[quote]WOW does pretty damn well in china... I think it has like 2 mil in us, 2 mil in china...[/quote] Where's the other 6 million? :) http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=17062 "According to Blizzard, WoW now hosts more than 2 million subscribers in Europe, more than 2.5 million in North America, and approximately 5.5 million in Asia." More like twice the USA subscriber numbers play in china :)
[quote] Is it really the Games For Windows thing? Because several games I know of that are certified GFW games have save folders uner My Games, Gears Of War is one that comes to mind right away (it stores under My Games\Gears of War for Windows), as well as Crysis. Edit: Hey look what I found, Per requirement 1.2, the main game and autorun executable must have the execution level of asInvoker to support Standard User conte
[quote] Oh my god, I'm SOOOOOO irritated that this game doesn't support 1280x720. It says it supports widescreen, and it does, but only a very limited set. Wake up to the 21st century Stardock. [/quote] The problems is not the maximum. Its the minimum. my 1920x1080 support IS 21st century support. You could make an argument that they aren't programming for the lower end HD, only the higher end :) But I think they should have made the minimum
Bumping this since I didn't see it on 1.02 patch notes :(
[quote] Perhaps the problem is that Sins does not support resolutions with less then 768 vertical pixels. Correct. Even if you can force the game to 1280x720, it would be messy (if it works at all). The resolution needs to be at least or more than 1024 wide, and 768 high. Simply having more total pixels won't cut it if one or the other dimension is less than the min. If you're on DVI-D (as opposed to analog-over-DVI) though y
Short answer: Its almost certainly because of Microsoft. Microsoft has a long list of things they require if a company is going to get the "Games for Windows" logo thingy. One of which is how and where your settings and savegames are stored. Companies are starting to try to adhere to these kinda things more so they work equally well on vista and XP. Longer technical answer: Partly because vista changes locations of a lot of things. Part of it is also security, since Vista suppo
Also, remember to click update before you try playing it. There's a 11 meg patch already for retail.
Yeah, your HD set is only 720p. The higher HD stuff is 1080p which is 1920x1080 resolution, which is higher than the 1280x720 of 720p stuff. Is it only the game that can't fit entirely on screen, how about normal Windows stuff like web browsing or email? If normal Windows isn't all on the screen, thats the TV's fault. If thats the case, the nvidia has a screen adjustment thing that you can slightly shrink it to fit on your TV screen. You may be able to do this even if its only the g
[quote] hmmm , seems ok for me... [/quote] Yes, but you probably are able to change modes whenever you like. I'm not. Would it have any negative effect on everyone who CAN change modes successfully to increase the timer and give them a few extra seconds they dont need to click ok? :) And
The timer for sins changing graphical options is too short. Its something like 5-10 seconds, and it would be great if it was closer to 30 seconds :) I have a fairly decent machine (AMD 4000+, 8800 GTS, 1 gig ram, XP SP2, 1920x1080 max details) and still sometimes when I change graphical settings (like just going to or from a window setting) it times out and changes me back since I wasn't able to click keep settings in time. I imagine lower end users would have this issue more often.<br/
