Have you tried tweaking it scooby? Tweaks took mine from a slightly jerky experience at 800x600 to a schmoove ride at 1024x768, on high detail.

A good one to change is the sound quality - you have to be very picky to tell the difference between 22kHz and 44kHz, so turning it down helps a bunch with little noticeable change.

Maus ty for the advise but blueball has my copy of the game or will do on Monday or Tuesday.  Tried messing with it to improve performance, but no luck here.  Too be honest, I think my PC sucks!! Had the same problem with Far Cry demo.

Oh well back to UT2004 I guess!

Cheers.
Balls to you all :)

hello everyone , well i have played a litle now and i am waiting to play more , i agree with bouth sides of not beeing such a good game and beeing a good game , i liked doom 1 and 2 , and it was in the revolution of the age of 3d games , dont compare this game with others , a big 3d game fan like me and i am sure like most of you here will surely play it untill the end , and i personaly dont compare this game with hits like the upcoming Half-Life 2 , or Unreal Tournement 2004 , or even Counter Strike Condition Zero , i compare it with games from the same type like the other Dooms or Half Life 1 and the expansion packs , and it surely beets them , maybe Unreal 2 was a litle better , and Halo also , but its a game that could go in the top 50 , well hope you all enjoy it like i have and will.

OMFG - Blueball, is that for real - will give it a go!!!


BTW, could also get the AlienWare kit on HP to play DOOM 3 at full specs, but would I be happy - NO, just sleepless nights and no wife when she finds out!!! :rolleyes:

In fact - I am thinking of going back to plain old C000unter Str1k3!
Balls to you all :)

There are a lot of decent guys on the servers (try DonD server) and many are making a real effort to use voice comms to promote teamplay and increase the enjoyment of the mod. Some real cool maps (and some boring ones TBH) but gameplay tends to be different each time I play.  You'll laugh at the number of people asking "Where are the cross hairs?" or "Why are there no american/british units in the mod?

It is quite realistic :)

Heartily recommended now if only I could get on the servers more.

The palestra server is sometimes good too

ic where ur coming from scooby :)

I'm not really into stuff that scares me around every corner. That flash light on the gun is really just small spot over the cross heir.  I dont think its lessoned the experaince for me, as it bobs about and makes aimng a touch harder. Also when the lights go out and all u can see is the tiny spot infront of the gun its scarier as u cant focus on any of the darker areas around it.

But thats just me :)

Just had my first experiance of the dog/bull monster. Oh how i cacked myself.
