Get your beta key here while they last. You need a decent system to qualify.

You'd better believe I'm all over this!

sweet! Thanks!

30 minutes to go in the fileplanet queue. Have I mentioned lately how absolutely LAME FP is?

**Alec Trevelyan** · 10-03-2007, 02:12 AM

WELL. so much for that.

Forgot Crysis was a DX10 exclusive, and I happen to have the latest nvidia card NOT to support it, not to mention I still run XP, so no crysis for me.

Ballocks, I tell you. Ballocks.

What you couldnt run it? Vista is not even supported in the beta. XP should have ran it fine. I'm running it with a 7900GTX. Even though on the highest settings its laggy as hell. They've got a hell of alot of work to do.

**Alec Trevelyan** · 10-03-2007, 02:41 AM

Completely locked up on my machine...didn't even get to take a single step. Half the textures were just repeated "Shader Loading," and I had to force quit, which took a while and lagged the system for a while after the game was even closed... but seriously? It's supposed to be the flagship game for DX10 or something... right?

**Alec Trevelyan** · 10-03-2007, 02:59 AM

Well I'll be...really thought it was supposed to be a DX10 game exclusively. Works much better on Medium, though I have to say you're right--they've got a lot of work to do.

It's a beta . . . the first time each shader is encountered it has to be compiled. You'll get the temp textures plus a teapot icon while this is happening.

I doubt anyone will be making a DX10 only game for quite a while -- that would drastically reduce their potential audience.

Yeah, the beta is in rough shape. I just joined the last batch of beta keys, and I would have thought they'd be further along. They've got a ways to go yet, and if they're going to make the Nov 16 ship date that means they have to master soon.
