DL DEHR, the bundle. from steam, and the two older games load and run OK, BUT NONE of the Human Rev will load or play in less than twenty mins. When it does finally load. the audio and video are so schetchy that it is UNplayable. Like droppng frames in a 128K card, and the audio is broken to pt of not understanding any of it.
That said, my gear is A-51 Alienware (Dell), 6 months old, but:::Quad core Intel@3.2 , 6 Gb Ram@1028, nVidia 580, and HS_ISP@6mps UP/1.5 Dwn. Still the game is like molases on cold moring. Steam help is NON existant, Vale NO HELP on weekends, and having only the Denver server available, that I can find. Any clue on what may be the bottleneck? My system plays all other games, in EQ the resourse hog, andDungeon Siege 3 w/o issues, other than the bugs in the codex. When I first DL DS3, the same issues were there and it was somehow cleared up after a few weeks waiting on Steam. Really HATE being beholden or required to use Steam/Valve to play a gmae I paid for, even the discounted price. That said, the older games might justify the purchace, as they are replayable, even if you know what is going on. Several possible endings and choices you make allong the way will change outcome.
Q!uick commment on Morrowind, Elder Scrolls series. HUGH world, good story line, continuity among the expansions, (do not have Skyrim), and replayable for weeks, if not months. Great graphics, good audio, decent story line and lots of quests and side quests, tasks, etc to keep you going.
MAIN issue here is WHY is DE:HR and the expansions on Steam, Denver server, so incred slow and unplayable? WHY is Steam so reluctant to have help available on weekends when most gamers are online, IMHO.
Thanks. jdvmsr@xit.net
