November 24, 200520 yr Tremere my dear. They are much more civilized plus they have those neat blood spells. Bloodlines is a demanding game when it comes to hardware. My ATI 9200 on my other computer ran slow graphic wise, while this computer ATI 9500 runs better and quicker. Oh and make sure you have the patch installed. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There is something to be said about making people blow up I figure I'll go all out and get a ATI 9800... I figure that'll do the trick ... I may still need more RAM though.
November 24, 200520 yr I experienced a quite noticeable difference going from 512 to 1024MB...faster load, faster transistion and generally less stutter too. (Signatures: disabled)
November 24, 200520 yr Both computers I mentioned have 512MB. I thinking the slow graphics and load time for me had to do with the graphic card.
November 24, 200520 yr In my opinion, Bloodlines totally redeemed Troika to the claim of being the creators of fallout...before that I was really annoyed by that sentence, when looking at games like Arcanum and ToEE. (Signatures: disabled)
November 24, 200520 yr Bloodlines is very good if you have a computer that can handle it. That said plus there is a lot of replay value since the character clans are well developed. Edited November 24, 200520 yr by Gabrielle
November 24, 200520 yr Am I the only one who even TRIED gangrel? Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
November 24, 200520 yr I'm a vampire snob and tend to stick with the classier clans; Ventrue, Toreador and Tremere. "
November 24, 200520 yr I'm not a snob, I just take them one at a time and haven't got around to that one yet...but it's a rather slow proces that takes time to dodge the feeling of being fed up. (Signatures: disabled)
November 24, 200520 yr Both computers I mentioned have 512MB. I thinking the slow graphics and load time for me had to do with the graphic card. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I might get by without more ram then I think I'm currently at 512
November 24, 200520 yr Am I the only one who even TRIED gangrel? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's my #3 choice
November 24, 200520 yr Hay guys, I'm playing through on my first time with a Toreador male. I'm still early in Santa Monica - what stats/feats should I pick that are useful later on? I currently have high beauty/charisma and a little skills in lockpick and hacking. Also I hate how the way I can be running along and out of the blue the game freezes. Spreading beauty with my katana.
November 24, 200520 yr What skills you want all depend on your playstyle. All are useful in their own way. Well, maybe not subterfuge and appearance, but the others are. I might get by without more ram then I think I'm currently at 512 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I wouldn't advice it. I've heard from multiple sources that performance really improves with 1GB. It's still enjoyable on a sub par computer, my first playthrough was on a laptop with a dated graphics card and 512mb ram and I liked it. But there were horrendous loading times and a lot of graphics lag. On my current setup the game ran much better but since this is a different computer it's hard for me to say what caused the biggest improvement. Edited November 24, 200520 yr by Spider
November 24, 200520 yr Thanks - I was seriously thinking of bumping up appearance and spending like 8 points on my 3rd rank in it. Spreading beauty with my katana.
November 24, 200520 yr The very end is pretty combat heavy - just make sure you either have some reasonable combat or stealth skills to get through it by that stage. On 1Gb RAM, don't even hesitate. Given the prices here, I assume you can grab another 512Mb in the US for <$50, which makes it the best value upgrade you can get. It will make a big difference to Bloodlines.

November 24, 200520 yr Hmmm... I guess I will get some more ram then... I was going to get some eventually anyway... but more later than sooner Guess I'll make it sooner now
November 24, 200520 yr I always liked to play a Ventrue, classy, smooth and if words aren't enough open up a can of whopass on whomever didn't listen to your friendly "advice". The last armor for the Ventrue is pretty sweet too, a coat like the one Neo uses in the Matrix, except red.
November 24, 200520 yr Oh and make sure you have the patch installed. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Where might one be able to get this patch?
November 24, 200520 yr I think they mean the fan patch, which if you look around at rpgcodex news posts, you'll find
November 24, 200520 yr I think they mean the fan patch, which if you look around at rpgcodex news posts, you'll find <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Fan patch? do you mean those unofficial post 1.2 patches? Edited November 24, 200520 yr by Surreptishus
