GhostofAnakin Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Who were the Munroes again? The game just crashed on me and I hadn't saved in over an hour I was almost at the end too... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The family that the mayor wants you to "deal with" before she'll give you the keys to the stronghold.

Darque Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 IWD was the better of the IE games when it came to crashing to the desktop problems. Never happened. BG2 was more of a problem with me in that regard. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How odd I've only had two problems with BG or BG2 ever The first was a weird bug that occured because they didn't increase the flag timer when they made TotSC... reaaaaaaaaaaally messed the game up if you did too much. I had to kill the demon boss a dozen times before I gave up and found out it was bug related The other was a lock up... but that turned out to be a problem with my powersupply... which ended up blowing up my old comp
alanschu Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 I chose the Fallouts because they are sad and depressing settings to begin with. Plus mini gun chunks and flame dancing FTW! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Few things are sadder and depressing than the Counterstrike community!
taks Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Are you sure? Your bugs have BG1/BG2 (fully patched) written all over them...<{POST_SNAPBACK}> two points: 1) i never commented on bg bugs 2) the big difference there is that bg certainly had plenty of bugs, but it also had, if you played it right, a hundred or more hours of play time. this game is supposedly only 20-30 hours and i've only been in it about 4 and every quest i've touched (almost) has had issues of some sort or another. professional doesn't mean bug-free. taks comrade taks... just because.
taks Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 keep in mind, i'm not laying down a "don't play this crap" mandate... this effort was done by a relatively small group of people and they did do a fine job (so far) with the story... it just needs work. mostly scripting errors (it would be hard to have an engine error anymore). i will continue it when they fix them (i don't want to finish the story while trying to battle errors) taks comrade taks... just because.

Llyranor Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Did your mind suddenly blank out Hades or something? (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
Dark_Raven Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Did your mind suddenly blank out Hades or something? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My mind is a blank at the moment. What a nice mod DOD appears to be. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Deraldin Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 The family that the mayor wants you to "deal with" before she'll give you the keys to the stronghold. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Oh them! Head Northwest of the town. Right by where you entered the area.

GhostofAnakin Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Speaking of which, I might scrap my current game and start over using a fighter. All the weapons I seem to be collecting along the way are those my rogue/assassin combo can't use.

All the weapons I seem to be collecting along the way are those my rogue/assassin combo can't use. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah. I was using a short sword called Starfire or some such that was only +1 but had 1d6 fire and DC 13 flare on hit for most of the game until I found a +3 1d6 ice short sword about an hour from the end of the module. I had 250k gold and nothing to spend it on. <_< I was using a Rogue/Fighter in a 2:1 ratio for levels. Beat the module as an 8/4 Rogue/Fighter. Had an armour class in the 40's and did on average 14 damage or so per hit. Averaged 34 with my constant sneak attacks. :D
GhostofAnakin Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Ha! Starfire's my current sword as well. I can't use most of the other swords (including the one that blacksmith crafts).

GhostofAnakin Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Mine was some fancy longsword. Or was it a bastard sword. Regardless, it was pretty damn good, but I didn't have the proficiencies to use it.

steelfiredragon Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 i got stuck in it for a moment, but its a very good module Strength through Mercy Head Torturor of the Cult of the Anti-gnome

It does look good otherwise... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That was something that caught me too. Load times were damn good till it hit around the 80% mark where it would just stop for at least a minute. I found myself ignoring areas just so that I wouldn't have to sit through the damn load time. <_<
taks Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 (edited) same here, and i'm using a 7200 rmp sata with a dedicated scsi controller (only the primary drive uses it). the game stutters a bit, too. mark Edited August 23, 2006 by taks comrade taks... just because.
