After having months of no problems with Battlefield 2142, I've started getting quite a few weird happenings in-game, over the last couple of weeks. Such as:- Stood near a missile silo as an engineer when the prompt comes up "(my name) teamkills - Zeller Sniper rifle". Since when does an...

^^^^^ - STALKER is a shining pinnacle of software quality testing, compared to Battlecruiser 3000 though! Anyone ever try that piece of turd? My god. I actually bought it too. D.

Depends what you're after, m8. If you're after gaming, probably not. About 95% of stuff is written purely for 32-bit anyway, so XP64 makes little difference. There is a small, but steady supply of developers supporting it now though - that and dual-core processors too. Still rare though. The...

I agree with rich - it is p1ss-poor that within such a very (very) short space of time after release, a major patch comes out for it. And as he says, there's no way those 68 issues have 'just appeared'. More likely, they were under the kosh from THQ and needed to get the damn thing released -...

Deletes all your saved games? FFS?! That will prove popular.............not. What happens on the next patch after this one? Will it be a case of loosing all the saved progress again? Bad, bad design and planning that. D.

Chiller - C64 - I can still hear that bloody tune now! More recently - the original Homeworld on PC. Brilliantly atmospheric.... D.

Unfortunately not, Chris. I put about 20 minutes into it when it first came out, uninstalled it and never went near it again. It was pants, imo.... D.

Cool :) I'll have to check this one out then.... D.

Is this any good on the PC, does anyone know? I've noticed on the shelves recently. Thumbs up or thumbs down? Cheers, D.

Wasteland - C64 Battlefield 1942 - I played the demo before it came out, over and over again. D.

Quit your yacking or I'll biatch-slap you with a rusty keyboard and mouse.. :rasp: It crashed on me on Saturday again. Probably becuase I hadn't closed down BF2142 in the background (don't ask). I was amazed that the gameplay didn't seem to suffer - I think it was a chronic lack of memory...

Definitely recommended James, though I got the impression that it removes not just tar, but literally anything else on your car such as wax or polish. You would ideally reapply these afterwards. It helps enormously too, if your car is a lighter colour. On my previous car (using AG TR), the tar...

Quality responses, as ever chaps..:approve: The AG Tar Remover sounds like a good idea. I still have some from when I used it (with great results) on my Punto. The tar specks literally just ran off. Cheers, D.

The Beast3? With dual 8800GTXs, I presume? ;) D.

Rich, I remember you saying the same on my other thread last year. I wonder if (for whatever reason?) the paintwork itself is pretty crap on the surface and has been 'hidden' by layers of wax or some other coating before I had the car delivered? Again (as if to further prove this) Jain used...

When will I learn? :mad: After recovering from last year's fiasco (http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=135061&highlight=clay) I had the 'bright idea' of trying it again today. Everything would be different this time though, or so I thought. I read and re-read what I needed to do...

Widescreen? Ewwwwwwww! ;) Gimme 1280x1024 anyday..... D.

Added some pics below...... ^^^^ - spinning dogs in vortices? Dodgy goings on in Chenobyl. ;) D

Wait, wait, wait...... what's the rush? If you're after playing games on the PC, then at least wait until they get most of the issues with Vista sorted out. I'm still happy as a pig-in-muck to continue using my DX9 dual 7900GTXs and either XP32 or XP64. There's just no rush (or need) to...

^^^^^ - it is supposed to be chronic on Vista, Roy. From what I've heard, your problems are quite light compared to others. It must be bad if the developers themselves are admitting that there's a problem with it & Vista. D.

As I've said before - it would be great for developers to not only support quad-core, but quad SLi-too. Imagine having dual monitor support thrown in too - say BF2142 with the squad/commander screen open on the right and your on-foot/FPS view to the left. Proper multi-tasking.... :cool: The...

Absolutely brilliant attention to detail! http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/Animator+vs+Animation+2/ D.

^^^^ - aye, and it's static-camera-central up there too. Gits! :) D.

Was that the one that had that truly terrible flying bit in the middle? Aside from that, it was a brilliant game. They should have dropped the flying bit and just kept it FPS. D.

Manslaughter charges on the way??? "....sorry guv - fair cop. I just had to smash little Timmy's head in front of me as he got the last telly" D.

I think it's a grower. If you give it a 10 minute bash and decide then, I think you'll miss out. Imo, of course! D.

Here, here! :cool: D.

Hmmmm - patches are needed, developers! Had another go last night. Bloody thing rebooted my PC - not even a crash to desktop - lol! D.

Hi m8! Sorry about that - I didn't even notice! :o I'd gone to PC World off Junc.6 and then filled up on the V-Power (hence Salmesbury). I thought about heading back into to town, but a blat along the carriageway was preferred.... ;) D.

Feck Gareth - that's high! Good job it was an Intel CPU - an AMD would have been a melted blob at the bottom of your case by then. ;) I'm running high-40s normally. If I've done an hour or so on BF2142, it will be mid-50s. The GFX cards fair better - usually mid-40s regardless of what I'm...
