Yes. Maybe, but the freezes only happens in AP. I tried to increase the fan speed, but nothing helped.

Hi - and a tech topic! I've some serious stability issues with Alpha Protocol. I start the game and everything runs just okay, after a while (random positions) the game freezes - then, about 20-45 seconds after it continues (fast forwarding the missed animations while the character talked). You can play normally, then freezes again and it continues like this. Of course, the intervals between the freezes is random: sometimes 1 sec, other times 30 sec, but short periods. Other times, instead of freezing the screen display... odd textures. Screenshot link: http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x291/Tp...00-06-36-42.jpg That made me quit the game, and the desktop looked like a mess too: (I didn't quit AP this time but I had to be sure to capture the moment). Usually, killing the game works just fine and the desktop remains normal. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x291/Tpiom/screen.jpg It's having all these strange dots. The "dots issue" happens in World of Warcraft too after a few minutes of playtime. As always, my system and drivers are up-to-date. The manual says Windows 7 is not supported but "Readme" through the launcher does so. . .

I think the important part was that Sega is supposed to handle support, not Obsidian. Head over to their forums, and by all means, if there's no support you can make a big stink. ok so what your saying is that publishers provide support over developers??? hmm you are a true noob The publishers always handle that by default. They also decide if/when to make patches. Of course, it is possible for the publishers to ask the developers help out or handle the support. It's the publishers' game. They decide what to do. The developers develop. The publishers take care of the rest.

The game is not "released yet". Obsidian is a studio from the States, the release date there is the 1st of June - 28th of May in Europe. Although, it might be done on purpose too as Sega is supposed to be handling the support.

Released 28th (Today) in Europe. 1st of June for North America.

An 'unfinished' game? That's pretty hard. It's true! I've been playing it for... 2h+ and I've had more glitches, crashes and other weird stuff going on for a while now - I'm going to wait until Beta Protocol comes out - a MAJOR patch. It's unplayable for me.
-
I just got through the customization part, and my experience has been horrible so far! The game doesn't run smooth at all, screen lockups/freezes etc, two BSODs, and then after some seconds it continues. My computer is more than capable enough to handle it. The animations are all funky sometimes, AI is idiotic, tutorial level a... Took me 30 minutes or more to get through the computer-hack part - as it was slow to navigate down to the thing and it was confusing and hard. The graphics looks like an old PS2 game. But to the good parts: lines and voice over so far, and the lines I have yet to experienced (before a freeze - I lose focus when one comes. Forgot what they were saying the minute before). The choices are all cool to smash down or open a door, the talent system is awesome, that's how RPGs talent system should work, the dialogue system is... ok I guess, you have to pick almost before you have heard the dialogue. Not a second to think what they just said. The music is interesting, sets the mood fine! This, better get some heavy patches. It feels like playing a beta. Despite all of this, I'll continue to play and finish the game - then I'll post a review or something. It's a strange thing the game is not Windows 7 ready. The manual says XP or Vista. . . Good thing to know I'm not alone

Same! I looked around on some other sites too - found three main categorizes of user comments: * Looks like (add another game here) * AI/Graphic is bad * Interesting... I'll keep an eye on this. I, personally, find this interesting, and good for AP - a well developed story/characters/gameplay will get you further than look in the long run. Not to slash Bioware, but I didn't find it (ME) interesting at all - it was basically the KotOR story in another universe - however, it had the look (and a decent story) so people got it. Anyway, my point is that if the story is good enough (no negative comments about it so far) then it will break anyway! A good twist will get your game far! Um... Does AP have a twist?

Hello there! I'm not sure if this thread is placed in the right section, if not, then excuse me. I have a few questions about how and when the developers are paid. So here they are: 1) When are the developers paid? After/before/during or meanwhile the development? 2) If a game is cancelled, does the developers lose anything on it, like money? Or is it all on the publishers? 3) How much does a daily game cost? 4) Last, but not least - how much of the profit goes to the developers? (related to question #2) I hope some of you can clear this up for me, thanks in advance!

I suppose you could try to cheat past this, not sure if it will work but it's worth a try. write: warp 950cor (as you would with any cheatcode) If you don't know how to use cheats, then this is a good guide: http://knightsoftheoldrepublic.filefront.c...fo/cheatskotor2. Thinking that TSL_storymod and jedi_temple_expansion might conflict with the game's story.

Well said. If the MMO sells good (and it probably will) there will be no reason to make a 3rd game. Really well put Feargus.

Chris Avellone interview at StarWarsKnights.com
Lord2 replied to funcroc's topic in Obsidian General
How can they complain about Kreia?! She's one of the best (if not the best) character in the gaming industry, I call her the: "mysterious witch" I really enjoyed that you swayed away from the "typical" Star Wars telling, and gave the villains something more than power and control to fight for. It's not truly Star Wars, it's just happens to take place in it's galaxy - I think it's a very interesting idea Thanks for sharing your story with us, Chris. Great interview! *throws a cookie at Llyr too* -
Yeah, sorry for this clumsy intro - but a podcast would do great, or a company blog that you talked about. It could be learning experience and changes in the company from the start until now, what you guys want to in the future (what kind of games...), what will happen to gaming industry. It really doesn't matter what you talk about, I think it will be a fun thing both for the audience and for you. You could also improve your relation to the community (even though it's already great) by answering fan questions in the podcasts

Rob huh? I haven't seen any show or played any game he has composed for. It will be fun to hear something unique for once, he better be good
-
Hmm, where have I seen these before: Kristoffer Tabori and Grey DeLisle. They must too love Obsidian's work. (They voiced in Kotor 2 too). Courtenay Taylor voiced in K1, all of them seems to be typical "game voice actors." Anyway, they have talents - looking forward to hear them again!

What's your opinion on Alpha Protocol?
Lord2 replied to pcrk2's topic in Alpha Protocol: General Discussion
I say a very good one, because it seems (like TSL) it has some annoying mini-games. If I recall right... The story seems cool though, and the combat system is great. -
Well, I updated the driver on my AMD processor and got a utility called Dual-Core Optimizer. Installed both, restarted and the game has been running just fine for like 20 hours now...
-
Hmm, first of all I want to tell you that my computer runs kotor 2 just smoothly. I've tried it before without any issues, haven't changed anything. But last week I re-installed WinXP (kotor 2 too) and now all these black figures just appears, the character is all black. http://s187.photobucket.com/albums/x291/Tp...nt=untitled.jpg It comes and goes, but it's really annoying! It could appear at random to be active like 3 minutes, and then disappear and everything is normal then reappear again. Operating System: Windows XP™ Professional (x86) Language: English (Regional Setting: Swedish) System Manufacturer: to be filled by o.e.m System Model: to be filled by o.e.m BIOS: Default system BIOS Processor: AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+, 3DNow (2 CPUs) Memory: 3072 MB RAM Page File: 333MB used, 4623MB available DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904) Display Mode: 1280x1024 (32 bit)(60Hz) Display Driver: Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT Approx.

Kotor3: Ideas, Suggestions, Discussion Part 26
Lord2 replied to SteveThaiBinh's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
After this MMO announcement, does this mean a KOTOR III is long gone from our sight? I want to know the story, not raid stupid Sith bosses or anything - I despite MMO games. But really, I'll support WoW to knock out this MMO. -
Do they have something in common, like same character/world or anything like that?
-
Does the rest of the saves work? If so - upload it somewhere and post the link here, I'll see if I can load it.
-
It's LucasArts' fault that KotOR II was incomplete - they rushed Obsidian. That's too bad, and now they're planning a MMO with Bioware... Oh my
-
Yea, the deleted/lost scenes for Episode V and VI must be found. I would like to see when Vader takes Luke to the Emperor, from the shuttle - or when he force persuades an admiral to see the emperor... And later, I think the admiral is killed by the emperor's guards.
-
I think you need to raise your memory, 502MB is not much for the game. Don't trust the recommendation, I also suggest upgrading to Sp3 (that makes the system faster - could improve the game speed too)
-
None... Pay to play a game is rubbish, just companies way to make money. Look at WoW for example, how much have we got (almost nothing) compared to the money we've spent. Remember, we ALSO paid money to buy the expansion pack so I don't count that - exclude that! The only good thing with MMO's is that they're being updated at least, and bugs (serious errors) are rare because of the maintenance.
