Whenever I try and open it to play, it won't open. Got to try it out on my brother's computer.

[whooping_a_panda]

great demo, short though it took me maybe 10 miniutes... ran surprisingly smooth on my GF3 at 1024X768

[plague]

mines not opening either - anyone figure it out???

[12am]

Like the installer isn't opening or the game itself isn't opening? if the installer isn't opening you can try redownloading the file, that might solve the problem. Alas though the game won't run for me, I'm getting this msg General protection fault!

History: ResetDevice <- UD3DRenderDevice::SetRes <- UWindowsViewport::Exec

Sounds to me like the game is having a trouble communincating with my vid card, fired off an email to ubisoft, awaiting a reply now.

[CPFitz14]

my installer isn't opening, i'll redownload later.

[wildbilly2k]

anyoen have crackling in there sound after there first shot is fired

[Johnny Knoxville]

wow this is the coolest game i've ever played :cool:, but the graphics suck, why are there so many jagged edges :mad:

edit: and it just crashed on me :mad: :mad:

[baqai]

damn it took me so much time to download that thing on dialsuck and it tells me that the file is corrupt :(

[wildbilly2k]

taht sucks and there are many jagged edges but just think this is like a beta i bet when it comes out it will look ten times better and if you ahve a gf4 ti or radeon 9700 it will look and run great

[TheFrag]

imma go test it and compare to my x-box demo.

[TheFrag]

OMG IT IS UGLY! FREAKIN MAKE IT DIIIIIIEEEEE!!!!!! the x-ox version is so much better

[Johnny Knoxville]

yeah the X-box version kicks it's ass, well teh demos ass anyways

[wildbilly2k]

yeah ill be glad when the full version of this game comes out so i dont have sound problems but it is crashign on alot of peoples systems so all the kinks are for sure not worked out and da graphics are for sure going to be beefed up with anti aliasing options and **** like that

[Ottoman]

what do u mean jaggies?

just increase the resolution

[wildbilly2k]

yeha i ran mine at 1600x1200 and i got about 3 maybe 4 frames per second so i have to deal with jaggies until christmas but it looked super smooth when i did

[Gizmo the Cat]

i'm pretty excited about this game, sortof like metal gear solid for the PC, only better :) i played it on a friends Xbox and really liked it, it looks to be even better on the PC! how good will the multiplayer be?

Gizmo

[wildbilly2k]

you think there will be multiplayer?

[TheFrag]

doubtfully, no real way. Co-p would be sweet, though.

[12am]

I agree, there hasn't been a good co-op game in years.

[wildbilly2k]

halo is a good co op game but it is not going to be out til march i think

[X2sandman]

somthing is wrong with my mouse, it stays to the bottom of the character, and when i try to move it so i can see it just jumps back. even trying to change camera views does nothing.

[Batman@]

Splinter Cell looks bad ass for xbox, it here sitting right in front of me, but i'm not allowed to open it till christmas but thats only 5 days away!!! also, I have mech assault and xbox live kit for christmas, I cant wait!

[Batman@]

Just downloaded, it installed fine, but wont let me play, it says its looking for something in a G: Drive, I dont have a G: ! :mad:

[Oni]

Pulling it in now @ about 220Kbps (I love filemirrors/getright :D)

From what I've seen on TV and whatnot, it looks really dope. I'll give it a whirl.

[Ottoman]

my only complaint DEMO IS TOO SHORT!!!

i love sneaking up behind a guy, grabbing him round the neck buring the tip of the silencer in his temple and interrogating him... then pistols whipping him out

[baqai]

man reading all these comments is making me jealous :(

i am again trying to download the file (15% done till now) i seriously hope it isnt corrupt :(

[Oni]

baqai, do you use something like Getright? I would, if I were you. The ability to pause downloads is great!

I played the demo a bit. I like it. It has all the cool creeping around of Hitman, w/ the killing of Quake! :D

[baqai]

Oni yeah i have been using getright and dap (switch between them on and off) for quiet some time, i don't know if its problem with DAP (which i used to download it from fileplanet) or it was problem with fileplanet's file

i am downloading it again its nearly 58% done going at about 3-4k/sec ..

i think the best thing i learned being on dialsuck is patience :)

[CPFitz14]

Man, I've downloaded it at least 3 times, and still can't get it to work, anyone want to post some screenies so i can :drool: a little:D

-CPFitz-

[Ottoman]

okie, i'll see what i can do

[baqai]

okay finally i managed to download it and it was not corrupt yeahhhh !!! just installed it and it looks so coooool !!! damn stupid relatives are at my place so i can't enjoy playing the damn thing *grumble*

CPFitz14 try downloading from the link from the first post of this thread it worked for me the one from fileplanet turned out to be courrupt both for me and my friends as well

[CPFitz14]

I d/l ed again from the first link. Still didn't work. Anyone know where I can get this besides filefront?

-CPFitz-

Also, is Halo coming out for the pc? I wish it would come out for ps2.

[baqai]

okay i played for a lil while and man this game gonna seriously rock, yeah its kinda sluggish on my pc (running at 1024x768 2x FSAA)

i am having one wierd problem though at times sound starts to act wierd its starts hissing and this totally untolerable squeeking starts this also happened with me in hitman2 i think it has something to do with EAX i have sblive value by the way

Halo should be coming out for PC and MAC sometime in 2003, prolly beginning. I hear the main point is to get peopel to buy an x-box and play Halo 2. I love Halo and if it is a good port, will deffinantly get it for PC just for the resolutionj options. O ya, and the mouse, although it had the controls down, which I think contributes to why it was so good.

[baqai]

CPFitz try searching on www.filemirrors.com

[Digital Pimp]

i agree the demo is short, but it's good and leaves you wanting more, tho i noticed that it is just a cheap port from the x-box version. if u press esc during gameplay and search through the controls (i forget which ones) it tells you the x-box controller keys. like "quick reload is the white button" and stuff like that.

tho the game looks great, the night vision feature dosent light up the scene as much when compared to the x-box version.

Digital

[wildbilly2k]

it was funny i was in the last part of the mission and the two guys are sitting at there putters typing away so i grap the first guy and pull out my gun and i have him and the guy says dont shoot and the other guys shoots him it was sad so i just plastered the other guy in the face and then the guy came out fo the security room with his gun and shot the guy i had again so i shot him to

[XyKo]

thsi game look good. when will the full come out?

[Jon]

Well, I had absolutely no jaggies and I thought the game looked great. Can't really say this demo lasted long enough to justify downloading 100MB, but it was a nice sneak preview I guess.

Not really up my alley as far as games go, but for those that do like this sort of thing, I'd have to say it's going to make you happy. :)

[wildbilly2k]

i finally got the hang of shooting lights then they come check and it is a nice easy shot in the face to them


and i like doing the wall splits thing in the first little set of cells

[Ottoman]

where? and how? do u just double tap jump? hold it down?

[wildbilly2k]

well where the cells are in the very beggining you just face the wall then jump jump again and then hold it or just keep tapping and you jump from one wall to the other o the other and land in the splits it is very cool

ooh ya it has to be by the brick to

[Ottoman]

ahh now i see... it's sick.....

and i foudn a couple pipes u can grab onto as well...

but man that pistol is innacurate....

[wildbilly2k]

you have to wait for it to get all the way in and afte that wait 2 more seconds just to be sure then shoot that is how you make it accurate i wish it was just a little more accurate though

[baqai]

how do you grab a person ??? i finished the stage typical deathmatch style :D

Edit : oh figured out how to do it :D , the level is very short and i just can't wait for the game now and no offense intended, i think it would be more fun than MGS

[wildbilly2k]

yeah i wish they could just send a copy to my house now i have played the demo through bout 60 times

[baqai]

do the people get up when you hit them with the butt of your gun? and can anyone figure out what's the secondry fire for ?

i would like the option to leave the person after interrogation instead of hitting him with the butt of my gun and option to kill a person in that posture would be fun too :D

[Ottoman]

yeah then it wouldn't have been rated Teen :P
