Just got it today

JasonSK · 03-19-07, 12:54 AM

Got it from my buddy at ebgames, yup, I know, before it hits the stores, crap happens.

Just wanted to say, the screens you guys see? Ya, they were not photoshoped like I thought, REALLY amazing effects, the 1 major failing is there is NO AA, I have tryed everything I can think of and I cant get AA to work.

But I will admit, as a graphics artist, I am really impressed with the filters, I can just spend HOURS looking at how pretty this game is, to bad its impossible to play, I dotn like reading manuals adn for the life of me I cant figure out how to fire torps rigth lol.... aw well. this game tho.. its going to to be a 5 star game easy, the grahpics are AMAZING.

Hopefully we will have a AA patch soon

Welcome to the forums, Jason!

Glad you are enjoying the game. If you don't mind, would you please take the time to post which city you got your copy in, inside the "SHIV is in my hands...." sticky above? We are keeping an ongoing list of where the game is popping up.

Thanks!

Guess I'll just have to live vicariously through this forum.

He posted at 9:54 pm and probably went to bed, but even graphic artist have to eat ... so maybe he'll be back.

JasinSK where are you?

I hate manuals too ... FSX and I get along real good without a stinking manual.
If I can't find out what I'm doing wrong online ...
I wouldn't need the internet.

I work at a computer store and i got it last night, yes AA works, make sure u have it manned and press space bar to fire (not mouse button)

EDIT-LOL

Oh i thought u were talkin about the subs anti aircraft guns(AA) not Anti-aliasing, yes it doest have that, but it supports high res, like am runnin @ 1600x1200 max graphics on my 8800 GTX and its so gorgious i played 3 patrols last night before i had to go to bed. IN my 2nd patrol i went up against a task force off the coast of honshu, and sank 2 BBS luckily it was hvy fog and i had Surface Radar. Tons of DDs i was lucky, killed a tanker 2 bbs and a light cruiser. However one of the bbs got a lucky hit on me while i was tryin to find him via radar in the fog, killed my entire deck/look out crew. Man this game roxs. My dad cant wait for his copy which i ordered for him off of amazon(they would only let me have one copy at work)

That was great. Perhaps all AA complaints should be handled this way?

Kind of aggravating when somebody comes in and tells us he just got the game b4 the rest of us do and then goes away, leaving us hanging.

Oh well.

Do you live in the USA? If so could be good news if USA Stores already have the game and are waiting to release day.

Congrats on the *early* acquisition!

I have copied your first post into the "I have SH4 in my hands" thread already.

Yup...I think Neal should send a memo.

Hope you're enjoying the game mate. Not jealous at all, no, not at all.
