for I have done the impossible.

Game looks awesome, and very spoony lol. I meet the recommended specs, you think Ill get a good framerate though? I'm REALLY tempted to buy this, maybe just play it free for weekend and maybe buy. :D

I'm running on minimum specs, it runs fine with a few things turned down.

Turned down? I wanna run it max! (on 1280x1024 :D)

If you've got recommended specs, you could probably run max settings at that res (dunno about AA).

Yeah, I'm downloading the game right now (using free weekend jobby), and giving it a whirl.

I just released, the new forums don't have the computer specs module :(

I'm running at 1680x1050 at every setting maxed. Looks great!

This game is crazy, just played my first game and wow I'm pretty dizzy actually.

The game reminds me of the battleroom from the book Ender's Game. Seems like a really good tactical shooter, too bad I suck, I would love to play some organized games.

Can you invite people in-game? We should find an empty server and get everyone in thar.

You can join your friend's current server through Steam, I don't know about inviting though. I'm assuming you can.

Also this game would be better if it had more than one weapon :s

^That too. Zooming in is a joke.

The secondary fires are pretty cool, though. EMP is probably my favorite to spam about.

Fun, but the lack of weapon variety makes me sad :<.

Finding some awkwardly located firing position and sniping from there is fun. Wish you could attach yourself to floating debris and actually stay attached though, I couldn't keep myself attached to crates and such for very long before it would let go of me.

You have to hold Shift to stay attached, I've had no problems attaching myself to anything.

It's taken a bit of getting used to but once you get the hang of this game it's a pretty fun casual laid back shooter...

You don't. Please support Microsoft by buying a copy of Windows Vista or Windows 7.
