January ??? Oops :"> Translate that to February when it's written on a friday afternoon and the drinks have started to arrive here at the office... I meant February.

IIRC, the talk was of a february release. Then a december release. Turned out that some versions of the game were to be released early (december) and the rest as originally expected in february. I could remember wrong though, I didn't really follow the project that much after it was renamed from Project Delaware to Kotor2:TSL

Nah. The nice guys at LA already changed the release date from Feb. 2005 to Jan 2004 for various reasons (xmas sales, 2004 game awards etc.). No need to change it more. Thanks to all the beta testers out there, I'll enjoy my game once it becomes available In the meantime, I'll just wait patiently and occupy myself by playing Pirates!

My avatar most be growing then, it's 64x64 pixels

South of Amn and Tethyr... you can just spot the upper half of the name down there towards the bottom.

try asking a developer how long it takes to write a class/function/method whatever...

Have you tried the latest drivers for it ?

Ah yes, Visc was the lead designer of Kotor2... :-"

Odds are, they are busy working on NWN2 now. A few might be left to do some adjustments for various PC configurations (different number of audiospeakers, different screen resolutions etc.) With a tiny bit of luck, they will also fix the top 5 games stopping bugs making the pc/internatiol x-box a version 1.01 or some such...

well pc kotor1 was a bit smoother but just as buggy and didn't look as pretty as the xbox version. with the lightsaber most noticably the beutiful glare and bloom of it. in the pc version they looked like X's Sounds almost (from your description) as if you made the same mistake as I did on my first run throug the game. Once I discovered that little toggle button under advanced video settings it became a very different visual experience. It made the x-box version look somewhat outdated by comparison.

And that entitles you to deliberatedly trying to destroy this thread by posting flamebait how ? My life sucks, therefore everybody elses have to suck too ? The original post was funny, so was Oerwinde's, sadly it only takes one troll to ruin it...

Not sure that would qualify as humorous...

Not sure what it has to do with "ridiculing", but then, I'm not very sensitive to religious matters. Having read the Bible, I know that there are some funny passages in there although I can't remember them from top of my head anymore

What bothers me here is that they aint talking about your usual grain here... :D Sounds like bad xxx stuff... and the guy got divinely nuked for the crime of failing to... ehh... nevermind :">

Already released (December) in the US for tne x-box. Everybody else (pc users and x-box users outside the US) in February.

I just bought Pirates today on dvd, cost me 5 dollars more than the cd version (because the slapped some "limited edition" label on it). Can't really see why more multi cd games can't be released the same way :cool: Would love to see Kotor2 on one cd. Even better with no cd check...

Funny, Nalia/Viconia is back

Never had a single problem with performance issues on my PC version of Kotor... Og course, I also managed to play all the way through the game the first time with all frame buffer effects off Played through it 6 more times with all effects on as well as a 1280x1024 resolution. I tried higher resolutions, but it didn't improve the looks, so I switched back. Loading times were not noticable at all. The only technical issues the engine gave me were two cutscenes that crashed the game to the desktop. Trial and error revealed the resolution to be the problem. Changing to 800x600 during those two particular scripts solved that. Mildly annoying but not overwhelming. If Kotor2 performs similar, or at least not significantly worse, I'll be a happy gamer.

I'm not really that much into internal north american politics, but doesn't that sound like, erh... thwarting the purpose of seperation of state and church and freedom of (and from) religion etc. ? >_

Stop!... STOP!... PLEASE???... >_

Heh, yes, that is exactly the opposite of what I was thinking of. I don't appreciate the "relatively" long load times and waiting for games that runs off their cd's/dvd's. I still have a handful of very old games that doesn't have such a thing as full install. They have been converted in the virtual cd images now, much to my relief. Especially Master of Orion 2 would create a constant whirring on my drive because it plays the ambient music of the cd... :p" I occasionally buy "protected" movies from Amazon.com... Something in the menu software of the dvd's checks your drives region setting. If it is region-free (can't remember if that one is RPC-1 or RPC-2) then it refuses to play the movie. It even refuses to work on software players that runs the menus...

It would be nice if they just put both in the box. At least, if they are going to put X number of cd's in there anyway. I definitely prefer to just put in one disk, run the installer, put everything on my hd, then archive the original disk somewhere away from greasy fingers, sunlight etc... Oh, and I do have a couple of DVD drives. Damn region coding of movies makes it easier to have a drive for each of your favourite regions (1,2 & 4 in my case ))

Pretty much how I interpreted that part too, yes

Well nice to know. According to the reviewer, Bioware is currently working on the followup to the game I would say, there is some credibility problems somewhere in that text...

:D Be nice
