I got the DX10 version of the demo running from the X64 bin file, so 64bit and DX10 in Vista 64bit and it's amazing!!!

I've got it set to low though becuase my 8600GTS sucks :)

has anyone else thought of getting an 8800GT the new one thats just come out? and is much faster than all versions of the 8800GTS and just a margin off the 8800GTX?

i like the way in the DX10 version you can shoot trees with the boat and they fall over and crush things, man I'm buying it too :D

Seriously a good reason to upgrade to Vista if only for this game, or you could do the patch thing above

I'm getting a 64 bit vista version atm, just bought a new pc and damn xp can't take over 2gb ram + i'm sick of the same old blue screen bs

you guys reckon i will have any chance of running this on medium with 4 gb ddr2 800mhz, asus M2N-E Sli and the 6000+ dual core with only a 256mb 7600GT card? Cards are insanely expensive, a 8800gtx costs the same price as the pc cost me (450)

it should be able to run it on medium (depending on what res you have it set at). the only thing holding you pc back is the video card, the 8800gt should be out over here soon and it should be fairly cheap.

Hmm, do you think it's worth my while buying:

640M 8800GTS Generic/Leadtek/Gigabyt /ASUS $452/$489/$499/$499

Or i should just wait for this 8800GT to come out?

defiantly wait for the 8800gt they are way better than the gts and almost as good as the gtx, and also they should be cheaper than the gts when they come out in a week or 2.

Game looks off tap, especially in the scenes when everyone is talking, faces look real as, my pc runs it ok on medium graphics and can sorta manage on high but, definitely will need a new graphics card to use FSAA and high res on medium, high/very high settings (i ran mine on medium with 1024X768 and high on 800X600 high was pretty laggy at parts)

Only problem is the crosshair.. when u zoom if you have iron sights instead of accuracy sights selected (default u do) it's really hard to shoot, even if u line up the little aim thingo on the gun

awesome game! absolutely crazyyyyy graphics and physics and I love how you get different powers using the suit's modes. Amazing scenery and its pretty fun to play... pretty much same as Far Cry was.

As for performance... well I tried running 1920x1680 (my monitor's natural resolutaion) with all quality details maxed out to Very High including anti-aliasing 16X however it was running fairly choppy. So I turned the Anti-Aliasing to 4x and set details to High and it ran smooth, while still looking incredible.

    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
